Nonlinear Response‐History Analyses of Masonry and Mixed Structures With HybriDFEM
ABSTRACT The hybrid discrete‐finite element (HybriDFEM) method, previously developed to perform static and modal analysis in discrete and coupled discrete‐finite element models, is extended to nonlinear response‐history analyses. The equations of motion for the HybriDFEM model are solved through various numerical time‐integration schemes, both explicit

Finite Element Modelling of Rocking and Hybrid Precast Walls under Seismic Loading
ABSTRACT In recent years, self‐centring systems have received considerable research interest in the seismic design of precast concrete structures for their ability to limit damage and satisfy resilience requirements. Rocking and hybrid structural walls, characterised by the formation of a single gap at the wall–foundation interface, mitigate damage by ...

Shaped electrodes for adaptive X‐ray optics
For adaptive X‐ray optics on high‐performance beamline optical systems, we describe an approach to mirror figure and slope control using patterned, shaped electrodes to control the local curvature on a lithium niobate substrate from a single applied voltage. Longitudinally continuous electrode patterns achieve target shapes without discontinuities, and

Study on physical essence of the Timoshenko beam theory and its relation with the Euler beam theory [PDF]
Compared with the Euler beam theory, the Timoshenko beam theory has the advantages in solution accuracy and in applicable aspect ratios. However, it received some criticisms in two aspects: firstly, it is energy inconsistent, and secondly, it cannot be reduced to the Euler beam theory in a mechanics way.

ABSTRACT Understanding the dynamic behavior of structural components is crucial for optimizing performance and ensuring structural integrity. This study presents a new method that combines a systematic experimental investigation of four distinct hole geometries (circular, square, compact rectangular, and long rectangular) with varying hole counts, all ...

Dynamic Analysis with Three Beam Theories for a Rotating FGM Micro-Beam Based on Meshless Methods
This paper investigates the dynamic characteristics of rotating functionally graded material (FGM) micro-beams based on Euler–Bernoulli beam theory, Euler–Bernoulli beam theory incorporating shear deformation, and Timoshenko theory. The deformation field

A LINEARIZED TIMOSHENKO BEAM THEORY IN FINITE DISPLACEMENTS
A linearized finite displacement theory of the Timoshenko beam is formulated as the counterpart to so-called beam-column theory of the Bernoulli-Euler beam. The corresponding stiffness equation is derived in a useful form for practical applications. Both theory and stiffness equation result in the same buckling load as the Engesser formula which has ...

Nonlinear Vibration Characteristic Analysis of Electric Vehicle–Road Coupling System
ABSTRACT In‐wheel motor drive is the developing direction of automobile electrification and intelligence. However, the increased unsprung mass in in‐wheel motor‐driven electric vehicles (IWMEVs) leads to higher dynamic tire loads, thereby intensifying vehicle–road coupling interactions. To address this problem, an 11‐degree‐of‐freedom nonlinear dynamic
