Torsion of many symmetric structures, which were designed based on the seismic codes, is due to their asymmetricity induced during inelastic behavior. Although the structure was designed symmetrically assuming elastic based criteria, different factors such as material inconsistency in structure, construction details discrepancy and construction errors may result in asymmetric behavior in inelas...

In this paper, we get the time evolution equations of curvature and torsion evolving spacelike curves in Minkowski space. Also, give inextensible evolutions timelike ruled surfaces that are produced by normal binormal vector fields curve derive necessary conditions for an inelastic surface evolution. Then, compute coefficients first second fundamental forms, Gauss mean curvatures special surfac...

The electron-phonon interaction is the dominant mechanism of inelastic scattering in molecular junctions. Here we report on its effect on the thermoelectric properties of single-molecule devices. Using density functional theory and the nonequilibrium Green’s function formalism we calculate the thermoelectric figure of merit for a biphenyl-dithiol molecule between two Al electrodes under an appl...

In this paper the effects of the strain rate on the inelastic behavior and the self-heating under load conditions are presented for polymeric materials, such as polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), polycarbonate (PC), and polyamide (PA66). By a torsion test, it was established that the shear yield stress behavior of PMMA, PC, and PA66 is well-described by the Ree-Eyring theory in the range of the co...

We have investigated the dissipation (Q-1) using the torsion pendulum technique for pure 3He and 3He-4He mixtures in silica aerogel near the 3He superfluid transition (T(c)) in aerogel. With pure 3He the Q-1 decreases at the onset of superfluidity. When phase separated 3He-4He mixtures are introduced into the aerogel, the Q-1 does not decrease as rapidly and eventually increases for the highest...
