  • In the present investigation, we have studied the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) heat transfer of peristaltic flow in a tube. The analysis is made without imposing any assumption to obtain the streamline and isothermal line directly. Galerkin's finite element method has been used on the governing Navier-Stoke's equation in the form of ${\psi}-{\omega}$. The graphs of the computed longitudinal velocity, temperature and pressure are plotted against different value of the emerging parameter by using the stream function and vorticity. The results are valid beyond the long wavelength and the low Reynolds number limits. We conclude that higher values of the parameters are not independent of the time mean flow rate.

  • Boundary condition is an important factor affecting the vibration characteristics of structures, under different boundary conditions, structures will exhibit different vibration behaviors. On the basis of the previous work, this paper extends to the nonlinear resonance behavior of axially moving graphene platelets reinforced metal foams (GPLRMF) plates with geometric imperfection under different boundary conditions. Based on nonlinear Kirchhoff plate theory, the motion equations are derived. Considering three boundary conditions, including four edges simply supported (SSSS), four edges clamped (CCCC), clamped-clamped-simply-simply (CCSS), the nonlinear ordinary differential equation system is obtained by Galerkin method, and then the equation system is solved to obtain the nonlinear ordinary differential control equation which only including transverse displacement. Subsequently, the resonance response of GPLRMF plates is obtained by perturbation method. Finally, the effects of different boundary conditions, material properties (including the GPLs patterns, foams distribution, porosity coefficient and GPLs weight fraction), geometric imperfection, and axial velocity on the resonance of GPLRMF plates are investigated.

  • An analysis of the Poisson's ratios influence of single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) based on Sander's shell theory is carried out. The effect of Poisson's ratio, boundary conditions and different armchairs SWCNTs is discussed and studied. The Galerkin's method is applied to get the eigen values in matrix form. The obtained results shows that, the decrease in ratios of Poisson, the frequency increases. Poisson's ratio directly measures the deformation in the material. A high Poisson's ratio denotes that the material exhibits large elastic deformation. Due to these deformation frequencies of carbon nanotubes increases. The frequency value increases with the increase of indices of single walled carbon nanotubes. The prescribe boundary conditions used are simply supported and clamped simply supported. The Timoshenko beam model is used to compare the results. The present method should serve as bench mark results for agreeing the results of other models, with slightly different value of the natural frequencies.

  • 천수방정식에 대한 불연속 갤러킨 기법 (DG) 모형은 주로 양해법 기반으로 개발되어 적용되어 왔으나, 바닥마찰항의 처리, 과도한 CFL 조건 등의 불리한 점이 지적되어 왔으며, 이로 인하여 실제 적용에서 FDM, FEM 등 다른 고전적인 수치기법과 비교하여 경쟁력을 갖기 어려웠다. 이에 대한 대안으로써, 최근, 불연속 갤러킨 기법에 대한 음해법 기반의 모형이 연구되고 있으며, 다소 복잡한 알고리즘에도 불구하고 적용이 확대되고 있다. 또한, 널리 알려진 바와 같이, 천수방정식의 실제 하도에 대한 적용에 있어 문제점 중 하나는 나비에-스토크스 방정식으로부터 유도할 때 사용된 정수압 가정으로 인하여, 하도의 계단과 같은 불연속 지형에 적용이 용이하지 않다는 것이다. 본 연구에서는 기존에 개발된 불연속 갤러킨 음해법에 불연속 지형의 해석을 위한 표면경사법(surface gradient method)을 결합하여 이러한 문제에 효과적으로 대응할 수 있는 기법을 제시하였다. 개발된 모형의 검증을 위하여, 제방 등 하도 구조물 위의 장주기 조석흐름, 홍수파, 계단 등을 포함하는 댐 붕괴류 모의에 적용하고 실용적인 기능성을 검증하였다. 향후 구조물이 많은 국내 하천에 적용이 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

  • Nonlinear free vibration analysis of a functionally graded beam resting on the nonlinear viscoelastic foundation is studied with uniform temperature rising. The non-linear strain-displacement relationship is considered in the finite strain theory. The governing nonlinear dynamic equation is derived based on the finite strain theory with using of Hamilton's principle. The Galerkin's decomposition technique is utilized to discretize the governing nonlinear partial differential equation to nonlinear ordinary differential equation and then is solved by using of multiple time scale method. The influences of temperature rising, material distribution parameter, nonlinear viscoelastic foundation parameters on the nonlinear free response and phase trajectory are investigated. In this paper, it is aimed that a contribution to the literature for nonlinear thermal vibration solutions of a functionally graded beam resting on the nonlinear viscoelastic foundation by using of multiple time scale method.

  • Due to the fact that the nonlinear low-velocity impact response of graphene platelets reinforced metal foams (GPLRMF) doubly curved shells have not been investigated in the existing works, this paper aims to solve this issue. Using Reddy's high-order shear deformation theory (HSDT), the nonlinear governing equations of GPLRMF doubly curved shells are obtained by Euler-Lagrange method, discretized by Galerkin principle, and solved by the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method to obtain the impact force and central deflection. The nonlinear Hertz contact law is applied to determine the contact force. Finally, the impacts of graphene platelets (GPLs) distribution pattern, porosity distribution form, porosity coefficient, damping coefficient, impact parameters (radius and initial velocity), GPLs weight fraction, pre-stressing force and different shell types on the low-velocity impact curves are analyzed. It can be found that, among the four shell structures, the impact resistance of spherical shell is the best, while that of cylindrical shell is the worst.

  • This paper deals with the numerical method of calculating the frequency-dependent impedances of grounding electrodes. The proposed electromagnetic field approach is based on the solutions to Maxwell's equations obtained from the method of moment in the frequency domain. In order to evaluate the quality of the proposed simulation method, the frequency-dependent impedances of horizontally-buried ground electrodes were presented. The program for calculating the current distributions and impedances of grounding electrodes was implemented in MATLAB. The grounding impedances of two 10m and 50m long horizontal ground electrodes were measured and simulated in the frequency range from 100Hz to 10MHz for easy analysis and comparison. Also the simulated results were compared with those calculated from a sophisticated computer program CDEGS (HIFREQ module). As a result, the resultant results of frequency-dependent impedances obtained by using the numerical simulation method proposed in this work are in good agreement with experimental data. The validity of the approach techniques was confirmed.

  • For the effective analysis of an engineering problem, meshless methods which require only positioning finite points without the element meshing recently have been proposed and being studied extensively. Meshless methods have difficulty in imposing essential boundary conditions directly, because non-interpolate shape functions originated from an approximation process are used. So some techniques, which are Lagrange multiplier method, modified variational principles and coupling with finite elements and so on, were introduced in order to impose essential boundary conditions. In spite of these methods, imposition of essential boundary conditions have still many problems like as non-positive definiteness, inaccuracy and negation of meshless characteristics. In this paper, we propose a new method which modifies shape function. Through numerical tests, convergence, accuracy and validity of this method are compared with the standard EFGM which uses Lagrange multiplier method or modified variational principles. According to this study, the proposed method shows the comparable accuracy and efficiency.

  • This paper analyzes the continuous Galerkin method for the space-time discretization of wave equation. The method of space-time finite elements enables the simple solution than the usual finite element analysis with discretization in space only. We present a discretization technique in which finite element approximations are used in time and space simultaneously for a relatively large time period called a time slab. The weighted residual process is used to formulate a finite element method for a space-time domain. Instability is caused by a too large time step in successive time steps. A stability problem is described and some investigations for chosen types of rectangular space-time finite elements are carried out. Some numerical examples prove the efficiency of the described method under determined limitations.

  • This paper presents a design for a single-layer feeder waveguide array using $\pi$-junctions with the inductive wall. The feed structure consists of a single waveguide placed on the same layer as radiating waveguide and is characterized by the unit divider, called a $\pi$-junction. This $\pi$-junction with an inductive wall splits part of the power into two branchs waveguide through one coupling window, and can excite densely arrayed waveguide at equal phase and amplitude. The power dividing characteristics of the cascade of $\pi$ -junctions are analyzed by Galerkin's method of moments. The numerical results show reasonable agreement with the experimental results. From the optimum simulation results based on the feeder waveguide using $\pi$-junction, we obtained the scattering matrices of the feeder divided power at 3.95 GHz.
