The hydrostatic extrusion is a new method of extrusion process. The most important advantage of this method is reduction of friction and close tolerance for the coating thickness. In this study, the hydrostatic extrusion simulation of bimetallic wires has performed using of finite element method. In the following the advantages of hydrostatic extrusion compared to the direct extrusion are prese...

This study investigates the time-dependent long-term creep strain in a composite cylinder made of glass/vinylester with a unidirectional ply. The cylinder is subjected to an internal pressure and the boundary condition is free–free and acts as thermal insulation. The classical lamination theory (CLT) is used to derive the governing equations as a second-order equation to determine the radial, c...

Downfall flows from different outlet hydraulic structures such as culverts and jetsthrowingtothe erodible downstream bed cause scour hole and changes in the downstream bed topography. Therefore,by performing some physical modeling tests on culvert jet flow under different angles, changes in the downstream bed topography under the effect of different parameters such as flow rate, depth of the ta...

This paper develops a Finite Element Model (FEM) for 138 kV High Temperature Vulcanized (HTV) Silicone Rubber (SiR) transmission insulator in which, first step, leakage current is calculated different non-uniform continuous and discontinuous pollution deposits then features based on the phase shift between applied voltage are extracted each kind of layer to identify existence dry bands surface....

We present an ESPRIT-based algorithm that yields extended-aperture two-dimensional (2D) arrival angle and carrier frequency estimates with a sparse uniform array of electromagnetic vector sensors. The ESPRIT-based frequency estimates are first achieved by using the temporal invariance structure out of the two time-delayed sets of data collected from vector sensor array. Each incident source’s c...

the available shear correction factors have mainly been developed for homogeneous isotropic plates and/or assuming that no shear tractions are imposed on the top and bottom surfaces of the plate. in the present research, a more general case of a circular functionally graded plate subjected to non-uniform normal and shear tractions at the top and bottom surfaces is considered. these non-uniform ...

The μ(I)-rheology is a nonlinear viscous law, with a strain-rate invariant and pressure-dependent viscosity, that has proved to be effective at modelling dry granular flows in the intermediate range of the inertial number, I. This paper shows how to incorporate the rheology into depth-averaged granular avalanche models. To leading order, the rheology generates an effective basal friction, which...

Nonuniform conduction may cause block and/or delay, thereby providing a substrate for the onset and maintenance of reentrant atrial arrhythmias. We tested the hypothesis that linear triple-site, bipolar, rapid pacing (LTSBRP) of the right atrium generates more uniform wave-front propagation compared with single-site, bipolar, rapid pacing (SSBRP), thereby reducing and/or eliminating conduction ...

In this paper, we propose a computationally efficient spatial differencing matrix set (SDMS) method for two-dimensional direction of arrival (2D DOA) estimation with uniform rectangular arrays (URAs) in a low-grazing angle (LGA) condition. By rearranging the auto-correlation and cross-correlation matrices in turn among different subarrays, the SDMS method can estimate the two parameters indepen...
