Abstract: Tuned liquid damper (TLD) containers are designed to provide their sloshing forces in opposite directions against the inertia loads of the vibrating structure and thus to reduce the vibration. The sloshing forces that ...

Abstract: This paper investigates isodamage criteria for framed PVB (polyvinyl butyral) laminated glass panels subjected to blast load. Isodamage criteria are presented in the form of pressure-impulse (P-I) diagrams, and a methodology ...

Abstract: The crack behaviors of yttrium-stabilized zirconia during laser drilling in air, vacuum, and water environments were investigated. Due to the high stress and low fracture toughness induced by tetragonal-monoclinic phase ...
