an earthquake with the magnitude of 5.9 mw occurred in qeshm island and hormozgan province in november 27th 2005. 3d co-seismic deformation field caused by the earthquake are determined based on the ascending and descending interferograms and azimuth offsets. the peak to peak estimated displacement is about 10 cm in west, 69 cm in north and 22 cm in vertical directions. we apply strain analysis...

We show that the existence of stable, ordered 3d-5d intermetallics CuAu and NiPt, as opposed to the unstable 3d-4d isovalent analogs CuAg and NiPd, results from relativity. First, in shrinking the equilibrium volume of the 5d element, relativity reduces the atomic size mismatch with respect to the 3d element, thus lowering the elastic packing strain. Second, in lowering the energy of the bondin...

Stereo digital image correlation (also called 3D DIC) is a common measurement technique in experimental mechanics for measuring 3D shapes or 3D displacement/strain fields, in research laboratories as well as in industry. Nevertheless, like most of the optical full-field measurement techniques, 3D DIC suffers from a lack of information about its metrological performances. For the 3D DIC techniqu...

Strain evaluation is of major interest in clinical cardiology as it can quantify the cardiac function. Myocardial elastography, a radio-frequency (RF)-based cross-correlation method, has been developed to evaluate the local strain distribution in the heart in vivo. However, inhomogeneities such as RF ablation lesions or infarction require a three-dimensional approach to be measured accurately. ...

The nucleotide sequence of the VP1 (1D) and partial 3D polymerase (3D(pol)) coding regions of the foot and mouth disease virus (FMDV) vaccine strain A/Iran87, a highly passaged isolate (~150 passages), was determined and aligned with previously published FMDV serotype A sequences. Overall analysis of the amino acid substitutions revealed that the partial 3D(pol) coding region contained four ami...

Nowadays, equal channel angular pressing, known as the ECAP process, is one of the most popular methods for manufacturing ultra-fine grained (UFG) materials. In this paper, Ecap process has been carried out on pure copper and 6012 aluminum alloy up to six passes by route . Principal attention was paid to the influence of parameters such as diameter, material, and the height of billet on mechani...
