in this paper, a general elastoplastic-damage constitutive model considering the effect of strain rate has been developed. the derivation of this model has been cast into the irreversible thermodynamics with internal variables within the fundamentals of continuum damage mechanics (cdm). the rate effect has been involved as an additional term into the plastic yield surface (dynamic plastic yield...

Future developments in AI and robotics, brain interfaces, the Internet and virtual and augmented reality, will make possible new types of integration of humans and machines which will change how we think, learn and live. This paper uses a story about a future scenario involving systems of this kind to respond to crises and disasters to explore the possibilities of collective intelligence and co...

Advancement of technologies is proving to be boon for researchers. Researchers can perform the experiments with the help of simulation by using the simulation techniques. This is based on the cellular automaton. Cellular automaton is gri d of cells acquiring the discrete values. For analyzing the internal mechanism of brain tumor growth and describing the brain structure phenomenon, simulation ...

Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) have evolved in the last years into standards in the communication world. By definition, they do not need any network infrastructure to facilitate communication between participating nodes. Therefore, they are dealing with new challenges in the context of ad hoc routing. In this paper, we present our new implementation of the ad hoc routing protocol Dynamic MANET...
