In this paper, we present a comparative numerical analysis to determine the refractive index of photonic crystal fibers (PCFs) by using FDFD method and used the results to evaluate the confinement losses of PCFs by considering the effects of air-hole rings in the cladding. It is shown that by increasing the wavelength, the imaginary part of refraction index rises, resulting in increase of conf...

Stress concentration factors have been examined in a functionally graded material (FGM) plate with central holes in different shapes in this essay. The material properties change along the thickness of plate. ABAQUS software has been utilized for modeling of problem in which subroutine of ABAQUS sub-program was used for modeling of the targeted material. The considering shapes for hole in plate...

We study a Caputo time fractional degenerate diffusion equation which we prove to be equivalent the parabolic obstacle problem, showing that its solution evolves for any α∈(0,1) same stationary state, of classic elliptic problem. The only thing changes with α is convergence speed. also problem from numerical point view, comparing some finite different approaches, and results tests. These extend...

The methanolic leaf extract of Thuja occidentalis was evaluated for possible sedative activities in mice. Sedative activity was evaluated by using hole cross, open field, thiopental sodium-induced sleeping time and elevated-plus maze (EPM) tests at 200mg/kg and 400 mg/kg.  The extract decreased the locomotor activity of mice in hole cross, open field and EPM test and showed the remarka...

Abstract: In this study, the effect of fuel injection discharge curve and injection pressure simultaneously for upgrading power of heavy duty diesel engine by simulation of combustion process in AVL-Fire software are discussed. Hence, the fuel injection discharge curve was changed from semi-triangular to rectangular which is usual in common rail fuel injection system. Injection pressure with r...
