Strong, sharp, negative seismic discontinuities, velocity decreases with depth, are observed beneath the Pacific seafloor at ∼60 km depth. It has been suggested that these are caused by an increase in radial anisotropy with depth, which occurs in global surface wave models. Here we test this hypothesis in two ways. We evaluate whether an increase in surface wave radial anisotropy with depth is ...

In this paper, an analytical formula to calculate the radial stiffness of groove elastic support is presented. The influence of structure parameters on radial stiffness and homogeneity of radial stiffness is investigated as well. The accuracy and calculating speed of the analysis formula are compared to that of finite element method (FEM). Findings are as following: The calculating speed of ana...

The Study of heat transfer augmentation in micro scale and electronic packaging systems are some of the paramount areas of the impending universe. In such systems the cooling of the heat sinks are generally achieved through the impingement of air jet. Assuming the air jet to be continues & incompressible fluid, the heat dissipation rate over the target surface seems to either uniform or well ch...

In this paper, we calculate the relativistic bulk tensor and shear tensor of the relativistic accretion ows in the Kerr metric, overall and without any approximation. We obtain the relations of all components of the relativistic bulk and shear tensor in terms of components of four-velocity and its derivatives, Christoffel symbols and metric components in the BLF. Then, these components are deri...

  In this article, Non radial method of dynamic DEA with the parallel network structure is presented and is used for calculation of relative efficiency measures when inputs and outputs do not change equally. In this model, DMU divisions under evaluation have been put together in parallel. But its dynamic structure is assumed in series. Since in real applications there are undesirable inputs an...

In this paper, the classic Kelvin-Voigt model coupled thermo-viscoelasticity model of hollow and solid spheres under radial symmetric loading condition is considered. A full analytical method is used and an exact unique solution of the classic coupled equations is presented. The thermal and mechanical boundary conditions, the body force, and the heat source are considered in the most general fo...

The effective medium approach to radial fixed bed dispersion models, in which radial dispersion of mass is superimposed on axial plug flow, is based on a constant effective dispersion coefficient, DT. For packed beds of a small tube-to-particle diameter ratio (N), the experimentally-observed decrease in this parameter near the tube wall is accounted for by a lumped resistance located at the tub...

In this paper, q-Gaussian Radial Basis Functions are presented as an alternative to Gaussian Radial Basis Function. This model is based on q-Gaussian distribution, which parametrizes the Gaussian distribution by adding a new parameter q. The q-Gaussian Radial Basis Function allows different Radial Basis Functions to be represented by updating the new parameter q. For example, when the q-Gaussia...
