Abstract: Elastomeric isolation bearings exhibit complex coupled horizontal-vertical behavior. Most existing macroscopic models simulate the quasistatic test results well but have deficiencies in simulating the dynamic behavior of ...

Abstract: Damping effects are crucial for accurately simulating the dynamic behavior of elastomeric bearings under multiaxial excitations. Most existing macroscopic models only incorporate the horizontal and vertical damping effects ...

Abstract: Porous material–inspired noise reduction has been proved to be an effective method to reduce airfoil self-noise during the last few decades. However, the used porous materials in previous studies generally have homogenous ...

Abstract: Concrete linings of field canals are seriously damaged by frost heave in the north of China. However, the mechanism causing lining damage is too complex to be described quantitatively, and present models are insufficient ...
