RC beams under blast load: Reliability and sensitivity analysis

Submitted by Flavio Stochino on

The effects of blast loading on structures can be very dangerous: damages and failures are expected with serious threats to structural safety and human life. Materials stresses and strains are often pushed to the limit and the modelling of these phenomena can be very complex. In order to design blast-resistant structures it is very important to determine what are the key parameters of this problem.

Submitted by chelidze on

The nonlinear dynamics laboratory at the University of Rhode Island has an open position for a PhD student supported through research assistantship (including tuition remittance) starting Summer or Fall 2016. This position is supported by NSF grant. This research has a multidisciplinary nature incorporating material science, dynamical systems modeling, fatigue testing, and nonlinear time series analysis.

Nonlinear dynamics of rotating shaft with a breathing crack - CHINA SCHOLARSHIP COUNCIL PhD for 2017

Submitted by saberelarem on

Because of the increasing need of energy, the plants installed by electricity supply utilities throughout the world are becoming larger and more highly stressed. Thus, the risk of turbogenerator shaft cracking is increasing also. The development and propagation of a crack represents the most common and trivial beginning of integrity losses in engineering structures.

Nonlinear free and forced vibration analysis of a single-walled carbon nanotube using shell model

Submitted by Payam Soltani on

 By :Payam SOLTANI, J SABERIAN, R BAHRAMIAN, A FARSHIDIANFAR

In this Paper, the nonlinear free and force vibration of a single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) with simply supported ends is 

investigated based on von Karman’s geometric nonlinearity. The SWCNT described as an individual shell and the Donnell’s 

equations of cylindrical shells are used to obtain the governing equations. The Galerkin's procedure is used to discretized partial 

Nonlinear Physical Systems: Spectral Analysis, Stability and Bifurcations

Submitted by Oleg Kirillov on

Bringing together 18 chapters written by leading experts in dynamical systems, operator theory, partial differential equations, and solid- and fluid mechanics, this book presents state-of-the-art approaches to a wide spectrum of new and challenging stability problems.
