this paper describes a modified structural dynamics model for aeroelastic analysis of high-aspect-ratio wings undergoing large deformation behavior. to gain this aim, a moderate deflection beam model is modified with some important large deflection terms and then coupled with a state space unsteady aerodynamics model. finite element method is used to discretize the equations of motion. a dynami...

In this article, based on the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory, the large-amplitude vibration of multiwalled carbon nanotubes embedded in an elastic medium is investigated. The method of incremental harmonic balance is implemented to solve the set of governing nonlinear equations coupled via the van der Waals (vdW) interlayer force. The influences of number of tube walls, the elastic medium, nanotub...

one of the difficulties of data envelopment analysis(dea) is the problem of deciency discriminationamong efficient decision making units(dmus) and hence, yielding large number of dmus as efficientones. the main purpose of this paper is to overcome this inability. one of the methods for rankingefficient dmus is minimizing the coefficient of variation (cv) for inputs-outputs weights. in this pap...

in recent years, numerous approaches have been utilized for finding the exact solutions to nonlinear partial differential equations. one such method is known as the new extended (g'/g)-expansion method and was proposed by roshid et al. in this paper, we apply this method and achieve exact solutions to nonlinear partial differential equations (nlpdes), namely the benjamin-ono equation. it i...

in this paper, the magnetohydrodynamic (mhd) boundary layer flow over a nonlinear porous stretching sheet is investigated by employing the homotopy perturbation transform method (hptm) and the pade´ approximation. the numerical solution of the governing non-linear problem is developed. comparison of the present solution is made with the existing solution and excellent agreement is noted. graphi...

This article analyzes a strongly nonlinear oscillator with cubic and harmonic restoring force and proposes an efficient analytical technique based on the modified energy balance method (MEBM). The proposed method incorporates higher-order approximations. After applying the proposed MEBM, a set of complicated higher-order nonlinear algebraic equations are obtained. Higher-order nonlinear algebra...
