A comprehensive method of theoretical analysis for finite Squeeze Film Damper using finite element method is presented. The modified Reynolds equation in the film is solved using the finite element discretization. A Galerkin variational method is applied for solving modified Reynolds equation to determine the pressures as well as load carrying capacities. The pressure distribution and load carr...

In this study, experimental study on six RC columns with different slenderness ratios under axial rapid loading was conducted to investigate the axial compression behaviour of RC columns considering the effect of strain rates. The failure pattern of the specimens and the relations of axial loading versus the axial deformation were described. From the test results, the specimens under static and...

in this study, the stability problem of a circular orthotropic cylindrical shell under the effect of anaxial compression varying with a power function of time is considered. at first, the modified donnell typedynamic stability and compatibility equations are obtained using love’s shell theory. applying the galerkinmethod and rayleigh-ritz variational techniques to these equations and taking the...
