This paper proposes an application of high performance computing (HPC) to dynamic structural response analysis (DSRA) in order to enhance the capability and increase the efficiency of integrated earthquake simulation (IES). Object Based Structural Analysis (OBASAN) is a candidate DSRA program for IES. With OBASAN, the reliability of structural damage prediction can be increased by means of more...

This paper presents a dynamic model of a planar parallel manipulator including structural flexibility of several linkages. The equations of motion are formulated using the Lagrangian equations of the first type and Lagrangian multipliers are introduced to represent the geometry of multiple closed loop chains. Then, an active damping approach using a PZT actuator is described to attenuate struct...

In this article, bending, buckling, and free vibration of viscoelastic sandwich plate with carbon nanotubes reinforced composite facesheets and an isotropic homogeneous core on viscoelastic foundation are presented using a new first order shear deformation theory. According to this theory, the number of unknown’s parameters and governing equations are reduced and also the using of shear correct...

This paper exploits a new direction of structural identification by means Neural Ordinary Differential Equations (Neural ODEs), particularly constrained domain knowledge, such as dynamics, thus forming Physics-informed ODEs, aiming at governing equations discovery/approximation. Structural problems often entail complex setups featuring high-dimensionality, or stiff which pose difficulties in th...
