Abstract: An analytical approach for treating problems involving oscillatory heat source is presented. The transient temperature profile involving circular, rectangular, and parabolic heat sources undergoing ...

Abstract: A method for treating the thermomechanical interaction of bodies that undergo relative oscillatory motion is developed. The approach utilizes a combination of the transfer matrix and the finite ...

Abstract: A three-dimensional computational thermal contact model is developed. The approach utilizes a combination of the transfer matrix and finite element methods. The frictional heat generated at the ...

Abstract: The recent development of the seismic pounding effect between adjacent bridge decks and falling-off measures were introduced in this paper. Firstly, the computing theories and analytical methods of contact-pounding between ...

Abstract: This paper develops a horizontal displacement estimation framework for wind-excited high-rise buildings based on limited measurements of accelerations and strains and applies it to reconstruct the displacement responses ...
