چکیده

Electrical Impedance Tomography applied in the mammography geometry has shown promise in the early detection of breast cancer. However, improvements are continually sought to improve the accuracy of static reconstructions. For this reason we present an initial framework outlining the implementation of a 3D FEM reconstructor for the mammography geometry using the complete electrode model.

Optimization of die geometry for Tube Channel Pressing

Since tubes have numerous industrial applications, different attempts are focused on the Severe Plastic Deformation (SPD) processes of tubes. As an illustration, Tube Channel Pressing (TCP) is an attractive process for this purpose since it can be used for processing of different sizes of tubes. However, more attempts are needed to improve the outcomes of TCP. For example, imposing of greater s...

Effect of Exponentially-Varying Properties on Displacements and Stresses in Pressurized Functionally Graded Thick Spherical Shells with Using Iterative Technique

A semi-analytical iterative method as one of the newest analytical methods is used for the elastic analysis of thick-walled spherical pressure vessels made of functionally graded materials subjected to internal pressure. This method is accurate, fast and has a reasonable order of convergence. It is assumed that material properties except Poisson’s ratio are graded through the thickness directio...

New geometry for TCP: severe plastic deformation of tubes

Since tubes are widely used for different industrial applications, processing of tubes by the Severe Plastic Deformation (SPD) method has been the target of different attempts. Among these attempts, development of SPD processes for tubes based on Equal Channel Angular Pressing (ECAP) has been more successful. As an illustration, Tube Channel Pressing (TCP) has been presented as an attractive SP...

Interactive Software Visualization within the RECONSTRUCTOR Project (RECONSTRUCTOR: Reconstructing Software Architectures for System Evaluation Purposes)

A software architecture is an abstraction of a software system, which is indispensable for many software engineering tasks. Unfortunately, in many cases architectural information is not available, outdated, or inappropriate for the task at hand. Software architecture reconstruction concerns obtaining architectural information from an existing system. Currently, this process is unstructured, req...
