As you can see the referees find the analysis interesting, but also indicate that that some more analysis is needed to fully support the conclusions and for the manuscript to have the full impact of an EMBO Journal paper. I will not repeat all the issues here as they are clearly indicated below. Given the referees' comments I would like to invite you to submit a suitably revised manuscript shou...

An approximate numerical mthod is presented for analysis and determination of modal characteristics in straight, pretwisted non-unifom helicopter blades. The analysis considers the coupled flapwise bending (out of plane), chordwise bending (in plane), and torsion vibration of both rotating and non-rotating blades. The proposed method is based on the integral expansion of Green functions (struct...

in this study, forced-vibration analysis of a coupled system of single layered graphene sheets (slgss) subjected to the moving nano-particle is carried out based on nonlocal elasticity theory of orthotropic plate. two slgss are coupled with elastic medium which is simulated by pasternak and visco-pasternak models. using hamilton’s principle, governing differential equations of motion are derive...

BACKGROUND Traffic and transport is a substantial part of a range of economic, social and environmental factors distinguished to have impact on human health. This paper is a report on a preliminary section of a Health Impact Assessment (HIA) on urban traffic and transport initiatives, being conducted in Sanandaj, Iran. In this preliminary study, the psychometric properties of Urban Traffic rela...

Abstract The objects of consideration are thin linearly thermoelastic Kirchhoff-Love-type circular cylindrical shells having a periodically microheterogeneous structure in circumferential and axial directions ( biperiodic ). aim this contribution is to formulate discuss two new averaged mathematical models for the analysis selected dynamic thermoelasticity problems under consideration: non-asym...

Accurate modeling of impact-ionization is a critical issue for submicron devices. It is well known that models based on the electric field or on the average carrier energy give a rather poor description of the problem. We show that by accounting for the average square energy an accurate analytical description of the distribution function can be given which can then be used to evaluate microscop...

We solve a quasistatic problem of thermoelasticity for an infinitely long cylindrical shell made material with low shear stiffness. The is subjected to the action local heat sources whose power varies as function time. perform numerical analysis temperature fields, annular forces, and axial moments various practically important modes heating shells.

The purpose of this work is to present a study of the thermomechanical behavior of the automotive disc brake during the braking phase. The first analysis is performed on the disc-pad model without the presence of thermal properties. Structural performance of the disc-pad model such as deformation and Von-Mises stress is predicted. The case of thermoelasticity on the same model with the inclusio...
