This paper is concerned with the effect of pure shear on the reflection from a plane boundary of infinitesimal plane waves propagating in a half-space of incompressible isotropic elastic material. For a special class of constitutive laws it is shown that an incident plane harmonic wave propagating in the considered plane gives rise to a surface wave in addition to a reflected wave (with angle o...

In this study, torsional wave propagation is investigated in a rod that are made of one and two dimensional functionally graded material. Firstly, the governing equations of the wave propagation in the functionally graded cylinder derived in polar coordinate. Secondly, finite difference method is used to discretize the equations. The Von Neumann stability approach is used to obtain the time ste...

In this paper, two-dimensional and axisymmetric, time dependent transonic and supersonic flows over a projectile overtaking a moving shock wave are considered. The flow is simulated numerically by solving full time averaged Navier-Stokes equations. The equations are linearized by Newton approach. The roe’s flux splitting method, second order central difference scheme for the diffusion terms, an...

Using unpublished archival material, this article analyses the reception of Virginia Woolf in Milanese feminist context late 1970s, attempting to understand role Woolf’s work played theoretical development feminism difference Italy. The study focuses on two key texts: Italian publication Three Guineas by press La Tartaruga; and Catalogo giallo, second Milan-based Libreria delle donne, which a v...

How can we build a path from the binary of gender to unity common humanity? What kind difference “different voice” feminism make as human voice? In this article, Naoko Saito argues that way talk about needs be radically transformed. To envision route such transformation, she explores an alternative possibility in American transcendentalism Margaret Fuller and Ralph Waldo Emerson. First, critica...

The question of “why there have been no great women artists,” initiated by Linda Nochlin in 1971, elicits different responses from art domains China. In addition, the notions feminism or feminist criticism, translated English and practiced Chinese artists, create distinct connotations reflective gender conditions. Zhu Xiao, their Feminisms with Characteristics, claim that “Chinese feminisms mus...

background during the four steps of the valsalva maneuver (vm), opposite changes can be observed in some physiologic parameters. manifestations of the vm in the electrocardiogram (ecg) have been studied in detail, but there have been few reports comparing vm-related biochemical and hemodynamic changes with a focus on the strain phase of the vm. objectives we studied strain-related ecg changes d...
