Vibration Suppression of Simply Supported Beam under a Moving Mass using On-Line Neural Network Controller

In this paper, model reference neural network structure is used as a controller for vibration suppression of the Euler–Bernoulli beam under the excitation of moving mass travelling along a vibrating path. The non-dimensional equation of motion the beam acted upon by a moving mass is achieved.  A Dirac-delta function is used to describe the position of the moving mass along the beam and its iner...

Evaluating of Relative and Absolute Cumulative Input Energy Time History subjected to Forward Directivity Earthquakes

In this article, to study the effect of pulse-type near-fault earthquakes on the seismic demands of steel moment frames, 15-story 2D-frame was analyzed under the influence of 20 near-fields with forward directivity effect and 2 far-field records. The relationship between Effective Cyclic Energy, ECE and displacement demands, velocity and hysteretic curve of SDOF systems in two near- and far-fau...

Dynamic Behavior Analysis of a Geometrically Nonlinear Plate Subjected to a Moving Load

In this paper, the nonlinear dynamical behavior of an isotropic rectangular plate, simply supported on all edges under influence of a moving mass and as well as an equivalent concentrated force is studied. The governing nonlinear coupled PDEs of motion are derived by energy method using Hamilton’s principle based on the large deflection theory in conjuncture with the von-Karman strain-displacem...

Development of a Moving Finite Element-Based Inverse Heat Conduction Method for Determination of Moving Surface Temperature

A moving finite element-based inverse method for determining the temperature on a moving surface is developed. The moving mesh is generated employing the transfinite mapping technique. The proposed algorithms are used in the estimation of surface temperature on a moving boundary with high velocity in the burning process of a homogenous low thermal diffusivity solid fuel. The measurements obtain...
