One a possible constructive geometrical derivation of Mercator's conformal cylindrical map projection based on some historical facts
(Heldermann Verlag, 2006)
In modern cartography, Mercator's conformal cylindrical map projection is mathematically described by equations which involve logarithmic and trigonometric functions. It is evident that calculus and di®erential geometry ...
Fatigue damage detection in composite rods using fiber optic intensity based sensors
(Trans Tech Publications Ltd, 2004)
An application of the embedded intensity based fiber optic sensors (FOS) for fatigue damage detection in cantilevered composite rods is presented. During the fatigue test with constant amplitude of oscillations, the ...
Should particle trajectories comply with the transverse momentum distribution?
(European Physical Journal-Special Topics, 2008)
The momentum distributions associated with both the wave function of a particle behind a grating and the corresponding Bohmian trajectories are investigated and compared. Near the grating, it is observed that the former ...
Energy distribution of X-rays reflected from a half space in double collision approximation
(Elsevier Ltd, 2006)
The results obtained in a Monte Carlo simulation of X-ray reflection from water show that for energies up to 20 keV, single and double reflected photons absolutely dominate. Analyzing in detail geometry of the collisions ...
Quantum operators in Weyl quantization procedure via Wigner representation of quantum mechanics - quantum phase operator as a special case
(Wiley-VCH Verlag, 2003)
Coherent states, in Wigner representation of quantum mechanics which is classical in structure with Wigner function playing the role of classical phase space probability distribution, and standard quantum mechanical ...
Thermoinelasticity of Damaged Elastomers by Self-consistent Method
(International Journal of Damage Mechanics, 2008)
This study deals with an elastomer body having a random 3D distribution of two types of inclusions: spheroidal mutually parallel voids and differently oriented reinforcing parallel elastomeric stiff spheroidal short fibers. ...
The influence of digital elevation model resolution on overland flow networks for modelling urban pluvial flooding
(IWA Publishing, 2009)
This paper presents the developments towards the next generation of overland flow modelling of urban pluvial flooding. Using a detailed analysis of the Digital Elevation Model (DEM) the developed GIS tools can automatically ...
Modelling of laser-material interaction using semi-analytical approach
(Elsevier, 2004)
In this paper different aspects of laser-material interaction were considered. Semi-analytical method was developed and applied to analysis of spatial and temporal distribution of temperature field inside bulk materials. ...
Governing factors for motor oil removal from water with different sorption materials
(Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2008)
This paper has been focused on the sorbent efficiency for motor oil removal from water. Two types of sorbents were investigated: organic and inorganic. Natural wool fibers (NWFs) and recycled-wool-based nonwoven material ...
Low energy impact damage detection in laminar termoplastic composite materials by means of embedded optical fibers
(Materials Science Forum, 2005)
The possibility of applying optical fibers as sensors for investigation of real time low energy impact damage in laminar thermoplastic composite materials has been studied. For that purpose intensity based optical fibers ...
