In this paper, stability of slopes with a shallow foundation located on top including the shape of the failure mechanism is investigated in static and seismic states. This is a three dimensional problem which is analyzed two dimensionally because 3D analyses are complex and appropriate softwares are not available. The conventional method of bearing capacity evaluation of foundations on top of ...

some manufacturers claim to have produced new irreversible hydro-colloids that are able to maintain their dimensional stability during storage. the present study evaluated the effect of storage time on dimensional stability of three alginates: hydrogum 5, tropicalgin and alginoplast.in this experimental in-vitro trial, a total of 90 alginate impressions were made from a dentoform model using hy...

objectives: this study aimed to assess the effect of storage time and temperature on dimensional stability of impressions made with cavex outline zinc oxide impression paste. materials and methods: a round stainless steel mold with five grooves (three horizontal and two vertical) was used in this in-vitro experimental study. cavex outline impression paste was prepared according to the manufactu...

the transport of dissolved contaminants in groundwater is usually described by the advectiondispersion equation with reaction. several numerical methods for solving the one-dimensional are availableincluding finite difference methods, finite volume methods, and finite element methods. stringent conditions,such as small peclet (pe) and courant (cr) numbers, must be satisfied to ensure the accura...

Having knowledge of stability of an underground space depends on stresses and strains around it. Creating underground tunnels leads to significant changes in the rock mass stress. Therefore, to achieve the necessary stability, stresses and deformations around the tunnel must be examined carefully. Usually, stress-strain behavior analysis is conducted in two-dimensional mode. This paper was cond...

this paper concerns the problem of robust stabilization of uncertain fractional-order non-autonomous systems. in this regard, a single input active control approach is proposed for control and stabilization of three-dimensional uncertain fractional-order systems. the robust controller is designed on the basis of fractional lyapunov stability theory. furthermore, the effects of model uncertainti...

Linear stability analysis of the three dimensional plane wake flow is performed using a mapped finite di?erence scheme in a domain which is doubly infinite in the cross–stream direction of wake flow. The physical domain in cross–stream direction is mapped to the computational domain using a cotangent mapping of the form y = ?cot(??). The Squire transformation [2], proposed by Squire, is also us...

in this study , the physical and mechanical properties of polypropylene composites reinforced with bagasse alkaline-sulfite-anthraquinone, soda-anthraqouinone, monoethanolamine-anthraquinone chemical pulps and mechanical pulp (cmp) known as pulp-plastic compostes (ppc) were investigated and the results were compared among ppcs and with polypropylene composites reinforced with bagasse flour know...
