in this article, vibration analysis of an euler-bernoulli beam resting on a pasternak-type foundation is studied. the governing equation is solved by using a spectral finite element model (sfem). the solution involves calculating wave and time responses of the beam. the fast fourier transform function is used for temporal discretization of the governing partial differential equation into a set ...

this paper presents a finite element analysis and its related experimental test of corrugated steel web beams subjected to fatigue loading. a particular focus in this study was set on the fatigue failure arising from the web-to-flange welded joint of the corrugated steel web beam. a detailed three-dimensional finite element model which explicitly includes the geometry of the web-to-flange welds...

Reinforced concrete structures consists of two main components and the behavior of these structures influenced by gender and material properties, in order to investigate the behavior of concrete reinforced beam that most important flexural element in reinforced concrete structures, we chosen High Strength Concrete (HSC) for concrete and GFRP and steel bars for reinforcement. For compare the new...

A new approach is developed for finite element modeling of muiti-layer laminated beams. Within the beam element, the laminate is decomposed as muttiple basic layers, such as base beam layers of metal like, soft-core layers of adhesives, and soft coating layers of polymers, and mass and stiffness matrices of these basic layers are assembled together to generate those matrices for the beam elemen...

In this study, the behavior characteristics of I beam-to-concrete filled tube (CFT) column connection is studied through experiment and finite element models under the monotonic loading. To validate the finite element modeling, at first, an experimental model is made and experimented. After validation of the finite element modeling, different models were created in the software. The studied par...

This work focuses on finite element formulations for the accurate modeling and efficient simulation of the implicit dynamics of slender fiberor rod-like components and their contact interaction when being embedded in complex systems of fiber-based materials and structures. Recently, the authors have proposed a novel all-angle beam contact (ABC) formulation that combines the advantages of existi...

  In the current work, the seismic analysis of bent region in buried pipes is performed, and effects of soil properties and modeling methods on pipe’s response are investigated. To do this task Beam, Beam-Shell Finite Element modeling and a Continuum shell FE models of a 90 degrees elbow are employed. In the Beam model, the pipe is simulated by beam elements while combined shell-beam elements a...

The aim of the study was to examine the deformation modes and also degradation of an adhesively bonded rectangular cross section beam used in the automotive body structure. The study included: (1) performing new experimental investigations on the three-point bend behavior of a rectangular cross section beam made by adhesive bonding method. (2) developing a finite element (FE) model to predict t...
