In this paper, we are concerned with the stabilization of linear port-Hamiltonian systems arbitrary order N ∈ ℕ on a bounded 1-dimensional spatial domain ( , b ). to achieve stabilization, couple system dynamic boundary controller, that is, controller acts only via points domain. We use nonlinear in capture behavior realistic actuators often exhibit and, moreover, allow output be corrupted by a...

We hereby report on the incorporation of negative stiffness oscillators realized through Euler buckled beams within vibrating multilayered sandwich structures. Such devices have been extensively investigated as single degree freedom isolation mechanisms when mechanical grounding is available. It worth exploring influences implementing such continuous structures given their interesting nonlinear...

background: the purpose of this paper is to establish an easy and reliable biodosimeter protocol to evaluate the biological effects of proton beams. materials and methods: human peripheral blood lymphocytes were irradiated using proton beams (let: 34.6 kev μm−1), and the chromosome aberrations induced were analyzed using cytokinesis-blocked (cb) micronucleus (mn) assay. to determine the efficie...

background: this work investigated the dosimetry limitations of the random and systematic uncertainties of sliding window (sw) intensity modulated radiation therapy (imrt). materials and methods: a varian 21ex linear accelerator, pinnacle3 treatment planning system and radiographic film dosimetry was used. the limitations of the sw were studied using beam modulation ranging from 2 to 100 mu/bea...

recently, a large amount of studies have been related to nonlinear systems with multi-degrees of freedom as well as continuous systems. the purpose of this paper is to optimize passive vibration absorbers in linear and nonlinear states for an euler-bernoulli beam with a nonlinear vibratory behavior under concentrated moving load. the goal parameter in the optimization is maximum deflection of t...

Cantilever beams have an important role in day to day life in bridges, towers, buildings and aircraft wings, making active vibration suppression a highly researched field. The purpose of this paper is to detail the design of fractional order PID controllers for smart beams. A novel tuning procedure is proposed based on solving a set of nonlinear complex equations that directly aim at reducing t...

In 1890 Bryan observed that when a vibrating structure is rotated the vibrating pattern rotates at a rate proportional to the rate of rotation. During investigations of the effect in various solid and fluid-filled objects of various shapes, an interesting commonality was found in connection with the gyroscopic effects of the rotating object. The effect has also been discussed in connection with...
