In the current study, the effects of Casimir force and squeeze film damping on pull-in instability and dynamic behavior of electrostatically actuated nano and micro electromechanical systems are investigated separately. Linear elastic membrane theory is used to model the static and dynamic behavior of the system for strip, annular and disk geometries. Squeeze film damping is modeled using nonli...

totoday’s market place is increasingly dynamic and volatile. in this area supply network issues recently have attracted a lot of attention from industrial practitioners and academics worldwide. chaos theory is the study of complex, nonlinear, dynamic systems. for chaotic systems, a tiny change in conditions may result in an enormous change in system output, whereas substantial changes in condit...

endurance time (et) method is a relatively new performance-based earthquake method for structural evaluation and design. in this method, the structure is subjected to a gradually intensifying accelorogram(s) and its performance is assessed based on the maximum time duration that it can meet the specified performance objectives. using moment-resisting and braced frames which are rehabilitated by...

progressive collapse is a chain reaction of failures propagating throughout a portion of the structure disproportionate to the original local failure occurring when a sudden loss of a critical load‐bearing element initiates a structural element failure, eventually resulting in partial or full collapse of the structure. both general services administration (gsa) and united states department of d...
