Abstract: Some considerations on elastomer mount design in vibration isolation when both the machine and foundation have many resonances are presented, and possibilities for improvement on the mount ...

Abstract: High-speed trains running over sea-crossing railway bridges can be subjected to earthquake action in deepwater. In analyzing hydrodynamic-induced response on train–bridge interactions, the effect of earthquake-induced ...

Abstract: The paper examines the elastic lateral buckling of simply supported monosymmetric I‐beams under transverse loads. Solutions are obtained in terms of the easily evaluated degree of beam monosymmetry parameter, ρ, and the ...

Abstract: The paper concerns the elastic out‐of‐plane buckling of monosymmetric beam‐columns/tie‐beams under uniform moment or eccentric axial loads. A new set of parameters is introduced to describe the buckling behavior of such ...

Abstract: This paper shows that the closed form expression for the elastic out‐of‐plane buckling of doubly symmetric beam‐columns under uniform moment can be expressed in form similar to that of beams by introducing a beam‐column parameter,

Abstract: Precision machining operations necessitate highly accurate, rigid, and stable machine-tool structures. In response to this need, parallel architecture machines, based on the concepts of the Stewart ...

Abstract: Due to high demand for the safe operation of structures, structural members with the potential to shift their natural frequencies/specific-stiffness to satisfy design requirements or avoid the occurrence of dynamical ...

Abstract: Formulas of fixed-end moments and thrusts for a curved member of constant section subjected to a uniformly distributed in-plane load are presented. Expressions are derived for noncircular curved beams of cycloidal, catenary ...

Abstract: The stiffness coefficient matrix for a curved member of constant cross section considering the effect of flexural deformation is presented. This matrix relates the member-end rotations, vertical deflections, and horizontal ...
