Theoretical backgrounds of durability analysis by normalized equivalent stress functionals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Generalized durability diagrams and their properties are considered for a material under a multiaxial loading given by an arbitrary function of time. Material strength and durability under such loading are described in terms of durability, safety factor ...

Numerical Approach to Optimize the Dynamic Behaviour of Structures Considering Structural Durability

open access: yesVibration, 2023
In the design of lightweight structures, both the dynamics and durability must be taken into account. In this paper, a methodology for the combined optimization of structural dynamics, lightweight design, and lifetime with discrete vibration engineering ...

Monopoly Distortions in Durability and Multi-Dimensional Quality [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
I show that Swan’s (1970) independence result requires a multiplicative interaction between durability and all other quality attributes. Because there is no compelling argument for a multiplicativity in quality, monopolists tend to distort durability ...

Measures of Durability of Resistance [PDF]

open access: yesPhytopathology®, 2003
Conventional models for the durability of resistant cultivars focus on the dynamics of the frequency of resistance genes. This leads to a definition of the durability of resistance as the time from introduction of the cultivar to the time when the frequency of the virulence gene reaches a preset threshold.

Output-Only Damage Detection of Shear Building Structures Using an Autoregressive Model-Enhanced Optimal Subpattern Assignment Metric

open access: yesSensors, 2020
This paper proposes a novel output-only structural damage indicator by incorporating the pole-based optimal subpattern assignment distance with autoregressive models to localize and relatively assess the severity of damages for sheared structures ...
