  • This paper studies on dynamic and stability behavior of a clamped-elastically restrained nanobeam under the action of a nonconservative force with an emphasis on the influence of surface properties on divergence and flutter instability. Using the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory incorporating surface effects, a governing equation for a clamped-elastically restrained nanobeam is derived according to Hamilton's principle. The characteristic equation is obtained explicitly and the force-frequency interaction curves are displayed to show the influence of the surface effects, spring stiffness of the elastic restraint end on critical loads including divergence and flutter loads. Divergence and flutter instability transition is analyzed. Euler buckling and stability of Beck's column are some special cases of the present at macroscale.

  • The effective length factor is a familiar concept for practicing engineers and has long been an approach for column stability evaluations. Neglecting the effects of axial force in the restraining members, in the case of sway prevented frames, is one of the simplifying assumptions which the Alignment Charts, the conventional nomographs for K-Factor determination, are based on. A survey on the problem reveals that the K-Factor of the columns may be significantly affected when the differences in axial forces are taken into account. In this paper a new iterative approach, with high convergence rate, based on the general principles of structural mechanics is developed and the patterns for detection of the critical member are presented and discussed in details. Such facilities are not available in the previously presented methods. A constructive methodology is outlined and the usefulness of the proposed algorithm is illustrated by numerical examples.

  • This paper has the objects of deciding dynamic instability regions of thick plates on Pasternak foundation by finite element method and providing kinematic design data for mats and slabs of building structures. In this paper, dynamic stability analysis of tapered opening thick plate is done by use of Serendipity finite element with 8 nodes considering shearing strain of plate. To verify this finite element method, buckling stress and natural frequencies of thick pate with or without in-plane stress are compared with existing solutions. The results are as follow that this finite element solutions with 4x4 meshes are shown the error of maximum 0.56% about existing solutions, and obtained dynamic instability graph according with variation of opening positions.

  • In this paper a dynamic behavior(natural frequency) of a cracked simply supported pipe conveying fluid is presented. In addition, an analysis of the buckling instability of a cracked pipe conveying fluid subjected to a follower compressive load is presented. Based on the Euler-Bernouli beam theory, the equation of motion can be constructed by using the Lagrange's equation. The crack section is represented by a local flexibility matrix connecting two undamaged beam segments. TI1e crack is assumed to be in the first mode of fracture and to be always opened during the vibrations.

  • It expects demand of ships which equipped with JIB crane growth to continue. However, demand of JIB crane is increased, domestic shipment company imitated the design of Europe and Japan. And we need to develop the functional system of the JIB crane and modernize it. We need to find the optimum luffing angle for saving energy when JIB crane works. This study analyzed buckling load of JIB and reaction force of support point and stress of JIB according to the luffing angle through finite element analysis when JIB crane loads 40 ton weight.

  • In present work, both the hyperbolic shear deformation theory and stress function concept are used to study the mechanical and thermal stability responses of functionally graded (FG) plates resting on elastic foundation. The accuracy of the proposed formulation is checked by comparing the computed results with those predicted by classical plate theory (CPT), first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT) and higher-order shear deformation theory (HSDT). Moreover, results demonstrate that the proposed formulation can achieve the same accuracy of the existing HSDTs which have more number of governing equations.

  • The object of this study is to develop a reliable FEM simulation technique for the analysis of can making process using PAM-STAMP software. The processes consist of doming and necking in addition to drawing, redrawing. After body making process, this study analyzed the stability for internal pressure by simulating buckling test. Through these technique, we estimated the dome reversal pressure of steel D&I Can for various can profile and process conditions. From this study, we found the cause and mechanism of wrinkling during necking process. This mechanism is largely affected by can wall thickness and the clearance between knock out punch and necking die. The dome reversal pressure improves with increasing dome depth. These results validate the usefulness of the developed simulation technique for the analysis of body making process and optimization of the dome profile.

  • A material handling crane is composed of many complex structural components which require sufficient strength, stiffness and stability throughout its service life and need to be light in weight, and satisfy the required functions under the entire range of operating conditions. In this study, the analysis system for material handling cranes is presented. This program integrate various structural analyses modules with the GU(Graphic User Interface) concept. Utilizing basic variables as input data, the analysis system performs quasi-static, eigenvalue, buckling, fatigue and stability analysis. Using this program, the designer can generate optimal design data for the cranes without my actual measurements. This system will also be extended to other mechanical structures with kinematic motion like crane.

  • Recently continuous welded rail is generally used to ensure running performances and to overcome the problems such as structural vulnerability and fastener damage at the rail expansion joint. Though the use of continuous welded rail on bridge has the advantage of decreasing the vibration and damage of rail, it still the risk of buckling and breaking of rail due to change of temperature, starting and/or breaking force, axial stress concentration and so on. So, VIC code and many methods has been developed by researchers considering rail-bridge interaction. Although there are many research concerning stability of continuous welded rail about temperature change on bridge and starting and/or breaking force, the study of continuous welded mil for earthquake load is still unsufficient. In this study, the nonlinear seismic response analysis of continuous welded rail on bridge considering soil-structure interaction, geotechnical characteristic of foundation and earthquake isolation equipment has been performed to examine the stability of continuous welded rail.
