Abstract: Combining the contact model of elasticlayered solid with the concept of asperity contact in elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL), a mixedlubrication model is presented to predict friction coefficient over rough surfaces ...

Abstract: Studies on coupled structural acoustic problems within laminated composite enclosures are presented. Isoparametric quadratic boundary element formulation for the acoustic domain is coupled to the ...

Abstract: This paper estimates their contributions to total gross state domestic product in an attempt to revisit the issue of cities as the engine of growth. Because direct evidence on this aspect is missing, this paper uses the ...

Abstract: Elastic-memory composites (EMCs) is a class of polymeric composites that can be folded into a very compact shape and later deployed to the original shape upon reheating. They have significant potential in developing large ...

Abstract: A study of the seismic behavior of rigid

Abstract: City size plays an important role in the context of growing urbanization in developing countries, such as India. In the backdrop of this fact certain questions are pertinent: whether economic activities are concentrated ...

Abstract: Seasonal drying and wetting highly influence ecosystem diversity in intermittent streams. Hydrological alterations are responsible for the spawning and reproduction of aquatic habitats. The present study attempts to ...

Abstract: Pool boiling around a heated cylinder having a diameter larger than the departure diameter of bubbles has been simulated numerically. Thermally uniform heat flux condition has been maintained at the outer surface of the ...
