in the present paper, the modal analysis on a full finite element model of an off-road vehicle. this vehicle was modeled in the catia software and then meshed in the hypermesh software. the free vibration analysis was conducted by the abaqus software. by applying an external displacement, the forced vibration analysis was also performed. as a result, natural frequencies and shape modes were ext...

wide range of planar structures in new technologies has attracted special consideration. in this research vibration behavior of plates with non-linear edges is investigated by means of finite difference (fd) method. for this issue, classical and analytical solutions for plates with linear edges were analyzed and mutual equations, needed for numerical calculation were extracted. by expanding the...

in the present paper, we are to put forth a paradigm for the systematic study of modality in persian.with this end in view, we consider modality as a linguistic phenomenon that can be expressed at the level of sentence, at the level of constituents smaller than sentence and/or at the level of discourse. in such a system where sentential modality, sub-sentential modality and discourse modality a...

the nonlinear static procedures (nsps) proposed by design codes do not lead to reliable results especially for tall buildings. they generally provide inconsistent estimates of inelastic seismic demands, especially for the top floors due to their inabilities in considering the higher modes effects. in this paper, a new enhanced pushover procedure is proposed which is based on the envelope of the...
