STONEHENGE is a toolbox designed to evaluate nonlinear vibration-based energy harvesting systems, which demand careful studies regarding their nontrivial behavior. It composed of an ensemble codes study and characterize the dynamic behavior, as well deal with varieties physical parameters excitation. For this, it has six modules, initial value problem, animation, tools, sensitivity analysis, st...

Vibration characteristics of subcooled flow boiling on thin and long structures such as a heating rod were recently investigated by the author. The results show that the intensity of the subcooled boiling-induced vibration (SBIV) was influenced strongly by the conditions of the subcooling temperature, linear power density and flow velocity. Implosive bubble formation and collapse are the main n...

Dynamic force (vibration and impulse force) modifies mechanical properties and flow behavior of solid bodies. Experiments in shearing of reinforcement bars with vibration (7.9 kHz) conducted by authors and S.A. Evtjukov at the Department of Construction Machinery of SPbGASU (Saint Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering) revealed the reduction of the static part of the...

Shell structures, especially cylindrical shells, are widely used in aerospace and naval architectural industries. Submarine hulls and aircraft bodies can be idealized as cylindrical shell structures. The study of vibrations of cylindrical shells is an important aspect in the successful applications of the cylindrical shells. The free vibration characteristics of a submarine hull have an importa...

In this article, the free vibration behavior of nanoscale FG rectangular plates is studied within the framework of the refined plate theory (RPT) and small-scale effects are taken into account. Using the nonlocal elasticity theory, the governing equations are derived for single-layered FG nanoplate. The Navier’s method is employed to obtain closed-form solutions for rectangular nanoplates assum...

In this study, electro-thermo-mechanical nonlinear vibration and instability of embedded piezoelectric micro-tube is carried out based on nonlocal theory and nonlinear Donnell's shell model. The smart micro-tube made of Poly-vinylidene fluoride (PVDF) is conveying an isentropic, incompressible fluid. The detailed parametric study is conducted, focusing on the remarkable effects of mean flow vel...

vibration generated by vehicles during road transport has an important effect on the agricultural products damage process, particularly vegetable and fruit. modulus of elasticity is one of the most important mechanical properties of fruits and its variation can be described as one of the damage criteria during transportation. this research was conducted to evaluate the effects of vibration para...
