Abstract: By using the method of separation of variables, or more precisely, the method of searching for synchronous motions, conditions are derived under which a linear discrete viscously damped system ...

Abstract: Propagation of torsional waves in elastic homogeneous non-prismatic hollow shafts is investigated. Three different types of end conditions are considered: both ends fixed, both ends free, and one ...

Abstract: The exact solution for the steady-state motion of a dynamic vibration neutralizer with motion-limiting stops attached to a sinusoidally excited primary system is derived analytically, and its ...

Abstract: Grout piles are often used to reinforce the base soil against base heave when carrying out deep excavations in soft clay. However, there is still a lack of an adequate criterion to describe the shear strength of clay ...

Abstract: The transient response of a simply supported semi-infinite Timoshenko beam on an elastic foundation to a moving step load is determined. The response is found from summing the solutions to two ...
