in this paper the effects of transmittance, dispersion angle and diffusion length on the quantum efficiency of solar cells (qesc) have been simulated and investigated. optical path technic is used for simulation. the results show that base thickness, diffusion length, dispersion angle, number of optical confinement path and transmission angles have an extremely effects on the qesc. simulation r...

one of the great challenges in the processing of materials using equal channel angular pressing (ecap) is the high forming forces required to produce large shear deformation in the material. researchers show that the friction forces between the die and the sample constitute a great part of the total forming forces. recently, ultrasonic vibrations are successfully implemented into the ecap proce...

in studying through simulation, choosing an appropriate tool/language would be a difficult task because many of them are available. on the other hand, few research works focus on evaluation of simulation tools/languages and their comparison. this paper makes a couple of evaluations and ranks more than fifty simulation tools that are currently available. the first evaluation and ranking is in th...

in this study, a simulation of tire–soil interaction model was considered with special view to two-dimensional (2-d) fem model of carcass. coefficients of mechanical behavior of silty-loam soil were accurately measured to obtain an effective simulation. the results of simulation which was implemented in matlab7, showed that the radial-ply tire had greater tractive efficiency than bias tire at t...

One of the most important parameters in designing electrical motors is heat generation by the motor and the way it is dissipated. Temperature rising reduce efficiency and reliability of traction motors and leads to failure. In this paper, an urban train traction motor in a 3D computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation has been investigated. Maxwell software for electromagnetic simulation and...

application of agent based model in simulation of stakeholder’s behavior is slightly a new method for modeling of complicated systems that include autonomous agents interacting with each other. recent numerical achievements have made the applications of agent based models possible in various fields. these applications range from modeling of human progress and destruction of past civilizations t...
