The fluid-structure coupling process of a plunging rigid airfoil with a thin elastic plate attached at the trailing-edge is simulated numerically by using unsteady potential flow source/vortex panel method and the Euler-Bernoulli beam vibration differential equation. The flow characteristics, the unsteady aerodynamic loads, especially the thrust effects of the plunging motion are computed. The ...

in this study, the performance of shred tire mixed with railway subgrade is evaluated to reduce environmental vibrations caused by trains’ passage. since incorporating the shred tire seeds in soil affects on its shear strength and deformability parameters so, the first stage of the study was allocated to conducting a series of laboratory tests such as the unconfined compression test, and cbr an...

Introduction: Whole-Body Vibration (WBV) uses high frequency mechanical stimuli generated by a vibration plate and transmitted through bone, muscle and connective tissues to the whole body. Research has shown that long-term vibration-plate training improves neuromuscular facilitation, especially in afferent neural pathways, responsible for the conduction of vibration and proprioceptive stimuli,...

The active vibration control of smart plate equipped with patched piezoelectric sensors and actuators is presented in this study. An equivalent single layer third order shear deformation theory is employed to model the kinematics of the plate and to obtain the shear strains. The governing equations of motion are derived using extended Hamilton’s principle. Linear variation of electric potential...

The coupled vibration between an acoustic field and a plate is encountered in many engineering and industrial applications. The interaction between the wind and a windshield of a car is an interesting example found in the automobile industry. Mathematically, such an interaction is described by the coupled system of the second order scalar wave equation and the fourth order plate vibration equat...
