Efficiency study of a commercial thermoelectric power generator (TEG) under thermal cycling
(2010)Thermoelectric generators (TEGs) make use of the Seebeck effect in semiconductors for the direct conversion of heat to electrical energy. The possible use of a device consisting of numerous TEG modules for waste heat ...

Seismic Rehabilitation of Substandard R.C. Buildings with Masonry Infills
(2018)Seismic deformation demands are localized in areas of stiffness discontinuity, such as in the soft storys of frame structures, where disproportionate damage is often reported in post-earthquake reconnaissance. In many parts ...

Sharkskin and oscillating melt fracture: Why in slit and capillary dies and not in annular dies?
(2008)The sharkskin and stick-slip polymer extrusion instabilities are studied primarily as functions of the type of die geometry. Experimental observations concerning the flow curves, the critical wall shear stress for the onset ...

The singular function boundary integral method for a two-dimensional fracture problem
(2006)The singular function boundary integral method (SFBIM) originally developed for Laplacian problems with boundary singularities is extended for solving two-dimensional fracture problems formulated in terms of the Airy stress ...

Stress intensity factor computation using the method of fundamental solutions
(2006)In this paper, we study the application of the method of fundamental solutions to the computation of stress intensity factors in linear elastic fracture mechanics. The displacements are approximated by linear combinations ...

Stress intensity factor computation using the method of fundamental solutions: Mixed-mode problems
(2007)The method of fundamental solutions is applied to the computation of stress intensity factors in linear elastic fracture mechanics. The displacements are approximated by linear combinations of the fundamental solutions of ...
