Higher-order gradient elasticity models applied to geometrically nonlinear discrete systems [PDF]
Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, 2015 The buckling and post-buckling behavior of a nonlinear discrete repetitive system, the discrete elastica, is studied herein. The nonlinearity essentially comes from the geometrical effect, whereas the constitutive law of each component is ...

Вестник Дагестанского государственного технического университета: Технические науки, 2022 Objective. The aim of the study is to build finite-difference models that can be used to test the bending vibrations of a rod under various fastening conditions, solving the problem in the frequency or time domain. Method.

Validation of the continuum orthotropic model of tensegrity beam-like and plate-like structures
Archives of Mechanics, 2023 In this paper, an attempt was made to develop the continuum orthotropic model of tensegrity structures. A basic four-module tensegrity grid built from modified Quadruplex modules was proposed. A procedure called the energy equivalency method was adopted.

Modelling of contact interaction of structures with the base under dynamic loading
Инженерно-строительный журнал, 2019 Constructively nonlinear problems with unilateral constraints are frequent in the calculation of various structures. At the same time, certain difficulties cause problems with the contact friction, as well as with the dynamic action of the load.

Non‐linear analysis of suspension bridges with flexible and rigid cables
Journal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2010 One of the main problems related to the design of suspension bridges is stabilisation of their initial form. The tendency of suspension bridges to deform is generally determined by the kinematical displacements of the suspension cable caused by ...
