Abstract: Analytical and numerical solutions are obtained for temperature distributions in a finite and inhomogeneous perfused medium with internal heat generation. Extensive numerical simultations are carried ...

Abstract: Analytical expressions for transient temperature distributions within a two-zone heating probe and the surrounding infinite, isotropic, homogeneous, perfused medium are obtained. The periphery of ...

Abstract: In the present investigation nonlinear static analysis of thin axisymmetric circular plates, annular plates and shallow spherical shells resting on linear elastic Winkler-Pasternak foundation under ...

Abstract: Theoretical nonlinear transient analysis of orthotropic annular shallow spherical shells interacting with Winkler‐Pasternak elastic subgrades is performed. The governing nonlinear equations of motion are derived and solved ...

Abstract: High-efficiency, lightweight, radiation-resistant solar cells are essential to meet the large power requirements of future space missions. Single-junction cells are limited in efficiency. Higher ...

Abstract: The three-dimensional dynamic response of a double articulated offshore loading structure to noncollinear waves and a steady current is studied for various waves and varying current directions. ...

Abstract: Local dynamic regulation of BOD upsets in an estuary is considered using optimal control theory. It is concluded that such regulation is not a feasible means of maintaining water quality.
