the objective of this experimental work was to assess the drop impact damage onwoven glass fibre reinforced polymer composite laminate through online method and offlinemethod. online monitoring of drop impact damage was carried out by acoustic emission (ae)technique and ae signals during the drop impact test were captured. from the analysis of aesignals, it was observed that as the impact energ...

several approaches are available to reduce pulsating torque components in permanent magnet motors. one of the known techniques is stator tooth shape modifications. this paper presents an integrated algorithm applicable for tooth shape optimization of permanent magnet motors. this method focuses on the reduced basis technique, finite element analysis and taguchi method and is conducted on tooth ...

Dynamic electrochemical etching technique is optimized to produce tungsten tips with controllable shape and radius of curvature of less than 10 nm. Nascent features such as "dynamic electrochemical etching" and reverse biasing after "drop-off" are utilized, and "two-step dynamic electrochemical etching" is introduced to produce extremely sharp tips with controllable aspect ratio. Electronic cur...

Morphologies of genus-1 and 2 toroidal vesicles are studied numerically by dynamically triangulated membrane models and experimentally by confocal laser microscopy. Our simulation results reproduce shape transformations observed in our experiments well. At large reduced volumes of the genus-1 vesicles, obtained vesicle shapes agree with the previous theoretical prediction, in which axisymmetric...

Two microgel particles are encapsulated in a microdrop having a spherical diameter smaller than the sum of the diameters of the microgels; this causes the microgels to be squeezed together by the oil–water interface of the drop, in turn, making the drop ellipsoidal in shape. By modeling the force applied to the microgels by the drop and equating this to the Hertz contact force of their deformat...
