Out-of-Plane Vibrations of Plane Frames
The frame vibrations studied in Chaps. 3 to 5 are for in-plane vibrations. If a plane frame acted upon by a force or horizontal ground vibration in... -
Conical Shells of Linearly Varying Thickness Subjected to Normal Loads
The equilibrium equations for a surface element of a conical shell in the framework of generalized plane stress of linear theory of elasticity are... -
Vibrations of X-Braced Multi-Story Frames
The study of vibrations for the x-braced portal frames in the last chapter is extended to high-rise x-braced multi-story frames in this chapter.... -
Vibrations of Frames with Inclined Members
The model established for the vibration of the inclined bars in the last chapter now is applied to two- and three-bar frames with inclined members. -
Two‐Fluid Approach: Example of Awe's Model
Two‐fluid descriptions often use explicitly separate treatments for the conservation equations in each fluid, along with expressions for exchange... -
Conclusion, Future Modeling Trends
The relevance of this study stands not in the topics that have been discussed, since most of them have already been explored for many years now, but... -
Comparison of Single and Two‐Fluid Approaches
The results of the “0D„ analyses gathered in Tables 5.1 and 6.1 and discussed in Sects. 5.3 and 6.2 provide the basis for comparing Dam's к–ε and... -
Specific Treatment of Shocks: Constraints on Models1
Before examining the phenomenology of the interaction between a shock and turbulent or material heterogeneities, it is useful to recall that the... -
Single‐Fluid Approach: Example of Dam's к–ε Model
The statistical equations for the turbulent flow of an incompressible fluid are found in the literature [58], but they are adapted here to the... -
Vibrations of X-Braced Portal Frames
Because of devastation of structures due to earthquake and wind force, increasing attention has been paid to dynamic responses of braced structures... -
A Boundary-Layer Solution Verified by Buckling of a Rectangular Plate
The so called edge-zone or boundary-layer solutions are widely used in large dediection problems of thin elastic plates [20,35,36] and shells... -
Inclined Girders with End Constraint Subjected to Normal Loads
A two-bar truss subjected to lateral normal distributed loads as shown in Fig. 9.1 represents a double leaf miter-type gate used in navigation locks... -
Review of Different Instability Types and Regimes
The three major types of “ideal„ instabilities studied here are [92]: -

Two Methods for Analysis of Continuum Mechanics of Elastic Structures
There are two basic methods to analyze the continuum elastic structural mechanics: One is by applying Newton’s law of motion to a free body element... -
Vibrations of Inclined Bars with End Constraint
Considered are the vibrations of inclined bars with the bottom end flxed in space and the top end having a constraint which requires that this end... -
Buckling of Inclined Columns
The stability of a simple truss subjected to a single force, P, as shown in Fig. 8.1 was investigated by Mises [40] as a basic model to illustrate... -
Membrane Vibrations of Conical Shells
The vibrations of conical shells are due to the inertial and external forces acting the transverse, circumferential and meridional directions of the... -
Introduction
Many Dam applications involve phenomena of hydrodynamic mixing instabilities at interfaces between different materials. Simulation codes must include... -
Reconstruction by Awe's Two‐Fluid Model of Developed Mixing Instabilities
The self‐similar incompressible “0D„ approach can be used to estimate the performance of Awe's two‐fluid model in the three cases of simple mixing...
