A two-dimensional mathematical model of the thermoelastic state has been built for a circular plate containing curvilinear inclusion and crack, under action uniformly distributed temperature across entire piece-homogeneous plate. Using apparatus singular integral equations (SIEs), problem was reduced to system two first second kind on contours crack inclusion, respectively. Numerical solutions ...

The present work deals with the effect of an external circumferential elliptical crack located at thickness transition on a varied stepped diameter pipe . The purpose is the application of the extended finite element method (XFEM) for the calculation of SIF at the thickness transition region of pipe considering internal pressure and compare the effect of the crack between pipes straight and wi...

PURPOSE The aims of the present study were to compare the image quality and visibility of tooth cracks between conventional methods and swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) and to develop an automatic detection technique for tooth cracks by SS-OCT imaging. METHODS We evaluated SS-OCT with a near-infrared wavelength centered at 1,310 nm over a spectral bandwidth of 100 nm at a ra...

different languages are classified in different types according to different elliptical positions in coordinate sentences. in the following, i shall briefly outline this typology and then show the status of persian in this hierarchy. moreover, i will demonstrate that two functional factors; ease of processing and temporal order, are in competition to specify the elliptical positions in these se...

In his 1985 article (“Projection pursuit”), Huber demonstrates the interest of his method to estimate a density from a data set in a simple given case. He considers the factorization of density through a Gaussian component and some residual density. Huber’s work is based on maximizing Kullback–Leibler divergence. Our proposal leads to a new algorithm. Furthermore, we will also consider the case...

This paper describes a model for the analysis of multilayered chiral structures containing planar electric and magnetic scattering elements of arbitrary shape, illuminated by an elliptically polarized plane wave. The particular case of a single chiral layer is analyzed and the scattering matrices for single and dual electric and/or magnetic dipole distributions are derived in an original way. A...

The finite element alternating method is an attractive and efficient method for calculating the stress intensity factor of cracks emanating from fastener holes such as the problem of multiple site damage (MSD) at the fuselage skin of aging aircraft. While the alternating method has been used to solve various engineering problems in assessing the structural integrity of aging aircraft, this meth...

Seeking the law of through-crack in double hole shaped charge can help reveal rock failure mechanism directional controlled blasting. Using LS-DYNA numerical simulation analysis, dynamic mechanical behaviors double-hole crack development and penetration elliptical bipolar linear-shaped blasting ordinary were compared studied. The results showed that it was difficult to form a straight line thro...

This paper summarizes Kormendy et al. (2009, ApJS, in press, arXiv:0810.1681). We confirm that spheroidal galaxies have fundamental plane correlations that are almost perpendicular to those for bulges and ellipticals. Spheroidals are not dwarf ellipticals. They are structurally similar to late-type galaxies. We suggest that they are defunct (“red and dead”) late-type galaxies transformed by a v...

The growth of transverse cracks under expanding spherical contact in a model system consisted of soda-lime glass bonded to a polycarbonate substrate is observed in situ from below or from the polished edge of the bilayer. Abrasion or chemical etching is employed on the coating surfaces to control the initial fracture. In the limit case of monoliths, the crack mouth becomes fully engulfed by the...
