Abstract: We review some of our recent studies on the effective elastic constants of composites where the occluded phase is spherical or spheroidal (oblate or prolate). From constituent properties and ...

Abstract: Modes of unrestrained free vibration of rectangular parallelepipeds are excited by impact and combined with solutions to the weak form of the equations of motion corresponding to the 3D equations of elasticity and periodic ...

Abstract: The widespread adoption of blade integrated disks (blisks) made of titanium demands tailored regeneration processes to increase sustainability and economic efficiency. High standards regarding geometrical accuracy and ...

Abstract: The effects of skew angle, cross-frame spacing, cross-frame layout, cross-frame stiffness, and load placement on the potential for distortion-induced fatigue damage in steel bridges was investigated by performing a suite ...
