Elastic-plastic behavior of a beam made of functionally graded material is investigated in this work‎. ‎The beam is subjected to the constant axial and bending loads and the critical values of these loads for yield‎, ‎collapse and elastic-plastic conditions are obtained‎. ‎The variation of elastic modulus and yield strength through the height of the beam is determined with an exponential rule‎....

background cone beam computed tomography (ct) has recently become effective for oral and maxillofacial imaging. objectives the aim of this study was to assess the knowledge of dentists regarding cone beam computed tomography. materials and methods in this descriptive cross sectional study, a questionnaire regarding cone-beam computed tomography (cbct) was distributed amongst 100 dentists (gener...

A triangular model base on an investigation which has done by Sinha et al. has been developed for evaluating embedded crack localization in beam-column structures. In the assessment of this member’s behavior, the effects of displacement slope are necessary. In order to propose a crack localization method for embedded crack, an efficient static data based indicator is proposed for this crack in ...

in this paper, a crack localization method for euler-bernoulli beams via an efficient static data based indicator is proposed. the crack in beams is simulated here using a triangular variation in the stiffness. static responses of a beam are obtained by the finite element modeling. in order to reduce the computational cost of damage detection method, the beam deflection is fitted through a poly...

We study the renormalisation group running of the cosmological and the Newton constant, where the renormalisation scale is given by the inverse of the radius of the cosmological event horizon. In this framework, we discuss the future evolution of the universe, where we find stable de Sitter solutions, but also “big crunch”-like and “big rip”-like events, depending on the choice of the parameter...

We study many properties of Cauchy numbers in terms of generating functions and Riordan arrays and find several new identities relating these numbers with Stirling, Bernoulli and harmonic numbers. We also reconsider the Laplace summation formula showing some applications involving the Cauchy numbers.
