Reformulation for the Solution of the Dynamic Response of CoAxial Segmented Beams
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Stepped beams constitute an important class of engineering structures whose vibration response has been widely studied. Many of the existing methods for studying stepped beams manifest serious numerical difficulties as the ...
A Robust Approach to Quantification of Margin and Uncertainty
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A systematic approach to defining margin in a manner that incorporates statistical information and accommodates data uncertainty but does not require assumptions about specific forms of the tails of distributions is ...
Application of Viscous and Iwan Modal Damping Models to Experimental Measurements From Bolted Structures
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Measurements are presented from a twobeam structure with several bolted interfaces in order to characterize the nonlinear damping introduced by the joints. The measurements (all at force levels below macroslip) reveal that ...
