Introduction: Small field dosimetry is challenging for radiotherapy dosimetry. measurement of the output factor in the air and water (Sc, Scp) is one of the input parameters for commissioning of treatment planning systems and beam modeling. The aims of this study are to measured Sc,Scp for small fields with EBT2 and Ion chamber and design a appropriate mini-phantom for small fi...

It has been recently found that the initial-energy effect, which is associated with the finite initial energy of carriers entering the multiplication region of an avalanche photodiode (APD), can be tailored to reduce the excess noise well beyond the previously known limits for thin APDs. However, the control of the initial energy of injected carriers can be difficult in practice for an APD with...

automobile light weight structural composites are subjected to the various loadings in their service lives. honeycombs are increasingly used as core structures in automobile light weight structures as energy absorbers. in this paper the energy absorption of honeycomb panels under impact of cylindrical projectile is numerically and experimentally studied. the effect of the core materials and cro...

Assessing the behavior of composite structures which are subjected to impact loads is one of the important subjects in the field of mechanical sciences. Using thin-walled tubes which collapsed and absorbed the impact energy is a well-known method to prevent damages to the other parts of the structures. In this paper, deformations, crushing length, peak load, mean force and energy absorption cap...

Following Sanchez’s approach we investigate the effect of scalar mass in the absorption and emission problems of 4d Schwarzschild black hole. The absorption cross sections for arbitrary angular momentum of the scalar field are computed numerically in the full range of energy by making use of the analytic near-horizon and asymptotic solutions and their analytic continuations. The scalar mass mak...

Spin-orbit coupling plays an important role in various properties of very different materials. Moreover efforts are underway to control the degree and quality of spin-orbit coupling in materials with a concomitant control of transport properties. We calculate the frequency dependent optical conductivity in systems with both Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling. We find that when the linea...

In P3HT:PCBM based organic solar cells we propose and demonstrate numerically plasmonic backcontact grating architectures for strong optical absorption enhanced in both transverse-magnetic and transverse-electric polarizations. Even when the active material is partially replaced by the metallic grating (without increasing the active layer film thickness), we show computationally that the light ...

automobile body plays crucial role in preventing the collision energy transfer in severe accidents to the passengers. if the collision energy is dissipated or saved in bumper or chassis, the amount of damage to the occupants would be minimized. using novel laminated panel (fiber metal laminate) in auto body, and considering the characteristics such as high energy absorption, strength, high dent...

composites materials are widely used because of their high specific stiffness and strength. although the methods and techniques of designing these materials are well developed, however, the research on the behavior of these materials under impact and dynamic loadings are still under progress. in this article the crushing and energy absorption of composite tubes under axial dynamic loadings are ...
