Impact Testing and Simulation of a Crashworthy Composite Fuselage Section With Energy-Absorbing Seats and Dummies
A 25-ft/s vertical drop test of a composite fuselage section was conducted with two energy-absorbing seats occupied by anthropomorphic dummies to evaluate the crashworthy features of the fuselage section and to determine its interaction with the seats and dummies. The 5-ft. diameter fuselage section consists of a stiff structural floor and an energy-absorbing subfloor constructed of Rohacel foa...
متن کاملThe Effect of Local Damage on Energy Absorption of Steel Frame Buildings During Earthquake
Progressive collapse is a kind of failure in which whole or large part of a structure collapse when a local damage occurs and distributes to other parts. Many researchers focus on the column removal analysis and study of the structure behavior under effect of gravity loads, so these investigations are mostly carried out on the tall building. Earthquake inspections indicate structural element ca...
متن کاملModular server frame with robust earthquake retention
Adequate retention of computer systems during earthquake events is important because it can not only prevent human injury and potential system damage, but also ensure system availability by limiting to acceptable levels the transmitted accelerations to critical system components such as hard drives. This paper discusses the design of an IBM frame structure and related hardware, and the retentio...
متن کاملHybrid Simulation of a Frame Equipped with MR Damper by Utilizing Least Square Support Vector Machine
In hybrid simulation, the structure is divided into numerical and physical substructures to achieve more accurate responses in comparison to a full computational analysis. As a consequence of the lack of test facilities and actuators, and the budget limitation, only a few substructures can be modeled experimentally, whereas the others have to be modeled numerically. In this paper, a new hybrid ...
متن کاملImprovement of Solar Still Productivity by Energy Absorbing Plates
A solar still is a viable option when the demand of potable water does not exceed more than 3 litres. Enhancement in distillate output from the solar still is a main goal of many researchers all over the world. In this research, the effect of copper and aluminium plates on distillate output is investigated experimentally as well as theoretically at different water depths under the same climate ...
