Displacement calculus of the functionally graded plates by finite element method
This paper presents our researching results regarding numerical calculus by Finite Element Method (FEM) of the Functionally Graded Plates (FGP). Two approching ways were used: the concept of multilayered plate and the concept of equivalent plate.

Towards a Highly Sensitive Piezoelectric Nano-Mass Detection—A Model-Based Concept Study
The detection of exceedingly small masses still presents a large challenge, and even though very high sensitivities have been archived, the fabrication of those setups is still difficult. In this paper, a novel approach for a co-resonant mass detector is

AbstractDuctile failure of polymeric samples weakened by circular arc cracks is studied theoretically and experimentally in this research. Various arrangements of cracks with different arc angles are considered in the specimens such that crack tips experienced the mixed mode I/II loading conditions.

Structure of Gamma-Ray Burst jets: intrinsic versus apparent properties [PDF]
With this paper we introduce the concept of apparent structure of a GRB jet, as opposed to its intrinsic structure. The latter is customarily defined specifying the functions epsilon(theta) (the energy emitted per jet unit solid angle) and Gamma(theta ...
