In this paper the application of the mesh-free method (MFM) for the elasto-plastic analysis of reinforced soils is studied for the first time. The applied mesh-free method is called the radial point interpolation method (RPIM). In MFM, unlike the finite element method (FEM), there is no need of mesh in the traditional sense, and the shape functions are based on nodes. In the present study the r...

Increasing numbers of people are vegan, vegetarian, or reducing meat consumption. There has also been growth in campaigns such as Meat Free Monday (MFM) that encourage and support reduced We conducted a mixed-method exploration the behaviour beliefs associated with eliminating An online questionnaire was completed by an opportunistic sample 655 aged 18–82 who were registered on MFM website, eat...

Two new dumbbell-shaped molecules based on two solubilizing and structuring triazatruxene (TAT) units linked by a central chromophore were synthesized studied. The was an electro-deficient fluorene-malononitrile (FM) unit, that can be functionalized symmetrically different positions, giving rise to positional isomers, called TAT-pFM TAT-mFM, when the TATs are connected 2,7- 3,6-positions, respe...

MFM probes with high switching fields have been synthesized by depositing Cr/SmCo5/Cr trilayers onto commercial Si AFM probes. The maximum field values of the (between 4 T and 5 for annealed at 550 °C min) is lower than coercivity measured on similar (6.8 T) deposited a substrate. Reducing annealing time results in while increasing leads to drop magnetization Such ultra-high are interest charac...

In this work, microwave frequency measurement (MFM) is reviewed since the early stages using fully analog implementations, including its evolution to analog/digital implementations with high resolutions up 1 MHz. The review includes digital and photonics techniques, a discussion on achieved devices overall field of measuring identifying unknown signals. Several planar such as interferometers, f...

An income distribution describes how an entity’s total wealth is distributed amongst its population. A problem of interest to regional economics researchers understand the spatial homogeneity distributions among different regions. In economics, Lorenz curve a well-known functional representation distribution. this article, we propose mixture finite mixtures (MFM) model as well Markov random fie...

Nanomagnetic structures of hydrothermal NiZn ferrites sintered at various temperatures was studied in this work through Magnetic Force Microscopy (MFM) using different magnetically characterized tips. The magnetic patterns varied according to the tip employed and were correlated to the magnetic induced field generated by these different coated tips. NiZn ferrites were produced at 200°C by hydro...

Intermetallic Pd-doped (Fe,Ni)$_3$P, that crystalizes in a non-centrosymmetric tetragonal structure with $S_4$ symmetry, has recently been discovered to host magnetic antiskyrmions, antivortex-like topological spin textures. In this material, uniaxial anisotropy and dipolar interactions play significant role, giving rise finely branched domain patterns near the surface of bulk crystals, as reve...

The magnetic susceptibility of liquid-mercury-based alloys containing5,8,15 and Bat .% Na is investigated. Changes in the paramagneric contribution of the conduction electrons are discussed in terms of negative excess molar volume. The anomalous variation of the total magnetic susceptibility with the composition is analysed. The occurrence of Hg, units appears to be corroborated from the compos...
