In this research, optimization process of axisymmetric extrusion dies is proposed. Plastic zone is analyzed using finite element method in the Eulerian system with flow formulation. The die profiles are defined by Bezier curves with six control points. Two effective functions are considered in this research; standard deviation of the strain rate and the rate of energy consumption during extrusi...

We propose a method to generate THz vector Bessel beams by converting spoof surface plasmon polaritons into a series of backward radiation titled towards the optical axis using a concentric metal corrugation structure. The proposed method enables replacing a conventional bulky axicon lens with a flat device and contributes to the implementation of integrated THz systems.

We consider the corrugation instability of the self–similar flow with an accelerating shock in the highly relativistic regime. We derive the correct dispersion relation for the proper modes in the self–similar regime, and conclude that this solution is unstable. Subject headings: hydrodynamics – shock waves – self-similar solutions

UNLABELLED Cholestasis is a common complication in liver diseases that triggers a proliferative response of the biliary tree. Bile duct ligation (BDL) is a frequently used model of cholestasis in rodents. To determine which changes occur in the three-dimensional (3D) architecture of the interlobular bile duct during cholestasis, we used 3D confocal imaging, surface reconstructions, and automate...
