Novel analytical solutions with closed-form expressions for the stress and displacement fields of short fiber reinforced composites (SFRCs) prediction their effective thermo-elastic properties are presented. The cylindrical SFRC unit-cells periodic boundary conditions subjected to axial transverse stresses as well thermally induced residual stresses. By comparison available numerical solutions,...

We present a set of new, semi-analytical solutions to simulate three-dimensional contaminant transport subject to first-order chain-decay reactions. The aquifer is assumed to be areally semi-infinite, but finite in thickness. The analytical solution can treat the transformation of contaminants into daughter products, leading to decay chains consisting of multiple contaminant species and various...

The SGBEM-FEM alternating method suitable for the solution of elastic and elasticplastic three-dimensional fracture mechanics problems is presented. The crack is modeled by the symmetric Galerkin boundary element method (SGBEM), as a distribution of displacement discontinuities in an infinite medium. The finite element method (FEM) is used for stress analysis of the uncracked finite body. The s...

Based on the Frobenius series method, stresses analysis of the functionally graded rotating thick cylindrical pressure vessels (FGRTCPV) are examined. The vessel is considered in both plane stress and plane strain conditions. All of the cylindrical shell properties except the Poisson ratio are considered exponential function along the radial direction. The governing Navier equation for this pro...

In this paper, we report theoretical and numerical solutions of linear and nonlinear elastic waves in a thin rod. First, the classical solution of linear elastic wave in a thin rod is adapted such that it is ready to be compared with the numerical solution of a nonlinear formulation. Based on mass and momentum conservation, we then derive several forms of modeling equations for nonlinear elasti...

The goal of this work is to build semi-analytical solutions the Rikitake-type system by means optimal homotopy perturbation method (OHPM) using only two iterations. chaotic behaviors are excepted. By taking into consideration geometrical properties system, closed-form can be established. obtained have a periodical behavior. These allow reducing initial second-order nonlinear differential equati...

The elastic moduli of tumors change during their pathological evolution. Elastographic imaging has potential for detecting and characterizing cancers by mapping the stiffness distribution in tissues. In this paper a micromechanics-based analytical method was developed to detect the location, size, and elastic modulus of a tumor mass embedded in a symmetric two-dimensional breast tissue. A close...

In the following paper, free vibration analysis of two directional FGM circular nano-plate on the elastic medium is investigated. The elastic modulus of plate varies in both radial and thickness directions. Eringen’s theory was employed to the analysis of circular nano-plate with variation in material properties. Simultaneous variations of the material properties in the radial and transverse di...

In this paper, an elastic constitutive model based on the Eulerian corotational rate of the logarithmic strain tensor is proposed. Using this model, the large deformation of a closed cycle containing tension, shear, compression and inverse shear is analyzed. Since the deformation path includes a closed cycle and the material is considered as an isotropic elastic material, the normal and shear c...
