Book Dynamic Stability of Structures

Download or read book Dynamic Stability of Structures written by George J. Simitses and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report deals primarily with extension of the energy-based concepts of dynamic stability, developed earlier for finite-degree-of-freedom systems, to continuous systems. Moreover, the related criteria for dynamic stability are demonstrated through several structural configurations, such as eccentrically loaded simple two-bar frames, geometrically imperfect, thin, cylindrical shells (of stiffened and unstiffened construction) and subjected to uniform axial compression and lateral pressure, and a pinnted, half-sine, shallow arch loaded transversely. All of these systems are subject to violent buckling under static application of the loads. Moreover, the developed concepts are extended, so as to apply to structural systems, which are either subject to smooth buckling or are not subject to buckling at all under static loading.

Book excerpt: This volume contains the papers presented at the Fourth International Conference of Thin-Walled Structures (ICTWS4), and contains 110 papers which, collectively, provide a comprehensive state-of-the-art review of the progress made in research, development and manufacture in recent years in thin-walled structures.The presentations at the conference had representation form 35 different countries and their topical areas of interest included aeroelastic response, structural-acoustic coupling, aerospace structures, analysis, design, manufacture, cold-formed structures, cyclic loading, dynamic loading, crushing, energy absorption, fatigue, fracture, damage tolerance, plates, stiffened panels, plated structures, polymer matrix composite members, sandwich structures, shell structures, thin-walled beams, columns and vibrational response. The range of applications of thin-walled structures has become increasingly diverse with a considerable deployment of thin-walled structural elements and systems being found in a wide range of areas within Aeronautical, Automotive, Civil, Mechanical, Chemical and Offshore Engineering fields. This volume is an extremely useful reference volume for researchers and designers working within a wide range of engineering disciplines towards the design, development and manufacture of efficient thin-walled structural systems.

Book Nonlinear Analysis of Structures  1997

Download or read book Nonlinear Analysis of Structures 1997 written by Muthukrishnan Sathyamoorthy and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 548 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nonlinear Analysis of Structures presents a complete evaluation of the nonlinear static and dynamic behavior of beams, rods, plates, trusses, frames, mechanisms, stiffened structures, sandwich plates, and shells. These elements are important components in a wide variety of structures and vehicles such as spacecraft and missiles, underwater vessels and structures, and modern housing. Today's engineers and designers must understand these elements and their behavior when they are subjected to various types of loads. Coverage includes the various types of nonlinearities, stress-strain relations and the development of nonlinear governing equations derived from nonlinear elastic theory. This complete guide includes both mathematical treatment and real-world applications, with a wealth of problems and examples to support the text. Special topics include a useful and informative chapter on nonlinear analysis of composite structures, and another on recent developments in symbolic computation. Designed for both self-study and classroom instruction, Nonlinear Analysis of Structures is also an authoritative reference for practicing engineers and scientists. One of the world's leaders in the study of nonlinear structural analysis, Professor Sathyamoorthy has made significant research contributions to the field of nonlinear mechanics for twenty-seven years. His foremost contribution to date has been the development of a unique transverse shear deformation theory for plates undergoing large amplitude vibrations and the examination of multiple mode solutions for plates. In addition to his notable research, Professor Sathyamoorthy has also developed and taught courses in the field at universities in India, Canada, and the United States.

Book Dynamic Buckling of Shell Structures Subject to Longitudinal Impact

Download or read book Dynamic Buckling of Shell Structures Subject to Longitudinal Impact written by A. P. Coppa and published by . This book was released on 1962 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Investigations dealing with the buckling of thin cylindrical and conical shells subject to axial impact are described. The studies consisted of experimental and theoretical efforts directed toward obtaing a qualitative and quantitative understanding of the dynamic buckling behavior of such shells under a variety of conditions. The conditions studied include different longitudinal conditions imposed on the impacted end of the shell and internal pressurization. In addition, methods of increasing the specific energy dissipation capacity of shells subject to axial impact were studied. A number of interesting results were obtained. It was demonstrated experimentally that buckling of a cylindrical shell is initiated during the first passage of the axial compression stress wave due to the initial impact when the impact velocity is sufficiently high. Another significant experimental result obtained is that the asymmetrical (quasi-developable) form of shell buckling occurs as a result of a smooth transition from the symmetrical ("ring") form of bucklingin some thin cylindrical shells subjected to an axially symmetric axial impact. Analytical subject to a constant velocity end displacement. The method utilizes the finite deflection theory and is a refinement of the procedure due to A.S. Volmir. It shows that both the upper critical stress and the number of circumferential waves increase and the time to initiate buckling decreases with increasing velocity of impact. These trends are in agreement with the analytical results of Volmir and a phenomenological theory due to Coppa.

This book was released on 1985-09-30 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes the work performed by Lockheed Palo Alto Research Labora tory, Palo Alto, California 94304. The work was sponsored by Air Force Office of Scientific Research, Bolling AFB, Washington, D. C. under Grant F49620-77-C-0l22 and by the Flight Dynamics Laboratory, Air Force Wright Aeronautical Laboratories, Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio under Contract F3361S-76-C-31OS. The work was completed under Task 2307Nl, "Basic Research in Behavior of Metallic and Composite Components of Airframe Structures". The work was admini stered by Lt. Col. J. D. Morgan (AFOSR) and Dr. N. S. Khot (AFWAL/FIBRA). The contract work was performed between October 1977 and December 1980. The technical report was released by the Author in December 1981. Preface Many structures are assembled from parts which are thin. For example, a stiffened plate or cylindrical panel is composed of a sheet the thickness of which is small com pared to its length, breadth, and stiffener- spacing, and stiffeners the thickness of which is small compared to their _ heights and lengths. These assembled structures, loaded in compression, can buckle overall, that is sheet and stiffeners can collapse together in a general instability mode; the sheet can buckle locally between stiffeners; the stiffeners can cripple; and a variety of complex buckling interactions can occur involving local and overall deformations of both sheet and stiffeners. More complex, built-up structures can buckle in more complex and subtle ways.
