in the present paper, the modal analysis on a full finite element model of an off-road vehicle. this vehicle was modeled in the catia software and then meshed in the hypermesh software. the free vibration analysis was conducted by the abaqus software. by applying an external displacement, the forced vibration analysis was also performed. as a result, natural frequencies and shape modes were ext...

the natural frequencies and mode shapes of pneumatic tires are predicted using a geometrically accurate, three-dimensional finite element modeling. tire rubber materials and cord layers are represented independently using “shell element” available in cosmos. the effects of some physical parameters such as the inflation pressure tread pattern, thickness of belts and ply angles to the natural fre...

the effect of a distributed patch mass on the natural frequency of vibration of a laminated rectangular plate with simply supported boundaries is investigated. the third order displacement field of a composite laminated rectangular plate is defined using the two variable refined plate theory. equations of motion of the plate are obtained with the help of calculus of variation. parametric study ...

This study based on free vibration analysis and study the behavior of framed structure under different frequency of vibration using ANSYS software and shaking table. A small scale uni-axial shaking table was prepared in laboratory, which can produce lower to moderate vibration, regarding frequency and velocity. Moment resisting framed structures constructed with connecting beam and column eleme...

this work presents free vibration analysis of laminated rectangular plates with classical boundary conditions based on the classical plate theory (cpt). the first involves an s-fgm plate with different boundary conditions. then involves a two-layer plate in which an s-fgm layer is coated on a homogeneous substrate with classical boundary conditions, simply called an s-fgm-coated plate; the othe...

free vibration of simply supported circular cylindrical shell made of functionally graded material (fgm) under internal pressure was investigated. the effective material properties are assumed to vary continuously along the thickness direction according to a volume fraction power law distribution. first order shear deformation theory based on love's first approximation theory was utilized in th...

in this paper, the behavior of free vibrations and buckling of the sandwich panel with a flexible core was investigated using a new improved ‎high-order sandwich panel theory. in this theory, equations of motion were formulated based on shear stresses in the core. first-order shear deformation theory was ‎applied for the procedures. in this theory, for the first time, incompatibility problem of...

in this paper vibration of ferromagnetic rectangular plates which are subjected to an inclined magnetic field is investigated based on classical plate theory and maxwell equations. levy type solution and finite element method using comsol software are used to obtain the frequency of the plate subjected to different boundary conditions, good agreements is obtained when computed results are compa...

damping of a full-scale cable with a pair of passive–on magnetorheological (mr) dampers was tested. a cable of 215.58m long with the first mode frequency of 0.658hz was tensioned horizontally in cable prefabrication factory. two mr dampers were attached to the cable in an angle in the plane perpendicularly to the cable axis in 5m length from the cable anchorage. the applied voltage level was 0v...
