Non-linear dynamic analysis and design concepts for RC beams under impulsive loads

DESIGN OPTIMIZATION OF RC FRAMES UNDER EARTHQUAKE LOADS

This paper deals with the optimization of reinforced concrete (RC) structures under earthquake loads by introducing a simple methodology. One of the most important problems in the design of RC structures is the existing of various design scenarios that all of them satisfy design constraints. Despite of the steel structures, a large number of design candidates due to a large number of design var...

Double zero bifurcation of non-linear viscoelastic beams under conservative and non-conservative loads

Elastoplastic Analysis of Functionally Graded Beams under Mechanical Loads

Elastic-plastic behavior of a beam made of functionally graded material is investigated in this work‎. ‎The beam is subjected to the constant axial and bending loads and the critical values of these loads for yield‎, ‎collapse and elastic-plastic conditions are obtained‎. ‎The variation of elastic modulus and yield strength through the height of the beam is determined with an exponential rule‎....
