Abstract: The complex modes of an end-damped cantilevered beam are studied as an experimental example of a nonmodally damped continuous system. An eddy-current damper is applied, for its noncontact and linear properties, to the end ...

Abstract: This work represents an investigation of the complex modes of continuous vibration systems with nonmodal damping. As an example, a cantilevered beam with damping at the free end is studied. Assumed modes are applied to ...

Abstract: Semianalytical or analytical models for calculating active and passive earth pressure coefficients for undrained soil–wall systems subjected to head rotation are rare. To fill this gap, this study proposes a semianalytical ...
