We report a first principles, self-consistent, all electron, linear combination of Gaussian orbitals (LCGO) calculation of a comprehensive collection of magneto-optical properties of nickel and iron based on density functional theory. Among the many magneto-optical effects, we have studied the equatorial Kerr effect for absorption in the optical as well as soft X-ray region, where it is called ...

the rapid melting of a semi- infinite body due to the absorption of a cw laser beam radiation has been studied. the enthalpy technique for the solution of phase change problems has been used in an explicit finite difference form to calculate the transient temperature distribution in the semi-infinite body and the growth rate of the melt pool. the technique has been modified so that it is not ne...

the current study presents a new analytical method for buckling analysis of circular plates with constant thickness and poisson’s ratio, made of functionally graded material subjected to radial load. governing equations are based on energy method for thin plates. the boundary conditions of the plate are assumed to be simply supported and clamped. the stability equations were obtained by using c...

hydroforming process in one of the most effective production method, for improving the drawing ratio in sheet metal forming process. this is due to the fact that in hydroforming process, forming takes place using a punch which drives the part forward via a controlled fluid pressure. in this paper, deep drawing hydroforming for circular punch is investigated. different pressure paths are tested ...

thermal conformational changes in human serum albumin (hsa) in present with a 10 mm phosphate buffer, at ph=7 have been investigated via circular dichroism (cd) and uv spectroscopic methods. the results indicate that temperature in a range of 25oc to 55oc could induce a reversible conformational change in the structure of hsa. the hsa phase transition corresponds to the physiological and pathol...

this study is attempted to compare the number of rings and circular scales that are formed during various ages on liza saliens. sampling was carried out monthly during 2012-2013 using beach sine fishing nets. 102 specimens of different sizes were collected and transferred to the laboratory in boxes containing ice. the age of fish was determined by the number of annual rings as well as, the numb...

in this paper the factor of safety (fs) and critical line-segments slip surface obtained by the alternating variable local gradient (avlg) optimization method was presented as a new topic in 2d. results revealed that the percentage of reduction in the fs obtained by switching from a circular shape to line segments was higher with the avlg method than other methods. the 2d-avlg optimization meth...

A Helly circular-arc graph is the intersection graph of a set of arcs on a circle having the Helly property. We introduce essential obstacles, which are a refinement of the notion of obstacles, and prove that essential obstacles are precisely the minimal forbidden induced circular-arc subgraphs for the class of Helly circular-arc graphs. We show that it is possible to find in linear time, in an...

Energy level alignment and spin polarization at tetracyanoquinodimethane/Fe and acridine orange base/Fe interfaces are investigated by means of photoelectron spectroscopy and X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD), respectively, to explore their potential application in organic spintronics. Interface dipoles are observed at both hybrid interfaces, and the work function of Fe is increased by 0...

Magnetic contrast for the operation of a photoelectron emission microscope ~PEEM! with synchrotron radiation is provided by magnetic dichroisms. Besides the most frequently employed magnetic dichroism, magnetic circular dichroism in x-ray absorption spectroscopy, energy filtering of photoemitted electrons allows one to also use magnetic dichroisms in photoelectron emission as complementary cont...
