Ferroelectric perovskites are used in various transducer, memory and optical applications due to their attractive properties. In these applications, the ferroelectric materials often have complex geometries and electrode arrangements, and are subjected to domain switching. Therefore, it is important to understand the domain pattern that forms in these geometries. However, models of domain evolu...

In this paper, the laminar incompressible flow equations are solved by an upwind least-squares meshless method. Due to the difficulties in generating quality meshes, particularly in complex geometries, a meshless method is increasingly used as a new numerical tool. The meshless methods only use clouds of nodes to influence the domain of every node. Thus, they do not require the nodes to be conn...

Trimming techniques are efficient ways to generate complex geometries in Computer-Aided Design(CAD). In this paper, an improved isogeometric analysis(IGA) method for trimmed geometries is proposed. We will show that the proposed method reduces the numerical error of physical solution by 50% for simple trimmed geometries, and the condition number of stiffness matrix is also decreased. Furthermor...

Introduction: Ionizing radiation is widely used in industry and medicine; however, it causes a significant health hazard by making microscopic damage to living tissue. Various biological parameters, including cell survival fraction and relative biological effectiveness, are taken into account to assess the severity and extent of biological damages. Microdosimetry suffe...

Established IUPAC recommendations for the representation of configuration are reviewed briefly, and then methodologies are examined for dealing with regular polyhedra that are typically used when working with coordination numbers greater than 6. More than one method is available and can be used for many such geometries, but the deviations from regular polyhedral geometries that are typically fo...

in this work, laser bending of perforated sheets has been investigated numerically. laser bending of perforated sheets is more complicated than non-perforated sheets due to their complex geometries. in this paper, laser bending of perforated sheets is studied numerically in the form of thermo-mechanical analysis with abaqus/implicit code. for this purpose, the effects of process and sheet param...

a novel pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid mixed ligands complex of formula [co(no3)2].6h2o has been obtained by the reaction of pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid with cobalt nitrate and 1,10-phenanthroline on heating in water. the structures of [co(pydc)(phen)(h2o)](pydch2).4h2o receptors, and their complexes were optimized using dft method at the b3lyp/3-21g** level. the highest occupied molecular o...

abstracthydroforming process is a deep stretching process only with the difference that a fluid is used instead of the mandrel. this paper investigates the hydroforming process of non-cylindrical and non-spherical geometries using finite element analysis software to calculate the influences of effective process parameters such as the coefficient of friction between the surfaces and the pressure...

Texture measurement for simple geometric surfaces is well established. Many surface filtration techniques using Fourier, Gaussian, wavelets ... etc, have been proposed over the past decades. These filtration techniques cannot be applied to today’s complex freeform surfaces, which have nonEuclidean geometries in nature, without distortion of the results. Introducing the lifting scheme open the o...
