Free vibration characteristics of continuous grading fiber orientation (CGFO) beams resting on variable Winkler and two-parameter elastic foundations have been studied. The beam is under different boundary conditions and assumed to have arbitrary variations of fiber orientation in the thickness direction. The governing differential equations for beam vibration are being solved using Generalized...

linear parameter varying control for engineering applications What to say and what to do when mostly your friends love reading? Are you the one that don't have such hobby? So, it's important for you to start having that hobby. You know, reading is not the force. We're sure that reading will lead you to join in better concept of life. Reading will be a positive activity to do every time. And do ...

The multi-point values of an appropriate smoothing parameter of HP-filter algorithm for midterm electricity load demand (MELD) forecasting are proposed. The case study employs the data based on the organization of the Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT). The research shows the growth at rate of weather and economic factors influencing to the electricity demand. The main focus of...

System identi…cation has played an increasingly dominant role in a wide range of engineering applications. While linear system’s theory is mature, nonlinear system identi…cation remains an open research area in recent years. This thesis develops a new, e¢ cient and systematic approach to the identi…cation of nonlinear dynamic systems using wavelet based State Dependent Parameter (SDP) models, f...

the uniaxial compressive strength (ucs) of intact rocks is an important geotechnical parameter required for designing geotechnical and mining engineering projects. obtaining accurate estimates of the rock mass ucs parameter throughout a 3d geological model of the deposit is vital for determining optimum rock slope stability, designing new exploratory and blast boreholes, mine planning, optimizi...
