A novel approach for solving the stiffened shell structures by using an edge-based smoothed MITC3 finite element method (ES-MITC3) is presented in this paper. The ES-MITC3 efficient combining (ES-FEM) with original triangular to not only significantly improve accuracy but also overcome shear-locking phenomenon Reissner–Mindlin analysis. In study, applied and then reinforced stiffeners based on ...

Analysis of the free and forced vibration responses beams is one most critical problems to be examined in design step these structural members. The finite-element method which solves boundary value can applied efficiently problems. In this study, natural frequency damped undamped transient analyses pinned-pinned are investigated. well-known software packages, ANSYS SAP2000, used. 2-D elastic be...

In this paper, we study a semilinear Timoshenko system having two damping effects. The observation that two damping effects might lead to smaller decay rates for solutions in comparison to one damping effect is rigorously proved here in providing optimality results. Moreover the global well-posedness for small data in a low regularity class is presented for a larger class of nonlinearities than...

We study the asymptotic behavior of Timoshenko systems with memory, where the memory is given by a non-dissipative kernel and is acting only on one equation of the system. We show that the exponential stability depends on conditions regarding the decay rate of the kernel and a nice relationship between the coefficients of the system. Moreover, with full-memory effect in the system, we will show...

Continuum element sensitivity analysis (CONTESA) and system optimization (SYSOPT) for Noise, Vibration, and Harshness (NVH) have been developed and applied to automobile structures for sizing, topology, and configuration design using Mindlin plate and Timoshenko beam theories. The topology optimization has been developed using the density approach, sequential linear programming, and the adjoint...
