Using a general theory for evolution inclusions, existence and uniqueness theorems are obtained for weak solutions to a frictional dynamic contact problem for elastic visco-plastic material. An existence theorem in the case where the friction coefficient is discontinuous is also presented.

Fractional calculus has been proved to be very effective in representing the visco-elastic relaxation response of materials with memory such as polymers. Moreover, modeling temperature dependency material functions thermo-visco-elasticity, standard time–temperature superposition principle is known ineffective most cases (thermo-rheological complexity). In this work, a novel finite element formu...

The unsteady flow of a visco-elastic Maxwell fluid through a rectilinear pipe having its cross-section as a parallelogram under the influence of a axial pressure gradient (I) varying linearly with time , and (II) decreasing exponentially with time has been discussed in the present paper. Variables separable and Laplace transform methods have been used to solve the problem.  

This paper describes a scalable approach to simulation of decentralized adaptive signal control systems, motivated by our interest to provide a basis for assessing the benefit of the Surtrac adaptive signal control system at a potential deployment site in advance of installation. The approach centers around a simulation controller interface called VISCO, which links the VISSIM microscopic traff...

Cysticercosis in anterior chamber (AC) is rarer than in other ocular sites. And it is usually associated with plastic iridocyclitis. We report herein a case of a live cyst in the AC. The cyst was removed intact through limbal incision by visco expression technique. Histopathology confirmed cysticercosis cellulosae as the infecting agent. Timely removal of cyst can save the eye from severe plast...
