Abstract: In this paper, research on transverse vibrations of axially moving strings and their control is thoroughly reviewed. In the last few decades, there have been extensive studies on analysis and ...

Abstract: In this paper, an innovative interface fracture criterion is proposed based on the concept of configurational forces in material space. In this criterion, the crack-tip configurational forces as the driving force are ...

Abstract: Steady-state periodical response is investigated for planar vibration of axially moving viscoelastic beams subjected external transverse loads. A model of the coupled planar vibration is established ...

Abstract: In this paper, the parametric stability of axially accelerating viscoelastic beams is revisited. The effects of the longitudinally varying tension due to the axial acceleration are highlighted, ...

Abstract: Axially moving materials can represent many engineering devices such as power transmission belts, elevator cables, plastic films, magnetic tapes, paper sheets, textile fibers, band saws, aerial ...

Abstract: Generally, it is difficult to get temperature shrinkage coefficient of semi-rigid base course material accurately using electric-resistance strain gauge in the lab. The recommendation is to use auto data acquisition system ...

Abstract: The roton-like dispersions support the “return flow” of acoustic waves; such phenomena were only observed in quantum systems. In this paper, we aim to investigate the nonlinear roton-like dispersion in a mechanical ...

Abstract: Rotating detonation turbine engine represents an innovative advancement in the state-of-art gas turbines. When a rotating detonation combustor is coupled with turbomachinery, the rotating detonation wave propagates upstream ...

Abstract: The vibrations and stability are investigated for an axially moving rectangular antisymmetric cross-ply composite plate supported on simple supports. The partial differential equations governing the ...

Abstract: The nonlinear response of a flexible structure, subjected to generally supported conditions with nonlinearities, is investigated for the first time. An analytical procedure is proposed first. Moreover, a simulation technique ...
