In this study, the small scale effect on the linear free-field vibration of a nano-circular plate has been investigated using nonlocal elasticity theory. The formulation is based on the classical theory and the linear strain in cylindrical coordinates. To take into account the small scale and the linear geometric effects, the governing differential equation based on the nonlocal elasticity theo...

We consider a new kind of machines with a circular tape and moving in one direction only, so-called Circular Post machines. Using 2-tag systems we construct some small universal machines of this kind.

This paper presents an element of a 2×2-element array antenna for Inmarsat BGAN/GPS applications. The element is an axial mode printed quadrifilar helical antenna that has been integrated with a compact feed network to provide sequential phase rotation for circular polarization (CP) radiation. The novel integrated lumped-element feed network is designed to provide a balanced RF power to the fou...

background: stereotactic radiosurgery is an important clinical tool for the treatment of small lesions in the brain, including benign conditions, malignant and localized metastatic tumors. a dosimetry study was performed for elekta ‘synergy s ’ as a dedicated stereotactic radiosurgery unit, capable of generating circular radiation fields with diameters of 1-5 cm at isocentre using the beam/egs4...

This paper presents the results of a series of small-scale model tests and numerical analyses conducted on circular and ring model footings located near geogrid reinforced sand slopes. Layers of geogrid were used as reinforcement. For numerical analyses Finite Element Method (FEM) was used. The effects of reinforcement depth, size, number of layers, and the horizontal distance between reinforce...

Herein paper compares the analytical model with the FEM based numerical model of the axisymmetric bending of circular sandwich plates. Also, the paper describes equations of the circular symmetrical sandwich plates bending with isotropic face sheets and the nonlinear elastic core material. The method of constructing an analytical solution of nonlinear differential equations has been described. ...

Introduction: Penumbra is an important property of the radiation beam to obtain a suitable margin surrounding the target volume. Therefore, the precise penumbra width determination in stereotactic radiotherapy is necessary for treatment planning. This study aimed to compare the obtained results of penumbra width by in-house and standard circul...

background: small photon fields are increasingly used in modern radiotherapy especially in intensity modulated radiation therapy (imrt) and stereotactic radiosurgery (srs) treatments. accurate beam profile and central axis depth doses measurements of such beams are complicated due to the electron disequilibrium. hence the ebt2 (external beam therapy) gafchromic film was used for dosimetry of sm...

Geophysical potential field data are usually interpolated onto a regular grid before data enhancement and interpretation. Unfortunately the inherent smoothing in the gridding process can be sufficient to distort or even hide small-amplitude anomalies that are nevertheless of economic importance. Circular features may correspond to anomalies from Kimberlite pipes or meteorite impact craters, and...
