MODEL STUDIES OF A PERFORATED BR<-JKV.'ATER

A Mathematical Model for Analysis of Upright Perforated Wave Absorbers

On the basis of the continuity equation and the Bernoulli equation in the steady form, a differential equation is developed to evaluate the successive water levels within compartments of an upright perforated wave absorber. Then the initial and boundary conditions are introduced and the differential equation is solved as an initial value problem. Finally the reflection coefficient from the wave...

Experimental Studies of Wave Transmission through Single Perforated Sheets and Upright Perforated Wave Filters

Theoretical and Experimental Studies of Upright Perforated Wave Filters

Liu et al. (1987) proposed a theoretical solution for scattering of waves through a permeable dissipation region. On the basis of bulk dissipation of the incident wave energy, this method is extended to evaluate the reflection and transmission coefficients of waves through a wave filter composed of rows of perforated sheets aligned normally to the direction of wave propagation. The results of t...

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...

Thermal Buckling and Thermal Induced free Vibration Analysis of Perforated Composite Plates: a Mathematical Model

This artcile is concerned with thermal buckling and thermal induced free vibration analyses of PCPs (perforated composite plates) with simply supported edges applying a mathematical model. The stiffness and density of PCP are defined locally using Heaviside distribution functions. The governing equations are derived based on CLPT. The present solution gives reasonable results in comparison with...
