Annular rotating disks optimal with respect to mixed creep rupture

a semi-analytical solution for time-variant thermoelastic creep analysis of functionally graded rotating disks with variable thickness and properties.

abstract: a time domain semi-analytical solution to study thermoelastic creep behavior of  functionally graded rotating axisymmetric disks with variable thickness is presented. the rate type governing differential equations for the considered structure are derived and analytically solved. to solve these  equations, the disk is divided into some virtual sub-domains. general solution of  equilibr...

Edge Crack Studies in Rotating FGM Disks

This article focused on the stress analysis of an edge crack in a thin hallow rotating functionally graded material (FGM) disk. The disk is assumed to be isotropic with exponentially varying elastic modulus in the radial direction. A comprehensive study is carried out for various combinations of the crack length and orientation with the different gradation of materials. The effect of non-unifor...

Annular abscess leading to free wall rupture.

a comparison of teachers and supervisors, with respect to teacher efficacy and reflection

supervisors play an undeniable role in training teachers, before starting their professional experience by preparing them, at the initial years of their teaching by checking their work within the proper framework, and later on during their teaching by assessing their progress. but surprisingly, exploring their attributes, professional demands, and qualifications has remained a neglected theme i...

String-Wrapped Rotating Disks

Let the centers of a finite number of disjoint, closed disks be pinned to the plane, but with each free to rotate about its center. Given an arrangement of such disks with each labeled + or −, we investigate the question of whether they can be all wrapped by a single loop of string so that, when the string is taut and circulates, it rotates by friction all the (+)-disks counterclockwise and all...
