in this study, nonlocal nonlinear instability and the vibration of a double carbon nanotube (cnt) system have been investigated. the visco-pasternak model is used to simulate the elastic medium between nanotubes, on which the effect of the spring, shear and damping of the elastic medium is considered. both of the cnts convey a viscose fluid and a uniform longitudinal magnetic field is applied t...

In this paper a procedure for simulating deformable elastic body rigid body interaction is presented. The interaction is described by multiple impacts during the dynamical process. An elastic body modeled as a 3D particles system is proposed, in response to the dynamic impacting force. The contact between particles is modeled with elastic springs. The expression for the spring elastic constants...

Rubber-like materials can undergo very large strains in a quasi-reversible way. This remarkable behavior is often called hyper (or entropic) elasticity. However, the presence of mechanical loops during a load-unload cycle is not consistent with a purely elastic behavior modeling. Using Digital Image Correlation and Infra-Red Thermography, the present study aims at observing and quantifying diss...

Using a simple and precise instrument system, we directly measured the thermo-physical properties of one-dimensional highly aligned carbon nanotubes (CNTs). A kind of CNT-based macroscopic materials named super aligned carbon nanotube (SACNT) buckypapers was measured in our experiment. We defined a new one-dimensional parameter, the "thermal transfer speed" to characterize the thermal damping m...

We study the behavior in time of solutions to several systems equations for porous-thermo-elastic problems when one variables is considered be quasi-static or, other words, whose second derivative can neglected. analyze three different situations using classical Fourier law and also type II or III Green–Naghdi heat conduction models.

The contribution of foundation damping to offshore wind turbines (OWTs) is not well known, though researchers have back-calculated foundation damping from “rotor-stop” tests after estimating aerodynamic, hydrodynamic, and structural damping with numerical models. Because design guidelines do not currently recommend methods for determining foundation damping, it is typically neglected. This pape...

We continue the development of the super-grid-scale model initiated in [T. Colonius, H. Ran, A super-grid-scale model for simulating compressible flow on unbounded domains, J. Comput. Phys. 182 (1) (2002) 191–212] and consider its application to linear hyperbolic systems. The super-grid-scale model consists of two parts: reduction of an unbounded to a bounded domain by a smooth coordinate trans...
