Abstract: A theoretical analysis of a bonded single lap joint is presented. The adherends are considered anisotropic whereas the cement is treated as an isotropic material. The analysis is confined to ...

Abstract: Two examples from structural theory are invoked to show that “normal modes” of vibration could have a simple interpretation in nonlinear distributed parameter systems.

Abstract: The natural frequencies for the transverse vibration of grillages with various types of boundary conditions are studied, taking into account the distributed mass of the beams. Finite-difference ...
