In this study, nonlinear analysis for thick cylindrical pressure vessels with arbitrary variable thickness made of hyperelastic functionally graded material properties in nearly incompressible state and clamped boundary conditions under non-uniform pressure loading is presented. Thickness and pressure of the shell are considered in axial direction by arbitrary nonlinear profiles. The FG materia...

Even if numerous studies were dedicated to propose soil-structure interaction analysis methods, most of these methods introduce several assumptions to circumvent the difficulties encountered in modeling and reduce computational efforts. The complex spatial configuration of the soil-foundation interface or the distribution of the soil medium are often simplified using flat-layered soil profiles ...

in the present study, the nonlinear model of non-newtonian blood flow in cosine-shape stenosed elastic artery is numerically examined. the model is carried out for axisymmetric, two-dimensional and fully developed blood flow. the vessel wall is assumed to be have time-dependent radius that is important factor for study of blood flow. the cosine-shape stenosis convert to rigid artery by using a ...

The multiplicity of the equilibrium profiles is analyzed for axial dispersion nonisothermal tubular reactors described by Arrhenius type nonlinear models. It is reported that there is at least one steady state among the physically feasible states for such models. Moreover physically meaninful conditions which ensure the multiplicity of equilibrium profiles are given.

We provide in this paper a pair of properties that are both necessary and sufficient to characterize the domain of single-peaked preference profiles. This characterization allows for a definition of single-peaked preference profiles without using an ad-hoc unlerlying order of the alternatives and also sheds light on the structure of single-peaked profiles. Considering the larger domain of value...

We consider degenerate viscous shock profiles arising in systems of two regularized conservation laws, where degeneracy here describes viscous shock profiles for which the asymptotic endstates are sonic to the associated hyperbolic system (the shock speed is equal to one of the characteristic speeds). Proceeding with pointwise estimates on the Green’s function for the linear system of equations...

We consider changepoint detection in a process in which the observed points are profiles: large sets of functionally related points (x, y). Few changepoint detection methods have been proposed that don’t rely in some capacity on the assumption that the observational errors are normally distributed. In this paper, a nonparametric distribution-free wavelet method is proposed for monitoring for ch...
