Abstract: In this paper, the analytic solution for simulating the thermal stress field in a bituminous pavement is put forward based on a two-dimensional thermoviscoelastic layered system. The numerical ...

Abstract: This paper reports a series of experimental studies on the vibration characteristics of circular cylindrical shells containing water under axial excitation. The conditions for the formation of ...

Abstract: Nonlinear viscoelasticity is important in a variety of studies in biomechanics. One of the subject areas is the necessity to characterize the dynamic properties of blood vessels. This study ...

Abstract: This paper deals with total system optimization for energy use in complex process systems based on the premise that the sub-systems or local schemes have been optimally designed. The problem, ...

Abstract: The behavior of nonlinear pulsatile flow of incompressible blood contained in an elastic tube is examined. The theory takes into account the nonlinear convective terms of the Navier-Stokes ...

Abstract: This paper presents results of an investigation on noise transmission through an aluminum panel clamped to a greenhouse vehicle model subject to random acoustics, random vibration, and turbulent ...

Abstract: High in situ stress is a typical geological characteristic of tunnel excavation in hydropower projects in Southwest China. First, the spectrum characteristics of the vibration induced by the blasting load and transient ...
