On the relative efficiency in general network structures
Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is an eciency measurement tool for evaluation of similar Decision Making Units (DMUs). In DEA, weights are assigned to inputs and outputs and the absolute eciency score is obtained by the ratio of weighted sum of outputs to weighted sum of inputs. In traditional DEA models, this measure is also equivalent with relative eciency score which evaluates DMUs in compar...
متن کاملSingularities of Hinge Structures
Motivated by the hinge structure present in protein chains and other molecular conformations, we study the singularities of certain maps associated to body-andhinge and panel-and-hinge chains. These are sequentially articulated systems where two consecutive rigid pieces are connected by a hinge, i.e. a codimension two axis. The singularities correspond to a dimensional drop in the linear span o...
متن کاملParametric Study on the Nonlinear Dynamics of a Three-Stay Cable Network under Stochastic Free Vibration
Crossties and cable networks are used on cable-stayed bridges to mitigate wind-induced stay vibration. A nonlinear free-vibration analysis of a cable network with random oscillation amplitudes is presented in this study. Specifically, a nonlinear restoring-force spring model is introduced at the crosstie to simulate in-plane network free vibration at large amplitudes. The current constitutive m...
متن کاملNumerical Analysis of Cable Structures
Cable this structural element known since prehistoric times perhaps – was for many years used exclusively for mechanical engineering purposes. It has penetrated the civil engineering at the end of the 19th century thanks to the progress of the bridge engineering. [1]. Its excellent flexibility (and its related zero bending moments) and strength enable it to span very long distances with minimal...
متن کاملContinuum shape sensitivity and reliability analyses of nonlinear cracked structures
A new method is proposed for shape sensitivity analysis of a crack in a homogeneous, isotropic, and nonlinearly elastic body subject to mode I loading conditions. The method involves the material derivative concept of continuum mechanics, domain integral representation of the J-integral, and direct differentiation. Unlike virtual crack extension techniques, no mesh perturbation is required in t...
