natural frequency is one of the parameters that represent useful information about the dynamic behavior of structures. controlling this parameter can decrease the probability of damage under dynamic loading. weight optimization on layout and sizing with frequency constraints is a well known problem because of its highly non-linear behavior. improved ray optimization (iro) algorithm is utilized ...

this paper presents the effects of geometric tolerances on the rotating shafts natural frequencies. due to modeling the tolerances, a code is written in matlab 2013 software that produces deviated points. deviated points are controlled by different geometric tolerances, including cylindricity, total run-out and coaxiality tolerances. final surfaces and models passing through the points are crea...

now a days, structures with planar geometry such as sheet metals, have attracted special consideration among advanced techno logia, and hence investing vibration behavior of sheet metal is of prim important . in particular regarding dynamical investigations, if the natural frequencies get ignored, the resonance phenomena can exert noun computing damages to the structure and systems. in this res...

BACKGROUND Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a benign bone tumor which most commonly involves the craniofacial skeleton. The most devastating consequence of craniofacial FD (CFD) is loss of vision due to optic nerve compression (ONC). Radiological evidence of ONC is common, however the management of this condition is not well established. Our objective was to compare the long-term outcome of patients w...

An important fraction of the energy consumption in buildings is related to controlling the indoor temperature. In moderate climates passive cooling by nighttime ventilation can result in significant energy savings, but modeling natural ventilation systems for design and performance predictions remains a challenging task. We investigate the predictive capability of a box model and a CFD simulati...

This review of published studies was conducted to derive data on patients with congenital fibrinogen deficiency (CFD), including dosing of fibrinogen replacement therapy, outcome, and adverse events, either temporally related or distant to fibrinogen replacement, in order to assist clinicians in developing treatment plans for patients with CFD. A systematic review was performed of case reports ...

This study based on free vibration analysis and study the behavior of framed structure under different frequency of vibration using ANSYS software and shaking table. A small scale uni-axial shaking table was prepared in laboratory, which can produce lower to moderate vibration, regarding frequency and velocity. Moment resisting framed structures constructed with connecting beam and column eleme...

PURPOSE Recently, image-based computational fluid dynamic (CFD) simulations have been proposed to investigate the local hemodynamics inside human cerebral aneurysms. It was suggested that the knowledge of the computed three-dimensional flow fields can be used to assist clinical risk assessment and treatment decision making. Therefore, it was desired to know the reliability of CFD for cerebral b...

A fundamental issue in locomotion is to understand how muscle forcing produces apparently complex deformation kinematics leading to movement of animals like undulatory swimmers. The question of whether complicated muscle forcing is required to create the observed deformation kinematics is central to the understanding of how animals control movement. In this work, a forced damped oscillation fra...

the most important quality indicator of fruits is the flesh firmness which is well correlated to their young’s modulus. in this research variation of vibration characteristics (shape modes, natural frequency) of apple due to change of material characteristics (density, young's models, poisson ratio) and apple volume was investigated using finite element simulation. an image processing technique...
