Abstract: Impact force estimation is done indirectly through, e.g., strain measurements away from the contact point, because inserting a force transducer between the contacting objects changes the force. ...

Abstract: We consider numerical solutions of nonlinear multiterm fractional integrodifferential equations, where the order of the highest derivative is fractional and positive but is otherwise arbitrary. ...

Abstract: The variational asymptotic method (VAM) was used to analyze the deformation behavior of bidirectional functionally graded material (FGM) beams under transverse loading. Gradation was provided in the longitudinal as well ...
