Abstract: Nonlinear phenomena in the vibration of a slender, Euler-Bernoulli beam in compression and under periodic transverse loading is investigated. A feature of this system is the coexistence of ...

Abstract: A two-dimensional (2D) multiscale model to simulate the nanoscratching of a copper thin film is discussed in this paper. The multiscale model uses the classical molecular dynamics (MD) method to simulate the atomistic ...

Abstract: This paper presents the free vibration analysis of axially loaded rotating cross-ply laminated cylindrical shells with the consideration of the effects of centrifugal and Coriolis forces as well as the initial hoop tension ...

Abstract: Based on the generalized differential quadrature (GDQ) method, this paper presents, for the first instance, the free-vibration behavior of a rotating thin truncated open conical shell panel. The ...

Abstract: In conventional analyses of composite laminates, the assumption of perfect bonding of adjoining layers is well accepted, although this is an oversimplification of the reality. It is possible ...

Abstract: In this paper, we study the effects of initial fixed-charge density on the response behavior of pH-sensitive hydrogels subjected to coupled stimuli, namely, solution pH and externally applied ...
