Three-Dimensional Stress Analysis of Rotating Compound Cylinders

Stress Intensity Factor of Radial Cracks for Rotating Disks and Cylinders using Average Stress Method

This article utilizes the average stress method to obtain the stress intensity factor of rotating solid and hollow disks/cylinders containing a radial crack‎. ‎It is assumed that the cracks are located radially at center‎, ‎internal or external radius of the geometry‎. ‎Results are shown for both of the plane stress and plane strain assumptions and are validated against the known data introduce...

Automated analysis of three-dimensional stress echocardiography

Real-time three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound imaging has been proposed as an alternative for two-dimensional stress echocardiography for assessing myocardial dysfunction and underlying coronary artery disease. Analysis of 3D stress echocardiography is no simple task and requires considerable expertise. In this paper, we propose methods for automated analysis, which may provide a more objective a...

Three-dimensional optical transfer of rotating beams.

Systems in which the point spread function (PSF) is a rotating beam have increasing use in three-dimensional (3D) microscopy and depth estimation. We analyze in several ways the 3D optical transfer function (OTF) of Gauss Laguerre modes and rotating beams. This is based on analysis of 3D OTFs of general aperture functions. Consequently, we suggest a criterion for depth resolution based on an ef...

On Approximation of a Three-dimensional Convex Body by Cylinders

New results on approximation of a convex body K ⊂ R3 by affine images of circular cylinders, parallelepipeds, hexagonal and octagonal regular (and some other) prisms are obtained. Two of the theorems obtained are as follows (V (K) denotes the volume of a body K ⊂ R3). Theorem 1. Let K be an arbitrary convex body in R3. There exists a regular octagonal prism an affine image of which is circumscr...
