When performing a safety assessment of a transport flask with balsa-filled shock absorbers it is important to know how the shock absorbers, which may have the outer skin punctured by an impact, will perform in a fire. A 30 minute pool test, which satisfie...
Many problems related to the energetic operation planning of electric power systems are difficult to solve computationally because they need complex or still unavailable mathematical models or they deal with methodologies that changes frequently. In this ...
Two pot experiments were carried out in greenhouse, with the objective of evaluating the isotopic dilution method with the addition of (sup 15) N fertilizer to the soil for evaluation of biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) by legumes. Experiment I: with ad...

The use of dynamic vibration absorbers to control the vibration of a structure in both narrow and broadbands is discussed in this paper. As a benchmark problem, a plate incorporating multiple vibration absorbers is formulated, leading to an analytical solution when the number of absorbers yields one. Using this analytical solution, ...

Many practical problems involve wave propagation through atmosphere, oceans, or terrestrial crust. Modeling and analysis of these problems is usually done in (semi)infinite domains, but numerical calculations obviously impose restriction to finite domains. To mimic the actual behavior in the (semi)infinite medium, artificial absorbing boundary conditions are imposed at the ...
