1. Improved finite element of a transversely cracked straight beam with an additional degree of freedom
Abstract A new finite element with an additional degree of freedom at the crack location is derived for static bending analysis of a transversely cracked uniform slender beam. In the simplified computational model, which is based on Euler-Bernoulli's theory of small displacements, the crack is represented by a linear rotational spring connecting two elastic

2. Modeling and Experimental Validation of Two Adjacent Portal Frame Structures Subjected to Vibro-impact
Abstract In many engineering applications, there are systems that exhibit a series of collisions in a certain amount of time, for example the impact of floating ice in ships and the rubbing between stationary and rotary parts in turbomachinery. In many of these situations, it is of vital importance to know how the impacts affect the overall system behavior f

3. Free and forced vibration analysis of multiple cracked FGM multi span continuous beams using dynamic stiffness method
Abstract In the present paper, the free and forced vibration of multiple cracked multi span continuous beams made of functionally graded material (FGM) is investigated by the dynamic stiffness method. First, there are constructed dynamic stiffness matrix and nodal load vector of multiple cracked FGM beam element using Timoshenko beam theory and massless doub

4. Optimal design of beam-column connections of plane steel frames using the component method
Abstract This paper presents a methodology for optimization of beam-column connections of plane steel frames. The objective is to obtain beam- column connections mechanically more efficient and with minimum cost by determination of the optimal dimensions for the components of the connection; satisfying mechanical constraints associated with the bending momen

5. A Comparative Study of the Heat Input During Laser Welding of Aeronautical Aluminum Alloy AA6013-T4
ABSTRACT The heat input is the amount of energy supplied per unit length of the welded workpiece. In this study, the effect of two different heat inputs in laser beam welding of a high strength aluminum alloy AA6013-T4 was evaluated from macrostructural and microstructural points of view. The experiments were performed using a continuous wave 2 kW Yb-fiber l

6. Effects of Birefringence on the Electromagnetic Guidance of Structures Produced by Femtosecond Laser
Abstract Analysis of the state of polarization of light guided by structures recorded in lithium niobate and lithium fluoride crystals indicates that the recording method is determinant in the formation of birefringent structures. Each structure was written with a single and continuous translation of the crystal transversally to the laser beam. Birefringence

7. Nonlinear Vibration Analysis of Euler-Bernoulli Beams by Using Continuous Galerkin-Petrov Time-Discretization Method
Abstract In this paper, we present a new numerical method for nonlinear vibrational analysis of Euler-Bernoulli beams. Our approach is based on the continuous Galerkin-Petrov time discretization method. The Euler-Bernoulli beam equation which governs its vibrations is transformed into set of ordinary differential equations and the presented method is employe

8. Three-Dimensional Rail-Bridge Coupling Element of Unequal Lengths for Analyzing Train-Track-Bridge Interaction System
Abstract A three-dimensional rail-bridge coupling element of unequal lengths in which the length of the rail element is shorter than that of the bridge element is presented in this paper to investigate the spatial dynamic responses of a train-track-bridge interaction system. Formulation of stiffness and damping matrices for the fastener, ballast, and bearing

9. Seismic performance of ductility classes medium RC beam-column connections with continuous rectangular spiral transverse reinforcements
The seismic performance of RC columns can considerably be improved through the use of continuous spiral reinforcement in terms of ductility and energy dissipation capacity. Since the beam-column connections were subjected to brittle failure after earthquakes, the simultaneous application of this method in both beams and columns could greatly improve the seis

10. Seismic Performance of Cable-sliding Modular Expansion Joints Subject to Near-fault Ground Motion
AbstractAccording to the research fruits of the diverse damages of bridge in the past, bearings' invalidation is the main reason of the damage of isolated bridges and causes oversized relative displacements between pier and girder. Eventually, it may lead to severe collision of superstructure. It is extremely dangerous when near-fault motion occurs, because

11. Damage identification from uniform load surface using continuous and stationary wavelet transforms
Derived from flexibility matrix, Uniform Load Surface (ULS) is used to identify damages in beam-type structures. This method is beneficial in terms of more participating the lower order modes and having less prone to noise and irregularities in the measured data in comparison with the original flexibility matrix technique. Therefore, these characteristics ma

12. Nonlinear mathematical modeling of vibrating motion of nanomechanical cantilever active probe
Nonlinear vibration response of nanomechanical cantilever (NMC) active probes in atomic force microscope (AFM) application has been studied in the amplitude mode. Piezoelectric layer is placed piecewise and as an actuator on NMC. Continuous beam model has been chosen for analysis with regard to the geometric discontinuities of piezoelectric layer attachment
