investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures
deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
A Continuum Model For Stone-wales Defected Carbon Nanotubes
In this paper, a continuum model is proposed so that a Stone-Wales (SW) defected carbon nanotube (CNT) is replaced by an initial circumferential crack in a continuum cylindrical shell. For this purpose, the critical energy release rate and then the fracture toughness of a defected CNT are calculated using the results of an existing atomistic-based continuum finite element simulation. Finally, t...
متن کاملthe use of appropriate madm model for ranking the vendors of mci equipments using fuzzy approach
abstract nowadays, the science of decision making has been paid to more attention due to the complexity of the problems of suppliers selection. as known, one of the efficient tools in economic and human resources development is the extension of communication networks in developing countries. so, the proper selection of suppliers of tc equipments is of concern very much. in this study, a ...
15 صفحه اولLandscape Ecology and Ecosystems Management
This publication introduces the concepts and principles of landscape ecology for managing wildlife and other natural resources. It is intended to raise public awareness and give an overview of a new philosophy and method for managing natural resources at the landscape level. A landscape is a heterogenous area composed of a cluster of interacting ecosystems that are repeated in various sizes, sh...
متن کاملa continuum/discontinuum micro plane damage model for concrete
analysis and prediction of structural response to static or dynamic loading requires prediction of concrete response tovariable load histories. the constitutive equations for the mechanical behavior of concrete capable of seeing damage effects or crack growth procedure under loading/unloading/reloading was developed upon micro-plane framework. the proposed damage formulation has been built on t...
