In this work, a method for solving the differential form of the radiative transfer equation was implemented into an existing three-dimensional thermal-hydraulic computer program known as TEMPEST. The method used was the P-l approximation, where the angular distribution of the radiation intensity is represented by a truncated series of spherical...
A dynamic propagation of a finite crack of opening
mode in a micropolar elastic solid was investigated.
By using an integral transform method, a pair of twodimensional
singular integral equations governing
stress and couple stress was formulated in terms of the
displacement transverse to the crack, macro- and microrotations,
and...
The validity of the widely used stochastic linearization
method for analysing the response of guyed towers to stochastic loads
is investigated. The governing equations of a guyed tower have two
main sources of nonlinearities, fluid-structure interaction and the
restoring force of the cables. In this study, two models are
considered....
