Abstract: The behavior of a cylinder wake in a weak uniformly sheared external stream is studied. It is found that the departure of the wake from the linear velocity distribution of the external flow ...

Abstract: Stress variations induced by wave loading can lead to fatigue crack growth in structural components of offshore structures. This paper is concerned with the influence of the form of the ...

Abstract: This paper deals with nonlinear static and dynamic analysis of hyperbolic paraboloid shells on Pasternak foundations. The governing differential equation of a hypar shell on a Pasternak foundation is reduced to that of a ...

Abstract: A three-dimensional numerical model is developed to simulate the mold filling behavior in the plastic encapsulation of microchips. The conventional Hele–Shaw approximation is inadequate to analyze ...
