Uncapped, hollow polymeric microstructures were fabricated on a silicon substrate using electric field induced stretching and detachment. Initially, square or cylinder microposts were generated using a solvent-assisted capillary molding technique, and a featureless electrode mask was positioned on the top of the microstructure with spacers maintaining an air gap (∼20 μm). Upon exposure to an ex...

In recent years, there has been renewed interest in problems of diffraction and radiation of ocean waves around structures, in relation to “green” power generation by Oscillating Water Column (OWC) devices. In this paper we present a first-order analytical solution for the diffraction of ocean waves around a hollow cylindrical shell structure suspended in an ocean of finite depth. By revisiting...

We investigate theoretically the properties of phononic crystal plates with hollow pillars. Such crystals can exhibit confined whispering gallery modes around the hollow parts of the pillars whose localization can be increased by separating the pillar from the plate by a full cylinder. We discuss the behaviors of these modes and their potential applications in guiding and filtering. Filling the...

In this study, the thermoelastic behavior of a thick-walled homogeneous cylinder based on Lord-Shulman theory is investigated. It assumed that inner and outer surfaces are traction-free, surface insulated while subjected to time-dependent internal temperature load. The governing equations in coupled form solved with pseudospectral Chebyshev method. numerical approach validated benchmark results...

A meshless approximation and local integral equation (LIE) formulation are proposed for elastodynamic analysis of a hollow cylinder made of quasicrystal materials with decagonal quasicrystal properties. The cylinder is assumed to be under shock loading. Therefore, the general transient elastodynamic problem is considered for coupled phonon and phason displacements and stresses. The equations of...

The goal of this study is to investigate the effect of the initial stress and transverse isotropy on the dispersion relation of flexural wave in a conducting circular cylinder subject to the initial state of stress of the form of hydrostatic tension or compression. The free stress conditions on the inner and outer surfaces of the hollow circular cylinder were used to form the dispersion relatio...

We use the Airy stress function to derive exact solutions for plane strain deformations of a functionally graded (FG) hollow cylinder with the inner and the outer surfaces subjected to different boundary conditions, and the cylinder composed of an isotropic and incompressible linear elastic material. For the shear modulus given by either a power law or an exponential function of the radius r, w...

The present study aims to investigate the analysis of stress, strain, displacement, and electrical potential of a thick hollow cylinder made of FGPM under mechanical and thermal loads. Distribution of mechanical property of material is considered along the shell stick through the power distribution function. Thermal loads have been taken to signify the difference of temperature between outer an...
