In this study, dynamic boundary element method using mass matrix is derived, using fundamental solutions for the semi-infinite domain. In constituting boundary integral equations for the dynamic equilibrium condition, inertia term in the form of domain integral is transformed into boundary integral form. Corresponding system equations are derived, and a boundary element program is developed. In addition, equations for free vibration is formulated, and eigenvalue analysis is performed. The results from the dynamic boundary element analysis for a tunnel problem are compared with those from the finite element analysis. According to the comparison, boundary element method using mass matrix is consistent with the results of finite element method. Consequently, in tunnel vibration problems, it results in reasonable solution compared with other methods where relatively higher degree of freedoms are employed.

The anisotropic-diffusion convection equation with exponentially variable coefficients is discussed in this paper. Numerical solutions are found using a combined Laplace transform and boundary element method. The variable coefficients equation is usually used to model problems of functionally graded media. First the variable coefficients equation is transformed to a constant coefficients equation. The constant coefficients equation is then Laplace-transformed so that the time variable vanishes. The Laplace-transformed equation is consequently written as a boundary integral equation which involves a time-free fundamental solution. The boundary integral equation is therefore employed to find numerical solutions using a standard boundary element method. Finally the results obtained are inversely transformed numerically using the Stehfest formula to get solutions in the time variable. The combined Laplace transform and boundary element method are easy to implement and accurate for solving unsteady problems of anisotropic exponentially graded media governed by the diffusion convection equation.

This paper proposes a model-based approach for structural damage identification and quantification. Using pseudo modal strain energy and mode shape vectors, a damage-sensitive objective function is introduced which is suitable for damage estimation and quantification in shear frames. Whale optimization algorithm (WOA) is used to solve the problem and report the optimal solution as damage detection results. To illustrate the capability of the proposed method, a numerical example of a shear frame under different damage patterns is studied in both ideal and noisy cases. Furthermore, the performance of the WOA is compared with particle swarm optimization algorithm, as one the widely-used optimization techniques. The applicability of the method is also experimentally investigated by studying a six-story shear frame tested on a shake table. Based on the obtained results, the proposed method is able to assess the health of the shear building structures with high level of accuracy.

Using artificial intelligence and internet of things methods in engineering and industrial problems has become a widespread method in recent years. The low computational costs and high accuracy without the need to engage human resources in comparison to engineering demands are the main advantages of artificial intelligence. In the present paper, a deep neural network (DNN) with a specific method of optimization is utilize to predict fundamental natural frequency of a cylindrical structure. To provide data for training the DNN, a detailed numerical analysis is presented with the aid of functionally modified couple stress theory (FMCS) and first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT). The governing equations obtained using Hamilton's principle, are further solved engaging generalized differential quadrature method. The results of the numerical solution are utilized to train and test the DNN model. The results are validated at the first step and a comprehensive parametric results are presented thereafter. The results show the high accuracy of the DNN results and effects of different geometrical, modeling and material parameters in the natural frequencies of the structure.

DQM(differential quadrature method) is applied to computation of eigenvalues of the equations of motion governing the free in-plane vibration for circular curved beams including mid-surface extension and the effects of rotatory inertia. Fundamental frequencies are calculated for the members with various end conditions and opening angles. The results are compared with numerical solutions by other methods for cases in which they are available. The differential quadrature method gives good accuracy even when only a limited number of grid points is used.

The Elzaki Transform method is fuzzified to fuzzy Elzaki Transform by Rehab Ali Khudair. In this article, we propose a Double fuzzy Elzaki transform (DFET) method to solving fuzzy partial differential equations (FPDEs) and we prove some properties and theorems of DFET, fundamental results of DFET for fuzzy partial derivatives of the n^th order, construct the Procedure to find the solution of FPDEs by DFET, provide duality relation of Double Fuzzy Laplace Transform (DFLT) and Double Fuzzy Sumudu Transform(DFST) with proposed Transform. Also we solve the Fuzzy Poisson's equation and fuzzy Telegraph equation to show the DFET method is a powerful mathematical tool for solving FPDEs analytically.

In this work, the constant average acceleration, which is a fundamental feature of the trapezoidal rule, is investigated and generalized. Using the generalization of average acceleration concept, a higher order accurate and unconditionally stable time-integration method is developed. The linear approximate of the present methods is exactly the same as the famous trapezoidal rule. To observe the accuracy and stability of the method, several numerical tests are performed and the results are compared with the results from the trapezoidal rule and the exact solution. From the numerical tests, it has been known that the present method has a higher order accuracy and unconditional stability.

The differential quadrature method (D.Q.M.) is applied to computation of eigenvalues of small-amplitude free vibration for horizontally curved beams including a warping contribution. Fundamental frequencies are calculated for a single-span, curved, wide-flange beam with both ends simply supported or clamped, or simply supported-clamped end conditions. The results are compared with existing exact solutions and numerical solutions by other methods for cases in which they are available. The differential quadrature method gives good accuracy even when only a limited number of grid points is used.

In this study, the Taylor-Galerkin method is modified to take into consideration the third order term in the Taylor series of the fundamental variable. In the Taylor-Galerkin method, after expressing the governing equation of motion in conservation form, the temporal discretization is done first and then spatial discretization follows in contrast to the conventional approaches. A predictor-corrector type algorithm has been developed previously by the same author. A new computationally efficient direct algorithm is proposed in this study. A study on convergency and accuracy of the solution is carried out. Numerical examples show that this new algorithm exhibits the same order of accuracy with less computational effort.
