FINITE DISPLACEMENT ANALYSIS OF SPACE FRAMED STRUCTURES

Free vibration analysis of steel framed structures

This study based on free vibration analysis and study the behavior of framed structure under different frequency of vibration using ANSYS software and shaking table. A small scale uni-axial shaking table was prepared in laboratory, which can produce lower to moderate vibration, regarding frequency and velocity. Moment resisting framed structures constructed with connecting beam and column eleme...

Adaptive Finite Elements for Reinforced Concrete Framed Structures

Abstract. This work focuses on the modelling of nonlinear response of reinforced concrete structures by means of the finite element method. A new technique which employs a variable mesh in order to reduce the computational cost of classical approaches is presented. For some piecewise linear constitutive models which are widely employed for the modelling of reinforced concrete, some properties o...

Appropriate Loading Techniques in Finite Element Analysis of Underground Structures

Stability of underground structures is assessed by comparing rock strength with induced stresses resulted from ground stresses. Rock mass surrounding the opening may fail either by fracture or excessive deformation caused. Accurate calculation of induced stresses is therefore fundamental in the stability analysis of an opening. Although numerical methods, particularly finite element method, are...

A wavelet-based approach for vibration analysis of framed structures

The Space of Framed Functions

We define the notion of a "framed function" on a compact smooth manifold N and we show that the space of all framed functions on N is (dim N I)-connected. A framed function on N is essentially a smooth function N --> R with only Morse and birth-death singularities together with certain additional structure. Introduction. The purpose of this paper is to prove that the space of framed functions o...
