In this paper, size dependent beam type peizoelectric energy hardvester is investigated. For this goal, first nonlinear formulation of isotropic piezoelectric Euler-Bernoulli nano-beam is developed based on the size-dependent piezoelectricity theory then special beam type piezoelectric energy hardvester is probed for different parameters. Basic nonlinear equations of piezoelectric nano-beam are...

in this article, the bending and free vibration analysis of functionally graded (fg) nanocomposites timoshenko beam model reinforced by single-walled boron nitride nanotube (swbnnt) using micro-mechanical approach embedded in an elastic medium is studied. the modified coupled stress (mcst) and nonlocal elasticity theories are developed to take into account the size-dependent effect. the mechani...

The paper deals with the mechanical behavior of a micro-beam bonded with two piezoelectric layers. The micro-beam is suspended over a fixed substrate and undergoes the both piezoelectric and electrostatic actuation. The piezoelectric layers are poled through the thickness and equipped with surface electrodes. The equation governing the micro-beam deflection under electrostatic pressure is deriv...

Segments of indentity-by-descent (IBD) detected from high-density genetic data are useful for many applications, including long-range phase determination, phasing family data, imputation, IBD mapping, and heritability analysis in founder populations. We present Refined IBD, a new method for IBD segment detection. Refined IBD achieves both computational efficiency and highly accurate IBD segment...

Multi-beam selection is one of the crucial technologies in hybrid beamforming systems for frequency-selective fading channels. Addressing the problem in the frequency domain facilitates the procedure of acquiring observations for analog beam selection. However, it is difficult to improve the quality of the contaminated observations at low SNR. To this end, this paper uses an idea that the signi...

Abstract. In this paper, an enhanced beam model based on a 5-parameter displacement field, recently proposed by the authors and able to reproduce Poisson effect in transverse direction is presented, utilized simulate fully geometrically nonlinear response of elastic structures. The adoption linear solution as approximation functions for case allows prediction problems involving complex geometri...

In this article, in reference to the modified couple stress theory and Euler-Bernoulli beam theory, the free lateral vibration response of a micro-beam carrying a moveable attached mass is investigated.
