1. Effect of Aerodynamic Configuration Parameters on Lateral-Directional Stability of Double-Swept Flying Wing Aircraft
ABSTRACT: Poor lateral-directional stability due to the absence of vertical stabilizer is a great risk to the aircraft with flying wing layout. In this paper, an unmanned aerial vehicle with this kind of configuration is chosen as the research object. A three-dimensional model of the unmanned aerial vehicle is established, and then the sensitivity analysis i

2. 2D analysis of laminated composite and sandwich plates using a new fifth-order plate theory
Abstract In the present paper, a new fifth-order shear and normal deformation theory (FOSNDT) is developed for the bi-directional bending analysis of laminated composite and sandwich plates subjected to transverse loads. This theory considered the effects of both transverse shear and normal deformations. In-plane displacements use a polynomial shape function

3. Preparation and Growth Characterization of Al2Cu Phase Crystal with the Single Orientation Under Directional Solidification
Through decreasing the sample size, the regular faceted rectangular Al2Cu phase crystal was prepared under directional solidification. Effects of sample size on the microstructure morphologies and orientations of intermetallic Al2Cu phase crystal growth at 10 µm/s have been characterized and investigated. The transverse-section microstructure of primary Al2

4. Investigation of the Elastic Properties of Graphenylene Using Molecular Dynamics Simulations
Molecular dynamics simulations are used here to study the mechanical behavior of graphenylene under uni-directional and bi-directional loadings. The effects of nanosheet chirality and size on Young's modulus of graphenylene are investigated. Compared to graphene, graphenylene possess a smaller elastic modulus. It is shown that for large armchair and zigzag g

5. Transient Directional Solidification of Cast Iron: Microstructure Formation, Columnar to Equiaxed Transition and Hardness
A number of applications may require cast iron. Engine cylinder blocks, flywheels, gearbox cases, machine-tool bases may be manufactured by using grey cast iron while bearing surfaces with white cast iron. Thus, understanding the solidification behaviour of eutectic cast iron becomes an essential task, with certain points to be accomplished. Transient direct

6. Microstructural Evolution and Mechanical Properties in Directionally Solidified Sn–10.2 Sb Peritectic Alloy at a Constant Temperature Gradient
The Sn–10.2 Sb (mass fraction) peritectic alloy was prepared using a vacuum melting furnace and a hot filling furnace. The samples were directionally solidified upwards at steady state conditions with a constant temperature gradient (G=4.5±0.2 K. mm-1) under different growth velocities (V=13.3–266.7 µm. s-1) in a Bridgman-type directional solidificatio

7. A Compact Dual-Band Octagonal Slotted Printed Monopole Antenna for WLAN/ WiMAX and UWB Applications
AbstractA compact (20 x 20 mm2 size), coplanar waveguide (CPW) fed, octagonal slotted, dual-band antenna is presented in this paper. The proposed antenna has a simple structure consisting of an octagonal slot, L-shape stub, and a two stepped rectangular patch. The introduction of the L-shaped metallic stubs in the ground plane generates a lower resonance fre

8. Finite element analysis for mechanical characterization of 4D inplane carbon/carbon composite with imperfect microstructure
Finite element mesh of multi-directional 4D carbon/carbon (C/C) composite was reconstructed from 2D images obtained by X-ray tomography. Thus, imperfections in the composite such as voids, misalignment and cross-section distortion of the fibre bundles were directly incorporated in the finite element mesh. 2D images of the composite were also used for the cha

9. An experiment set-up for analysis of lateralization judgments of binaural stimuli
INTRODUCTION: The aim of this work is to present a physical implementation of a noninvasive methodology to analyze the directional sensitivity of human auditory system. A computer controlled experiment set-up has been designed and developed to study the behavior of human subjects under the presentation of interaural time delays and interaural amplitude diffe

10. GABA-induced inactivation of Cebus apella V2 neurons: effects on orientation tuning and direction selectivity
We investigated the GABA-induced inactivation of V2 neurons and terminals on the receptive field properties of this area in an anesthetized and paralyzedCebus apella monkey. Extracellular single-unit activity was recorded using tungsten microelectrodes in a monkey before and after pressure-injection of a 0.25 or 0.5 M GABA solution. The visual stimulus consi

11. Modelagem estatística de extremos espaciais com base em processos max-stable aplicados a dados meteorológicos no estado do Paraná / Statistical modelling of spatial extremes based on max-stable processes applied to environmental data in the Parana State
The most mathematical models developed for rare events are based on probabilistic models for extremes. Although the tools for statistical modeling of univariate and multivariate extremes are well-developed, the extension of these tools to model spatial extremes data is currently a very active area of research. Modeling of maximum values under the spatial dom

12. Advertisement call propagation and species recognition in anurans: in time and space / Propagação e reconhecimento específico do canto de anúncio de anuros: no tempo e no espaço
This study evaluates the influence of the vegetation structure on the advertisement call propagation and the evolution of acoustic communication in anurans. The first chapter reviews the literature on the effects of vegetation in the advertisement-call transmission, addressing directly or not, the Acoustic Adaptation Hypothesis. The studies found were analyz
