General nonlinear plate theory applied to a circular plate with large deflections
The general nonlinear first approximation thin plate tensor equations in undeformed coordinates valid for large strains, rotations and displacements are developed based on the single assumption of plane stress. These equations are then reduced to the exact tensor and physical component equations …

Sieve plate distillation dynamics
… the composition dynamics of a bench size sieve-plate distillation column. The column was 2-3/4 inches in diameter, 30 inches in length, and contained 10 sieve-plates spaced 2-1/4 inches apart. A benzene-toluene mixture was used as the feed to the column. The pulse testing method for obtaining …

Oblique Seafloor Spreading, the Malpelo Plate Hypothesis, and Cocos-Nazca-Pacific Plate Motion Circuit
… spreading centers of the Cocos-Nazca plate boundary between 91°W and 94°W (α≈9°), and superfast spreading centers of the East Pacific Rise at the Nazca-Pacific plate boundary between 29°S and 32°S (α≈10°) and perhaps between ≈16°S and ≈22°S (α≈4°). Thus, oblique spreading occurs across …

Robust Number Plate Detection Algorithms
Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) is an important Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) technology, which distinguishes each vehicle as unique by recognising the characters in their number plates via image analysis and pattern recognition techniques. In an ANPR system, the most crucial …

Nonlinear Control of Plate Vibrations
… vibration absorber to control the vibrations of plates is investigated. The absorber is based on the saturation phenomenon associated with dynamical systems with quadratic nonlinearities and a two-to-one internal resonance. The technique is implemented by coupling a second-order controller with …

The relationship between plate curvature and elastic plate thickness : a study of the Peru-Chile Trench
The age of the Nazca plate where it enters the Peru and northern Chile trenches varies from 30 Ma in the north to 45 Ma in the south as its dip beneath the South American continent steepens from 13° to 30°. If the elastic thickness Te of oceanic lithosphere depends only on its age, and therefore …

Free Elastic Plate Impact into Water
… 3, the problems of inclined rigid and elastic plates, impacting the fluid vertically, are solved. The elastic plate deflection is governed by Euler’s beam equation, subject to free-free boundary conditions. In chapter 4 and 5, impact problems of rigid and elastic plates and blunt bodies with …

Dynamic processes at submarine plate boundaries
The theory of plate tectonics provides a simplified yet powerful framework to describe the motion of lithospheric plates and the deformation that takes place at their boundaries. Although plate boundaries represent a small fraction of the earth’s surface, the localisation of stresses, resulting …

Projectile penetration of thin aluminium plate
The study of thin plate penetration has long been hampered by the lack of experimental data and that which has been reported is concerned mainly with displacement time records of the projectile and target responses to impact. In the present study two new techniques have been developed to monitor: …
