in this paper, the mechanical behavior of three-phase inhomogeneous materials is modeled using the meso-scale model with lattice beams for static and dynamic analyses. the timoshenko beam theory is applied instead of the classical euler-bernoulli beam theory and the mechanical properties of lattice beam connection are derived based on the continuum medium using the non-local continuum theory. t...

photocatalytic degradation of toxic organic compound in water, soil and air by semiconductor catalysts such as tio2 and zno have received much attention over the last two decades. however, the low quantum yield, easy agglomeration and difficult post-separation of these inorganic catalysts limit their application for large-scale applications. metal-organic frameworks (mofs) are the latest class ...

objective: the aim of this study was to evaluate the dimensional stability of casts made from an alginate impression material poured immediately and stored after specific periods. materials and methods: the common alginate used in iran (super; iralgin, golchai co., tehran, iran) was tested. a master model was mounted on a special device and used to obtain the impressions. these impressions were...

background: monte carlo simulations play a vital role in the calculation of the necessary shielding both for neutrons and photons. advanced and simple shielding materials against neutron and gamma rays were compared by simulation using the mcnb4b monte carlo code. the simulations were carried out for the three common neutron sources, namely the 252cf, the 241am/be and the dd neutron generator w...
