RESEARCH ON THE ASEISMIC BEHAVIOR OF LONG-SPAN CABLE-STAYED BRIDGE WITH DAMPING EFFECT [PDF]
Civil Engineering Journal, 2016 The main beam of a cable-stayed bridge with a floating system may have a larger longitudinal displacement subject to earthquake effect. Thus, seismic control and isolation are crucial to bridge safety.

Dual simulations of fluid flow and seismic wave propagation in a fractured network : effects of pore pressure on seismic signature [PDF]
, 2006 Fluid flow in the Earth's crust plays an important role in a number of geological processes. In relatively tight rock formations such flow is usually controlled by open macrofractures, with significant implications for ground water flow and hydrocarbon ...

Optomechanical coupling between ultracold atoms and a membrane oscillator [PDF]
, 2014 In this thesis, I report on the realization of a hybrid optomechanical system in which ultracold atoms are coupled to a micromechanical membrane. The atoms are trapped in the intensity maxima of an optical standing wave formed by retroreflection of a ...

Adaptive Controller of the Major Functions for Controlling a Drive System with Elastic Couplings
Energies, 2018 In any drive system, there are always couplings between the motor and the load. Since the hardness of these couplings is finite, they have elastic properties, causing unwanted vibration and negatively affecting system quality.

Multiwave non-linear couplings in elastic structures [PDF]
International Journal of Solids and Structures, 2002 This short contribution considers the essentials of nonlinear wave properties in typical mechanical systems such as an infinite straight bar, a circular ring, and a flat plate. It is found that nonlinear resonance is experienced in all the systems exhibiting continuous and discrete spectra, respectively.
