نویسندگان
چکیده
Accurate analysis of electromagnetic wave propagation in tunnels has important applications in the areas of mobile and wireless communications. In this paper a fully vectorial finite element base propagation model is developed for blocked straight and curved tunnels. Effect of different vehicles, location of vehicles and number of vehicles inside tunnels is analysed. It is shown that the basic propagation loss inside tunnels is mainly determined by the number of vehicles and their size. Location of vehicles have influence on radio wave propagation only in curved tunnels.

متن کاملMixed finite element formulation enriched by Adomian method for vibration analysis of horizontally curved beams
Abstract: The vibration analysis of horizontally curved beams is generally led to higher order shape functions using direct finite element method, resulting in more time-consuming computation process. In this paper, the weak-form mixed finite element method was used to reduce the order of shape functions. The shape functions were first considered linear which did not provide adequate accuracy....
متن کاملA generalized upper bound solution for bimetallic rod extrusion through arbitrarily curved dies
In this paper, an upper bound approach is used to analyze the extrusion process of bimetallic rods through arbitrarily curved dies. Based on a spherical velocity field, internal, shearing and frictional power terms are calculated. The developed upper bound solution is used for calculating the extrusion force for two types of die shapes: a conical die as a linear die profile and a streamlined di...
