TL;DR: The outer topographic rise seaward of many island arcs can be explained in terms of a bending moment applied to the oceanic lithosphere either by the downgoing slab to which it is attached or by modest shear stresses acting along the underthrusting plate boundary as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: Summary
The outer topographic rise seaward of many island arcs can be explained in terms of a bending moment applied to the oceanic lithosphere either by the downgoing slab to which it is attached or by modest shear stresses acting along the underthrusting plate boundary. The existence of the outer rise does not require large horizontal compressive stresses to maintain it.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared three different beam models and relevant finite elements for the nonlinear analysis of composite members with partial interaction, and showed that the three models present small differences when composite beams dominated by the bending behaviour are considered.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented an analytical-experimental investigation on structural modeling of coupled composite beams with distributed induced-strain actuators based on Vlasov theory is developed to include distributed piezoelectric actuators, either surface mounted or embedded.
Abstract: This paper presents an analytical-experimental investigation on structural modeling of coupled composite beams with distributed induced-strain actuators Analysis based on Vlasov theory is developed to include distributed piezoelectric actuators, either surface mounted or embedded Salient features of composite open-section beam analysis, like constrained warping and transverse shear deformation, were included Induced-strain actuation was introduced in the constitutive relations of plate segment of the open-section composite beams To evaluate the analytical predictions, several bending-torsion and extension-torsion coupled graphite-epoxy solid beams were fabricated using an autoclave molding technique These were surface mounted with piezoelectric actuators The actuators were excited to produce local bending moment and axial force on the beam, and the structural response was measured in terms of bending slope, induced twist, and surface strain Good correlation between analysis and experiment was achieved Because of the existence of a chordwise actuator moment, the induced twist of bending-torsi on coupled beams was significantly influenced by including the chordwise curvature of the plate segment of beam in the formulation For [45]i4 solid beams, the chordwise bending of the plate segment of beam was found to increase the tip twist by about
