Abstract: In this paper, an analytical solution is derived and used for studying the effect of off-neutral axis loading (point force excitation applied off the neutral axis of a rib) on ribbed-plate ...

Abstract: In this paper, a new method for optimal calibration of parallel kinematic machines (PKMs) is presented. The basis of the methodology is to exploit the least error sensitive regions in the ...

Abstract: Characteristics of modal sound radiation of finite cylindrical shells are studied using finite element and boundary element methods in this paper. In the low frequency range, modal radiation ...
