In this study, free vibration of functionally graded rectangular plates for various types of boundary conditions has been presented . The properties of the plate are assumed as power- law form along the thickness direction , while poisson's ratio is kept constant. the linear vibration equations of functionally graded rectangular plates are derived based on first order shear deformation theory b...

We study a vectorial approximation problem based on thin plate spline with tension involving two positive parameters one for a control of the oscillations and the other one allows a control on the divergence and rotational components of the field. The existence and uniqueness of the solution is proved and the solution is explicitly given. We study the limit problems and the convergence problem ...

In this study, the analysis of transverse vibrations of rectangular plate with circular central hole with different boundary conditions is studied and the natural frequencies and natural modes of a rectangular plate with circular hole have been obtained. To solve the problem, it is necessary to use both Cartesian and polar coordinate system. The complexity of the method is to apply an appropria...

We describe a model-based method of generating realistic mass lesions and placing them in appropriate locations on normal mammogram backgrounds. These lesions are highly irregular in shape and have no consistent internal landmarks. Thin plate splines are used both in modelling the background to each lesion, and to warp examples when training an appearance model.

Problem statement: Rectangular steel plates are widely used in various steel structures and steel industries. For a proper design of steel plate structures and efficient use of material, the behavior, strength, buckling and post-buckling characteristics of plates should be accurately determined. Approach: Considering the significance of this matter, lateral vibration of thick rectangular plates...

This paper presents an investigation into the performance evaluation of Finite Difference (FD) method in modeling a rectangular thin plate structure. In case of complex and big construction systems subjected to the arbitrary loads, including a complex boundary conditions, solving of differential equations by analytical methods is almost impossible. Then the solution is application of numerical ...

In this article, we present anisotropic conductivity measurements by using two kinds of multimode rectangular cavities. Plate-laminated waveguides are fabricated diffusion bonding etched thin metal plates and their sidewalls have characteristics. The is measured cavities when polarization vertical or horizontal to the lamination direction. Transmission characteristics calculated resonant freque...

In order to accurately detect the various sizes of vehicle license plates which are included in input image, we introduce hierarchical approach and overlapped partitioning technique in this paper. The proposed approach firstly attempts the license plate detection for entire image. If detection is failed, the image is partitioned into 3 overlapped rectangular areas and the license plate detectio...
