A corotational finite element method combined with floating frame method and a numerical procedure is proposed to investigate large steady-state deformation and infinitesimal-free vibration around the steady-state deformation of a rotating-inclined Euler beam at constant angular velocity. The element nodal forces are derived using the consistent second-order linearization of the nonlinear beam ...

In the title compound, C12H8N2O5, the aromatic rings are inclined to one another by 56.14 (7)°. The nitro groups are inclined by to the benzene rings to which they are attached by 3.86 (17) and 9.65 (15)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional structure. The title compound is a new monoclinic polymorph, crystallizing in space group P21/c. The...

We examined the interpretation of upward and downward social comparison and its effect on life satisfaction in a questionnaire study among 444 community-dwelling elderly persons with different levels of frailty. As we expected, elderly persons with higher levels of frailty were less inclined to contrast and more inclined to identify themselves with a downward comparison target. Furthermore, the...

This case report describes the repositioning of a laterally luxated primary central incisor with occlusal interference, using a composite inclined plane. The patient was a 4-year-old girl who applied to our clinic three days after the injury. Because of the time delay between injury and presentation, it was not possible to reposition the tooth with pressure. Following a root-canal treatment, an...

A pileup of edge dislocations against an arbitrarily inclined flat bimetallic interface is considered. Equilibrium positions of dislocations are determined for a given number of dislocations and specified material properties, assuming that the resolved shear stress along the pileup plane from a remotely applied loading is uniform and equal for all interface inclination angles. Numerical results...

The increasing importance of the sustainability challenge in ocean engineering has led to the development of floating structure of various configurations. In this study, a numerical wave tank based on the Navier-Stokes equations has been established. The turbulence model, namely standard k-ε is incorporated to the numerical tank to broaden applicability of simulation. The VOF method has been wi...

SUMMARY Acoustic field analysis results of surface acoustic wave dispersive delay lines using inclined chirp IDTs on a Y-Z LiNbO 3 sub-strate are described. The calculated results are compared with optical measurements. The angular spectrum of the plane wave method is applied to calculation of the acoustic fields considering the anisotropy of the SAW velocity by using the polynomial approximati...

The effect of grain shape and fracture on the interaction of high velocity granular slugs with rigid stationary targets is analysed for targets in normal and inclined orientations. The granular slugs comprise spherical, rodshaped or cubic grains and are constructed by connecting together spherical sub-particles with either rigid or beam connectors. The case when grain fracture is suppressed (ri...

The problem of steady subcritical free surface flow past a submerged inclined step is considered. The asymptotic limit of small Froude number is treated, with particular emphasis on the effect that changing the angle of the step face has on the surface waves. As demonstrated by Chapman & Vanden-Broeck, (2006) Exponential asymptotics and gravity waves. J. Fluid Mech. 567, 299–326, the divergence...
