Applications of the discrete green's function in the finite-difference time-domain method
PublicationIn this paper, applications of the discrete Green's function (DGF) in the three-dimensional (3-D) finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method are presented. The FDTD method on disjoint domains was developed employing DGF to couple the subdomains as well as to compute the electromagnetic field outside these subdomains. Hence, source and scatterer are simulated in separate subdomains and updating of vacuum cells, being of little...

Development of a Friction Welding System for CNC Lathes
PublicationDedicated friction welding machines are sturdy in order to handle large process forces but expensive. Thus, it is proposed to equip two axis CNC lathes with an add-on direct drive friction welding system as an affordable solution for occasional use. The first part to be welded is clamped on the lathe chuck, whilst the second part is clamped on a dedicated chuck on the tailstock. The latter is programmed to follow three phases:...

Linear viscoelastic modelling of damage-involved structural pounding during earthquakes
PublicationDamage-involved structural pounding during earthquakes has been recently intensively studied using different impact force models. The results of the previous studies indicate that the linear viscoelastic model is relatively simple yet accurate in modelling pounding-involved behaviour of structures during earthquakes. The only shortcoming of the model is a negative value of the pounding force occurring just before separation, which...

Experimental study on ice drift under the wind effect
PublicationThis study aims at wind and free ice drift interaction, which is an important aspect in sea ice, and low flow inland waters. Ice drift is caused by dynamic balance of water drag, gravitational acceleration, resistance force and wind drag. To have a clear point of view on wind to ice interaction, the external forces for this experimental study were limited to wind effect. The experiments were conducted in the Institute of Hydro-Engineering...

Seismic response and performance prediction of steel buckling-restrained braced frames using machine-learning methods
PublicationNowadays, Buckling-Restrained Brace Frames (BRBFs) have been used as lateral force-resisting systems for low-, to mid-rise buildings. Residual Interstory Drift (RID) of BRBFs plays a key role in deciding to retrofit buildings after seismic excitation; however, existing formulas have limitations and cannot effectively help civil engineers, e.g., FEMA P-58, which is a conservative estimation method. Therefore, there is a need to...

Charge density wave, enhanced mobility, and large nonsaturating magnetoresistance across the magnetic states of HoNiC2 and ErNiC2
PublicationWe report on magnetotransport and thermoelectric properties of two ternary carbides HoNiC2 and ErNiC2 hosting both charge density wave and long-range magnetic order. In the charge density wave state, both compounds show relatively large magnetoresistance MR ≈ 150% in HoNiC2 and ≈ 70%in ErNiC2 at a magnetic field of 9 T and temperature as low as 2 K. This positive field-linear magnetoresistance shows no signatures of saturation....

FDTD Simulations on Disjoint Domains with the Use of Discrete Green's Function Diakoptics
PublicationA discrete Green's function (DGF) approach to couple disjoint domains in the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) grid is developed. In this method, total-field/scattered-field (TFSF) FDTD domains are associated with simulated objects whereas the interaction between them is modeled with the use of the DGF propagator. Hence, source and scatterer are simulated in separate domains and updating of vacuum cells, being of little interest,...
