In this paper a new element for analysis of thin-walled structures is presented, and the effects of secondary shear stresses on longitudinal displacements are examined. Since the Interpolation Functions are based on non-uniform torsional differential equations, the analysis of stiffness matrix is facilitated. Therefore, its ability to produce accurate results with the least number of elements i...

Semiconducting single-wall carbon nanotubes are very promising materials in printed electronics due to their excellent mechanical and electrical property, outstanding printability, and great potential for flexible electronics. Nonetheless, developing scalable and low-cost approaches for manufacturing fully printed high-performance single-wall carbon nanotube thin-film transistors remains a majo...

One of the biggest challenges in Aviation industries is milling part features from prismatic blocks to part features with wall and floor thicknesses very similar to sheet metal assemblies. Much research has gone and is still going into machining processes of thin walled components and near net machining. This paper presents an overview in understanding the importance, criticalities and challeng...

Additive manufacturing provides a unique possibility to manufacture parts with advanced design and thin-walled structures. To explore thin-wall capacity, laser powder bed fusion was employed fabricate 316 ​L samples different section thicknesses. A detailed microstructure characterization then carried out, tensile properties were assessed. It found that reducing the part thickness did not affec...

In magnetically coupled, planar ferromagnet-superconductor (F/S) hybrid structures, magnetic domain walls can be used to spatially confine the superconductivity. In contrast to a superconductor in a uniform applied magnetic field, the nucleation of the superconducting order parameter in F/S structures is governed by the inhomogeneous magnetic field distribution. The interplay between the superc...

Among the different lateral force resisting systems, shear walls are of appropriate stiffness and hence are extensively employed in the design of high-rise structures. The architectural concerns regarding the safety of these structures have further widened the application of coupled shear walls. The present study investigated the optimal dimensional design of coupled shear walls based on the im...
