in the present study, a spectral finite element method is developed for free and forced transverse vibration of levy-type moderately thick rectangular orthotropic plates based on first-order shear deformation theory. levy solution assumption was used to convert the two-dimensional problem into a one-dimensional problem. in the first step, the governing out-of-plane differential equations are tr...

In this paper, the nonlinear vibration analysis of a thin cylindrical shell made of Functionally Graded Material (FGM) resting on a nonlinear viscoelastic foundation under compressive axial and lateral loads is studied. Nonlinear governing coupled partial differential equations of motions (PDEs) for cylindrical shell are derived using improved Donnell shell theory. The equations of motions (EOM...

Transport model of droplets injected axially or transversely into a plasma jet is presented. The droplets contain a ceramic precursor that precipitates in the vaporizing droplets. Droplet temperature and solute concentration distributions were predicted to estimate precipitation zones based on a homogeneous nucleation hypothesis. Effects of droplet size, injection velocity and injection angle w...

Internal and surface bone remodelling of inhomogeneous long cylindrical bone is studied both theoretically and numerically in this chapter. Based on the theory of adaptive elasticity, two solutions for thermoelectroelastic problems of bone remodelling, are presented to study effects of mechanical, thermal and electric loads on bone remodelling process. The external loads may be of coupled axial...

An apparatus was constructed to facilitate superimposition of the beam focus radiogram upon the axial transverse tomogram, in order to guide subsequent radia tion therapy more accurately. The apparatus automatically draws six isodose curves in three colors, by plotting the relative doses of the beam focus radiogram. In addition, the isodose chart was made at the same magnification as that of th...
