Boron nanowires (BNWs) may have potential applications as reinforcing materials because B fibers are widely known for their excellent mechanical performance. However until now, there have been only ...

In an elegant fusion of art and science, researchers at Rice University have achieved a major milestone in nanomaterials ...

We present a general and interpretable adatom model that enables the prediction and understanding of stable surface morphologies of nonmetallic elements deposited on metal substrates. By calculating ...

In this paper, we propose a modeling procedure and the design criterion for the simulation in 2-D of an inductor with a POT-type ferrite core. The procedure is capable of reproducing both the ...

The polarizable charge equilibration (PQEq) method was developed to provide a simple but accurate description of the electrostatic interactions and polarization effects in materials. Previously, we ...

In high speed machines, the skin and proximity effects cause significant increase of the total copper losses in stator windings at the high frequency. The cause and behavior of the eddy currents are ...

We present a generalized finite element model of magnetostriction phenomena where the direct and inverse effects are taken into account. The variational formulation in terms of magnetic vector ...

The machining of titanium alloys poses several inherent difficulties owing to their unique mechanical properties and cutting characteristics. Finite element (FE) simulations have reduced the burden of ...

Abstract In this paper, a finite element (FE)-based model that efficiently evaluates the dynamic behavior of dam-reservoir-foundation interaction (DRFI) problem was proposed including the radiation of ...
