Abstract: A new combined-force method is suggested to approximate the second-order difference frequency forces from diffraction theory (Φ2 theory) with less computational effort. The new method is formulated ...

Abstract: Design of engineering components is concerned with their strength and durability characteristics. While design for strength is influenced by the bulk material characteristics, the design for ...

Abstract: The rigid body motion is studied for a combination of finitely and infinitesimally separated positions in planar kinematics. A general new method is developed for determining the locations of ...
