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. -
Aerothermodynamics, Nonlinear Acoustics and the Meteorological Equations
The study of low-Mach-number flows occurs in the general context of asymptotic modelling of fluid flows, and in a recent book (Zeytounian 2004, Chap.... -
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.... -
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... -
Some Aspects of Low-Mach-Number External Flows
In this chapter, we consider first, in Sect. 4.1, a detailed derivation of the Navier–Fourier initial–boundary–value problem for the Navier velocity... -
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... -
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... -
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... -
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... -
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... -
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... -
Some Aspects of Low-Mach-Number Internal Flows
In the present chapter, the main problem concerns low-Mach-number flow affected by acoustic effects in a confined gas over a long time. -
Slow Atmospheric Motion as a Low-Mach-Number Flow
First, in Sect. 6.1, we discuss in detail various facets of the applicability of the Boussinesq approximation to slow atmospheric motion. In Sect.... -
The Many Faces of the Asymptotics of Low-Mach-Number Flows
It has long been known (Janzen 1913 and Rayleigh 1916) that asymptotic methods provide a sound way of describing incompressible aerodynamics... -
A First Approach to the Asymptotics of Low-Mach-Number Flows
In this chapter, we describe an initial (rather ‘naive’) approach to the asymptotics of low-Mach-number flows, based mainly on consideration of the... -
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]: -
