On the dynamic spatial response of a heat exchanger tube with intermittent baffle contacts
R.J. Rogers,R.J. Pick +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a modal superposition approach was used to predict the motions and contact forces of a single heat exchanger tube using a finite element technique. But the model was not applied to the case of a CCA with a clearance support at the free end.

A note on transverse vibrations of a Timoshenko beam of non-uniform thickness clamped at one end and carrying a concentrated mass at the other
TL;DR: In this paper, the lower natural frequencies of vibration of the structural system described the title have been determined and are presented for a significant range of values of the governing mechanical and geometric parameters for two types of configurations of structural interest: discontinuous variation of the thickness and continuous, linear variation.

Two Finite Elements for Modeling the Adhesive in Bonded Configurations
William C. Carpenter,R. Barsoum +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, two special finite elements are presented for modeling the adhesive in a bonded configuration and the assumptions of numerous lap joint theories can be modeled with the elements by selecting values of control parameters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of regularization methods to damage detection in large scale plane frame structures using incomplete noisy modal data
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented an approach for detecting local damage in large scale frame structures by utilizing regularization methods for ill-posed problems based on the perturbation method for structural dynamic systems.

A quadrilateral 2‐D finite element based on mixed interpolation of tensorial components
TL;DR: In this article, a quadrilateral 2D finite element for linear and nonlinear analysis of solids is presented, which is based on the technique of mixed interpolation of tensorial components.
