ATM(automated teller machine) is a machine which can deposit and withdraw money directly. For effective transfer of bills in the machine, crown belts are used. In this paper, the transverse vibration of crown belt is investigated. The equation of motion of the belt is derived using Lagrange's equation. Galerkin's method is applied to convert the partial differential equation to the ordinary differential equations. Experimental investigations are performed on the belt system with the variation of pulley type, eccentricity, and tension. The results of numerical analysis show in good agreement with the experimental results.

This paper investigates the approximate solution bounds of radon diffusion equation in soil pore matrix coupled with uncertainty. These problems have been modeled by few researchers by considering the parameters as crisp, which may not give the correct essence of the uncertainty. Here, the interval uncertainties are handled by parametric form and solution of the relevant uncertain diffusion equation is found by using Galerkin's Method. The shape functions are taken as the linear combination of orthogonal polynomials which are generated based on the parametric form of the interval uncertainty. Uncertain bounds are computed and results are compared in special cases viz. with the crisp solution.

The present paper deals with nonlinear deflection analysis of hyperelastic plates rested on elastic foundation and subject to a transverse point force. For modeling of hyperelastic material, three-parameter Ishihara model has been employed. The plate formulation is based on classic plate theory accounting for von-Karman geometric nonlinearity. Therefore, both material and geometric nonlinearities have been considered based on Ishihara hyperelastic plate model. The governing equations for the plate have been derived based on Hamilton's rule and then solved via Galerkin's method. Obtained results show that material parameters of hyperelastic material play an important role in defection analysis. Also, the effects of foundation parameter and load location on plate deflections will be discussed.

The quadratic B-spline finite element method yields mass and stiffness matrices which are half the size of matrices obtained by the conventional finite element method. We solve the free vibration problem of a rotating Rayleigh beam using the quadratic B-spline finite element method. Rayleigh beam theory includes the rotary inertia effects in addition to the Euler-Bernoulli theory assumptions and presents a good mathematical model for rotating beams. Galerkin's approach is used to obtain the weak form which yields a system of symmetric matrices. Results obtained for the natural frequencies at different rotating speeds show an accurate match with the published results. A comparison with Euler-Bernoulli beam is done to decipher the variations in higher modes of the Rayleigh beam due to the slenderness ratio. The results are obtained for different values of non-uniform parameter ($\bar{n}$).

Considerable efforts are required to develop a monotone, robust and stable high-order numerical scheme for solving the hyperbolic system. The discontinuous Galerkin(DG) method is a natural choice, but elimination of the spurious oscillations from the high-order solutions demands a new development of proper limiters for the DG method. There are several available limiters for controlling or removing unphysical oscillations from the high-order approximate solution; however, very few studies were directed to analyze the exact role of the limiters in the hyperbolic systems. In this study, the performance of the several well-known limiters is examined by comparing the high-order($p^1$, $p^2$, and $p^3$) approximate solutions with the exact solutions. It is shown that the accuracy of the limiter is in general problem-dependent, although the Hermite WENO limiter and maximum principle limiter perform better than the TVD and generalized moment limiters for most of the test cases. It is also shown that application of the troubled cell indicators may improve the accuracy of the limiters under some specific conditions.

Beam-type structures with non-uniform cross sections are widely used in mechanical, architectural, and civil engineering fields. This paper deals with dynamic characteristics and vibration problems. Governing equations are first derived by using local coordinates. Their solutions are then assumed by using Galerkin's mode summation method. Bisection method is also applied in solving the determinant of the matrix which can provide natural frequencies. Whereas finite element methods adopt admissible functions satisfying only geometric boundary condition, in this study we apply Galerkin's mode summation method which uses eigen-functions satisfying both governing equations and boundary conditions. Modal analysis and experimental tests are finally performed using simply-supported beams with four different non-uniform cross-sections. Our analytical results then show good agreement with experimental ones.

A general geometrically non-linear model for lateral-torsional buckling of thick and thin-walled FGM box beams is presented. In this model primary and secondary torsional warping and shear effects are taken into account. The coupled equilibrium equations obtained from Galerkin's method are derived and the corresponding tangent matrix is used to compute the critical moments. General expression is derived for the lateral-torsional buckling load of unshearable FGM beams. The results are validated by comparison with a 3D finite element simulation using the code ABAQUS. The influences of the geometrical characteristics and the shear effects on the buckling loads are demonstrated through several case studies.

This paper attempt to explore the shape of stress wave propagation of 3-dimensional stress field which in made in the process of the time increment. A finite element program about 3-dimensional stress wave propagation is developed for investigating the changing shape of the stress by the impact load. The finite element program, which is the solution for the 3-dimensional stress wave analysis, based on Galerkin and Newmark-${\beta}$ method at time increment step. The tensile stress and compressive stress become larger with the order of the middle , the upper and the opposite layers when the impact load is applied. In a while the shear stress become larger according to the order of the upper, the middle and the opposite layers when impact load applied.

Least-squares meshfree method is presented. Conventional meshfree methods based on the Galerkin formulation suffer from inaccurate numerical integration. Least-squares formulation exhibits rather different integration-related characteristics. It is demonstrated through numerical examples that least-squares formulation is much more robust to integration errors than the Galerkin's. Therefore efficient meshfree methods can be devised by combining very simple integration algorithms and least-squares formulation.

The propagation characteristics of dielectric waveguides has been analyzed by finite element method. We have proposed the finite element formutation of the variational expression in the three-component magnetic field based on Galerkin's method which seek for the propagation constant by a given value of frequency. In this approach, the divergence relation for H is satisfied and spurious modes does not appear and finite element solustions agree with the exact solutions. In order to varify the validity of the present method the numerical results for a rectangular waveguide partilly filled with dielectric are compared with other results.
