Real Geometrical Imperfection of Bow-String Arches—Measurement and Global Analysis
In order to analyse the buckling behaviour of existing bow-string arch bridges, it is necessary to deal with the imperfections that influence the global stability of their superstructures. Direct quantification of the material imperfections represents an

Most adverse geometrical imperfections of steel spherical shells
Steel, spherical shells subjected to an external pressure are exposed to the loss of stability and such a phenomenon determines the global resistance of such shells.

Transverse and vertical cracking behavior of railway rails due to geometrical imperfections and bending [PDF]
Rail flaws and unexpected failures occurred at a quick pace as a result of the rapid growth of high-speed and heavy-haul railroads. It is of the utmost importance to prevent a situation like this since any possible breakdown of a rail carries the ...

Analysis of load capacity of roof trusses with imperfections and the issue of equivalent load adoption [PDF]
The internal forces and stresses were analyzed and utilization of the design resistance in selected members of the roof structure with local and global geometrical imperfections was evaluated. Values of these imperfections were based on the information

On the method of calculation of buckling and post-buckling behavior of laminated shells with small arbitrary imperfections [PDF]
In the present paper the variant of computational methods of stability and initial post-buckling behavior of isotropic shells was generalized with respect to laminated composite shells. Using methods of the asymptotic analysis of the Timoshenko–Mindlin

Post-Buckling Behaviour of Steel Structures with Different Types of Imperfections
In this paper, the stability of steel members with a complex initial geometrical imperfection pattern are analysed. This issue is extremely important in the case of slender structures, characterised by multiple close critical loads and modal interactions,

Rationally-Based Structural Design of Welded Plate Panels
This study predicts the behavior of welded plate panels (unstiffened plates) with different geometrical properties (slenderness ratio and aspect ratio) in order to address a rational structural design procedure, as these parameters are of great ...

Creating synthetic spaces for higher-order topological sound transport
The authors create synthetic dimensions in acoustic crystals composed of cavity arrays, strongly coupled through modulated channels. They provide evidence for 1D and 2D dynamic topological pumping, and show that the higher-order topological sound ...
