SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics, Vol. 48, No. 6 (Dec., 1988), pp. 1350-1361 (12 pages) This paper investigates the uniqueness of the parameters of a finite element model of a undamped cantilever ...
This file type includes high-resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. Beam diagrams are used as a fundamental way to teach engineers the basic of static loading. Beams are structural ...
A key property in the majority of engineering applications is a material’s fracture toughness. In order to measure the fracture toughness of low volume materials fracture tests should be carried out a ...
In civil engineering, flexural beams are used to control the effect of vibrations that can cause cracks to appear in surfaces (concrete slabs) and beams. This is particularly important in buildings ...
