THE MODEL UPDATING OF MASS, DAMPING AND STIFFNESS MATRICES

Stiffness-based Approach for Preliminary Design of Framed Tube Structures

A parametric formulation for preliminary design of tubed-system tall buildings is presented in which some optimality criteria and practical constraints are considered. Here, a minimum compliance optimization formulation, developed by other researchers, is applied to a framed-tube structure. The tube behavior is modeled as a cantilevered box beam. Independent variable in this problem is thicknes...

tight frame approximation for multi-frames and super-frames

در این پایان نامه یک مولد برای چند قاب یا ابر قاب تولید شده تحت عمل نمایش یکانی تصویر برای گروه های شمارش پذیر گسسته بررسی خواهد شد. مثال هایی از این قاب ها چند قاب های گابور، ابرقاب های گابور و قاب هایی برای زیرفضاهای انتقال پایاست. نشان می دهیم که مولد چند قاب تنک نرمال شده (ابرقاب) یکتا وجود دارد به طوری که مینیمم فاصله را از ان دارد. همچنین مسایل مشابه برای قاب های دوگان مطرح شده و برخی ...

Symbolic Stiffness Optimization of Planar Tensegrity Structures

During the design of mechanical systems one normally exploits numerical analysis and optimization tools. We make a plea for symbolic computation and give an example where structural displacements under load are computed symbolically. Geometrical design parameters enter in this computation. The set of equilibrium conditions, linear in the displacements, but nonlinear in the design parameters, is...

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...
