Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Analysis for The FGM Thick Cylinders Under Combined Pressure and Temperature LoadingK. Abrinia, H. Naee, F. Sadeghi, F. DjavanroodiAn analytical solution for computing the radial and circumferential stresses in a FGM thick cylindrical vessel under the influence of internal pressure and temperature is presented in this paper. It has been assumed that the modulus of elasticity and thermal coefficient of expansion were varying through thickness of the FGM material according to a power law relationship. Nevertheless the value … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 7,123 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Stent Geometry on Phase Shift between Pressure and Flow Waveforms in Stented Human Coronary ArteryVahab Dehlaghi, Siamak Najarian, Mohammad Tafazzoli ShadpourShear stress is known to play a central role in restenosis formation and is sensitive to stent geometry. Alterations of the phase shift between pressure and flow waveform created by a different stents were studied to compare the hemodynamic effects of stent design properties on restenosis in stented human coronary artery. Blood pressure waveforms were computed in three different sites, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2008 · 7,252 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFinite Element Analysis of Frictional Contact Problem During the Process of Metal WorkingNicolae PopThe quasistatic contact problem with dry friction, contributes to the achievement of a numerical model for the simultaneity of different kinds of viscoplastic, incompressible materials forming. Starting from a variational formulation of the problem, which extends the static case, a perturbed Lagrangean, discrete formulation within the framework of finite element method is obtained. On the contact boundary we have used … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2008 · 7,293 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTactile Distinction of an Artery and a Tumor in a Soft Tissue by Finite Element MethodAli Abouei Mehrizi, Siamak Najarian, Majid Moini, Farhad Tabatabai GhomsheTactile detection of a tumor and an artery in a tissue and distinction of a healthy artery from a stenotic artery, using finite element method, are presented. Four 2D models of tissue have been created: tissue itself, tissue including a tumor (TIT), tissue including a healthy artery (TIHA), and tissue including a stenotic artery (TISA). After solving four models with … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2008 · 7,596 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Analysis of Pulsatile Blood Flow in a Stented Human Coronary Artery with a Flow DividerVahab Dehlaghi, Mohammad Tafazoli Shadpoor, Siamak NajarianShear stress is known to play a central role in restenosis formation and is sensitive to stent geometry. Local flow alterations created by a different stents without and with flow divider were studied to compare the hemodynamic effects of Stent design properties on restenosis in stented human coronary artery. Blood pressure and shear stress values were computed in three different … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,521 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReservoir Oscillations with Through FlowA.A. KhanThe two-reservoir problem with through flow is a common feature in wastewater treatment plants. The start of the through flow may cause water surface oscillations in the reservoirs and velocity variations in the connecting pipe during the initial unsteady phase that may adversely affect the operation and under certain conditions may cause overtopping of the upstream reservoir. The classical solution … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,030 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Two Dimensional Infinite Element Model to Study Temperature Distribution in Human Dermal Regions due to TumorsK. R. pardasani, Madhvi shakyaIn this study, a two dimensional infinite element model has been developed to study thermal effect in human dermal regions due to tumors. This model incorporates the effect of blood mass flow rate, metabolic heat generation and thermal conductivity of the tissues.The dermal region is divided into three natural layers, namely, epidermis, dermis and subdermal tissues. A uniformly perfused tumor … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,372 accessesView PDF Cite
