Microwave heating and drying processes have been well established in various industrial applications. Feasibilities of successful application of microwave drying to many material have been shown on the laboratory or pilot-plant scale. The microwave drying behavior of plating sludge are considered in this paper. The plating sludge containing 70%, 80% and 90% water exposed to microwave power at 2,450 MHz, 700W. An experimental microwave drying apparatus was designed and constructed to monitor weight loss during drying. By studying the drying characteristic curve, the moisture in sludge was almost classified into two categories : free moisture and intestinal moisture. And the critical moisture contents at which the drying rate ceases to be constant were from 10.1 to 10.5%. A simple drying model is proposed which may be used to describe drying behavior of plating sludge. The constant rate and the falling rate periods in microwave drying were addressed separately. From the eqation of constant rate period the drying rate constants decreased exponentially with increasing depth. Microwave heating compared with conventional heating offered higher heating rates from 9 to 16 times. Therefore, microwave drying process can be effective in removing moisture from plating sludge.

Rotating fluid induced vibration and instability of embedded piezoelectric nano-composite separators subjected to magnetic and electric fields is the main contribution of present work. The separator is modeled with cylindrical shell element and the structural damping effects are considered by Kelvin-Voigt model. Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are used as reinforcement and effective material properties are obtained by mixture rule. The perturbation velocity potential in conjunction with the linearized Bernoulli formula is used for describing the rotating fluid motion. The orthotropic surrounding elastic medium is considered by spring, damper and shear constants. The governing equations are derived on the bases of classical shell theory (CST), first order shear deformation theory (FSDT) and sinusoidal shear deformation theory (SSDT). The nonlinear frequency and critical angular fluid velocity are calculated by differential quadrature method (DQM). The detailed parametric study is conducted, focusing on the combined effects of the external voltage, magnetic field, visco-Pasternak foundation, structural damping and volume percent of SWCNTs on the stability of structure. The numerical results are validated with other published works as well as comparing results obtained by three theories. Numerical results indicate that with increasing volume fraction of SWCNTs, the frequency and critical angular fluid velocity are increased.

In this article, the surface stress effects on the buckling analysis of the annular sandwich plate is developed. The proposed plate is composed of two face layers made of carbon nanotubes (CNT) reinforced composite with assuming of fully bonded to functionally graded porous core. The generalized rule of the mixture is employed to predict the mechanical properties of the microcomposite sandwich plate. The derived potentials energy based on higher order shear deformation theory (HSDT) and modified couple stress theory (MCST) is solved by employing the Ritz method. An exact analytical solution is presented to calculate the critical buckling loads of the annular sandwich plate. The predicted results are validated by carrying out the comparison studies for the buckling analysis of annular plates with those obtained by other analytical and finite element methods. The effects of various parameters such as material length scale parameter, core thickness to total thickness ratio (hc/h), surface elastic constants based on surface stress effect, various boundary condition and porosity distributions, size of the internal pores (e0), Skempton coefficient and elastic foundation on the critical buckling load have been studied. The results can be served as benchmark data for future works and also in the design of materials science, injunction high-pressure micropipe connections, nanotechnology, and smart systems.

We investigate the existence of multiple nontrivial solutions $u(x,t)$ for a perturbation $b[({\xi}-{\eta}+2)^+-2]$ of the hyperbolic system with Dirichlet boundary condition $$(0.1)\;L{\xi}={\mu}[({\xi}-{\eta}+2)^+-2]\;in\;({-{\frac{{\pi}}{2}}},{\frac{{\pi}}{2}}){\times}\mathbb{R},\\L{\eta}={\nu}[({\xi}-{\eta}+2)^+-2]\;in\;({-{\frac{{\pi}}{2}}},{\frac{{\pi}}{2}}){\times}\mathbb{R},$$, where $u^+$=max{u,o}, ${\mu}$, ${\nu}$ are nonzero constants. Here L is the wave operator in $\mathbb{R}^2$ and the nonlinearity $({\mu}-{\nu})[({\xi}-{\eta}+2)^+-2]$ crosses the eigenvalues of the wave operator.

In this paper we develop a test for alternatives representing decreasing mean residual life. The test statistic for decreasing mean residual life, $K_{1n}$, is a modified version of Hollander and Proschan's test $V^*$ and critical constants and large sample approximation are shown to make the test readily applicable. Consistency is also shown for the tests based on $K_{1n}$. And small sample powers for four alernatives are obtained.

In this Paper, we examine the limiting distributional behaviour of extreme values of mixed Erlang random variables. We show that, in the finite mixture of Erlang distributions, the component distribution with an asymptotically dominant tail has a critical effect on the asymptotic extreme behavior of the mixture distribution and it converges to the Gumbel extreme-value distribution. Normalizing constants are also established. We apply this result to characterize the asymptotic distribution of maxima of sojourn times in M/M/s queuing system. We also show that Erlang mixtures with continuous mixing may converge to the Gumbel or Type II extreme-value distribution depending on their mixing distributions, considering two special cases of uniform mixing and exponential mixing.

In this paper, the lateral-torsional buckling of axially-transversally functionally graded tapered beam is investigated. The structure cross-section is assumed to be symmetric I-section, and it is continuously laterally supported by torsional springs through the length. In addition, the height of cross-section varies linearly throughout the length of structure. The proposed formulation is obtained for the case that the elastic and shear modulus change as a power function along the beam length and section height. This structure carries two concentrated moments at the ends. In this study, the lateral displacement and twisting angle relation of the beam are defined by sinusoidal series. After establishing the eigenvalue equation of unknown constants, the beam critical bending moment is found. To validate the accuracy and correctness of results, several numerical examples are solved.

In this paper, the influence of many factors related to the concrete mixture and the weather condition on plastic shrinkage cracking are analyzed through parametric studies using the numerical models introduced in the companion paper. First of all, through a systematic calculation of bleeding, the relationship between the bleeding constants and concrete mixture is proposed on the basis of the experimental data obtained by many researchers. Moreover, an equation, which can directly determine a critical point at which the evaporation and bleeding is balanced, is introduced, and the efficiency of the introduced equation is verified through the correlation study between the obtained results by the introduced equation and those by the rigorous analyses. The introduced equation can effectively be used to predict and to prevent plastic shrinkage cracking without any rigorous analysis and, in advance, to cope with the sudden changes in the concrete mixture and/or weather condition.
