1. Aerodynamic effects on a high slenderness concrete chimney
Resumo Este trabalho apresenta os resultados da determinação teórico-experimental do comportamento aerodinâmico de uma chaminé esbelta de concreto armado, com 150m de altura e esbeltez 30. Foram construídos dois modelos reduzidos: um rígido para medição das pressões e outro aeroelástico, reproduzindo as principais características dinâmicas da es

2. Field performance of hermaphrodite papaya plants obtained through molecular selection and micropropagation
Abstract Most commercial papaya varieties segregate hermaphrodite and female plants. Growers normally select hermaphrodite plants in the field, due to market preferences. This requires planting multiple plants per site and later thinning of the females, distinguished by flower bud inspection. Micropropagation or the use of molecular markers are two possibili

3. Morfometría de copa en Prosopis alba Griseb
Abstract The morphometric relations allow describing and characterizing the dimensions of trees, stands without prior knowledge of the age and have utility in silvicultural management, forest monitoring and productivity, especially when there is a premise of making a sustainable use of forests. The objectives of the present study were to determine the morpho

4. A GENERALIZED ABOVEGROUND BIOMASS MODEL FOR JUVENILE INDIVIDUALS OF Rhododendron arboreum (SM.) IN NEPAL
ABSTRACT Carbon in the juvenile plants contribute significant share to the total carbon stock in forests. A precise estimate of aboveground biomass of the juvenile stages of trees is therefore very important. We developed a generalized allometric biomass model for the prediction of aboveground biomass of the juvenile individuals of Rhododendron arboreum (Sm.

5. Inelastic second-order analysis of steel columns under minor-axis bending
Abstract The inelastic second-order behavior of steel structural columns under minor-axis bending is presented in this article. To study this behavior, a nonlinear frame element formulation is adopted in which the steel's plasticity process is accompanied at the nodal points of each finite element through the refined plastic-hinge method (RPHM). A tangent mo

6. A Unified Approach to the Timoshenko Geometric Stiffness Matrix Considering Higher-Order Terms in the Strain Tensor
Abstract Nonlinear analyses using an updated Lagrangian formulation considering the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory have been developed with consistency in the literature, with different geometric matrices depending on the nonlinear displacement parts considered in the strain tensor. When performing this type of analysis using the Timoshenko beam theory, in gene

7. Free vibration analysis of nano-tubes consisted of functionally graded bi-semi-tubes by a two-steps perturbation method
Abstract Free vibration of a bimaterial circular nano-tube is investigated. The tube is formed by bonding together a Si3N4/SUS304 functionally graded upper semi tube and a ZrO2/Ti-6Al-4V functionally graded lower semi tube. The material properties of the tube are assumed to vary along the radius according to power law with the power index of upper semi tube

8. Numerical analysis of cold-formed double angles back-to-back under compression
Abstract Here-in, a numerical analysis based on the Finite Element Method (FEM) is proposed in order to investigate cold-formed steel back-to-back double angle structural behavior under compression. Considering non-linear analysis, an investigation was performed to analyze the influence of some aspects, such as the loading condition (concentric and eccentric

9. Free Vibration Analysis of Functionally Graded Nanocomposite Beams on Elastic Foundation Using a Mesh-Free Method
Abstract The use of Carbon Nanotubes as the reinforcing constituent for polymer matrix composites in place of conventional fibers has led to the emergence of a new generation of advanced composite materials. In this paper, the free vibration of functionally graded nanocomposite beams on elastic foundations are studied. Three different types of Carbon Nanotub

10. Elastoplastic Stability and Failure Analysis of FGM Plate with Temperature Dependent Material Properties under Thermomechanical Loading
Abstract The present paper explores the stability and failure response of elastoplastic Ni/Al2O3 functionally graded plate under thermomechanical load using non-linear finite element formulation based on first-order shear deformation theory and von-Karman’s nonlinear kinematics. The temperature dependent thermoelastic material properties of FGM plate are v

11. Time Domain Modeling and Simulation of Nonlinear Slender Viscoelastic Beams Associating Cosserat Theory and a Fractional Derivative Model
Abstract A broad class of engineering systems can be satisfactory modeled under the assumptions of small deformations and linear material properties. However, many mechanical systems used in modern applications, like structural elements typical of aerospace and petroleum industries, have been characterized by increased slenderness and high static and dynamic

12. Nonlinear Vibrations of Cantilever Timoshenko Beams: A Homotopy Analysis
Abstract This study analyzes the fourth-order nonlinear free vibration of a Timoshenko beam. We discretize the governing differential equation by Galerkin's procedure and then apply the homotopy analysis method (HAM) to the obtained ordinary differential equation of the generalized coordinate. We derive novel analytical solutions for the nonlinear natural fr
