Abstract: The research in this paper is the result of an experimental study regarding a new airfoil‐design concept, which is developed to produce greater lift coefficients over a much broader range of operational angles of attack, ...

Abstract: This paper deals with the analysis of prismatic and nonprismatic members of any arbitrary variation in moment of inertia, and where the material is permitted to be stressed well beyond its elastic limit, thus causing the ...

Abstract: The research here deals with the development of an analytical method for the computation of large deflections and rotations of members with varying stiffness along their length. The member may be statically determinate, ...

Abstract: The research in this paper consists of an analytical study of the computation of large deflections of uniform and variable stiffness members by using pseudolinear or nonlinear equivalent systems of constant stiffhess. By ...

Abstract: This paper deals with the static analysis of nonprismatic members of any arbitrary variation in its moment of inertia

Abstract: The research work in this paper consists of a rigorous closed form solution regarding the deflection of thin rectangular plates with variable thickness in one dimension. The rigorous closed form solution is given in the ...

Abstract: The research here deals with the dynamic analysis of variable stiffness members that are subjected to dynamic cyclic loadings. The dynamic analysis takes into consideration the restoring force behavior of such members by ...
