Solar observations with the Hinode space observatory led to the discovery of strong horizontal magnetic fields in the photosphere of quiet internetwork regions. Here we investigate realistic numerical simulations of the surface layers of the Sun with respect to horizontal magnetic fields and compute the corresponding responses in the Fe I 630 nm line pair. We analyze two simulation runs with gr...

in this paper, dynamic analysis of the composite truncated sandwich conical shells (stcs) with various boundary conditions subjected to low velocity impact was studied analytically, based on higher order sandwich panel theory. impact was assumed to occur normally over to the top face-sheet and the contact force history is predicted using two solution models of the motion are derived based on ha...

This paper presents a new model of equivalent modulus derived from the Repeated Load CBR (RL-CBR) test without strain gauge. This model is an updated version of Araya et al. model (2011), the update consists of using the vertical strain as weighting factor instead of vertical displacement in the mean vertical and horizontal stresses calculation. The accuracy of equivalent modulus was improved b...

In this study we tried to consider effect of vertical component of  near zone earthquake (10 to 15 km far from fault) such as Kobe 1995, Northridge 1994, Loma prieta 1989 and Chichi 1999 on a concrete cable bridge by a 320m span in the middle which was built on different type of soils. The SAP software (version14) was selected because I should have done linear and non-linear time history anal...

Due to invisibility and complexity of the underground displacement monitoring, there exit few practical monitoring sensors capable of monitoring the underground horizontal and vertical displacements simultaneously. A novel electromagnetic underground displacement sensor able to monitor both the horizontal and the vertical displacements was proposed in our previous studies and abbreviated as the...

in this paper, a thermoelasticity solution for steady state response of thick cylinders which are subjected to pressure and external heat flux in inner surface is presented. displacement field obeys the kinematics of the first order shear deformation theory (fsdt). it is assumed that the temperature varies both along the length and the thickness. the variation of the temperature occurs linearly...

the effect of boundary conditions on the solution of the inverse problem of identifying the geometry and location of a cavity inside an elastic solid body using displacement measurements obtained from a tension test is investigated. the boundary elements method (bem) coupled with the genetic algorithm (ga) and the conjugate gradient method (cgm) are implemented in this identification problem. a...
