Amodel for torsional vibration of slender thin-walled tubes with constrained-layer dampers is developed. Assuming that the deformation obeys the Saint-Venant hypotheses, we develop a model suitable for prediction of the complex stiffness per unit length in closed, thin-walled tubes whose walls consist of laminated elastic and viscoelastic layers, and formulate a boundary-value problem for the w...

The BEM is applied to the solution of the torsion problem of non-homogeneous anisotropic non-circular prismatic bars. The problem is formulated in terms of the warping function. This formulation leads to a second order partial differential equation with variable coefficients, subjected to a generalized Neumann type boundary condition. The problem is solved using the Analog Equation Method (AEM)...

In this paper a suitable Laplacian preconditioner is proposed for the numerical solution of the nonlinear elasto-plastic torsion problem. The aim is to determine the tangential stress in cross-sections under a given torsion, for which the physical model is based on the Saint Venant model of torsion and the single curve hypothesis for the connection of strain and stress. The proposed iterative s...

Abstract The object of this paper is the Saint-Venant torsion a solid elliptical cylinder made orthotropic homogeneous piezoelectric material. We find shape cross section which does not warp under applied torque. sizes section, has maximum value torsional rigidity for given cross-sectional area, are also determined.

We consider the numerical investigation of two hyperbolic shallow water models. We focus on the treatment of the hyperbolic part. We first recall some efficient finite volume solvers for the classical Saint-Venant system. Then we study their extensions to a new multilayer Saint-Venant system. Finally, we use a kinetic solver to perform some numerical tests which prove that the 2D multilayer Sai...

This paper presents an analytical solution for an orthotropic circular cross section bar with a magnetic coating weakened by multiple arbitrary oriented cracks under Saint-Venant torsion by means of the distributed dislocation technique. At first, the solution of the orthotropic bar with a magnetic coating weakened by a Volterra-type screw dislocation is achieved with the aid of the finite Four...

Solving the Saint-Venant equations by numerical methods like finite element and finite difference methods yields an unstable solution for a fairly large open channel. Multiple Knot B-Spline Wavelets (MKBSW) are in the class of semi-orthogonal wavelets that have compact support. Hence, these basis functions are suitable for solving the Saint-Venant equations. However, solving the Saint-Venant eq...
