This study used structural equation modeling to investigate directional relationships between coping with interpersonal stress and received support. One hundred and seventy-seven undergraduates who had experienced interpersonal stress during the past month answered questions about coping with interpersonal stress and received support. Structural equation modeling based on third-order moment str...

In this paper, we formulate the problem of elastodynamic transformation cloaking for Kirchoff–Love plates and elastic with both in-plane out-of-plane displacements. A maps boundary-value an isotropic homogeneous plate (virtual problem) to that anisotropic inhomogeneous a hole surrounded by cloak is be designed (physical problem). For plates, governing equation virtual transformed physical up un...

This paper analyzes the effects of environmental elements on the psychological characteristics and performance of employees in manufacturing systems using structural equation modeling. Increasing the comprehension of these effects may help optimize manufacturing systems regarding their employees' psychological characteristics and performance from a macroergonomic perspective. As the method, a n...

A three-dimensional framework is established for generating invariant stress configurations and associated shifts in the elastic compliance. Under these shifts the stress throughout an elastic body is unaltered, while the compatibility equations for the strain are automatically satisfied. The types of invariant stress fields and translations of the compliance identified here generalize the resu...

This paper deals with a procedure to calculate the elastic stress intensity factors for arbitrary-shaped cracks in plane stress and plane strain problems. An assumed displacement.hybrid finite element model is employed wherein the unknowns in the final algebraic system of equations are the nodal displacements and the elastic stress intensity factors. Special elements, which contain proper singu...

In industrial rolling, changes in strain rate and temperature occur with strain during passes, and between one pass and the next. Plane strain compression testing has been used with ramped changes in strain rate during deformation, and with changes in strain rate between two deformations to study their effects on flow stress. No systematic deviations from a mechanical equation of state were fou...

The governing equations of a transversely isotropic dissipative medium are solved analytically to obtain the surface wave solutions. The appropriate solutions satisfy the required boundary conditions at the stress-free surface to obtain the frequency equation of Rayleigh wave. The numerical values of the non-dimensional speed of Rayleigh wave speed are computed for different values of frequency...

A new method is presented for accounting for microstructural features of flowing complex fluids at the level of mesoscopic, or coarse-grained, models by ensuring compatibility with macroscopic and continuum thermodynamics and classical transport phenomena. In this method, the microscopic state of the liquid is described by variables that are local expectation values of microscopic features. The...

Introduction. Static converters are among the most widely used equipment in several applications, for example, electric power transmission, motor speed variation, photovoltaic panels, which constitute electronic components. The design of a electronics device is done without any real means predicting electromagnetic disturbances during product development phase. This case-by-case process repeate...
