The modal testing has proven to be an effective and non-destructive test method for estimation of the dynamic stiffness and damping constant. The aim of the present paper is to investigate the modal response of stiffened Fiber Metal Laminated (FML) circular cylindrical shells using experimental and numerical techniques. For this purpose, three types of FML-stiffened shells are fabricated by a s...

The study of commuting mode choice is crucial since driving, with all its associated environmental and economic consequences, the United States’ most popular transportation due to urban sprawl, priority road construction America’s love affair automobile. More attention needs be paid sustainable modes such as public transit walking. built environment expected have an impact on choice. Built envi...

Kentsel faaliyetlerin sürekliliği, iyi yönlendirilmiş ulaşım sistemleri tarafından sağlanmakta ve sürdürülebilir kentsel gelişmenin önemli bir bileşeni haline gelmektedir. kamusal alanlar, toplumsal yaşamın odak noktası olan meydanları içermektedir. Kent meydanları, entegre edilmiş farklı türleri ile etkin erişim gerektiren sosyal noktaları olarak hizmet vermektedir. Bu noktadan hareketle bu ma...

this study contains the identification of modal dynamic properties of a 3-story large-scale steel test frame structure through shaking table measurements. shaking table test is carried out to estimate the modal properties of the test frame such as natural frequencies, damping ratios and mode shapes. among many different model structures, arx (auto recursive exogenous) model structure is used fo...
