in the current study, the effects of interactions of the moving loads and the attached mass-spring-damper systems of the composite plates on the resulting dynamic responses are investigated comprehensively, for the first time, using the classical plate theory. the solution of the coupled governing system of equations is accomplished through tracing the spatial variations using a navier-type sol...

Running-in, mild and severe wear are three typical wear regimes of a wear system. The running-in wear is of particular interest in MMC/ steel systems. In this paper, the running-in wear was investigated in the system of a steel disk and Sic-particle-reinforced 2014 Al composite pins. It was found that the wear mechanisms of the system were dominated by abrasion and that the fracture of the rein...

We report on a temperature-dependent band gap property of epitaxial MoSe2 ultrathin films. We prepare uniform MoSe2 films epitaxially grown on graphenized SiC substrates with controlled thicknesses by molecular beam epitaxy. Spectroscopic ellipsometry measurements upon heating sample in ultra-high vacuum showed temperature-dependent optical spectra between room temperature to 850 °C. We observe...

This article examines the dynamics of interand intra-firm networks in technical standard setting initiatives, and how complex social networks align in these initiatives. Specifically, we argue that in standardization, complex economic and social interactions are blended. In standardization activities, firm behavior and the behavior of individuals within firms is best explained through an integr...

nonstop growth of urban population and concentration of industrial and agricultural activities in many parts of the world and iran have given rise to increased demand for water for different uses .furthermore, as one important factor of lack of exchange between human and environment resulting in wide exploitation from agricultural lands, mine extraction, and application of various industrial to...

We describe the economics literature on auction markets, with an emphasis on the connection between theory, empirical practice, and public policy, and a discussion of outstanding issues. We describe some basic concepts, to highlight some strengths and weaknesses of the literature, and so indicate where further research may be warranted. We discuss identi…cation and estimation issues, with an em...
