In this paper, a semi-analytical solution for magneto-thermo-elastic problem in an axisymmetric functionally graded (FG) hollow rotating disk with constant thickness placed in uniform magnetic and thermal fields with heat convection from disk’s surfaces is presented. Solution for stresses and perturbation of magnetic field vector in a thin FG rotating disk is determined using infinitesimal theo...

In Finsler geometry, the notion of parallel for Finsler tensor fields is defined, already. In this paper, however, for vector fields on a base manifold, the author studies the notion of parallel. In the last section, the obtained results are shown as compare corresponding properties to them of Riemannian geometry. Introduction The author gave the definition (1.1) of the parallel displacement al...

Symmetry principles play an important role with respect to the laws of nature. To put into a symmetrical shape the equations, coupling together the electric and magnetic fields, Maxwell added an electric displacement current. Such an additive, introduced for reasons of symmetry, resulted in appearing a unified-field structure: the electromagnetic field. The electric displacement current in Maxw...

Here we introduce a new technique that probes voltage-dependent charge displacements of excitable membrane-bound proteins using extracellularly applied radio frequency (RF, 500 kHz) electric fields. Xenopus oocytes were used as a model cell for these experiments, and were injected with cRNA encoding Shaker B-IR (ShB-IR) K(+) ion channels to express large densities of this protein in the oocyte ...

In quasicrystals, there are not only conventional, but also phason displacement fields and associated Burgers vectors. We have calculated approximate solutions for the elastic fields induced by two-, threeand fivefold straight screwand edge-dislocations in infinite icosahedral quasicrystals by means of a generalized perturbation method. Starting from the solution for elastic isotropy in phonon ...

Measurements of three-dimensional displacements in a scaffold implant under uniaxial compression have been obtained by two digital volume correlation (DVC) methods, and compared with those obtained from micro-finite element models. The DVC methods were based on two approaches, a local approach which registers independent small volumes and yields discontinuous displacement fields; and a global a...

Many applications in industry require non-contact, fast and accurate measurement of both surface profile and deformation field for manufacturing quality control and structural testing purposes. The fringe projection technique has been widely used due to its high accuracy and spatial resolution in measuring shape and out-of-plane displacement fields, but it cannot identify in-plane displacements...

The objective of this study was to apply cine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using displacement encoding with stimulated echoes (DENSE) to measure the dynamic two-dimensional (2D) displacement and Lagrangian strain fields in the biceps brachii muscle. Six healthy volunteers underwent cine DENSE MRI during repeated elbow flexion against the load of gravity. Displacement encoded dynamic images ...

Digital Image Correlation (DIC) is an easy to use yet powerful approach to measure displacement and strain fields. While the method is robust and accurate for a variety of applications, standard DIC returns large error and poor correlation quality near displacement discontinuities such as cracks or shear bands. This occurs because the subsets used for correlation can only capture continuous def...

the doruneh fault is one of the longest and most prominent faults in iran. however, only two recorded historical earthquakes with magnitudes more than 7 might be related to this fault. for getting more information on this fault more investigation in different fields are required. fault displacement is one of the most important parameters needed to explore the fault activity. in this study, with...
