Data-scarce surrogate modeling of shock-induced pore collapse process
Understanding the mechanisms of shock-induced pore collapse is of great interest in various disciplines in sciences and engineering, including...

Dimensional reduction technique for the prediction of global and local responses of unidirectional composite with matrix nonlinearity and varying fiber packing geometry
The problem associated with the computational homogenization of composite materials often results in expensive computational cost that prevents...

Application-driven development of a thermal imaging-based cabin occupant thermal sensation assessment model and its validation
The air conditioning (A/C) of cabins allows for customized control, but manual adjustments may distract drivers, as well as result in energy...

Characteristics and Formation Mechanism of Ca–Mg–Al–Si–O + (Ca,Mn)S Duplex Inclusions in Ca–S Free-Cutting Steel
Large numbers of long strip-shaped pure MnS inclusions in steel will result in anisotropy of mechanical properties. To obtain more duplex (Ca,Mn)S...

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...

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.
-
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....

Derivation of Force and Power Equations
The inconsistency between the power and force equations of motion, (2.4) and (2.1) or (2.5), is so surprising that one is tempted to question the...

Internal Binding Forces
In Appendix B, we have critically confirmed the evaluation of the self electromagnetic force and power, (3.1) and (3.2), leading to the force and...

A Imperfection Data Bank
For the stochastic modeling of geometric imperfections as described in Sec. 12.1, a database [5] has been available. This database provides...

Optical Techniques for Local Measurement
Optical measurement techniques are well suited to many heat transfer problems, insofar as they are non-contact and generally non-invasive. Far-field...
