in this paper, fourteen mt stations along a profile perpendicular to the main geological structure were used in order to identify the geology of sabalan geothermal field including the extension of the surface cap-rock and clay-cap layers. the mt data collected between 1-8192 hz is of useful quality and provides good control on the surface layers in many areas. it means that reliable modeling sh...

At a different angle, this study analyzed the contour chart of blood flow pressure, extreme pressure and its position to quantify DBFP in thirteen different postures with gravity considered or not (G ≠ 0 or G = 0). The aim was to determine the suitable body positions, in which the postural model of a single vessel could be simplified to two-dimensional (2D) symmetrical one while only considerin...

The quasi-static evolution of an elastoplastic body with a multi-surface constitutive law of linear kinematic hardening type allows the modeling of curved stress-strain relations. It generalises classical small-strain elastoplasticity from one to various plastic phases. Firstly, we briefly recall a mathematical model represented by an initial-boundary value problem in the form a variational ine...

The process of developing architectural forms has greatly been changed by advances in digital technology, especially in design tools and applications. In recent years, the advent of graphical scripting languages in the design process has profoundly affected 3D modeling. Scripting languages help develop algorithms and geometrical grammar of shapes based on their constituent parameters. This stud...
