Instead of approaches of solid mechanics or a formal description of experimental data an interdisciplinary approach is proposed to consider failure and deformation as thermodynamic processes. Mathematical modeling of the processes is carried out using rheological models of the material. One fracture criterion is used, that formally corresponds to the achievement of a threshold concentration…

The main goal of the work is to determine the basic conceptual solutions of a nuclear reactor operating on the surface of another planet. The problem was solved using the example of the Martian nuclear power plant. The article uses calculation and optimization research methods and corresponding program codes (well-known and author’s). The results of…

The research investigated the consequence of self-regulated learning on students’ academic performance in physics, using selected public co-education schools in Aguata Educational Zone, Anambra State as the research area. The study became necessary as a result of the observed persistent poor performance of the student in Physics in external examinations over the years. The study…

In this investigation, an integrated physics-informed deep learning and topology optimization approach for solving density-based topology designs is presented to accomplish efficiency and flexibility. In every iteration, the neural network generates feasible topology designs, and then the topology performance is evaluated using the finite element method. Unlike the data-driven methods where the loss functions are…

Skewing of the rotor slot of a squirrel-cage induction machine has been commonly used since the beginning. However, little guidance is given regarding the principle of the working effect of the method, but even in such rare cases, the explanation does not cover the true physical reality. Consequently no formula exists for calculation of the…

The article is devoted to the methods of monitoring and control of vibration processes occurring in the structure and units of complex and unique electromechanical equipment. The monitoring object is considered as a dynamic multidimensional information object, for the study of which analytical and numerical methods of modeling and simulation of multidimensional chaotic systems are…

This article extends novelty of modeling capacitive accelerometer with PID controller to provide PI controller for better tuning and statistical test to determine the linear validation characteristics of closed capacitive accelerometer. Capacitive accelerometer is a sensor which uses the dynamic law of physics model Position-Velocity-Accelerator (PVA) by the movement of an electrode coupled to mass…

The aim of this study is, on the one hand learn about this type of wood, and on the other hand, is to study the processes the thermophysical characterization of araucaria wood from the city of el Jadida, Morocco, and on the other hand, will study the processes related to evaporation. Wood is defined industrially…

Piezoelectric energy harvesters (PEH) can be used in many areas of application, including human walking, railways, pavements and bridges. Piezoelectric energy harvesters are currently based on two types of external forces, namely pressure load and mechanical oscillation or vibration. A vibration energy harvesting (VEH) is a mechanical oscillation in a piezoelectric energy harvester that harvested…

During microwave heating of materials, the efficiency of microwave heating depends on the materials’ dielectric property, shapes and sizes of the material, materials’ position inside the applicator, operating frequency, level of input power, specific heat capacity, number and position of waveguide over the applicator, size and geometry of applicator etc. This paper examines the effects…
