37. Growth and yield models for eucalyptus stands obtained by differential equations
ABSTRACT: The main purpose of this study was to assess nonlinear models generated by integrating the basal area growth rate to estimate the growth and yield of forest stands. The database was collected from permanent sample units, in Paraopeba county, in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. The stands were represented by Eucalyptus camaldulensis × Eucalyptus

38. Discharge of Non-Reactive Fluids from Vessels
Abstract This paper presents simulations of discharges from pressure vessels that consistently account for non-ideal fluid behavior in all the required thermodynamic properties and individually considers all the chemical components present. The underlying assumption is that phase equilibrium occurs instantaneously inside the vessel and, thus, the dynamics of

39. A TVD scheme for 3d unstructured grids applied to compositional reservoir simulation
Abstract In reducing the grid orientation effect for the numerical solution of partial differential equations, interpolation functions play an important role when the advective transport of the governing equations is considered. This is due to the fact that, in general, the unknowns are evaluated in the vertices of the elements and such properties must be ex

40. Nonlinear Vibration Analysis of Euler-Bernoulli Beams by Using Continuous Galerkin-Petrov Time-Discretization Method
Abstract In this paper, we present a new numerical method for nonlinear vibrational analysis of Euler-Bernoulli beams. Our approach is based on the continuous Galerkin-Petrov time discretization method. The Euler-Bernoulli beam equation which governs its vibrations is transformed into set of ordinary differential equations and the presented method is employe

41. Free Vibration Analysis of Reinforced Composite Functionally Graded Plates with Steady State Thermal Conditions
Abstract The present paper deals with free vibration of functionally graded fiber reinforced rectangular plates subjected to thermal loads. The rectangular plates are assumed orthotropic. The continuous grading fiber reinforced plates have a smooth variation in matrix volume fraction in the thickness direction. Two different types of volume fraction profiles

42. Analysis of Spinodal Decomposition in Al-Zn and Al-Zn-Cu Alloys Using the Nonlinear Cahn-Hilliard Equation
The phase field model based on the nonlinear Cahn-Hilliard equation was applied to analyze the spinodal decomposition process in Al-Zn and Al-Zn-Cu alloys. Partial differential equations were solved using the explicit finite difference method for the Al- 20, and 35 at. % Zn alloys aged at temperatures between 25 and 100 °C for times from 10 s to 2000 s and

43. Mechanics of Cable-Suspended Beams
Abstract The cable-suspended bridges differ from the elastic structures because of the inherent nonlinearity of the suspension cables. The primary focus of the available theories is to investigate the effect of nonlinearities associated with the distributed self-weight of the cable and its finite elastic displacements. The main point of departure of this pap

44. EDFA Design and Analysis for WDM Optical Systems Based on Modal Multiplexing
Abstract Modal multiplexing (MDM) is a core technology to allow a capacity increase in modern optical systems. However, in MDM links, the amplified WDM signal suffers not only from lack of spectral gain equalization but also from unequal modal gain. The proper design of the MDM-EDFA is crucial to provide modal gain equalization and to overcome those impairme

45. Theoretical Analysis of Stress Distribution in Bonded Single Strap and Stiffened Joints
Abstract In this paper, distribution of peeling stress in two types of adhesively-bonded joints is investigated. The joints are a single strap and a stiffened joint. Theses joints are under uniform tensile load and materials are assumed orthotropic. Layers can be identical or different in mechanical or geometrical properties. A two-dimensional elasticity the

46. Behavioral Study of Finite Beam Resting on Elastic Foundation and Subjected to Travelling Distributed Masses
Abstract The classical problem of the response characteristics of uniform structural member resting on elastic subgrade and subjected to uniform partially distributed load is studied in this work. The closed form solutions of the governing fourth order partial differential equations with variable coefficients are presented using an elegant analytical techniq

47. Parametrization of the Davis Growth Model using data of crossbred Zebu cattle
ABSTRACT: The system of differential equations proposed by Oltjen et al. [1986, named Davis Growth Model (DGM)] to represent cattle growth has been parameterized with data from Bos taurus (British) and Bos indicus (Nellore) breeds. The DGM has been successfully used for simulation and decision support in the United States. However, the effect of about 30 yea

48. Viscoelastic Substrates Effects on the Elimination or Reduction of the Sandwich Structures Oscillations Based on the Kelvin-Voigt Model
Abstract Effects of viscoelastic substrates on the sandwich structures oscillations are examined in this paper. In this regard, dynamic response of sandwich annular panels with FG polar orthotropic face sheets resting on viscoelastic substrate is presented. Young’s modulus in the radial and circumferential direction, shear modulus and density of each face
