In the present study, stress analysis and explicit solution of rectangular plate with arbitrarily located circular hole, subjected to linear normal stresses on two opposite edges, has been investigated. Airy function and hoop stresses occurring at the edge of the circular have been computed. In this method 2D dimension elasticity and Airy stress function was used. The present method for explici...

Introduction: In nuclear medicine, the use of a pixelated semiconductor detector such as CZT is an of growing interest for introducing new devices. Especially, the spatial resolution can be improved by using a pixelated parallel-hole collimator with equal holes and pixel sizes based on the pixelated detector. The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of pixelated and ...
