future increase of mobile communication subscribers will require a great capacity expansion of the cellular systems. in order to accommodate the increasing number of subscribers, the cell size will have to be much smaller than current size. therefore, it is predictable that the location updating and paging procedures will produce a major part of signaling traffic in these networks. this pape...

This study investigates the effect of material parameters of the Gurson-Tvergaard-Needleman (GTN) model on the failure prediction of cellular structures. The effect of elastic modulus, calibration parameter of GTN model, isotropic hardening, fracture strain, and strut diameter on the load-displacement curve of a lattice structure fabricated by Selective Laser Melting (SLM) has been studied by u...
