Abstract: In this paper, the forming process of a central hub by radial-forward extrusion is analyzed by using the finite element software, ABAQUS. Radial-forward extrusion is used to produce hollow parts that generally feature a central hub with radial protrusions. Effective design factors such as mandrel diameter, die corner radius, die fillet radius, mandrel corner radius, tube wall thick...

In this paper ,the general solution of steady-state one dimensional asymmetric thermal stresses and electrical and mechanical displacements of a hollow cylinder made of functionally graded material and piezoelectric layers is developed .The material properties ,except the Poisson's ration, are assumed to depend on the variable radius and they are expressed as power functions of radius. The temp...

In this paper, we discuss some properties of joint spectral {radius(jsr)} and  generalized spectral radius(gsr)  for a finite set of upper triangular matrices with entries in a Banach algebra and represent relation between geometric and joint/generalized spectral radius. Some of these are in scalar matrices, but  some are different. For example for a bounded set of scalar matrices,$Sigma$, $r_*...

In this paper, a multi-objective optimization method is implemented by using of genetic algorithm techniques in order to determine optimum configuration of solar chimney power plant. The objective function which is simultaneously considered in the analysis is output power of the plant. Output power of the system is maximized. Design parameters of the considered plant include collector radius (R...

This paper proves several new inequalities for the Euclidean operator radius, which refine some recent results. It is shown that results are much more accurate than related, recently published Moreover, both symmetric and non-symmetric Hilbert space operators studied.

for an n-by-n complex matrix a in a block form with the (possibly) nonzero blocks only on the diagonal above the main one, we consider two other matrices whose nonzero entries are along the diagonal above the main one and consist of the norms or minimum moduli of the diagonal blocks of a. in this paper, we obtain two inequalities relating the numeical radii of these matrices and also determine ...
