On the basis of the continuity equation and the Bernoulli equation in the steady form, a differential equation is developed to evaluate the successive water levels within compartments of an upright perforated wave absorber. Then the initial and boundary conditions are introduced and the differential equation is solved as an initial value problem. Finally the reflection coefficient from the wave...

Abstract   In vibratory systems, linear and nonlinear vibration absorbers can be used to suppress the primary and super-harmonic resonance responses. In this paper, the behavior of a nonlinear system with a nonlinear absorber, under the primary and super-harmonic resonances is investigated. The stiffnesses of the main system and the absorber are cubically nonlinear and the dampers are linear. M...

In the present work the efficiency of a solar parabolic trough has been investigated experimentality. parabolic trough solar collector constitute a proven source of thermal energy for industrial process heat and power genaration. The impact of  using the partially porous media in the absorber on the efficiency of PTC (parabolic trough collector) has been investigated. The porosity of copper foa...

Unglazed transpired collectors or UTC (also known as perforated collectors) are a relatively new development in solar collector technology, introduced in the early nineties for ventilation air heating. These collectors are used in several large buildings in Canada, USA and Europe, effecting considerable savings in energy and heating costs. Transpired collectors are a potential replacement for g...

Whenever a tuned-mass damper is attached to a primary system, motion of the absorber body in more than one degree of freedom (DOF) relative to the primary system can be used to attenuate vibration of the primary system. In this paper, we propose that more than one mode of vibration of an absorber body relative to a primary system be tuned to suppress single-mode vibration of a primary system. W...

We present an XMM-Newton observation of NGC 7469, including studies of the X-ray and UV variability, 0.2−10 keV spectral continuum, Fe Kα emission line and the first-ever high-resolution X-ray spectrum of the soft X-ray warm absorber. We compare the properties of this X-ray warm absorber with the UV warm absorber as seen in a FUSE observation one year previously. The 0.2−10 keV spectral continu...

this paper presents a reduce roll vibration of the full vehicle model with passive suspension systems using vibration absorber to change the dynamic system matrix stat’s eigenvalue. since using the controller system has been splurged and required to energy consuming, in this research the vehicle body roll vibration has been reduced and supplied vehicle stability using a vibration absorber for t...

We have investigated the validity of our simulator. The validation item that we have already performed are summarized as follows. 1. Whether the energy loss distribution follows the Landau’s distribution. • thin absorber of Silicon 2. Whether the energy loss along per unit length follows the formula of Bethe-Bloch for protons. • thick absorber of Silicon • thick absorber of Lead 2 Landau’s dist...
