The initial stage of fretting fatigue crack growth is significantly influenced by tangential force induced by fretting action along the contact surface where a mixed-mode crack growth is involved. Fretting crack behavior of aluminum alloy 2024 was studied, taking into account the problem of contact asperities. Finite element was used for the determination of the stress field near the contact su...

BACKGROUND The success of Bernese periacetabular osteotomy depends significantly on how extent the acetabular fragment can be corrected to its optimal position. This study was undertaken to investigate whether correcting the acetabular fragment into the so-called radiological "normal" range is the best choice for all developmental dysplasia of the hip with different severities of dysplasia from...

‎let $g=(v(g),e(g))$ be a simple connected graph with vertex set $v(g)$ and edge‎ ‎set $e(g)$‎. ‎the (first) edge-hyper wiener index of the graph $g$ is defined as‎: ‎$$ww_{e}(g)=sum_{{f,g}subseteq e(g)}(d_{e}(f,g|g)+d_{e}^{2}(f,g|g))=frac{1}{2}sum_{fin e(g)}(d_{e}(f|g)+d^{2}_{e}(f|g)),$$‎ ‎where $d_{e}(f,g|g)$ denotes the distance between the edges $f=xy$ and $g=uv$ in $e(g)$ and $d_{e}(f|g)=s...

Let $G$ be a connected graph with minimum degree $delta$ and edge-connectivity $lambda$. A graph ismaximally edge-connected if $lambda=delta$, and it is super-edge-connected if every minimum edge-cut istrivial; that is, if every minimum edge-cut consists of edges incident with a vertex of minimum degree.In this paper, we show that a connected graph or a connected triangle-free graph is maximall...

let $g$ be a simple graph of order $n$ and size $m$.the edge covering of $g$ is a set of edges such that every vertex of $g$ is incident to at least one edge of the set. the edge cover polynomial of $g$ is the polynomial$e(g,x)=sum_{i=rho(g)}^{m} e(g,i) x^{i}$,where $e(g,i)$ is the number of edge coverings of $g$ of size $i$, and$rho(g)$ is the edge covering number of $g$. in this paper we stud...

let g=(v,e) be a simple graph. an edge labeling f:e to {0,1} induces a vertex labeling f^+:v to z_2 defined by $f^+(v)equiv sumlimits_{uvin e} f(uv)pmod{2}$ for each $v in v$, where z_2={0,1} is the additive group of order 2. for $iin{0,1}$, let e_f(i)=|f^{-1}(i)| and v_f(i)=|(f^+)^{-1}(i)|. a labeling f is called edge-friendly if $|e_f(1)-e_f(0)|le 1$. i_f(g)=v_f(1)-v_f(0) is called the edge-f...

An edge metric is a metric on the interior of a manifold-with-boundary which is singular at the boundary in a manner described by a given fibration of the boundary. The related edge differential operators arise in many settings and have been the subject of much research; see, for example, [Ma]. Our interest in edge metrics arises from the observation that they are a robust class of metrics natu...
