using  principle  of  minimum  total  potential  energy  approach  in conjunction  with  rayleigh-ritz  method,  the  electro-thermo-mechanical  axial  buckling  behavior  of  piezoelectric  polymeric cylindrical  shell  reinforced  with  double-walled  boron-nitride nanotube  (dwbnnt)  is  investigated. coupling  between  electrical and mechanical  fields  are  considered  according  to  a  re...

This paper presents an analytical solution for response of a piezoelectric hollow cylinder under two-dimensional electro thermo mechanical fields. The solution is based on a direct method and the Navier equations were solved using the complex Fourier series. The advantage of this method is its generality and from mathematical point of view, any type of the thermo mechanical and electrical bound...

resistance spot welding is an important manufacturing process in the automotive industry for assembling bodies. the quality and strength of the welds and, by extension, the body is mainly defined by the quality of the weld nuggets. the most effective parameters in this process are sheet material, geometry of electrodes, electrode force, current intensity, welding time and sheet thickness. the p...

electro-thermo-elastic stress analysis of piezoelectric polymeric thick-walled cylinder reinforced by boronnitride nanotubes (bnnts) subjected to electro-thermo-mechanical fields is presented in this article. the electro-thermo-elastic properties of piezoelectric fiber reinforced composite (pefrc) was studied by a modified xy micromechanical model capable of exhibiting full coupling relation be...

In this research, analysis of nonlocal magneto-electro-thermo-elastic of a functionally graded nanobeamdue to magneto-electro-elastic loads has been done. In order to formulate the problem the Timoshenko theory of beams is utilized. The principle of virtual work, Hamilton’s principle as well as nonlocal magneto-electro-thermo-elastic relations has been recruited to derive the governing eq...

Introduction The wave propagation in magneto-electro-elastic materials has gained considerable importance since last decade. The electro-magneto-elastic materials exhibit a desirable coupling effect between electric and magnetic fields, which are useful in smart structure applications. These materials have the capacity to convert one form of energy namely, magnetic, electric and mechanical ener...

We present a combination of transient electro-thermal simulations of three-dimensional interconnect structures and the calculation of their coupled intrinsic thermo-mechanical stress distributions. For the numerical solution of the electro-thermal as well as the thermo-mechanical stress problem, we apply the finite element method. A practical example is presented where the temperature and the p...
