We have developed a finite element model of convection in a spherical, axisymmetric shell that we use to simulate upwelling thermal plumes in the mantle. The finite element method provides the flexibility to include realistic properties such as temperature-dependent viscosity, the focus of this paper. We used this model to investigate the effect of temperature-dependent viscosity on the structu...

Reliable simulation of hot stamping process requires accurate material data. This paper describes the development of computer models that can provide many of the material data required, including TTT/CCT phase transformation diagrams, temperature dependent physical and thermophysical properties, as well as temperature and strain rate dependent mechanical properties including high temperature st...

In this work, thermo – elastic analysis for functionally graded thick – walled cylinder with temperature - dependent material properties at steady condition is carried out. The length of cylinder is infinite and loading is consist of internal hydrostatic pressure and temperature gradient. All of physical and mechanical properties expect the Poisson's ratio are considered as multiplied an expone...

absorption of flavor compounds from food into the package is one of the interactions which occurbetween food and packaging material. this phenomenon is of high importance, because absorptionof flavors into the packaging material could diminish the flavor intensity of the product as well asloss of mechanical/border properties of the packaging material, so the final loss of quality in thefood pro...

In the present research, vibrational behavior of anisotropic protein microtubules (MTs) immersed in cytosol via Cooper–Naghdi shell model is investigated. MTs are hollow cylindrical structures in the eukaryotic cytoskeleton which surrounded by filament network. The temperature effect on vibration frequency is also taken into account by assuming temperature-dependent material properties for MTs....

The analytical solution of three-dimensional heat conduction problem, including the temperature and thermal flux fields, is one important problems that have not been completely solved in solid mechanics. Considering dependence material parameters makes problem more difficult. In this paper, we first reduce temperature-dependent to Laplace equation by introducing intermediate function. Then, gen...
