(R1496) Impact Of Electronic States Of Conical Shape Of Indium Arsenide/Gallium Arsenide Semiconductor Quantum Dots, Md. Fayz-Al-Asad, Md. Al-Rumman, Md. Nur Alam, Salma Parvin, Cemil Tunç

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

Semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) have unique atom-like properties. In this work, the electronic states of quantum dot grown on a GaAs substrate has been studied. The analytical expressions of electron wave function for cone-like quantum dot on the semiconductor surface has been obtained and the governing eigen value equation has been solved, thereby obtaining the dependence of ground state energy on radius and height of the cone-shaped -dots. In addition, the energy of eigenvalues is computed for various length and thickness of the wetting layer (WL). We discovered that the eigen functions and energies are nearly associated with the GaAs …


Generalized Problem Of Thermal Bending Analysis In The Cartesian Domain, V. S. Kulkarni, Vinayaki Parab Jun 2018

Generalized Problem Of Thermal Bending Analysis In The Cartesian Domain, V. S. Kulkarni, Vinayaki Parab

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

This is an attempt for mathematical formulation and general analytical solution of the most generalized thermal bending problem in the Cartesian domain. The problem has been formulated in the context of non-homogeneous transient heat equation subjected to Robin’s boundary conditions. The general solution of the generalized thermoelastic problem has been discussed for temperature change, displacements, thermal stresses, deflection, and deformation. The most important feature of this work is any special case of practical interest may be readily obtained by this most generalized mathematical formulation and its analytical solution. There are 729 such combinations of possible boundary conditions prescribed on parallelepiped …


Projected Surface Finite Elements For Elliptic Equations, Necibe Tuncer Jun 2013

Projected Surface Finite Elements For Elliptic Equations, Necibe Tuncer

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this article, we define a new finite element method for numerically approximating solutions of elliptic partial differential equations defined on “arbitrary” smooth surfaces S in RN+1. By “arbitrary” smooth surfaces, we mean surfaces that can be implicitly represented as level sets of smooth functions. The key idea is to first approximate the surface S by a polyhedral surface Sh, which is a union of planar triangles whose vertices lie on S; then to project Sh onto S. With this method, we can also approximate the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of th Laplace-Beltrami operator on these “arbitrary” surfaces.
