In this study, a realistic model for dynamic instability of embedded single-walled nanotubes (SWCNTs) conveying pulsating fluid is presented considering the viscoelastic property of the nanotubes using Kelvin–Voigt model. SWCNTs are placed in longitudinal magnetic fields and modeled by sinusoidal shear deformation beam theory (SSDBT) as well as modified couple stress theory. The effect of slip ...

For concrete, the appearance of temperature load due to hydration heat cementitious materials is inevitable and important structural safety dam. This paper investigates effect different surface insulation measures on thermal stress dam concrete by means finite element simulation calculation. The calculation results show that for lowering concrete. When equivalent coefficient transfer was less t...

This study provides, to the best of our knowledge, first detailed analysis how surface oil modifies air–sea interactions in a two-way coupled model, i.e., coupled–ocean–atmosphere–wave–sediment–transport (COAWST) modified account for oil-related changes fluxes. investigates effects on roughness, wind, and near-surface temperature differences, boundary-layer stability those conditions ultimately...

generally, fatigue failure in an element happens at the notch on a surface where the stress level rises because of the stress concentration effect. the present paper investigates the effect of a notch on the fatigue life of the hsla100 (­high strength low alloy) steel which is widely applicable in the marine industry. tensile test was conducted on specimens and mechanical properties were obtain...

Residual stresses and strains in as-cast and annealed aluminum engine blocks were mapped in the main web area above the bearing split using diffraction. Automated coordinate-mapping of the surface and bulk strains was accomplished with X-ray and neutron diffraction, respectively. LabVIEW-based software was developed for improved efficiency, flexibility and quality of data analysis. In the hoop ...

Based on the nonlocal Timoshenko beam theory, the dynamic stability of functionally gradded (FG) nanoeams under axial load is studied in thermal environment, with considering surface effect. It is used power law distribution for FGM and the surface stress effects are considered based on Gurtin-Murdoch continuum theory. Using Von Karman geometric nonlinearity, governing equations are derived bas...

In contact with an environment, a solid may gain or lose mass due to, for example, deposition or etching. As the reaction proceeds, the surface of the solid moves, either extending or receding. If the solid is under stress, the elastic energy adds to the driving force of the reaction, and may cause the surface to roughen. This phenomenon has recently led to a novel experimental technique to det...

in order to decrease water consumption in agricultural sector, deficit irrigation has been suggested. for preventing a heavy loss in crop yield, management of water stress is essential. common methods for measuring plant water stress such as stomatal conductance are time-consuming and require specialized labor and a large number of measurement. temperature of leaf or canopy surface can be an in...
