Dry, frictional steel-on-steel contacts under small-scale oscillations are considered experimentally and theoretically. As indenting bodies, spheres, and truncated spheres are used to retrace the transition from smooth to sharp contact profile geometries.

An analysis of the modified Dahl and Masing models: application to a belt tensioner [PDF]
The objective of this paper is to describe the modified Dahl and Masing models used for predicting hysteretic behavior, and tested on a belt tensioner for automotive engines. An experimental study with deflection imposed on the tensioner is first carried

Hysteretic Characteristics of Wood-Frame Structures Under Seismic Motions [PDF]
In order to develop seismic codes that can effectively mitigate damage to wood-frame construction under seismic activity, the dynamic characteristics of wood-frame buildings must be well understood.

Different researches have shown that during destructive earthquakes, most structures enter non-reactionary range. Hysteretic Energy, which is wasted after the yield within its hysteresis rings, is very influential on generating structural damage of the ...

On the nature of the hysteretic behavior in GdCu compound [PDF]
Magnetic susceptibility measurements performed by de Wijn et al. were interpreted as to indicate the occurrence of a phase transformation from CsCl to the FeB structure in GdCu compounds at 77 K. The CaCl structure was found to reappear after a high temperature heat treatment. However, Ross et al.

New expressions to estimate damping in direct displacement baseddesign for special concentrically-braced frames [PDF]
Different expressions have been developed to determine damping of structures based on various hysteretic models and ductility levels. Since Slenderness ratio is an important parameter on the hysteretic behavior of special concentrically- braced frames ...

Optimization of the Curved Metal Damper to Improve Structural Energy Dissipation Capacity
Structural curved metal dampers are implemented in various applications to mitigate the damages at a specific area efficiently. A stable and saturated hysteretic behavior for the in-plane direction is dependent on the shape of a curved-shaped damper ...

Methods for estimating hysteretic behavior and vibration responses of a timing belt tensioner
An automatic tensioner that consists of a torsional spring and friction damping elements is widely used in belt drive system. The relation of the applied torque versus the imposed angle of tensioner during loading and unloading processes is described as ...
