Nowadays, the interest of aerospace and automotive industries on virtual testing of medium-frequency vibrational behavior of shallow shell structures is growing. The development of software capable of predicting the vibrational response in such frequency range is still an open question because classical methods (i.e., FEM, SEA) are not fully suitable for the medium-frequency bandwidth. In this context the Variational Theory of Complex Rays (VTCR) is taking place as an ad-hoc technique to address medium-frequency problems. It is a Trefftz method based on a weak variational formulation. It allows great flexibility because any shape function that satisfies the governing equations can be used. This work further develops such theory. In particular, orthotropic materials are introduced in the VTCR formulation for shallow shell structures. A significant numerical example is proposed to show the strategy.

This study proposed a new and efficient 2D damage-plasticity model within the framework of Isogeometric analysis (IGA) for the geometrically nonlinear damage analysis of concrete. Since concrete exhibits complicated material properties, two internal variables are introduced to measure the hardening/softening behavior of concrete in tension and compression, and an implicit gradient-enhanced formulation is adopted to restore the well-posedness of the boundary value problem. The numerical results calculated by the model is compared with the experimental data of three benchmark problems of plain concrete (three-point and four-point bending single-notched beams and four-point bending double-notched beam) to illustrate the geometrical flexibility, accuracy, and robustness of the proposed approach. In addition, the influence of the characteristic length on the numerical results of each problem is investigated.

The multiple cooperating robot system plays an important role in the research of modern manufacturing system as the emphasis of production automation is more on the side of flexibility than before. While the kinematic and dynamic analysis of a single robot is performed as an open-loop chain, the dynamic formulation of robot in a multiple cooperating robot system differs from that of a single robot when the multiple cooperating robots form a closed kinematic chain holding an object simultaneously. The object may be any type from a rigid body to a multi-joint linkage. The mobility of the system depends on the kinematic configuration of the closed kinematic chain formed by robots and object, which also decides the number of independent input parameters. Since the mobility is not the same as the number of robot joints, proper constraint condition is sought. The constraints may be such that : the number of active robot joints is kept the same as mobility, all robot joints are active and have interrelations between each joint forces/torques, two robots have master-slave relation, or so on. The dynamic formulation of system is obtained. The formulation is based on recursive dual-number screw-calculus Newton-Eulerian approach which has been used for single robot analysis. This new scheme is recursive and compact symbolically and may facilitate the consideration of the object in real time.

Using the Mindlin-Reissner plate theory, many quadrilateral plate bending elements have been developed so far to analyze thin and moderately thick plate problems via displacement based finite element method. Here new formulation has been made to analyze thin and moderately thick plate problems using force based finite element method called Integrated Force Method (IFM). The IFM is a novel matrix formulation developed in recent years for analyzing civil, mechanical and aerospace engineering structures. In this method all independent/internal forces are treated as unknown variables which are calculated by simultaneously imposing equations of equilibrium and compatibility conditions. In this paper the force based new bilinear quadrilateral plate bending element (MQP4) is proposed to analyze the thin and moderately thick plate bending problems using Integrated Force Method. The Mindlin-Reissner plate theory has been used in the formulation of this element which accounts the effect of shear deformation. Standard plate bending benchmark problems are analyzed using the proposed element MQP4 via Integrated Force Method to study its performance with respect to accuracy and convergence, and results are compared with those of displacement based 4-node quadrilateral plate bending finite elements available in the literature. The results are also compared with the exact solutions. The proposed element MQP4 is free from shear locking and works satisfactorily in both thin and moderately thick plate bending situations.

This paper presents an LMI-based method to design a integral sliding mode controller for a class of uncertain systems. Using LMIs we derive an existence condition of a sliding surface. And we give a switching feedback control law. Our method is a generalization of the previous integral sliding mode control design methods. Since our method is based on LMIs, it gives design flexibility for combining various useful design criteria that can be captured in the LMI-based formulation.

In this paper the liquid sloshing effects in rectangular liquid stroage structures under earthquake loadings are studied. The study focuses on the investigation of the effect of the flexibility of the stroage wall. The storage structure is modelled using beam elements. The motion of the liquid is expressed by the Laplace equation. The equation of motion is formulated including the coupling between the wall motion and the sloshing motion. Seismic analyses have been carried out utilizing the response spectra method.

In this paper, we present a unified approach for the control of manipulator motions and active forces based on the operational space formulation. The end-effector dynamic model is used in the development of a control system in which the generalized operational space end-effector forces are selected as the command vector. A "generalized position and force specification matrix" is used for the specification of space of motions and forces in which manipulator is to be controlled. Flexibility in the force sensor, end-effector, and environment are discussed.discussed.

Radio-frequency(RF) weldable polyurethane-coated fabric was prepared by knife coating of presetted and cire-finished nylon fabric using optimized coating formulation including RF-sensitive commercial polyurethane resins. The physical properties, adhesion strength, peeling strength, abrasion strength, flexibility, and hydrostatic water resistance of the prepared coated fabric were good enough to show no significant difference with regular coating. Additionally the prepared coated fabric had silky and soft touch without tackiness.

탄성파 수치 모형 계산에 있어서 다양한 방법들이 개발되어 적용되었다. 최근에는 특히 탄성파 수치 모형 계산에 있어 혁신적인 방법인 SEM (Spectral Element Method)가 개발되어 사용되어 왔다. 이 방법은 지형을 자유롭게 표현하는데 있어 유연한 유한요소법의 장점에 정확성을 높인 방법이다. 일반적으로 Weak Formulation 형태의 파동방정식에 육면체 요소와 Gauss-Lobatto-Legendre 적분법을 적용한 방법이 널리 사용된다. 일반적인 SEM에서는 PML (Perfectly Matched Layer)경계조건을 적용하기 어려워 속도-응력 변분식으로 파동방정식을 변경하였다. CFS-PML (Complex frequency Shifted PML)경계조건을 ADE (Auxiliary Differential Equation)방정식으로 변경하여 속도-응력 파동방정식에 적용함으로써 분리할 필요가 없는 PML을 적용한 SEM 수치 모형 계산 알고리듬을 구현하였다. 1차원 수치모형과 3차원 수치모형 실험을 통하여 SEM에 적용한 비분리 CFS-PML이 유한경계에서 인공적으로 반사되는 반사파를 효과적으로 제거하는 것을 확인하였다.
