Influence of various parameters in the seismic soil-structure interaction response of a nuclear power plant
(Elsevier, 2020-08-15)
This paper presents a numerical study of the influence of various parameters on the seismic response of the CAREM-25 nuclear power plant (NPP) located in Argentina. The influence of soil stiffness, structure-soilstructure ...
Sensitivity of the thermomechanical response of elastic structures to microstructural changes
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2015-07)
This paper is focused on the analysis of the sensitivity of the thermomechanical response of a macroscopic elastic body to changes that occur at the microstructure. This problem is a key issue in material design. The ...
A simulation method for determining the optical response of highly complex photonic structures of biological origin
(Cornell University, 2013-01)
We present a method based on a time domain simulation of wave propagation that allows studying the optical response of a broad range of dielectric photonic structures. This method is particularly suitable for dealing with ...
Rayleigh method adapted for the study of the optical response of natural photonic structures
(Springer, 2021-09-23)
To study the electromagnetic response of natural structures that exhibit interesting optical properties, we developed a computational tool to solve the problem of electromagnetic scattering by a rough interface between two ...
Ab initio study of the role of defects on the magnetic response and the structural, electronic and hyperfine properties of ZnFe2O4
(Elsevier Science SA, 2019-02-15)
In this work the effects of defects (oxygen vacancies, cationic inversion) on the structural, electronic and the magnetic response of the spinel ZnFe2O4 (ZFO) are studied by using a density functional theory (DFT) based ...
Numerical simulations of the current channeling effect on MT responses due to shallow conductive structures
(Elsevier Science, 2003-12)
MT data obtained at an alluvial valley in Argentina showed a strong telluric current channeling along its axis. This effect was reflected in the MT curves as a very low response for the TM apparent resistivity for periods ...
The effectiveness of the gyroscopic effect for controlling structural vibrations
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2021-07)
It is well known that seismic and wind induced vibration is an important issue in structural performance. To mitigate the problem of structural vibrations, many methodologies have been proposed and implemented. In this ...
Breakdown of classical paradigms in relation to membrane structure and functions
(Elsevier Science, 2021-02)
Updates of the mosaic fluid membrane model implicitly sustain the paradigms that bilayers are closed systems conserving a state of fluidity and behaving as a dielectric slab. All of them are a consequence of disregarding ...
Stimuli-responsive materials for tissue engineering and drug delivery
(Molecular Diversity Preservation International, 2020-07)
Smart or stimuli-responsive materials are an emerging class of materials used for tissue engineering and drug delivery. A variety of stimuli (including temperature, pH, redox-state, light, and magnet fields) are being ...
Numerical analysis of the dynamic frequency responses of damaged micro-lattice core sandwich plates
(Professional Engineering Publishing Ltd, 2020-01)
In this work, a numerical analysis of the dynamic frequency responses of sandwich plates with micro-lattice core is presented. The finite element analysis is implemented in the commercial software Abaqus/Standard, calculating ...
