چکیده

We study the buckling of thin elastic plates caused by residual strains concentrated near a free edge. This is a model for plant leaves and torn plastic sheet morphologies. We derive new governing equations explaining self-similar patterns reported earlier in experiments. We reveal the cascade mechanism, determine the bounds for its wavelengths, and predict a similarity factor of 3 in agreement with experiments. This is confirmed by numerical solutions with up to five generations of wrinkles.

OPTIMAL DESIGN OF STEEL MOMENT FRAME STRUCTURES USING THE GA-BASED REDUCED SEARCH SPACE (GA-RSS) TECHNIQUE

This paper proposes a GA-based reduced search space technique (GA-RSS) for the optimal design of steel moment frames. It tries to reduce the computation time by focusing the search around the boundaries of the constraints, using a ranking-based constraint handling to enhance the efficiency of the algorithm. This attempt to reduce the search space is due to the fact that in most optimization pro...

Self-similar solutions‎ ‎of the Riemann problem for two-dimensional systems of conservation‎ ‎laws

In this paper, a new approach is applied to study the self-similar solutions of 2×2 systems of nonlinear hyperbolic conservation laws. A notion of characteristic directions is introduced and then used to construct local and smooth solutions of the associated Riemann problem

Fabrication and Analysis of Deep Submicron Strained - Si N - MOSFET ’ s

Deep submicron strained-Si n-MOSFET’s were fabricated on strained Si/relaxed Si0 8Ge0 2 heterostructures. Epitaxial layer structures were designed to yield well-matched channel doping profiles after processing, allowing comparison of strained and unstrained Si surface channel devices. In spite of the high substrate doping and high vertical fields, the MOSFET mobility of the strained-Si devices ...

مقایسه گرایش شخصیتی خودتخریبی و خودشناسی انسجامی در بیماران مبتلا به مالتیپل اسکلروز و افراد سالم

Based on “teleological coherence” hypothesis, all of the systems of an organism aim to achieve a common goal and when the boundaries between self/nonself are broken in one system, the possibility that they will be destroyed in other systems is increased. On this basis the present study aimed to investigate self-destructive tendencies and integrative self-knowledge of MS patients (N = 88) and no...

Nanorod Self-Assembly in High Jc YBa2Cu3O7−x Films with Ru-Based Double Perovskites

Many second phase additions to YBa₂Cu₃O7-x (YBCO) films, in particular those that self-assemble into aligned nanorod and nanoparticle structures, enhance performance in self and applied fields. Of particular interest for additions are Ba-containing perovskites that are compatible with YBCO. In this report, we discuss the addition of Ba₂YRuO₆ to bulk and thick-film YBCO. Sub-micron, randomly ori...
