Generation and dissipation of temperature-induced pore water pressure can alter the mechanical behavior characteristics soil media. Experimental observations indicate that heating/cooling cycles fabric which may result in irrecoverable deformations. Previous studies suggest contribution thermo-osmotic (non-Darcian) flow clays have a significant role thermal pressurization diffusion. Hence, this...

Present paper is devoted to stress and deformation analyses of heated variable thickness functionally graded (FG) circular plate with clamped supported, embedded on a gradient elastic foundation and subjected to non-uniform transverse load. The plate is coupled by an elastic medium which is simulated as a Winkler- Pasternak foundation with gradient coefficients in the radial and circumferential...

The need for tunable optical transmitters in optical networking is growing at a rapid rate. A tunable optical transmitter is the combination of a tunable laser, an isolator, and a modulator. Although today lasers and modulators could be integrated together on a single chip, an integrated component of this type would not be useful because the absence of an isolator between the two elements would...

The paper concerns the evaluation of the thermal behaviour of an underground repository of the spent nuclear fuel where the canisters are disposed at a vertical position in the horizontal tunnels. The formulation of thermo-elastic problems should regard the basic steps of the construction of the repository. We tested the influence of the distance between the deposition places on the thermo-elas...

in present study, thermo-elastic buckling analysis of multi-layer orthotropic annular/circular graphene sheets is investigated based on eringen’s theory. the moderately thick and also thick nano-plates are considered. using the non-local first and third order shear deformation theories, the governing equations are derived. the van der waals interaction between the layers is simulated for multi-...

Electro- and magneto-optical phenomena play key roles in photonic technology enabling light modulators, optical data storage, sensors and numerous spectroscopic techniques. Optical effects, linear and quadratic in external electric and magnetic field are widely known and comprehensively studied. However, optical phenomena that depend on the simultaneous application of external electric and magn...

In this research, wave propagation analysis in polymeric smart nanocomposite micro-tubes reinforced by single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) conveying fluid is studied. The surrounded elastic medium is simulated by visco-Pasternak model while the composite micro-tube undergoes electro-magneto-mechanical fields. By means of micromechanics method, the constitutive structural coefficients of nano...

In this article, the effect of size-dependent on the buckling and vibration analysis of functionally graded (FG) double-layer boron nitride plate based on classical plate theory (CPT) under electro-thermo-mechanical loadings which is surrounded by elastic foundation is examined. This subject is developed using modified couple stress theory. Using Hamilton's principle, the governing equations of...
