Plastic yield and collapse mechanism of planar lattice structures

Plastic collapse of lattice structures under a general stress state

We present a numerical minimization procedure to determine the macroscopic ‘plastic collapse strength’ of a tessellated cellular structure under a general stress state. The method is illustrated with sample cellular structures of regular and hierarchical honeycombs. Based on the deformation modes found by minimization of plastic dissipation, closed-form expressions for strength are derived. The...

effect of seed priming and irrigation regimes on yield,yield components and quality of safflowers cultivars

این مطالعه در سال 1386-87 در آزمایشگاه و مزرعه پژوهشی دانشگاه صنعتی اصفهان به منظور تعیین مناسب ترین تیمار بذری و ارزیابی اثر پرایمینگ بر روی سه رقم گلرنگ تحت سه رژیم آبیاری انجام گرفت. برخی از مطالعات اثرات سودمند پرایمینگ بذر را بر روی گیاهان مختلف بررسی کرده اند اما در حال حاضر اطلاعات کمی در مورد خصوصیات مربوط به جوانه زنی، مراحل نموی، عملکرد و خصوصیات کمی و کیفی بذور تیمار شده ژنوتیپ های م...

Lattice Structures from Planar Graphs

The set of all orientations of a planar graph with prescribed outdegrees carries the structure of a distributive lattice. This general theorem is proven in the first part of the paper. In the second part the theorem is applied to show that interesting combinatorial sets related to a planar graph have lattice structure: Eulerian orientations, spanning trees and Schnyder woods. For the Schnyder w...

PLASTIC ANALYSIS OF PLANAR FRAMES USING CBO AND ECBO ALGORITHMS

In rigid plastic analysis one of the most widely applicable methods that is based on the minimum principle, is the combination of elementary mechanisms which uses the upper bound theorem. In this method a mechanism is searched which corresponds to the smallest load factor. Mathematical programming can be used to optimize this search process for simple fra...
