Prediction of Douglas-Fir Sawn Timber Strength based on X-ray Computed Tomography and FEA

Boris Sandor1, Andreas Weidenhiller1
1Holzforschung Austria

Due to climate change impacts and the worsening growth conditions of Norway spruce (Picea abies) the species composition of European forests is being diversified, incorporating more hardwoods as well as drought-resistant softwood species, such as Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii). As a ... Read More

Polarizability of a Spherical Particle in an Anisotropic Medium

Gaurav Bansode1, Karthik Sasihithlu1
1Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, Powai, India 400076

As part of our primary research focus, we explore the phenomenon of non-radiative resonance energy transfer (RET) between a pair of dipoles positioned within a hyperbolic metamaterial (HMM). Our investigation reveals that the presence of an HMM can fundamentally alter these non-radiative ... Read More

Add-In ‘GoalSeeker’ – Advanced Parameter Optimization in Single and Combined Models

D. Kähler1
1Fraunhofer Institute for Silicon Technology ISIT

Simulations usually depend on a variety of parameters like geometric dimensions, process parameters, loads, or material properties. Typically, some of these parameters are fixed whereas others may be varied to obtain a special result. In many cases a simple sweep can be used to examine ... Read More
