    Chargino contributions to the CP asymmetry in B ->phi K-S decay

    No full text
    We perform a model independent analysis of the chargino contributions to the CP asymmetry in the B-->phiK(S) process. We use the mass insertion approximation method generalized by including the possibility of a light right stop. We find that the dominant effect is given by the contributions of the mass insertions (delta(LL)(u))(32) and (delta(RL)(u))(32) to the Wilson coefficient of the chromomagnetic operator. By considering both these contributions simultaneously, the CP asymmetry in the B-->phiK(S) process is significantly reduced, and negative values, which are within the 1sigma experimental range and satisfy the b-->sgamma constraints, can be obtained

    In the present investigation, the buckling behavior of Euler-Bernoulli nanobeam, which is placed in an electro-magnetic field, is investigated in the framework of Eringen’s nonlocal theory. Critical buckling load for all the classical boundary conditions such as “Pined-Pined (P-P), Clamped-Pined (C-P), Clamped-Clamped (C-C), and Clamped-Free (C-F)" are obtained using shifted Chebyshev polynomials-based Rayleigh-Ritz method. The main advantage of the shifted Chebyshev polynomials is that it does not make the system ill-conditioning with the higher number of terms in the approximation due to the orthogonality of the functions. Validation and convergence studies of the model have been carried out for different cases. Also, a closed-form solution has been obtained for the “Pined-Pined (P-P)" boundary condition using Navier’s technique, and the numerical results obtained for the “Pined-Pined (P-P)" boundary condition are validated with a closed-form solution. Further, the effects of various scaling parameters on the critical buckling load have been explored, and new results are presented as Figures and Tables. Finally, buckling mode shapes are also plotted to show the sensitiveness of the critical buckling load

    Dynamical behavior of nanobeam embedded in constant, linear, parabolic, and sinusoidal types of Winkler elastic foundation using first-Order nonlocal strain gradient model

    In this research, the differential quadrature method is employed to investigate the nonlocal vibration of nanobeam resting on various types of Winkler elastic foundations such as constant, linear, parabolic, and sinusoidal types. The nanobeam is modeled with Winkler elastic foundation considering the elastic coefficient varying along the axis of the nanobeam. Within the framework of Euler-Bernoulli beam theory, first order strain gradient model is incorporated to compute the frequency parameters for Hinged-Hinged (H-H) and Clamped-Hinged (C-H) boundary conditions. A convergence study is also performed to demonstrate the efficiency, adequacy, and reliability of the method. Further, the results are compared with available data of previously published research in special cases showing robust agreement. Likewise, the effects of the nonlocal parameter, strain gradient parameter, non-uniform parameters, and Winkler modulus parameter on the frequency parameters are studied comprehensively

    Vibration characteristics of nanobeam with exponentially varying flexural rigidity resting on linearly varying elastic foundation using differential quadrature method

    No full text
    The target of the present research is to analyze the free vibration of non-uniform nanobeam resting on variable Winkler elastic foundation using the differential quadrature method. Non-uniformity in nanobeam is taken along the flexural rigidity, and the nanobeam is modeled with linearly varying Winkler elastic foundation. Eringen's nonlocal theory is employed in Euler-Bernoulli beam theory for different scaling parameters concerning the boundary conditions are explored. In order to illustrate the efficiency and accuracy of the method, the convergence study is carried out, and the obtained results are validated with known results in particular cases showing excellent agreement. Further, the sensitivity analysis of frequency parameters is carried out to examine the response of various scaling parameters

    Stability analysis of single-walled carbon nanotubes embedded in winkler foundation placed in a thermal environment considering the surface effect using a new refined beam theory

    No full text
    This article is devoted to investigate the stability of different types of Single Walled Carbon Nanotubes (SWCNTs) such as zigzag, chiral, and armchair types which are rested in Winkler elastic foundations exposing to both the low and high temperature environments. Also, the Surface effects which include surface energy and surface residual stresses, are taken into consideration in this study. It may be noted that the surface energy aids in the increase of the flexural rigidity whereas the surface residual stresses act as distributed transverse load. Further, the proposed model is developed by considering a novel refined beam theory namely one variable first order shear deformation beam theory along with the Hamilton’s principle. Navier’s method has been implemented to find out the critical buckling loads for Hinged-Hinged (H-H) boundary condition for zigzag, chiral, and armchair types of SWCNTs. A parametric study is also conducted to report the influence of various scaling parameters like small scale parameters, change in temperature, Winkler stiffness, and length to diameter ratio on critical buckling loads. Also, the present model is validated by comparing the results with other published work

    Effects of surface energy and surface residual stresses on vibro-thermal analysis of chiral, zigzag, and armchair types of SWCNTs using refined beam theory

    No full text
    In this article, vibration characteristics of three different types of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes (SWCNTs) such as armchair, chiral, and zigzag carbon nanotubes have been investigated considering the effects of surface energy and surface residual stresses. The nanotubes are embedded in the elastic substrate of the Winkler type and are also exposed to low and high-temperature environments. A new refined beam theory namely, one-variable shear deformation beam theory has been combined with Hamilton’s principle to develop the governing equations of the proposed model. The size-dependent behavior of the SWCNTs is addressed by Eringen’s nonlocal elasticity theory whereas the model is investigated analytically by employing Navier’s technique. Also, a parametric study has been conducted to analyze the effects of various scaling parameters such as small scale parameter, temperature change, thermal environments, Winkler modulus, and length of the beam. The results are also validated with previously published articles in special cases witnessing robust agreement

    A novel fractional nonlocal model and its application in buckling analysis of Euler-Bernoulli nanobeam

    No full text
    The present study aims to analyze the buckling behavior of Euler- Bernoulli nanobeam in conjunction with a novel fractional nonlocal model namely conformable fractional nonlocal model. Fractional models are getting more popular among the researchers because of its applicability and fixability to handle many complex physical phenomena which are not possible to model with integer operators. Also, the main advantage of fractional models over integer model is its applicability to handle both the integer and noninteger operators which makes it much more flexible in term of real-world application. In this regards, the nonlocal constitutive relation is developed in conjunction with conformable fractional derivatives and fractional strain energy to analyze the buckling behavior of Euler-Bernoulli Nanobeam. In this study, the Simply Supported-Simply Supported (SS), Clamped-Simply Supported, and Clamped-Clamped boundary conditions are taken into the investigation with the help of the Differential Quadrature Method (DQM). Critical buckling load parameters are computed for the SS, CS, and CC boundary conditions from generalized eigenvalue problem. Graphical, as well as tabular results, are calculated by using MATLAB programmes and effects of various parameters such as fractional parameter, nonlocal parameter, aspect ratio on critical buckling load parameters extensively studied
