A comparison between the vibration of fiber-metal laminate (FML) and composite cylindrical shells has been studied in this manuscript. Love’s first approximation shell theory has been applied to obtain Strain-displacement relations. In addition, beam modal function model has been used to analyze the cylindrical shell with different boundary conditions. In this manuscript, the frequencies of FML...

In this paper we present a structure-preserving dual-energy (SPDE) CT reconstruction method for security, which provides enhanced estimates of material-dependent basis coefficient images. In security applications many different materials may be scanned in various degrees of clutter and metal objects are common. Image noise and metal artifacts are often severe and can lower the accuracy of mater...

Nonlinear hydromagnetic two dimensional steady, laminar, boundary layer flow of a viscous, incompressible, electrically conducting and radiating liquid metal, with nonlinear radiation past a porous plate stretching with power-law velocity is analysed in the presence of a variable magnetic field. The liquid metal is assumed to be a gray, emitting, absorbing but non-scattering medium. Governing n...

We study the one-dimensional Holstein model of spinless fermions interacting with dispersionless phonons by using a recently developed projector-based renormalization method (PRM). At half-filling the system shows a metal-insulator transition to a Peierls distorted state at a critical electron-phonon coupling where both phases are described within the same theoretical framework. The transition ...

The dispersion of the fundamental super mode confined along the boundary between a multilayer metal-insulator (MMI) stack and a dielectric coating is theoretically analyzed and compared to the dispersion of surface waves on a single metal-insulator (MI) boundary. Based on the classical Kretschmann setup, the MMI system is experimentally tested as an anisotropic material to exhibit plasmonic beh...
