Rigid impacts of three-dimensional rocking structures

چکیده

Abstract Studies of rocking motion aim to explain the remarkable earthquake resistance structures. State-of-the-art assessment methods are mostly based on planar models, despite ongoing efforts understand significance three-dimensionality. Impacts essential components motion. We present experimental measurements free-rocking blocks a rigid surface, focusing extreme sensitivity impacts geometric imperfections, unpredictability, and emergence three-dimensional via spontaneous symmetry breaking. These results inspire development new impact models facet edge polyhedral objects. Our model is natural generalization existing seminal work George W. Housner. Model parameters estimated empirically for rectangular blocks. Finally, perspectives in structures discussed.

On Rigid and Infinitesimal Rigid Displacements in Three-Dimensional Elasticity

Let Ω be an open connected subset of R and letΘ be an immersion from Ω into R. It is first established that the set formed by all rigid displacements, i.e., that preserve the metric, of the open set Θ(Ω) is a submanifold of dimension 6 and of class C∞ of the space H(Ω). It is then shown that the vector space formed by all the infinitesimal rigid displacements of the same set Θ(Ω) is nothing but...

Three Dimensional DNA Structures in

We show that 3-dimensional graph structures can be used for solving computational problems with DNA molecules. Vertex building blocks consisting of k-armed (k = 3 or k = 4) branched junction molecules are used to form graphs. We present procedures for the 3-SAT and 3-vertex-colorability problems. Construction of one graph structure (in many copies) is suucient to determine the solution to the p...
