Abstract: When a dynamic point load is applied laterally to a plate, the deflection gradually spreads over time until the entire plate surface is affected. The determination of early stages of response ...

Abstract: On the basis of known geometry, loads, and materials but with incomplete design details, the structure of a certain tall building was recreated. The first phase was a series of hand calculations to initially estimate the ...

Abstract: Four classical support conditions are investigated for beams with distributed loading, which has a temporal form of rectangular pulse. First, a simple calculation is presented, using algebraic equations of momentum and ...
