Abstract—In this paper, we consider the resistances and inductances extraction from finite conducting metals. To remedy the weakness of volume integral equation, we extend the usage of a surface integral equation method from analyzing finite conducting rectangular wire strip to analyzing arbitrarily shaped geometry. Moreover the multilevel Green function method (MLGFIM) with a complexity of O(N...

The dynamic instability regions of composite laminated skew flat plates subjected to uniform in-plane axial end-loading are investigated. The in-plane loading is assumed as a combination of a time-invariant component and a harmonic time-varying component uniformly distributed along two opposite panel ends’ width. In case of some loading frequency-amplitude pair-conditions, the model is subjecte...

This paper deals with local buckling analysis of rectangular functionally graded material plates using finite strip method and based on classical plate theory. The modulus of elasticity of the plate is assumed to vary according to a power-law distribution in terms of the volume fractions of the constituents. The principle of minimum total potential energy is employed to obtain stiffness and sta...

We propose a modification of the Nightingale renormalization group for lattice spin and gauge models by combining it with the cluster decimation approximation. Essential ingredients of our approach are: 1) exact calculation of the partition and correlation function on a finite lattice strip; 2) preservation of the mass gap or the second moment correlation length, computed in the infinite strip ...

Exact solutions are derived for sound radiation from four kinds of infinitely-long strips: namely a rigid strip in a baffle of finite width, a resilient strip in free space, and a resilient or rigid strip in an infinite baffle. In one limit, the strip in a finite baffle becomes a rigid strip in free space and in the other, a line source in a finite baffle. Here "rigid" means that the surface ve...
