this paper deals with the determination of displacement function and thermal stresses of a finite length isotropic functionally graded hollow cylinder subjected to uniform temperature field. the solution of the governing thermoelastic equation is obtained, as suggested by spencer et al. for anisotropic laminates.  numerical calculations are also carried out for fgm (functionally graded material...

This report discusses the energy balance results observed during the simulation of the impact of an aluminum sphere on an aluminum plate supported by a hollow aluminum cylinder. Due to the high impact velocity, there is considerable ringing of the cylinder which causes the sum of the mechanical energies to increase. An optimal set of input parameters is identified that minimizes ringing and red...

Static imaging of the electrical impedance tomography can obtain the absolute electrical conductivity distribution at one section of the subject. The test is performed on a cylinder physical phantom in which slim rectangle, hollow cylinder, small rectangle or three cylinders are selected to simulate complex conductivity perturbation objects. The measurement data is obtained by a data acquisitio...

We have developed a new direct construction method for core build-up starting with the hypothesis that an improvement in pullout strength and a decrease in the number of voids in the restorative material will become possible by filling a hollow fiber reinforced post with the restorative material from the bottom of the root canal. For the pullout test, the hollow post was fixed to the head of a ...

We develop an orders-of-scattering approximation, termed the “screened cylindrical void/ core” (SCV) approximation, for a composite cylinder. The composite cylinder consists of a large host cylinder that contains a small, eccentrically embedded, core cylinder. The SCV approximation is developed via separation of variables in conjunctionwith addition theorems for cylindrical functions. We show t...

The analytical solution of functionally graded piezoelectric hollow cylinder which is under radial electric potential and non-axisymmetric thermo-mechanical loads, are presented in this paper. Using complex Fourier series and estimation of power law for variations of material characterizations through the thickness, the electro thermo mechanical behavior of the FGPM cylinder is obtained. The st...

In this research, static stresses analysis of boron nitride nano - tube reinforced composite (BNNTRC) cylinder made of poly - vinylidene fluoride (PVDF) subjected to non - axisymmetric thermo - mechanical loads and applied voltage is developed. The surrounded elastic medium is modelled by Pasternak foundation. Composite structure is modeled based on piezoelectric fiber reinforced composite (PFR...

Pervaporation membrane technology plays an important role in production of renewable bio-fuels. To improve the separation performance of polymeric membranes, an effective approach is development of mixed-matrix membranes containing high-performing fillers such as metal-organic frameworks. Towards practical application, hollow fiber could be an ideal substrate for mixed-matrix composite membrane...
