Abstract: An inequality is described which allows the evaluation of upper bounds to the displacement of an elastic/perfectly plastic structure subject to variable loading. Simple examples indicate that ...

Abstract: General bounds on the deformation of a structure in a state of creep are derived for an elastic/perfectly plastic/time-hardening creep material, and subject to an arbitrary history of loading. ...

Abstract: An analytical study has been herein presented to predict the stress distribution in thick-walled porous (permeable) cylinders subjected to internal and/or external pressures. The maximum induced ...

Abstract: Although thick walled cylinders subjected to both pressure difference and internal heat flow can be found in many engineering applications, optimizing for maximum material utilization is still ...

Abstract: The once-through cooling potential of the Middle and Lower Mississippi River has been computed for the seven-day, ten-year low flow by the steady-state Iowa Thermal Regime Model. Longitudinal ...

Abstract: A simple numerical procedure is developed for determining the whirl velocity as a function of the rotational velocity for flexible multimass rotor systems that are difficult to handle by ...

Abstract: The internal structure of a normal shock wave in a perfect gas heavily laden with particles having a distribution of sizes is machine computed by numerical integration. The results of a ...
