In this paper, the buckling of non-homogeneous isotropic truncated conical shells under uniform lateral pressure and resting on a Winkler foundation is investigated. The basic relations and governing equations have been obtained for non-homogeneous truncated conical shells. The critical uniform lateral pressures of non-homogeneous isotropic truncated conical shells with or without a Winkler fou...

We demonstrate material phase identification by measuring polychromatic diffraction spots from samples at least 20 mm in diameter and up to 10 mm thick with an energy resolving point detector. Within our method an annular X-ray beam in the form of a conical shell is incident with its symmetry axis normal to an extended polycrystalline sample. The detector is configured to receive diffracted flu...

Unusual single-pulse behaviour has been identified in two pulsars, B0919+06 and B1859+07. Both stars normally emit bright subpulses in a region near the trailing edge of their profile. However, they occasionally undergo ‘events’, whereby the emission longitude gradually decreases by about their profile width, remains in this position for typically several tens of pulses, and then gradually retu...

We propose a diagnostic technique to detect instability waves in a round jet using a conical microphone array. The detection algorithm is analogous to the beam-forming technique, which is used with a far-field microphone array to localize noise sources. By replacing the reference solutions used in the conventional beam-forming with eigenfunctions from a linear stability analysis, the amplitude ...

Multimode quantum correlations and entanglements has drawn much attention recently due to its importance for both fundamental science the future development of information processing communication. Here, by using a four-wave mixing process with conical pump beam probe beam, we experimentally generate multimode between conjugate also observe about –2.6-dB intensity-difference squeezing these two...

In this paper, an exact closed-form solution is presented for free vibration analysis of Euler-Bernoulli conical and tapered beams carrying any desired number of attached masses. The concentrated masses are modeled by Dirac’s delta functions which creates no need for implementation of compatibility conditions. The proposed technique explicitly provides frequency equation and corresponding mode ...

Taking Bessel beams ~J0 beam! as a representation of a conical beam, and a slowly varying envelope approximation ~SVEA! we obtain the results for the theory of third-harmonic generation from an atomic medium. We demonstrate how the phenomenon of self-phase-matching is contained in the transverse-phasematching integral of the theory. A method to calculate the transverse-phase-matching integral c...

This paper presents the design of a tri-mode matched feed horn to remove the beam squinting effects in a circularly polarized offset parabolic reflector antenna. In a conical horn, three modes i.e., TE11, TM11 and TE21 are combined in proper amplitude and phase proportion to obtain a tri-mode matched feed configuration. The proposed tri-mode horn is then used as a primary feed device to illumin...

Leaky-wave antennas use a traveling wave to radiate continuously along a radiating aperture in order to produce a focused beam of radiation. Planar leaky-wave antennas are particularly attractive since they use simple dielectric layers and/or metallic screens over a grounded substrate layer. A simple source such as a dipole or slot inside the substrate or on the ground plane excites the leaky w...

Distributions of nitric oxide vibrational temperature, rotational temperature and velocity have been measured in the hypersonic freestream at the exit of a conical nozzle , using planar laser-induced fluorescence. Particular attention has been devoted to reducing the major sources of systematic error that can affect fluorescence temperature measurements, including beam attenuation, transition s...
