Cracks of irrigation channel’s service roads are becoming a significant feature in Al-Ghab region. All information indicates that lateral spreading of stresses in slope vicinity induced cracks in the side parts of roads. These cracks resulted from la
teral displacements, which could dominate total displacements. This
paper presents a geotechnical evaluation of the possibility to mitigate this phenomena by using geogrid soil reinforcement. Finite elements numerical model analysis is performed to calculate total, horizontal and vertical displacements at road side near channel’s slope. Numerical models include different cases of
un-reinforced soil and geogrid reinforced soils at different locations. Locations of geogrid were chosen carefully to attain the best effectiveness. Beneficial factor and coefficient of efficiency were determined for reinforced road.
This study aims to investigate the effect of the alveolar ridge shape in
the distribution of stress at the lower removable partial dentures
supported by implants using a finite element method, with four models
for a half mandible are designed with
a free end saddle using an
ANSYS program and Canine was abutment, where the remaining ridge
is representing the four alveolar ridge shapes (horizontal and distal
descending and concave and distal ascending), two removable partial
dentures were designed for each model one supported by tooth and
fibromucosa and another one supported by tooth and implant, it has been
applied a load of 50 Newton on all models and has been studied stress
equivalent for each model.
In this paper, we introduce an algorithm to solve the
Advection equation by finite element method. In this method, we
have chosen Three pattern of cubic B-Spline to approximate the
nonlinear solution to convert the nonlinear PDE into a system of
ODE, Then we solved this system equation by SSP-RK54 method,
And we made a program implementing this algorithm and we
checked the program using some examples, which have exact
solutions, then we evaluate our results. As a conclusion we found
that this method gives accurate results for advection equation.
Stability of elements require determination of their dimension, such that
the resulting displacement under static or thermal loads are acceptable.
Those elements have to resist the applied loads so that the structure or any
element does not loss c
onstancy. The most important criteria for stability
is represented via element curvature under the influence of load, that load
is of any type or in any position. Therefor this paper presents derivation
of a theoretical equation to calculate the deflection generated from
heating variation between the top and bottom surface of simple steel
beam, by means of heating transfer expression.
