Planning robot trajectory is a complex task that plays a significant role in design and application of robots in task space. The problem is formulated as a trajectory optimization problem which is fundamentally a constrained nonlinear optimization problem. Open-loop optimal control method is proposed as an approach for trajectory optimization of cable parallel manipulator for a given two-end-po...

Some explicit analytical expressions of the dynamic shear load-carrying capacity for brittle materials under a quadratic waveform loading are presented on basis incubation time fracture criterion, by which can be determined from quasi-static material parameters, and stress wave conditions (loading amplitude, duration, waveform). The numerical results in good agreement with previous experimental...

With growth the construction technologies, Cold-Formed Steel, CFS, sections are widely used in ordinary steel buildings because of some advantages such as light weight, ease of installation, decrease in cost, and increase in speed of operation. Using the bolted connections for CFS joist is one of the best details for steel structures. The main objective of this study is to conduct an experiment...

The calculation of the load carrying capacity of variable thickness circular plates subjected to arbitrary rotational symmetric loading is presented. The analysis considers plate materials that obey either the square or the Tresca yield criterion. By using upper and lower bound theorems of limit analysis, corresponding estimations for the load carrying capacity of the plate are obtained. It is ...

in this paper, static performance characteristics for a finite lenght two-lobe journal bearing lubricated with micropolar fluid is studied. using finite element method, steady-state film pressure is obtained by solving modified reynolds equation, based on micropolar lubrication theory. with the help of film pressure in bearing, the static performance characteristics in terms of load carrying ca...

The objective of the presented research is to develop an efficient control system for highway load effects that involves the control of various parameters including: truck weight (axle weights and axle spacing), truck load distribution on bridge girders, dynamic load, strain, stress and deflection of bridge components, and verification procedure for the minimum load carrying capacity. This stud...

Geometric imperfections such as radial imperfection, diamond shape, and local dimples could affect the buckling mode and load carrying capacity of axially compressed steel tubular columns. This paper experimentally investigates the effect of radial imperfection on the load carrying capacity of tubular columns. Test samples include 100 specimens with different values for diameter, length, thickn...

The shear panels of plate girder made from corrugated in the web is investigated this research. A beam attached zone as part an experimental and theoretical investigation into girders. In experiments, seven specimens were tested under two points load. Six them different shape web, last specimen was without corrugation a reference called control. study effected (corrugation plate, thickness with...
