Accurate Backbone Curves for a Modified-Duffing Equation for Vibrations of Imperfect Structures With Viscous Damping
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper deals with the Runge-Kutta numerical solution of the modified-Duffing ordinary differential equation with viscous damping. Accurate backbone curves for the finite-amplitude vibrations of ...
Two-Mode Buckling of an Elastically Supported Plate and Its Relation to Catastrophe Theory
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Classical buckling and initial postbuckling of a geometrically imperfect infinite plate on a nonlinear elastic foundation under two independent applied compressive loads are analyzed. The plate ...
