Modelling and simulation of cloth deformation are of great importance in computer graphics and engineering applications. Although many models have been developed, problems still exist. No model so far can accurately describe both motion and deformation of cloth in a unified equation. And the equations for the in-plane deformation of cloth have yet to be developed. In this paper, a model for bot...

Porous materials are lightweight, flexible and resistant to hairline cracks, so today with the development of technology porous structure produced for use in various industries. This structure widely use in beams, plates and shells. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effect of porosity in axial symmetry in bending and buckling load sheet for analysis. For this purpose, a circular p...

in this paper, a closed form solution for bending and free vibration analyses of simply supported rectangular laminated composite plates is presented. the static and free vibration behavior of symmetric and antisymmetric laminates is investigated using a refined first-order shear deformation theory. the winkler–pasternak two-parameter model is employed to express the interaction between the lam...

BACKGROUND A variety of methods are available for the fixation of femoral shaft fractures after total hip arthroplasty. However, few studies in the literature have quantified the performance of such repair constructs. The aim of this study was to evaluate biomechanically four different constructs for the fixation of periprosthetic femoral shaft fractures following total hip arthroplasty. METH...

Thin plate splines are a well known entity of geometric design. They are defined as the minimizer of a variational problem whose differential operators approximate a simple notion of bending energy. Therefore, thin plate splines approximate surfaces with minimal bending energy and they are widely considered as the standard “fair” surface model. Such surfaces are desired for many modeling and de...

In this second paper, we consider again a set of elastic rods periodically distributed over an elastic plate whose thickness tends here to 0. This work is then devoted to describe the homogenization process for the junction of the rods and a thin plate. We use a technique based on two decompositions of the displacement field in each rod and in the plate. We obtain a priori estimates on each ter...

Traditional truss design and analysis assumes pinned joints at the connections. Other design provisions recommend that the trusses be designed and analyzed as frame structures, with careful consideration of the stress, timber behavior, and joint response. A large body of knowledge has been compiled detailing truss behavior as it relates to member properties and responses. However, the modeling ...

The residual strain profiles were measured through the thickness of friction-stir welded (FSW) plates using neutron diffraction to study the relationship between the angular distortion and the residual strain distribution. Three different weld specimens were prepared from a 6061-T6 aluminum alloy with the purpose of separating the effects of the frictional heat and plastic deformation on the re...

In this research, the buckling and bending behaviour of smart nanocomposite plate reinforced by single- walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) under electro-magneto-mechanical loadings is studied. The extended mixture rule approach is used to determine the elastic properties of nanocomposite plate. Equilibrium equations of smart nanocomposite plate are derived using the Hamilton’s principle based on ...

Abstract This study investigated the effects of scratches and bending on surface stress aluminum alloy plates with varying thicknesses. The purpose this was to provide guidance for testing different “birth death” element method used simulate generation scratches, while field under pre-stretched state obtained through displacement one end board by 2.5%. X-ray residual analyzer (μ-x360 s) experim...
