This paper discusses 2D models of beams for simulating the fracture of brittle materials. A simulation of an experiment on a concrete beam subjected to bending, in which two overlapping cracks occur, is used to study the effect of individual beam characteristics and different arrangements of the beams in the overall network mesh. It was found that any regular orientation of the beams influences the resulting crack patterns. Methods to implement a wide range of poisson's ratios are also developed, the use of the mesh to study arbitrary micro-structures is outlined. The crack pattern that are obtained with mesh are in good agreement with the experimental results. Also, numerical simulations of the tests were performed by means of a model, and non-integer dimensions were measured on the predicted mesh damage patterns.

We report the computer aided design results for a GaSb/InAs broken-gap gate all around nanowire tunneling FET (TFET). In designing, the semi-empirical tight-binding (TB) method using $sp3d5s^*$ is used as band structure model to produce the bulk properties. The calculated band structure is cooperated with open boundary conditions (OBCs) and a three-dimensional $Schr{\ddot{o}}dinger$-Poisson solver to execute quantum transport simulators. We find an device configuration for the operation voltage of 0.3 V which exhibit desired low sub-threshold swing (< 60 mV/dec) by adopting receded gate configuration while maintaining the high current characteristic ($I_{ON}$ > $100 {\mu}A/{\mu}m$) that broken-gap TFETs normally have.

An analytical 2-dimensional model to explain the small signal and noise properties of an AlGaN/GaN modulation doped field effect transistor has been developed. The model is based on the solution of two-dimensional Poisson's equation. The developed model explains the influence of Noise in ohmic region (Johnson noise or Thermal noise) as well as in saturated region (spontaneous generation of dipole layers in the saturated region). Small signal parameters are obtained and are used to calculate the different noise parameters. All the results have been compared with the experimental data and show an excellent agreement and the validity of our model.

In this paper, an experimental program was undertaken to test the analysis on Component and mechanical characteristics for crushed stone of excavated Rocks from Sandstone, Shale, Mudstone, for use as a new source of aggregate. Physical and mechanical properties, required for aggregate materials, of major constituents of rock wastes including Sandstone, Shale, Mudstone, Felsite, Basalt, Marl were measured in the laboratory Test results showed that the Shale, Felsite, Basalt tested in this study might possibly be used for construction aggregates. In case of Sandstone and Mudstone, some physical properties such as rock strength were generally adoptable but the aggregate characteristics were lower than required.

New titanium alloys with a low elastic modulus have been developed for biomedical applications to avoid the stress shielding effect of the artificial prosthesis. The newly developed alloys contained the transition elements like Zr, Hf, Nb, Ta which were non-cytotoxicity elements and $\beta$ stabilizers. In the present paper the elastic moduli of Ti-xM containing Zr, Hf, Nb, Ta were evaluated by measuring the acoustic velocity (PEG). The effectiveness of the alloying elements for lowering the elastic modulus was investigated. In addition, the dominant factors for the low modulus were discussed. Ta was the most effective in lowering the elastic modulus of the alloys. The effectiveness of Hf was not acceptable for decreasing the elastic modulus. The dominant factor was the lattice parameter for Zr, and the poisson's ratio for Nb, Ta, respectively.

To analyze the gas discharge phenomena in parallel-plane electrodes, the fully coupled finite element method (FEM) considering secondary electron emission effects in discharge column was adopted in this paper. Two coupled equations of the hydrodynamic diffusion-drift equations for three carriers and the Poisson's equation for electric scalar potential should be solved as a system equation. The proposed method including two secondary electron processes of the photoemission and background ionization has been successfully applied to evaluating the breakdown voltage in parallel-plane electrodes and is verified by comparing its numerical results with the experimental ones. From the obtained results, it is inferred that the proposed numerical scheme will be useful for predicting and understanding streamer transient phenomena.

A p-version of the finite element method in conjunction with the modeling dynamic method using the arc-length stretch deformation is considered to determine the bending natural frequencies of a cantilever flexible plate mounted on the periphery of a rotating hub. The plate Fourier p-element is used to set up the linear equations of motion. The transverse displacements are formulated in terms of cubic polynomials functions used generally in FEM plus a variable number of trigonometric shapes functions representing the internals DOF for the plate element. Trigonometric enriched stiffness, mass and centrifugal stiffness matrices are derived using symbolic computation. The convergence properties of the rotating plate Fourier p-element proposed and the results are in good agreement with the work of other investigators. From the results of the computation, the influences of rotating speed, aspect ratio, Poisson's ratio and the hub radius on the natural frequencies are investigated.

The fact that nonlinearity and anisotropy of soil should be considered for the proper estimation of soil deformation has been recongnized for a long time. In this study, a new stiffness model which can reflect both nonlinearity and anisotropy is proposed. Nonlinearity is simulated by Ramberg-Osgood model and anisotropy is modeled with the cross-anisotropic elasticity. Analysis results with the developed model compared with those from analyses using linear isotropic model, linear anisotropic model, and nonlinear isotropic model. In the triaxial compression like condition, the effects of nonlinearity on the vertical strain are significant, but soil anisotropy does not affect the vertical strain. In 1-dimensional deformation condition, however, both nonlinearity and anisotropy of soil influence the final magnitude of the vertical strain. Also the increase of poisson's ratio magnifies the effect of anisotropy on the vertical strain in this condition.
