Bezier Curves Method for Fourth-Order Integrodifferential Equations
The Bezier curves method is applied to solve both linear and nonlinear BVPs for fourth-order integrodifferential equations. Also, the presented method is developed for solving BVPs which arise from the problems in calculus of variation. These BVPs result

Topology, Orientation and Fiber Path Optimization for Layered Anisotropic Materials
ABSTRACT Topology optimization and additive manufacturing complement each other: the freedom offered by design optimization enables the creation of complex, highly efficient structures that are often feasible only with additive manufacturing. However, most structural optimization methods assume isotropic material properties, an assumption that ...

Capability and Limitations of a Tuned Mass Damper for a 15‐MW Semisubmersible Floating Wind Turbine
ABSTRACT Large floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) under coupled aerodynamic and hydrodynamic loading exhibit broadband low‐frequency response in addition to the platform‐pitch resonance. Tuned mass dampers (TMDs) have been studied for a range of applications, but their net benefit under fully coupled operational conditions has not been quantified.

Rocking and Rolling of Rigid Polygons Under Seismic Excitation
ABSTRACT We present an event driven analytical framework for rigid cyclic polygons subjected to horizontal ground excitation in which uplift, impact, and successive pivot switching are treated within a unified non‐smooth dynamical description. Rolling is defined as a sequence of energetically admissible transitions between neighbouring vertices tied to

ABSTRACT As a crucial puzzle piece of deep space exploration, exploring small bodies can provide significant scientific insights and valuable mineral resources. Unlike missions to the Moon and Mars, small‐body missions pose distinct technical challenges, including communication delays, weak gravity, and uncertain environments. This paper reviews a full

Carbon Taxation in a Second‐Best Setting: Impacts of Sectoral Differences on Optimal Rates
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the Ramsey‐optimal fiscal and environmental policy in an economy with two differentiated final‐goods sectors: brown (pollutive) and green (zero emissions). This analysis provides new insights into the interaction between distortionary taxes and carbon taxes in both the short run and long run.

ABSTRACT Predicting structural lifetime under complex loading remains a major challenge in computational mechanics, especially for high cycle fatigue in large scale systems such as aircraft, bridges, and wind turbines. This difficulty arises from the need to capture fatigue damage accumulation, crack initiation, crack growth across scales, and life ...

Phase Space of Rolling Solutions of the Tippe Top
Equations of motion of an axially symmetric sphere rolling and sliding on a plane are usually taken as model of the tippe top. We study these equations in the nonsliding regime both in the vector notation and in the Euler angle variables when they admit ...

Utilization of Euler-Lagrange Equations in Circuits with Memory Elements [PDF]
It is well known that the equation of motion of a system can be set up using the Lagrangian and the dissipation function, which describe the conservative and dissipative parts of the system.
