Dynamic Response of Machine Foundation Resting on End Bearing Piles

Dynamic Response of Multi-cracked Beams Resting on Elastic Foundation

Cracks cause to change dynamic response of beams and make discontinuity in slope of the deflection of the beams. The dynamic analysis of the Euler-Bernoulli cracked beam on the elastic foundation subjected to the concentrated load is presented in this paper. The stiffness of the elastic foundation and elastic supports influence on vibrational characteristics of the cracked beam. The Dynamic Gre...

Seismic response of end-bearing single piles

A numerical study is presented of the dynamic response of end-bearing piles embedded in a number of idealized soil deposits and subjected to vertically propagating harmonic S-waves. Results, for both 'kinematic' and 'inertial' interaction, are offered in the form of dimensionless graphs and formulae covering a wide range of excitation frequencies and of crucial material and geometric parameters...

Bending Response of Nanobeams Resting on Elastic Foundation

In the present study, the finite element method is developed for the static analysis of nano-beams under the Winkler foundation and the uniform load. The small scale effect along with Eringen's nonlocal elasticity theory is taken into account. The governing equations are derived based on the minimum potential energy principle. Galerkin weighted residual method is used to obtain the finite eleme...

Dynamic Response of Single Piles Under Lateral Loads and Earthquakes

Mesh-free Dynamic Analyses of FGM Sandwich Plates Resting on A Pasternak Elastic Foundation

This study analyzes the free vibration, forced vibration, resonance, and stress wave propagation of orthotropic sandwich plates made of functionally graded materials (FGMs). Dynamic analyses are conducted using a mesh-free method based on first-order shear deformation theory and the shape functions constructed using moving least squares approximation. The sandwich plates are rested on a Pastern...
