a finite element analysis is presented for sloshing and impulsive motion of liquid-filled conical tanks during lateral anti-symmetric excitation. the performed analyses led to the development of a number of charts which can be used to identify the natural frequency, the mode shapes of conical tanks for both fundamental and the cos(θ)-modes of vibration. conical tank geometry was described with ...

In the setting of the modal logic that characterizes modal refinement over modal transition systems, Boudol and Larsen showed that the formulae for which model checking can be reduced to preorder checking, that is, the characteristic formulae, are exactly the consistent and prime ones. This paper presents general, sufficient conditions guaranteeing that characteristic formulae are exactly the c...

When a cantilever beam rotates about an axis perpendicular to its neutral axis, its modal characteristics often vary significantly. If the geometric shape and the material property of the beam are given, the modal characteristic variations can be accurately estimated following a well-established analysis procedure employing assumed mode method or finite element method. In many practical design ...

Paper presents an approximate computation of high-frequency high-voltage power-line characteristics: amplitude, phase and group delay characteristic. Analytical approximate formulae are derived for the power line with three conductors in horizontal disposition and middle-phase to ground coupling. Expressions derived from modal analysis and detailed computation methods allow analysis of power-li...

Given a place between two fields, the isotropy behaviour of Azumaya algebras with involution over the valuation ring corresponding to the place is studied. In particular, it is shown that isotropic right ideals specialise in an appropriate way. The treatment is characteristic free, and it provides a natural analogue to the existing specialisation theory for non-singular symmetric bilinear forms...

The coherence of a single-mode laser diode, under high-speed pulsed modulation, is limited by instabilities in the lasing wavelength arising from transient phenomena in the junction region of the laser. This paper reports the results of an experiment to characterize the effects of these modal instabilities on the temporal coherence of pulsed laser diodes. The primary intent of the experiment wa...

Abstract Structural damage identification technology based on modal parameters is an extremely effective monitoring method. Because of the structural characteristics conductor, with its small diameter and long span, it not easy to obtain by manual excitation. Here, a method for health conductor under wind load excitation proposed. Firstly, natural frequency change law after broken strand obtain...
