This paper is the last of a series of two, where we study the asymptotics of the displacement in a thin clamped plate as its thickness tends to 0. In Part I, relying on the structure at innnity of the solutions of certain model problems posed on unbounded domains, we proved that the combination of a polynomial Ansatz (outer expansion) and of a boundary layer Ansatz (inner expansion) yields a co...

The loading response of shell structures depends on their shapes. The individual shape behaves uniquely to the loading, and different shapes give different load displacement graphs. If these geometries are combined, then their load displacement graphs can be different. It may happen that their combined behavior can be harnessed to be used as better energy absorber in a controlled manner, which ...

In this manuscript, by using the semigroup theory, well-posedness and exponential stability for a Rao-Nakra sandwich beam equation with internal damping time delay is proved. The system consists of two wave equations longitudinal displacements top bottom layers, one Euler-Bernoulli transversal displacement. To best our knowledge from literature , time, no attention was given to asymptotic model...

Over five years after the “triple disaster” of an earthquake, a tsunami, and the subsequent nuclear accident at the Fukushima Daiichi power plant that devastated Japan’s Tohoku region on March 11th, 2011, reconstruction is still progressing slowly. The difficulties are unprecedented and vast in scope: over 400 communities in 62 municipalities are affected in six different prefectures, along hun...

A top-down clamped-clamped beam integrated in a CMOS technology with a cross section of 500 nm × 280 nm has been electrostatic actuated and sensed using two different transduction methods: capacitive and piezoresistive. The resonator made from a single polysilicon layer has a fundamental in-plane resonance at 27 MHz. Piezoresistive transduction avoids the effect of the parasitic capacitance ass...

Electric field induced by charge oscillation has been investigated by simulation of the electric field distribution using the finite-difference frequency-domain method. In addition, the electric field was induced by spatial oscillation of a sample to which a DC voltage was applied. The simulation and evaluation of the electric field verified that the efficiency for inducing the electric field h...

A novel nanoscale etch process of metallic structures, the metal peel-off method(MPOM), is developed. The etching area can be defined photolithographically on the exposed substrate. Utilizing galvanic displacement as well as selective etching process after photolithographic process, we simply and uniformly achieve self-controlled etch rate of 32.2±2.1nm/times through whole wafer level. MPOM pro...

We investigate the computing power of a restricted class of DNA strand displacement structures: those that are made of double strands with nicks (interruptions) in the top strand. To preserve this structural invariant, we impose restrictions on the single strands they interact with: we consider only two-domain single strands consisting of one toehold domain and one recognition domain. We study ...

To explore the difference in impact of transverse bracing on seismic effect through concrete-filled steel tube arch bridges with non-isolated and earthquake-isolated, nine earthquake-isolated structural models under different cross-bracing arrangements were established, Elcentro waves selected. The internal force, displacement, velocity, absolute acceleration, relative separation ribs each mode...
