linear dynamic response of simply supported nanobeams subjected to a variable axial force is assessed by galerkin numerical approach. constitutive behavior is described by three functional forms of elastic energy densities enclosing nonlocal and strain gradient effects and their combination. linear stationary dynamics of nanobeams is modulated by an axial force which controls the global stiffne...

the complete 3d nonlinear dynamic problem of extensible, flexible risers conveying fluid is considered. for describing the dynamics of the system, the newtonian derivation procedure is followed. the velocity field inside the pipe formulated using hydrostatic and bernoulli equations. the hydrodynamic effects of external fluids are taken into consideration through the nonlinear drag forces in var...

the sirri jacket offshore platform was designed and installed in persian gulf of iran in 1975 and has been in service since that time. the importance of offshore structure's stability and the failure of this kind of structure during an earthquake in different active zones revealed that earthquake loading has to be considered. in this paper, magnetorheological (mr) fluid dampers have been propos...

demand response (dr) has many beneficiaries in the electricity market. there are independent players who are interested in dr, which include: transmission system owners, distributors, retailers, and aggregators. in this paper dr is introduced as a tradable commodity that can be exchanged between dr buyers and sellers in a pool-based market which is called demand response exchange (drx). drx ope...

seismic base isolation are devices that used to limit the human and material damage caused by an earthquake. this devices diffuse the energy induced at the time of the earthquake before being transferred to the structure.the base isolated structures when subjected to the near-fault eathquakes which contain long-period velocity pulses that may coincide with the period of base isolated structures...

Because of random nature of many dependent variables in coastal engineering, treatment of effective parameters is generally associated with uncertainty. Numerical models are often used for dynamic analysis of complex structures, including mechanical systems. Furthermore, deterministic models are not sufficient for exact anticipation of structure’s dynamic response, but probabilistic models...
