Cylindrical structures are commonly used in offshore engineering, for example, a tensionleg platform TLP . Prediction of hydrodynamic loadings on those cylindrical structures is one of important issues in design of those marine structures. This study aims to provide a numerical model to simulate fluid-structure interaction around the cylindrical structures and to estimate those loadings using t...

To achieve dual frequency operation for wireless body area network (WBAN) applications, a hybrid dual-band dielectric resonator antenna with serpentine slot fed by a microstrip line is proposed. The proposed antenna structure consists of cylindrical dielectric resonator and serpentine slot resonator. The serpentine slot is etched on the ground plane of the dielectric resonator antenna (DRA). By...

The neutron charge form factor G En (q) is determined from an analysis of the deuteron quadrupole form factor F C2 (q) data. Recent calculations, based on a variety of different model interactions and currents, indicate that the contributions associated with the uncertain two-body operators of shorter range are relatively small for F C2 (q), even at large momentum transfer q. Hence, G En (q) ca...

dand f -shells support a large number of local degrees of freedom: dipoles, quadrupoles, octupoles, hexadecapoles, etc. Usually, the ordering of any multipole component leaves the system sufficiently symmetrical to allow a second symmetry breaking transition. To classify the possibilities, one has to construct the symmetry group of the first ordered phase, and then re-classify the order paramet...

We present ab initio calculations of both the dipole and quadrupole polarizabilities within the framework of the relativistic coupled-cluster theory. We directly solve the first order perturbed equation arising from a general one-electron perturbation, thereby avoiding an explicit summation over intermediate states. This method can be applied to a wide range of problems including the high preci...

We present the analysis on the quadrupole phases of the Internal Linear Combination map, ILC(I) and (III) derived by the WMAP team (1 and 3-year data release). This approach allows us to see the global trend of non-Gaussianity of the quadrupoles for the ILC(III) map through phase correlations with the foregrounds. Significant phase correlations is found in between the ILC(III) quadrupole and th...

A black hole solution of Einstein's field equations with cylindrical symmetry is found. Using the Hamiltonian formulation one is able to define mass and angular momentum for the cylindrical black hole through the corresponding and equivalent three dimensional theory. The causal structure is analyzed.

in this study, aerodynamic characteristics of a circular cylinder in an axial flow have been investigated numerically and experimentally. the model has been considered as a cylinder with truncated nose and fineness ratio of 3 (length to diameter ratio of 3). the investigation involves a series of wind tunnel measurements, flow visualization, and numerical simulation. we used different mach numb...
