Abstract This paper discusses the applicability of double busbar design to surface acoustic wave (SAW) devices employing low-cut lithium tantalate (LT) with multi-layered structure. This design offers good energy confinement, scattering loss suppression and transverse mode suppression for a wide frequency range. In addition, the effectiveness of manipulating the slowness curve shape for transverse mode suppression is demonstrated. First, three different lateral edge designs are applied to the layered SAW configuration on low-cut LT, and their performances are compared using the periodic 3-dimensional finite-element method powered by the hierarchical cascading technique. Then, the discussion is extended to influence of the SAW slowness shape to the transverse mode suppression.

Several studies evaluated the removable partial dentures by the finite element analysis, but none of them evaluated thermal stresses. The purpose of the study was to explore the influence of thermal oral changes induced by hot/cold liquids and food on the circumferential cast clasps of removable partial dentures. A 3-dimensional finite element method was used to explore the temperature distribution, thermal stress and the influence of thermal changes on stresses and displacements of circumferential clasps during functions. Thermal variations induce stresses in dental clasps, high temperatures having a more aggressive effect than lower one. Cold liquids and food induce high stresses in the retentive clasp arms while hot ones in the occlusal rests of the clasps and for the back action clasp also in the minor connector. The study suggests the importance of consFigureidering thermal variations for stress analyses of the cast clasps.

This paper presents finite element solutions for elastic-plastic J for circumferentially cracked pipes under combined mechanical and thermal loads in terms of the V/Vo factor used within a strain-based failure assessment diagram. In this study, 3-dimensional finite element analyses are conducted to calculate the V-factor under combined mechanical and thermal load. It is found that estimation of V/Vo is sensitive to the method used for its evaluation. For larger thermal stresses, currently proposed estimation methods are overly conservative.
