The propagation of torsional waves in a prestressed fiber-reinforced half-space under the effect of magnetic field and gravity has been discussed. The problem has been solved analytically using Whittaker function to obtain the exact solution frequency equations. Numerical results for stress, gravity and magnetic field are given and illustrated graphically. Comparisons are made with the results ...

In this paper, we construct a new model based on the coupling of thermoelasticity, plasma, and microelongation effect under volumetric absorption laser pulse. Three different thermoelasticity theories are applied to in 2D thermoelastic semiconducting medium whose properties temperature-dependent. The surface is exposed radiation having spatial temporal Gaussian distributions; addition, consider...

this paper is concerned with investigation of vertical impedance function of a surface rigid circular foundation resting on a semi-infinite transversely isotropic alluvium. to this end, the equations of motion in cylindrical coordinate system, which because of axissymmetry are two coupled equations, are converted into one partial differential equation using a method of potential function. the g...

wall-jet flow is an important flow field in hydraulic engineering, and its applications include flow from the bottom outlet of dams and sluice gates. in this paper, the plane turbulent wall jet in shallow tailwater is simulated by solving the reynolds averaged navier-stokes equations using the standard  turbulence closure model. this study aims to explore the ability of a time splitting method ...

free surface sloshing of liquid in a rectangular tank induced by lateral excitation has been studied numericallyand experimentally in this paper. the numerical simulation is carried out based on the volume of fluid (vof) method that provides free surface extraction in such problem. a tank with transparent walls is used to free surface tracking in experimental study while the movement amplitude ...

In this paper we address the issue of a creeping wave by investigating a twodimensional configuration which involves a surface-braking crack in a traction free planar backwall. We assume that this back-wall is irradiated by a shear Gaussian beam which is incident at a critical angle and hits the wall away from the crack edge. We show that the generated wave known in the engineering literature a...

Abstract. The propagation behaviour of Love wave in an initially stressed functionally graded magnetic-electric-elastic half-space carrying a homogeneous layer is investigated. The material parameters in the substrate are assumed to vary exponentially along the thickness direction only. The velocity equations of Love wave are derived on the electrically or magnetically open circuit and short ci...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the traction characteristics of four different stud configurations on 2-Star, third generation artificial soccer turf during cutting movements. Traction, among others, characterizes player-surface interaction and is a key for top level performance in soccer. The concept of this study involves a combination of performance, subjective-sensory and biomecha...
