The molding pressure is also one of the important parameters in the preparation of HTSC materials by the solid state reaction method. In the present study, changes in structural, electrical and microstructural proper-ties with the molding pressure in YiB $a_{2}$C $u_{3}$ $O_{70{\delta}}$ superconductors have been performed. The investigated molding pressures were 0.5*10$^{3}$ N/c $m^{2}$, 1*10$^{3}$ N/c $m^{2}$, 2*10$^{3}$ n/c $m^{2}$ and 4*10$^{3}$ N/c $m^{2}$. As the molding pressure increased, the anisotropy of the crystal structure decreased and the grains have been grown preferentially in a c-axis direction. Since the size of the grain becomes larger with the decrease of the porosity, denser textures are formed. The results indicated that the critical current density is improved resulting from the enhanced densification due to higher molding pressure. When the molding pressure was between 1*10$^{3}$ N/c $m^{2}$ and 2*10$^{3}$ N/c $m^{2}$, while it did not affect the oxygen deficiency and Tc, the increase of the molding pressure affects remarkably on grain size and densification of the $Y_{1}$B $a_{2}$C $u_{3}$ $O_{7-{\delta}}$. When the molding pressure is larger than 2*10$^{3}$ N/c $m^{2}$, electrical proper-ties are independent on the molding pressure..

In high temperature aircraft electronics, aluminium based brazing filler is the prime choice today. Aluminium and its alloys have compatible properties like weight minimization, thermal conductivity, heat dissipation, high temperature precipitation hardening etc. suitable for the aerospace industry. However, the selection of brazing filler for high temperature electronics requires high temperature joint strength properties which is crucial for the aerospace. Thus the selection of proper brazing alloy material, the composition and brazing method play an important role in deciding the final reliability of aircraft electronic components. The composition of these aluminium alloys dependent on the addition of the various elements in the aluminium matrix. The complex shapes of aluminium structures like enclosures, heat dissipaters, chassis for electronic circuitry, in avionics are designed from numerous individual components and joined thereafter. In various aircraft applications, the poor strength caused by the casting and shrinkage defects is undesirable. In this report the effect of various additional elements on Al based alloys and brazing fillers have been discussed.

Thixomolding of Mg-alloy is a semi-solid injection molding process utilizing thixotropic phenomenon. Using this process, higher strength, thinner wall section and tighter tolerance without porosity are obtained. It has been applied for production of near-net-shape magnesium component. To design optimal thixomolding process of Mg-alloy part, molding conditions such as slurry temperature, mold temperature and injection time should be determined properly. Selection of these parameters has been dependent upon engineers' experience and intuitiveness. In this paper, to improve mechanical properties of the thixomolded product, optimal selection of process variables such as injection velocity, barrel temperature and die temperature in the process has been studied through microstructural analysis and Taguchi method. Performance of the process is verified through experiments.

Recently, the studies on submerged breakwater are increased due to needs considering the quality of water and the scenic view. In this paper, waves coming to permeable submerged breakwater coming with oblique angle are computed numerically by using wave pressure function. The wave pressure function throughout the analytical region including the fluid and submerged breakwaters is used. An unknown quantity expressed by the wave pressure function is simulated by boundary element method. The maximum reflection coefficient shows the tendency of decrease with the increase of oblique angle and The reflection coefficient shows the tendency of increase with the increase of the values of the linear dissipation coefficient and the added mass coefficient. It is means that the reflection coefficients are strongly dependent on the oblique angle and resistance coefficients.

Mechanical behavior in nano-sized structures differs from those in macro sized structures due to surface effect. As the ratio of surface to volume increases, surface effect is not negligible and causes size-dependent mechanical behavior. In order to identify this size effect, atomistic simulations are required; however, it has many limitations because too much computational resource and time are needed. To overcome the restrictions of the atomistic simulations and graft the well-established continuum theories, the continuum model considering surface effect, which is based on the bridging technique between atomistic and continuum simulations, is introduced. Because it reflects the size effect, it is possible to carry out a variety of analysis which is intractable in the atomistic simulations. As a part of the application examples, the homogenization method is applied to micro/nano thin films with porosity and the homogenized elastic coefficients of the nano scale thickness porous films are computed in this paper.

Dynamic stability of graded nonlocal nano-dimension plates on elastic substrate due to in-plane periodic loads has been researched via a novel 3- unknown plate theory based on exact position of neutral surface. Proposed theory confirms the shear deformation effects and contains lower field components in comparison to first order and refined 4- unknown plate theories. A modified power-law function has been utilized in order to express the porosity-dependent material coefficients. The equations of nanoplate have been represented in the context of Mathieu-Hill equations and Chebyshev-Ritz-Bolotin's approach has been performed to derive the stability boundaries. Detailed impacts of static/dynamic loading parameters, nonlocal constant, foundation parameters, material index and porosities on instability boundaries of graded nanoscale plates are researched.

Fluid flow and heat transfer have been numerically investigated for an oscillating flow in a tube with a regenerator. The regenerator is placed between hot and cold spaces which are heated and cooled at uniform temperature. An oscillating flow is generated by the piston motion at both ends of a tube. The time dependent, two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations and energy equation are solved by using the finite-volume and moving grid method. The regenerator is adopted as Brinkmann-Forchheimer extended Darcy model. Numerical results are obtained for the flow and temperature fields, and described the effects of the oscillating frequency and amplitude ratio by the piston motion as well as the aspect ratio. The numerical results obtained indicate that the heat transfer between the tube wall and oscillating flow is increased as the oscillating frequency, amplitude ratio and the aspect ratio are increased.

A computational analysis of hygro-thermal and mechanical behaviour of concrete column at high temperature is presented. The objective of this study is to develop a finite difference model that simulates coupled heat and transport phenomena in reinforced concrete structures exposed to rapid heating conditions such as fires. The theoretical basis for the integrated finite difference method is presented to describe a powerful numerical technique for solving of fluid flow in porous media. The numerical results predict the phenomena of 'moisture clog' and the explosive spalling of concrete under fire. The investigations show that high-strength concrete(HSC) and normal-strength concrete(NSC) exposed to high temperature have different pore pressure buildup dependent on porosity, permeability and moisture contents. HSC has more possibility than NSC on spalling.

The present study analyzed free vibration of the three-layered micro annular/circular plate which its core and face sheets are made of saturated porous materials and FG-CNTRCs, respectively. The structure is subjected to magneto-electric fields and magneto-electro-mechanical pre loads. Mechanical properties of the porous core and also FG-CNTRC face sheets are varied through the thickness direction. Using dynamic Hamilton's principle, the motion equations based on MCS and FSD theories are derived and solved via GDQ as an efficient numerical method. Effect of different parameters such as pores distributions, porosity coefficient, pores compressibility, CNTs distribution, elastic foundation, multi-physical pre loads, small scale parameter and aspect ratio of the plate are investigated. The findings of this study can be useful for designing smart structures such as sensor and actuator.

In this paper, free vibration of Cooper-Naghdi micro sandwich cylindrical shell with saturated porous core and reinforced carbon nanotube (CNT) piezoelectric composite face sheets is investigated by using first order shear deformation theory (FSDT) and modified couple stress theory (MCST). The sandwich shell is subjected to magneto-thermo-mechanical loadings with temperature dependent material properties. Energy method and Hamilton's principle are used for deriving of the motion equations. The equations are solved by Navier's method. The results are compared with the obtained results by the other literatures. The effects of various parameters such as saturated porous distribution, geometry parameters, volume fraction and temperature change on the natural frequency of the micro-sandwich cylindrical shell are addressed. The obtained results reveal that the natural frequency of the micro sandwich cylindrical shell increases with increasing of the radius to thickness ratio, Skempton coefficient, the porosity of the core, and decreasing of the length to radius ratio and temperature change.
