Abstract: Chaotic motion and chaos control of a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) are studied in this paper. The dynamics of chaotic PMSM with load vibration perturbation is presented and its complex dynamic characteristics ...

Abstract: Elastic buckling and second-order analyses are conducted using the matrix structural analysis approach for the in-plane and out-of-plane stability and adequate bracing design of a new type of Ferris wheel support system ...

Abstract: The conventional restraining ratio approach is not suitable for a straightforward design of the pre-tensioned cable-stayed buckling-restrained brace (PCS-BRB) because of its complicated buckling-restrained system. This ...

Abstract: The steel–concrete–steel (SCS) sandwich composite structures with orthogonal longitudinal and transverse (bidirectional) steel webs exhibit superiorities in strength, ductility, impact resistance, blast resistance, and ...

Abstract: This study presents a modified macromodel for calculating the anchorage slip of rebar under monotonic loading and its application to the fiber beam–column element model. The proposed macromodel reflects bond stress ...

Abstract: Steel plate reinforced concrete (SPRC) composite shear walls, which are composed of steel columns embedded in boundary elements and an embedded steel plate in the wall web, have been used in super-high-rise buildings. When ...

Abstract: Recently, a steel plate concrete composite technique has been developed for the shear strengthening of RC bridges. The steel plate shear-strengthened (SPSS) beam is composed of an old RC beam, new concrete, and steel web. ...
