Abstract In this research work, the finite element software, ABAQUS is used to study by simulations influence of form defect on mechanical behavior a shrink-fitted assembly presenting internal radial cracks. Under action contact pressure induced tightening between two cylinders, these cracks resulting from incorrect operations or materials elaboration defect, can be harmful assembly. Various we...

In this paper static analysis of orthotropic functionally graded material (FGM) cylinders with finite length was carried out by a mesh-free method. MLS shape functions are used for approximation of displacement field in the weak form of equilibrium equation and essential boundary conditions are imposed by transformation method. In this simulation, an ax symmetric model is used. Mechanical prope...

Abstract The use of lightweight metal cylinders is great significance to artillery weapon systems in terms significant mass reduction, service life extension, power consumption reduction and operational effectiveness. Based on the load conditions provided by classical internal ballistic theory, a high precision finite element model solved explicit integration algorithm with central difference. ...

We report an anisotropic tissue model containing well-ordered birefringent cylinders. Using simulations and experiments, we examined the different polarization features for nonbirefringent and birefringent cylinders and analyzed the influence of the birefringent cylinders on the retardance obtained from Mueller matrix polar decomposition. For the well-ordered birefringent cylinders, retardance ...

The micromagnetic structure of nanofabricated nickel particles has been determined as a function of particle diameter and thickness using a combination of high-resolution magnetic force microscopy and LandauLifshitz-Gilbert micromagnetic simulations. Cylindrical particles were lithographically prepared with diameters in the range 68 900 nm, and thickness between 48 and 140 nm. Extensive measure...

This function / is called the ^-cylinder function for P. It can be seen that a semicylinder is a 1-cylinder. In [5], properties of ^-cylinders and their relationship to cylinders were explored, and subsequently it was shown that: (i) for each n > 1, the class of all (n+ l)-cylinders is a proper subset of the class of all cylinders, and (ii) a set is a cylinder if and only if it is an ^-cylinder...
