The Quarterly of Applied Mathematics contains original papers in applied mathematics which have a close connection with applications. An author index appears in the last issue of each volume. This ...

This course presents the fundamental principles of structural analysis, determination of reactions, internal forces and deflections under the static load conditions. The course is mainly focused to ...

In civil engineering, flexural beams are used to control the effect of vibrations that can cause cracks to appear in surfaces (concrete slabs) and beams. This is particularly important in buildings ...

Say we consider a beam made up of thin layers (laminae) aligned with the longitudinal axis of the beam, and for which the laminae can slide with respect to each other along the longitudinal axis as ...

Utilize advanced techniques to evaluate structures. Advanced analysis is necessary for structures that are complex, exhibit finite deformations, are loaded beyond their first yield point, or ...

• Most problems are nonlinear from the get-go. • Simplified load-deflection cases can help explain nonlinear (structural) FEA. Which designers need nonlinear FEA and why? Actually, projects ranging ...

The Contact stress and area problems set up like this. Picking calculation produces the outputs shown. Beam-section properties pop up with either of the beam modules, or can be accessed on its own.
