in this study, focuses on applying the hp-version for forward modeling. the eit forward solver is normally based on the conventional finite element method (hfem). in h-fem, the polynomial order p of the element shape functions is constant and the element size h, is decreased. to accurately simulate the forward solution with the hfem, a mesh with large number of nodes and elements is usually need...

carbon nanotube (cnt) is considered as a new generation of material possessing superior mechanical, thermal and electrical properties. the applications of cnt, especially in composite materials, i.e. carbon nanotube reinforced polymer have received great attention and interest in recent years. to characterize the influence of cnt on the stress intensity factor of nanocomposites, three fracture ...

condition monitoring of bldc motors due to their important applications is gaining more and more significance. rotor eccentricity is one of the most important sources of faults in these motors. up to now, detection methods of this fault under nonstationary conditions are limited to complicated and time-consuming methods using wavelets and cohen class algorithms which are difficult to implement ...

numerical methods such as boundary element and finite element methods are widely used for the stress analysis in solid mechanics. this study presents boundary element method based on the displacement discontinuity formulation to solve general problems of interaction between hydraulic fracturing and discontinuities. the crack tip element and a higher order boundary displacement collocation techn...
