Leak localization is essential for the safety and maintenance of storage vessels. This study proposes a novel circular acoustic emission sensor array to realize the continuous CO₂ leak localization from a circular hole on the surface of a large storage vessel in a carbon capture and storage system. Advantages of the proposed array are analyzed and compared with the common sparse arrays. Experim...

[1] The shear tractions that mantle flow exerts on the base of Earth’s lithosphere contribute to plate-driving forces and lithospheric stresses. We investigate the sensitivity of these tractions to sub-lithospheric viscosity variations by comparing shear tractions computed from a mantle flow model featuring laterally-varying lithosphere and asthenosphere viscosity with those from a model with l...

The female reproductive organs of Sarcophaga ruficornis F. (Diptera: Sarcophagidae) consists of paired ovaries, lateral oviducts, a common oviduct, three spermathecae and paired accessory glands. Each ovary is formed of about 45-53 polytrophic ovarioles. The epithelium of lateral oviduct is formed of syncytial cells overlaid by longitudinal and circular muscle fibers. The common oviduct has syn...

Stress concentration factors have been examined in a functionally graded material (FGM) plate with central holes in different shapes in this essay. The material properties change along the thickness of plate. ABAQUS software has been utilized for modeling of problem in which subroutine of ABAQUS sub-program was used for modeling of the targeted material. The considering shapes for hole in plate...

Discoid cartilage was first described in 1889 by Young, and for long was found affecting only the lateral cartilage. The “ snapping knee “ was described as a clinical sign of this condition by Kroiss in 1910. In 1930 Watson Jones described a ring-shaped medial cartilage in a thirty-four-year-old man with clicking at the inner side of his knee ; there had been no history of injury. The cartilage...

in this paper, asymmetric buckling analysis of functionally graded (fg) circular plates with temperature dependent property that subjected to the uniform radial compression and thermal loading is investigated. this plate is on an elastic medium that simulated by winkler and pasternak foundation. mechanical properties of the plate are assumed to vary nonlinearly by temperature change. the equili...
