This paper presents an improved crack model incorporating non-linearity of flexural damage in concrete to reproduce changes in vibration properties of cracked reinforced concrete beams. A reinforced concrete beam model with multiple-distributed flexu... Read More about Modelling the degradation of vibration characteristics of reinforced concrete beams due to flexural damage.

Vibration of a beam on continuous elastic foundation with nonhomogeneous stiffness and damping under a harmonically excited mass (2014)
Journal Article
Koroma, S. G., Hussein, M. F., & Owen, J. S. (2014). Vibration of a beam on continuous elastic foundation with nonhomogeneous stiffness and damping under a harmonically excited mass. Journal of Sound and Vibration, 333(9), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jsv.2014.01.001

In this paper, a method of analysis of a beam that is continuously supported on a linear nonhomogeneous elastic foundation and subjected to a harmonically excited mass is presented. The solution is obtained by decomposing the nonhomogeneous foundatio...

© 2014 WIT Press. In this work the authors have studied the applicability of the 2D URANS approach adopting a block structured mesh and Menter’s SST k-omega turbulence model for the aspect ratio 4 rectangular cylinder. As a first step, a verification... Read More about Application of 2D URANS in fluid structure interaction problems of rectangular cylinders.
