The X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) has been measured at the Co K edge in hcp-Co and R-Co compounds (R=La, Tb, Dy). The structure of the experimental XMCD spectra in the near-edge region has been observed to be highly sensitive to the magnetic environment of the absorbing site. Calculations of the XMCD have been carried out at the Co K edge in Co 1 metal, LaCo 5 and TbCo 5 within the m...

In this paper, we present extensive molecular mechanics and molecular dynamics studies on the energy, structure, mechanical and vibrational properties of single-wall carbon nanotubes. In our study we employed an accurate interaction potential derived from quantum mechanics. We explored the stability domains of circular and collapsed cross section structures of armchair (n,n), zigzag (n, 0), and...

Numerical methods are not always convergent especially in higher velocities when shock waves are involved. A comparison analysis is performed to study the supersonic flow over conical bodies of three different cross sections circular, elliptic and squircle (square with rounded corners) shaped using  Perturbation techniques to find flow variables analytically. In order to find lift and drag forc...

In this paper, the cooling performance of water-cooled heat sinks for heat dissipation from electronic components is investigated numerically. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations are carried out to study the rectangular and circular cross-sectional shaped heat sinks. The sectional geometry of channels affects the flow and heat transfer characteristics of minichannel heat sinks. T...

Victor L. Berdichevsky Mechanical Engineering, Wayne State University, Detroit MI 48202 USA; e-mail: [email protected] (Dated: March 2016) Abstract A continuum theory of dislocations is suggested which is capable of predicting the equilibrium distributions of a large number of screw dislocations in anisotropic beams with arbitrary cross-section. The theory leads to a boundary value problem wi...
