  1. 1. Dynamic Equations foe Spherical and Cylindrical Shells Using Power Series Method

    Author : Reza Okhovat; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; power series.; surface differential operators; shell equations; eigenfrequency; anisotropy; Spherical shell; cylindrical shell; dynamics;

    Abstract : Shells are commonly used in many branches of engineeringand have therefore beeninvestigated for a number of different types of shells.A shell can be considered as a curved plate having small thickness compared to the other geometrical dimensions as well as to the wavelengths of importance.

  2. 2. Dynamic Equations for Spherical, Orthotropic and Piezoelectric Cylindrical Shells Using the Power Series Method

    Author : Reza Okhovat; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; shell equations; cylindrical shell; eigenfrequency.; piezoelectricity; Shells; Hamilton’s principle; surface differential operators; recursion relations; spherical shell; orthotropic; dynamics;

    Abstract : Shells are commonly used in many branches of engineering, and have therefore beeninvestigated for a number of different types of shells. A shell is considered to be curved aplate with small thickness compared both to the other geometrical dimensions as well asto the wavelengths of importance. READ MORE

  3. 3. Dynamic Plate and Shell Equations Using Power Series Expansions - Applications Including Elasticity, Poroelasticity and Fluid Loading

    Author : Anders Hägglund; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; approximate boundary conditions; series expansion; Biot equations; vibrations; cylindrical shell; dispersion curves; plate theory; thin shells; porous plate;

    Abstract : Thin structures are used in a wide range of engineering applications. The subject of this thesis is the derivation of approximate equations for the dynamics of thin plates and shells using series expansion methods. READ MORE

  4. 4. Mixture Effects in Shell-and-Tube Condensers. Theory and Calculations

    Author : Tord Karlsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; shell-and-tube; heat transfer; zeotropic; condensation; mass transfer; mixture;

    Abstract : Zeotropic mixtures have come into more frequent use as working fluids (refrigerants) in heat pumps and air conditioning equipment due to the phase-out of ozone-depleting substances. Substantial drop in performance for shell-side condensation in shell-and-tube condensers when replacing a pure fluid with a mixture has been reported in the literature. READ MORE

  5. 5. Direct and Inverse Methods for Waveguides and Scattering Problems in the Time Domain

    Author : Erik Abenius; Per Lötstedt; Mats Gustafsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Maxwell s equations; time-domain; FDTD; finite-element; hybrid; thin sheet; waveguide; PML; inverse scattering; adjoint; gradient-based; minimization; Beräkningsvetenskap med inriktning mot numerisk analys; Scientific Computing with specialization in Numerical Analysis;

    Abstract : Numerical simulation is an important tool in understanding the electromagnetic field and how it interacts with the environment. Different topics for time-domain finite-difference (FDTD) and finite-element (FETD) methods for Maxwell's equations are treated in this thesis. READ MORE
