a new three-dimensional unit cell model has been developed for modeling three constituent phases including inclusion, interphase and matrix. the total elastic modulus of nano-composite is evaluated.  numerical results are in good agreement with the previous proposed theoretical modeling. higher matrix and inclusion elastic modulus both can dramatically influence the total elastic modulus.

the purpose of this study is to correct the static shift of magnetotelluric (mt) data in one of the oil fields located in southwest of iran using time domain electromagnetic (tem or tdem) data. acquisition of the mt data has been made in the same area as the tem data was acquired at the frequency range of 0.0005-320 hertz. . a major problem in the mt method that occurs due to distribution of su...

precise localization of the third molars in relation to the inferior alveolar nerve canal is critical from a clinical point of view and strongly affects the surgical treatment outcome. recently, by using three-dimensional modeling software, the relationship of third molar root apices and inferior alveolar nerve canal can be better understood. in this study, the spatial relationship of two surgi...

An image based model reconstruction system is described. Real images of a rigid object acquired under a simple but controlled environment are used to recover the three dimensional geometry and the surface appearance. Proposed system enables robustly modeling of small artifacts with high resolution geometry and surface appearance. Such artifacts may have handles, holes, concavities, cracks, etc....

polymer-clay nano-composite materials, in which nano-meter thick layers of clay dispersed in polymer matrix, have generally higher mechanical properties than normal polymeric materials. a new three-dimensional unit cell model has been developed for modeling three constituent phases including inclusion, interphase and matrix. the total elastic modulus of nano-composite is evaluated.  numerical r...

this paper concerns with the modeling and construction of a fifth order method for two dimensional acoustic wave equation in heterogenous media. the method is based on a standard discretization of the problem on smooth regions and a nonstandard method for nonsmooth regions.the construction of the nonstandard method is based on the special treatment of the interface using suitable jump condition...

the performance of water flooding can be investigated by using either detail numerical modeling or simulation, or simply through the analytical buckley-leverett (bl) model. the buckley-leverett analytical technique can be applied to one-dimensional homogeneous systems. in this paper, the impact of heterogeneity on water flooding performance and fractional flow curve is investigated. first, a ba...

The performance prediction of axial flow compressors at different speeds and under various pressure ratio conditions are still being developed because of costly empirical experiments. One-dimensional modeling is a simple, fast and accurate method for performance prediction in any type of compressor with different geometries. In this approach, inlet flow conditions and compressor geometry are kn...
