In this paper, the basic governing equations for isotropic and homogeneous generalized thermoelastic half-space under hydrostatic initial stress are formulated in the context of the Green and Naghdi theory of types II and III. These governing equations are solved analytically to obtain the dimensional velocities in an xy-plane. It is shown that there exist three plane waves, namely a thermal wa...

This paper reports a database, namely, the Automated Identification and Quantification Database System (AIQS-DB), which consists of three components, including retention times, mass data, calibration curves, without requirement to analyze standard substances. The AIQS-DB that are pre-registered in database used as replacement for process measuring chemical standards. Both target unknown substan...

This is the first study to test the extent to which reflections help locate objects in space and perceive their size. For planar mirrors, the relative size of a target and its reflection is informative about the absolute distance of the target in units of the distance between target and mirror surface. When the target is near the mirror, target and reflection are similar in size; as the target ...

Radar target echoes undergo fading in the presence of specular reflection, which is adverse to radar detection. To address this problem, paper proposes a detection method that uses single transmitting antenna and three receiving antennas. The proposed maximum absolute value difference received signal power among antennas as test statistic. First, echo reflection analyzed. Then, selection requir...
