In this paper, free and forced vibration of simply-supported Single-walled carbon nanotube is investigated under the moving nanoparticle by considering nonlocal cylindrical shell model. To validate the theoretical results, modal analysis of nanotube is conducted using ANSYS commercial software. Excellent agreement is exhibited between the results of two different methods. Furthermore, the dynam...

The concept of floating submerged tunnels becomes increasingly attractive idea to cross the straits. The structural solution in these bridges includes buoyancy force on tunnel body plus tension in mooring tethers. This paper investigates the effect of submergence on the dynamic response of submerged floating tunnels due to moving load. The inertial effect of the fluid on the submerged structure...

Cardiac catheters allow physicians to access the inside of the heart and perform therapeutic interventions without stopping the heart or opening the chest. However, conventional manual and actuated cardiac catheters are currently unable to precisely track and manipulate the intracardiac tissue structures because of the fast tissue motion and potential for applying damaging forces. This paper ad...

Tracking across non-overlapping cameras is a challenging open problem in video surveillance. In this paper, we propose a novel target re-identification method that models movements in non-observed areas with a modified Social Force Model (SFM) by exploiting the map of the site under surveillance. The SFM is developed with a goal-driven approach that models the desire of people to reach specific...

We investigate the problem of forces on moving vortex in a superfluid or superconductor. The main purpose is to locate the source which leads to the contradictory results in the literature. We establish the connection between this problem to the difficult but well studied subject of resistivity formula in transport theory. The relaxation time approximation used in the force calculation via forc...

In this paper, transverse and longitudinal vibration of nonlinear plate under exciting of orbiting mass is considered based on first-order shear deformation theory. The nonlinear governing equation of motion are discretized by the finite element method in combination with Newmark’s time integration scheme under von Karman strain-displacement assumptions. For validation of method and formulation...

in this paper, the interactions of flow over two circular or rectangular cylinders, passing by each other, have been investigated, using overset grids method. two-dimensional incompressible governing fluid flow equations are solved using finite volume method. in this research, several interpolation methods have been tested to transfer data between grids. one of them called mass flux base interp...

A new type of permanent magnet actuator driven by electromagnetic repulsive force in breaking course and electromagnetic attraction force during closing course is presented in this paper, and the static and dynamic characteristics for contactor with this new type actuator are mainly focused on by simulation and experiment simultaneously. Firstly, the static electromagnetic attraction force in c...

effects of hall current, ion-slip and coriolis force on unsteady mhd couette-hartmann flow of a viscous incompressible electrically conducting fluid through a porous medium bounded by porous plates in the presence of a uniform transverse magnetic field which is either fixed relative to the fluid or to the moving porous plate is investigated using laplace transform technique. the expressions for...

in this research using the theory of induction motor (um), a um with liquid as secondary part is planned and manufactured. the main objective for planning of this motor is to investigate the possibility of chemical liquids pumping such as liquid poison and acids. results of many laboratory tests are shown to conclude that pumping force in the manufactured pump is dependent on many factors su...
