We introduce a simplified model for the minimization of the elastic energy in thin shells. This model is not obtained by an asymptotic analysis. The nonlinear simplified model admits always minimizers by contrast with the original one. We show the relevance of our approach by proving that the rescaled minimum of the simplified model and the rescaled infimum of the full model have the same limit...

We determine and use a minimal set of numerical simulations to create a simplified model for the spectral response of nanoantennae with respect to their geometric and modeling parameters. The simplified model is then used to rapidly obtain best-fit modeling parameters to match experimental results, accurately predict the spectral response for various geometries, and inversely design antennae to...

This paper proposes an original simplified model aimed to simulate, an easy way, inter turns short circuit fault, phase to phase fault and phase to ground fault. In this model, the stator is considered as six magnetically coupled windings and the rotor as three not magnetically coupled R–L circuits. The paper also presents the starand delta-connected stator configurations of the simplified mode...

A frequency domain dynamic analysis is needed to obtain the response of structures constructed on a system of base isolators on flexible soil when subjected to earthquake ground motion. In such systems, the lateral stiffness of the base isolators is so small, compared to the structural stiffness, that in an earthquake attack the fundamental vibration mode dominates the response. With this in mi...

Algorithms optimizing area coverage for reconnaissance based on UAV capabilities, fuel rem...

Soil-liquefaction-related hazards can damage structures or lead to an extensive loss of life and property. Therefore, the stability safety against soil liquefaction are essential for evaluation in earthquake design. In practice, simplified analysis procedure associated with numerical simulation is most used approach evaluating behavior effectiveness mitigation plans. First, occurrence evaluated...

In present study, a mathematical model of the vehicle–floating slab track (FST) interaction is established to investigate the coupled behaviour of vehicle–track system. The FST is modelled as the double Euler -Bernoulli beam including the rail and slab. The railway vehicle is simplified as a multi-rigid-body model. The wheel–rail interface is treated using a nonlinear Hertzian contact model, co...

large-scale allocation problem (lsap) is considered to be an important problem in operations research. in this paper, we have tried to model a sample lsap and show that famous linear or approaches in use cannot efficiently help us challenge, develop and handle such cases. we begin with efforts in this area to conclude that timely, efficient and less costly solutions could be only developed unde...
