The novelty of this paper is the use of a simple higher order shear and normal deformation theory for bending and free vibration analysis of functionally graded material (FGM) beams on two-parameter elastic foundation. To this aim, a new shear strain shape function is considered. Moreover, the proposed theory considers a novel displacement field which includes undetermined integral terms and contains fewer unknowns with taking into account the effects of both transverse shear and thickness stretching. Different patterns of porosity distributions (including even and uneven distribution patterns, and the logarithmic-uneven pattern) are considered. In addition, the effect of different micromechanical models on the bending and free vibration response of these beams is studied. Various micromechanical models are used to evaluate the mechanical characteristics of the FG beams for which properties vary continuously across the thickness according to a simple power law. Hamilton's principle is used to derive the governing equations of motion. Navier type analytical solutions are obtained for the bending and vibration problems. Numerical results are obtained to investigate the effects of power-law index, length-to-thickness ratio, foundation parameter, the volume fraction of porosity and micromechanical models on the displacements, stresses, and frequencies.

This paper investigates the mechanical behavior of a new type of functionally graded graphene-reinforced nanocomposite (FG-GRNC) doubly-curved laminated shells, referred to as cosine FG-GRNC. The study employs a refined higher-order shear deformation shell theory combined with a modified continuum nonlocal strain gradient theory. The effective Young's modulus of the GRNC shell in the thickness direction is determined using the modified Halpin-Tsai model, while Poisson's ratio and mass density are calculated using the rule of mixtures. The analysis includes two graphene-reinforced distribution patterns-FG-A CNRCs and FG-B CNRCs-along with uniform UD CNRCs. An enhanced Galerkin method is used to solve the governing equilibrium equations for the GRNC nanoshell, yielding closed-form solutions for bending deflection and critical buckling loads. The nanoshell is supported by an orthotropic elastic foundation characterized by three parameters. A detailed parametric analysis is performed to evaluate how factors such as the length scale parameter, nonlocal parameter, distribution pattern, GPL weight fraction, shell thickness, and shell geometry influence deflections and critical buckling loads.

In this paper, the dispersion characteristics of elastic waves propagation in sandwich nano-beams with functionally graded (FG) face-sheets reinforced with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is investigated based on various high order shear deformation beam theories (HOSDBTs) as well as nonlocal strain gradient theory (NSGT). In order to align CNTs as symmetric and asymmetric in top and bottom face-sheets with respect to neutral geometric axis of the sandwich nano-beam, various patterns are employed in this analysis. The sandwich nano-beam resting on Pasternak foundation is subjected to thermal, magnetic and electrical fields. In order to involve small scale parameter in governing equations, the NSGT is employed for this analysis. The governing equations of motion are derived using Hamilton's principle based on various HSDBTs. Then the governing equations are solved using analytical method. A detailed parametric study is conducted to study the effects of length scale parameter, different HSDBTs, the nonlocal parameter, various aligning of CNTs in thickness direction of face-sheets, different volume fraction of CNTs, foundation stiffness, applied voltage, magnetic intensity field and temperature change on the wave propagation characteristics of sandwich nano-beam. Also cut-off frequency and phase velocity are investigated in detail. According to results obtained, UU and VA patterns have the same cut-off frequency value but AV pattern has the lower value with respect to them.

In general, the most important problem in slope stability analysis is that there is no definite way to describe the natural three-dimensional Joint network. Therefore, the many approaches were tried to anlayze the slope stability. Numerical modeling approach is one of the branch to resolve the complexity of natural system. UDEC, FLAC, and SWEDGE are widely used commercial code for the purpose on stability analysis. For the purpose on the more appropriate application of these kind of code, however, three-dimensional distribution of joint network must be identified in more explicit way. Remaining problem is to definitely describe the three dimensional network of joint and bedding, but it is almost impossible in practical sense. Three dimensional joint generation method with random number generation and the results of generation to UDEC have been applied to settle the refered problems in field site. However, this approach also has a important problem, and it is that joint network is generated only once. This problem lead to the limitation on the application to field case, in practical sense. To get rid of this limitation, Monte Carlo Simulation is proposed in this study 1) statistical analysis of input values and definition of the applied system with statistical parameter, 2) instead of the consideration of generated network as a real system, generated system is just taken as one reliable system, 3) present the design parameters, through the statistical analysis of ouput values Results of this study are not only the probability of failure, but also area of failure block, shear strength, normal strength and failure pattern, and all of these results are described in statistical parameters. The results of this study, shear strength, failure area, pattern etc, can provide the direct basement on the design, cutoff angle, support pattern, support strength and etc.

We have demonstrated the resonant resistance pattern changes of the polymer film in the quartz crystal analysis by the function of the molecular polarity phase transition phenomena. PVA and PMMA/PVAc blend films were used as hydrophilic and/or hydrophbic film, respectively. In the comparison between the hydrophilic shows the pattern changes near by the phase transition temperature. For more detailed explanation, the static capacity in the oscillation parameter was measured and the morphology of Au quartz crystal electrode was studied by AFM. It is suggested that the different resonant resistance pattern change is reliable in the condition of different polarity, and the conclusion is important to analysis of the real mechanism a normal quartz crystal experiments.

Most methods for detecting PVC and APC require the measurement of accurate QRS complex, P wave and T wave. In this study, we propose new algorithm for detecting PVC and APC without using complex parameter and algorithms. Proposed algorithm have wide applicability to abnormal waveform by personal distinction and difference as well as all sorts of normal waveform on ECG. To achieve this, we separate ECG signal into each unit patterns and made a standard unit pattern by just using unit patterns which have normal R-R internal. After that, we detect PVC and APC by using similarity analysis for pattern matching between standard unit pattern and each unit patterns.

The paper deals with the analysis of radiation characteristics of antenna in the multi-layered media structures. The dyadic Green's function for three layer medium is complex because the Green's functions belonging to the kernel of the integral equation are expressed as Sommerfeld integrals, in which surface wave effects are automatically included. When certain condition are met, the integral can be evaluated approximated by the method of Saddle-point integration. In this study, we propose a method to calculate a radiation pattern for several antennas by using the method of Saddle-point integration. Numerical results show how the radiation characteristics are affected by parameter of dielectric media.

To describe the performance of an antenna, some parameters are necessary. Some of the parameters are interrelate and not all of them must be specified for complete description of antenna performance. The parameters in characteristics of printed antenna for this analysis are radiation pattern, input impedance, VSWR, S parameter and electromagnetic field. In this paper we will consider two shaped of slot antennas one is triangular slot antenna and other is L - shape slot antenna for compare the radiation pattern, return loss, and VSWR. Two slot antennas are designed to have a resonant frequency at 10 GHz. The microstrip line is designed to be 50 ohms in order to match the measurement system, it has the substrate of the thickness = 1.52 mm and dielectric constant (${\varepsilon}_r$) 2.17.

Nanoimprint lithography (NIL) process at room temperature has been newly proposed in recent years to overcome the shape accuracy and sticking problem induced in a conventional NIL process. Success of the room temperature NIL relies on the accurate understand of the mechanical behavior of the polymer. Since a conventional NIL process has to heat a polymer above the glass transition temperature to deform the physical shape of the polymer with a mold pattern, viscoelastic property of polymer have major effect on the NIL process. However, rate dependent behavior of polymer is important in the room temperature NIL process because a mold with engraved patterns is rapidly pressed onto a substrate coated with the polymer by the hydraulic equipment. In this paper, finite element analysis of the room temperature NIL process is performed with considering the strain rate dependent behavior of the polymer. The analyses with the variation of imprinting speed and imprinting pattern are carried out in order to investigate the effect of such process parameters on the room temperature NIL process. The analyses results show that the deformed shape and imprint force is quite different with the variation of punch speed because the dynamic behavior of the polymer is considered with the rate dependent plasticity model. The results provide a guideline for the determination of process conditions in the room temperature NIL process.
