Athermal random fiber networks are usually modeled by representing each fiber as a truss, a Euler-Bernoulli or a Timoshenko beam, and, in the case of cross-linked networks, each cross-link as a pinned, rotating, or welded joint. In this work we study the effect of these various modeling options on the dependence of the overall network stiffness on system parameters. We conclude that Timoshenko ...

The vibration problems of uniform and nonuniform Euler-Bernoulli beams have been solved analytically or approximately [1-5] for various end conditions. In order to calculate fundamental natural frequencies and related mode shapes, well known variational techniques such as Rayleigh_Ritz and Galerkin methods have been applied in the past. Besides these techniques, some discretized numerical metho...

in this paper, surface and piezoelectric effects on the vibration behavior of nanowires (nws) are investigated by using a timoshenko beam model. the electric field equations and the governing equations of motion for the piezoelectric nws are derived with the consideration of surface effects. by the exact solution of the governing equations, an expression for the natural frequencies of nws with ...

In this paper, a discontinuity in beams whose intensity is adjusted by the spring stiffness factor is modeled using a torsional spring. Adapting two analyses in strong and weak forms for discontinuous beams, the improved governing differential equations and the modified stiffness matrix are derived respectively. In the strong form, two different solution methods have been presented to make an a...

Für elastische Balken mit Piezoaktuatoren werden flachheitsbasierte Randsteuerungen entworfen, die eine Positionierung in endlicher Einstellzeit gestatten. Dabei werden sowohl Euler-Bernoulli-Balken als auch Timoshenko-Balken untersucht. Steuerungen für Balken mit mehreren Piezoaktuatoren werden durch Superposition berechnet. Die Methoden werden durch die Ergebnisse von Simulationen und eines E...

A Timoshenko beam equation with boundary feedback control is considered. By an abstract result on the Riesz basis generation for the discrete operators in the Hilbert spaces, we show that the closed-loop system is a Riesz system, that is, the sequence of generalized eigenvectors of the closed-loop system forms a Riesz basis in the state Hilbert space. 1. Introduction. The boundary feedback stab...

In this paper, based on Kelvin and Linear Standard Solid models, dynamic response and the buckling load of a viscoelastic beam under  lateral and axial loads have been determined. The governing equations have been extracted using Euler  and Timoshenko theories and their analytical solutions have been obtained by using the eigenfunctions expansion method. Buckling load have been calculated by us...

In this paper, the dynamic response of a simply supported beam subjected to moving load is reinvestigated.
