Modeling and Analysis of Non-functional Properties in Component-based Systems

This paper discusses methodologies for the specification and analysis of performance related properties of components and assemblies of components, and outlines an original approach, called the CB-SPE. The proposed approach relies on, and adapts to a CB framework, the concepts and steps of the SPE technology and uses for modeling the standard RT-UML profile, reshaped according to the CB princip...

Modeling and analysis of a three-component piezoelectric force sensor

This paper presents a mathematical model for the vibration analysis of a three-component piezoelectric force sensor. The cubic theory of weakly nonlinear electroelasticity is applied to the model for describing the electromechanical coupling effect in the piezoelectric sensing elements which operate in thickness-shear and thickness-stretch vibration modes. Hamilton's principle is used to derive...

Towards Component-Based Software Performance Engineering

Early and rigorous performance analysis of component-based systems is a crucial issue in software engineering to guarantee that the developed components and their assemblies will satisfy their quality requirements. We propose an original approach, called the CB-SPE, for component-based software performance engineering. CB-SPE relies on, and adapts to a CB framework, the concepts and steps of th...

Assembly Modeling for Plan Generation and Dfa Analysis

Assembly is the state when a product really comes to life and is able to function; a product achieves its functionality by the concerted efforts of its components. Assembling consists of the act of putting two or more components together; but behind the scenes work includes many activities necessary to realize a complete product, repair it, disassemble it for recycling or disposal and so on. Du...

Non-Linear Behavior of New (FSFN) Moment Resisting Connections in Comparison to the Existing KBB Connections in Steel Frames

After Northridge (1994) and Kobe (1995) earthquakes, several studies have been conducted to improve the seismic performance of steel structures. In this investigation, new steel moment-resisting connections (FSFN) developed by the authors, were studied by the non-linear numerical analysis. These connections were single-sided beam-to-column assemblies that are representative of exterior beam-to-...
