Abstract: The application of quadratic programming methods to the computation of balance weights for rotating shafts is demonstrated. The use of the quadratic programming technique makes possible the ...

Abstract: A comprehensive theory is presented for the dynamic response of continuous structural members with viscous damping using a modal analysis. The theoretical development provides a concise set of ...

Abstract: In this paper a comprehensive theory is formulated for the dynamic response of structural members with a constitutive relation in the form of a hereditary integral. A modal approach is taken ...
