In this paper, the closed form analytical expressions for the displacement field due to a cylindrical inclusion in a thermoelastic half-space are obtained. These expressions are derived in the context of steady-state uncoupled thermoelasticity using thermoelastic displacement potential functions. The thermal displacement field is generated due to differences in the coefficients of linear therma...

in the present research, the effects of delamination size and location on vibration characteristics of laminated composite beams are investigated both analytically and numerically. in the analytical method, the delaminated beam is modeled as four interconnected euler–bernoulli beams and the constrained and free mode models are both simulated. the differential stretching and the bending-extensio...

PURPOSE Dose-escalated (DE) radiotherapy in the setting of localized prostate cancer has been shown to improve biochemical disease-free survival (bDFS) in several studies. In the same group of patients, androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) has been shown to confer a survival benefit when combined with radiotherapy doses of up to 70 Gy; however, there is currently little long-term data on patients...

by virtue of a complete set of two displacement potentials, an analytical derivation of the elastostatic green’s functions of an exponentially graded transversely isotropic bi-material full-space was presented. three-dimensional point-load green’s functions for stresses and displacements were given in line-integral representations. the formulation included a complete set of transformed stress-p...

This paper discusses a 1D one-dimensional mathematical model for the thermoelasticity problem in two-layer plate. Basic equations dimensionless form contain both temperature and displacement. General solutions of homogeneous (displacement equations) are assumed to be linear combination Trefftz functions. Particular these then expressed with appropriately constructed sums derivatives general sol...

In this paper, multi-objective uniform-diversity genetic algorithm (MUGA) with a diversity preserving mechanism called the ε-elimination algorithm is used for Pareto optimization of 5-degree of freedom vehicle vibration model considering the five conflicting functions simultaneously. The important conflicting objective functions that have been considered in this work are, namely, vertical accel...

We define the following mappings: the characteristic function of a subset of a set, the inclusion function (injection or embedding), the projections from a Cartesian product onto its arguments and diagonal function (inclusion of a set into its Cartesian square). Some operations on functions are also defined: the products of two functions (the complex function and the more general product-functi...

UNLABELLED WHAT'S KNOWN ON THE SUBJECT? AND WHAT DOES THE STUDY ADD?: High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is an alternative treatment option for localized prostate cancer (PCa), which is applied for over 15 years. There are conflicting recommendations for HIFU among urological societies, which can be explained by the lack of prospective controlled studies, reports on preselected patient po...

Three{dimensional basic and mixed interface problems of the mathematical theory of thermoelastic pseudo{oscillations are considered for piecewise homogeneous anisotropic bodies. Applying the method of boundary potentials and the theory of pseudodiierential equations existence and uniqueness theorems of solutions are proved in the the space of regular functions C k+ and in the Bessel{potential (...
