Abstract: The design stress allowables for various loading conditions involving bending in Section III, Division 1 and Section VIII, Division 2 of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code are based on ...

Abstract: The central impact of a mass on a simply supported laminated composite plate under initial stress is investigated. The contact force and the dynamic response of the plate are obtained by ...

Abstract: The effect of high electric currents on the stability and dynamics of a circular rod is investigated. A uniform current distribution in the undeformed rod is assumed. The perturbed magnetic ...

Abstract: The induction of stress waves by transient magnetic fields has been examined analytically for a conducting half space and experimentally for a cylindrical rod. The analytical model predicts both ...
