Most impact tests are carried out on specimens with specific stacking sequence and dimensions to meet standard and experimental limitations. The damaged areas and the resulted reduction in the strength values of specimens may not agree very well with those of real application. In this paper an attempt is made to study the variation in the size of damaged areas due to varying the dimension of te...

Abstract In this paper, I discuss a possibility for extending the nanosyntactic approach to case assignment and realization in order to model case stacking. Building on the work by Caha (2009), I show that nanosyntax can derive instances of overt case stacking as well as abstract case stacking. emain idea is that a case checking head can attract more than one K(ase)P. is leads to congurations ...

The common-reflection surface (CRS) method is a powerful alternative to the traditional commonmidpoint (CMP) stacking, as it enables stacking using more traces than CMP. The CRS method is based on a traveltime that depends on three parameters in the 2D case, and in eight parameters in the 3D case. Traditionally, to keep computational costs low, these parameters are estimated based on a sequence...

Many authors have examined lot sizing, scheduling and sequence of multi-product flow shops, but most of them have assumed that set up times are independent of sequence. Whereas dependence of set up times to sequence is more common in practice. Hence, in this paper, we examine the discussed problem with hypothesis of dependence of set up times to sequence and cyclic schedule policy in basic peri...

Abstract We consider a minimal model of random pan stacking. A single consists V-shaped object characterized by its internal angle α. The stack is constructed piling up N pans with different angles in given, order. set generated sampling from various kinds distributions the angles: discrete or continuous, uniform optimized. For large mean height depends principally on average distance between ba...
