A new expression to predict secant rotational stiffness of spudcan in undrained soils [PDF]
The nonlinear behavior of spudcan foundation will lead to the decrease of the rotational stiffness of the spudcan, leading to the increase of the stress at the critical member of the offshore jack-up drilling platform. Secant rotational stiffness is used

Post Buckling Behavior of Prismatic Structural Steel Members with Semi Rigid Connections [PDF]
In most designs of steel frames,beam-column connections are assumed either perfectly pinned or fully rigid. This assumption results in an incorrect estimation of the structural behavior of these frames.

Design and Analysis of Variable-Stiffness Fast-Steering Mirror
The non-variable stiffness of the flexible hinge in the fast-steering mirror (FSM) cannot adapt to varying load demands. To address this issue, this paper presents an innovative variable-stiffness rotational mechanism designed for use with FSMs. Firstly,

Negative potential energy content analysis in cracked rotors whirl response
Appearance of transverse cracks in rotor systems mainly affects their stiffness content. The stability of such systems at steady-state running is usually analyzed by using the Floquet’s theory.
