Abstract: This paper presents the random vibration analysis of a simply supported cylindrical shell under a ring load which is uniform around the circumference. The time history of the excitation is ...

Abstract: An analytical procedure employing the general theory of shells of revolution and finite element method is presented to examine the stress patterns along the convolution of the pipeline expansion ...

Abstract: The progress made in the decade 1973–1983 in the area of vibration of jet engine blades is surveyed. The purpose of the survey is to provide a general review of recent progress and the ...

Abstract: A minimal mathematical model describing mass transport in the connecting cilium (CC) of a photoreceptor cell in response to a suddenly increased protein concentration at the base of the CC is ...

Abstract: The Navy’s air cushion landing craft LC JEFF(B) is one of two full-scale advanced development craft that was developed and is being tested under the Amphibious Assault Landing Craft (AALC) ...

Abstract: The article by Tanaka describes a rapid and accurate method for the determination of contact pressure in the Hertz elliptical contact problem, without the need to use tables or graphs such ...

Abstract: The analysis of parallel damped dynamic vibration absorbers is presented. The system considered is essentially a modification of the conventional damped vibration absorber and consists of adding, ...

Abstract: Haptic feedback is known to improve teleoperation task performance for a number of tasks, and one important question is which haptic cues are the most important for each specific task. This ...

Abstract: Theoretical analysis of a gyroscopic system is made with a view to determine its feasibility as a synchronous vibration absorber. It is shown that antiresonance in two directions orthogonal to ...
