In this research, a novel method to decrease micro-residual stresses of fibrous composites by adding carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is proposed in detail. The negative coefficient of thermal expansion and the high young’s modulus of CNTs can be utilized to counterbalance the process induced residual stresses in composites. To this end, first, the effects of adding CNTs to the matrix of fibrous composi...

an attempt was made to investigate the thermal and residual stress distribution in a novel three layer (la 2 zr 2 o 7 / 8ysz/ nicraly) during a real-like heating regime which includes heating, service time and final cooling. for achieving maximum accuracy and consistency in calculation of thermal and mechanical properties of hybrid coating system, all related andrequired properties were introdu...

the effects of physical, thermal and mechanical parameters on curing microthermal residual stresses are studied, based on the energy method, to present a theoretical solution for prediction of residual stress felds. a fnite element analysis is developed to compare the theoretical and numerical results together. there is found to be a good agreement between the results of the two methods. howeve...

For a fixed word hyperbolic group we compare different residual properties related to quasiconvex subgroups.

In this paper we deal with stationary autoregressive processes of nite or in nite but unknown order. Under fairly general assumptions we derive the asymptotic consistency of a usual residual bootstrap procedure for smooth functions of the empirical autocovariance and autocorrelation. Especially the order of the tted autoregressive model is allowed to be data-dependent. Supplementary to the usua...

Let f : M → N be a continuous map between closed irreducible graph manifolds with infinite fundamental group. Perron and Shalen [PS99] showed that if f induces a homology equivalence on all finite covers, then f is in fact homotopic to a homeomorphism. Their proof used the statement that every graph manifold is finitely covered by a 3-manifold whose fundamental group is residually p for every p...
