Abstract: A two-dimensional circulation model of the stratosphere, incorporating the mutual interrelationships between radiation, photochemistry, and seasonal transport processes, was run under steady-state assumptions to study ...

Abstract: In this paper a finite element analysis of steady-state dynamic crack growth under mode I plane strain small scale yielding conditions has been performed in a power law hardening rate dependent ...

Abstract: Fiber pull-out resistance is an important mechanism of energy absorption during the failure of fiber-reinforced composite materials. This paper deals with axial stress distribution in the fiber ...

Abstract: Kirchhoff’s kinetic analogy relates the equilibrium solutions of an elastic rod or strip to the motion of a spinning top. In this analogy, time is replaced by the arc length parameter in the phase portrait to determine the ...

Abstract: The interaction of surface radiation and conduction with natural convection heat transfer from a vertical flat plate assembly, with an embedded heater, has been investigated, both experimentally ...

Abstract: Auto and cross-bispectral analyses of a two-degree-of-freedom system with quadratic nonlinearities having two-to-one internal (autoparametric) resonance are presented. Following the work of Nayfeh ...

Abstract: It has been conjectured that the unpredictability of climatic systems is due to strange attractors (SAs) in the configuration space dynamics. One climatic record, the oxygen isotope ratio data from deep-sea cores that ...

Abstract: The technique of reinforcing soil for foundation improvement is well established. This paper addresses the aspect of settlement of reinforced sand foundations, where the major part of the existing work deals with the aspect ...
