We present models of localized plastic deformation inside Persistent Slip Band channels. First, we investigate the interaction between screw dislocations as they pass one another inside channel walls in copper. The model shows the mechanisms of dislocation bowing, dipole formation and binding, and finally dipole destruction as screw dislocations pass one another. The mechanism of (dipole passin...

In the present research, free vibration and modal stress analyses of thin circular plates with arbitrary edge conditions, resting on two-parameter elastic foundations are investigated.  Both Pasternak and Winkler parameters are adopted to model the elastic foundation. The differential transform method (DTM) is used to solve the eigenvalue equation yielding the natural frequencies and mode shape...

conclusions lead contamination in the presence of an emf exacerbates the oxidative damage to plasma proteins as well as the conformational changes in hb. an artificial neural network can be used as a predictive tool for the oxidative danger posed to workers in industrial fields, battery manufacturing companies, and power plants. patients and methods in this experimental study, the blood samples...

In this paper, the effect of interference fit on fatigue life of holed plate of mechanical joints was investigated experimentally. Fatigue tests were carried out on the holed specimens of Al-alloy 7075-T6 alloy. The interference fit process consists of force fitting a fastener into the hole with a negative clearance (diameter of the fastener is larger than of the hole) that produces beneficial ...

This paper presents digital video filters labs for final year engineering students. The project deals with the implementation of Canny Deriche optimal edge detectors on a FPGA plateform. The target of these labs is to illustrate the design of integrated electronic systems and to introduce the concept of architecture/algorithm adequacy.

poplars are classified as fast-growing and slightly water tolerant species which will be weakened with decreased growth in extreme moisture or drought lands. the plantation of these species in agricultural lands and at the edge of rivers and water canals has currenthy an important role in both economical and social development of rural regions. the purpose of this study was to investigate and c...

The problem of potential flow of a second-order fluid around an ellipsoid is solved, following general expressions in Lamb (1993), and the flow and stress fields are computed. The flow fields are determined by the harmonic potential but the stress fields depend on viscosity and the parameters of the second-order fluid. The stress fields on the surface of a tri-axial ellipsoid depend strongly on...

One of the most fundamental features of digital image and the basic steps in image processing, analysis, pattern recognition and computer vision is the edge of an image where the preciseness and reliability of its results will affect directly on the comprehension machine system made objective world. Several edge detectors have been developed in the past decades, although no single edge detector...

In this paper constrained Gradient Vector Flow (GVF) field generation is performed, for fast and accurate unsupervised stereoscopic semantic segmentation. The scheme utilizes the information provided by a depth segments map, produced by stereo analysis methods and incorporation of a segmentation algorithm. Then a Canny edge detector is applied to the depth region and produces an edge map. The e...

in order to determine the effects of zinc foliar application on yield and its components single cross 704 under water stress condition, experiment was carried out at agricultural research center of varamin, in southeast of tehran, during 2007-2008. field experiment was conducted in split plot design based on randomized completely block at three replications. main plots included water stress at ...
