Abstract: Through introducing the analytical solution of the transient heat conduction problem of the plate with convection into the thermal stress field model of the elastic plate, the stress reduction factor was presented explicitly in its dimensionless form. A new stress reduction factor was introduced for...
Abstract: In the framework of finite deformation theory, the plastic collapse analysis of thin-walled pipes subjected to internal pressure was conducted on the basis of the unified strength criterion (USC). An analytical solution of burst pressure for pipes with capped ends was derived, which included the str...
Abstract: Starting with the governing equations in terms of displacements of threedimensional elastic medium, the solutions of displacement components and their first derivatives were obtained by the application of a double Fourier transform and an order reduction method based on the CayleyHamilton theorem....
Abstract: The vibration stability and active control of the parametrically excited nonlinear beam structures were studied using the piezoelectric material. The velocity feedback control algorithm was applied to obtain the active damping. The cubic nonlinear equation of motion with damping was established by e...
Abstract: Conformal invariance and conserved quantities for the nonholonomic system of Chetaev’s type with variable mass were studied. The conformal factor expressions were deduced. The necessary and sufficient conditions that the system’s conformal invariance would be Lie symmetry were obtained. The conforma...
Abstract: The Dufour and Soret effects on the two dimensional MHD steady flow of electrically conducting viscous fluid bounded by infinite sheets were examined. An incompressible viscous fluid filled the porous space. Mathematical analysis was performed in the presence of viscous dissipation, Joule heating an...
Abstract: Pseudoplastic circular Couette flow in annulus was investigated. The viscosity was dependent on the shear rate which directly affected the conservation equations that were solved by the spectral method in the present study. The pseudoplastic model adopted here proved suitable representative of nonli...
Abstract: Flow over a backward facing step (BFS) has been taken as a useful prototype to investigate characteristics of separated flow with heat transfer. However, to date the study on the effect of Richardson number on entropy generation over BFS is absent yet although the flow pattern and heat transfer char...
Abstract: The prime objective of the present study was to examine the effect of temperature dependent viscosity on the revolving axi-symmetric laminar boundary layer flow of incompressible, electrically nonconducting ferrofluid in the presence of a stationary plate subjected to a magnetic field and maintaine...
Abstract: The immersed boundary method was an effective technique for modeling and simulating fluid-structure interactions especially in the area of biomechanics. The effect of the regularized delta function on its accuracy was an important subject in the property study. The method of manufactured solutions w...
Abstract: A doublet integral equation was formulated for a two-dimensional dissipative potential flow around a hydrofoil submerged below the free-water surface. The free-water surface was assumed to involve energy dissipation and thus was source of damping. A doublet panel method was developed from incorporat...
