Effects of Structural Damage on Dynamic Behavior at Sandwich Composite Beams – Part II- FEM Analysis
Journal Title: Analele Universitatii "Eftimie Murgu" Resita. Fascicula de Inginerie - Year 2014, Vol 21, Issue 1
Abstract
This paper presents results obtained by modal analysis on composite beam like structures in healthy and damaged state. The aim is to obtain damage “signatures” for all possible damage scenarios and to use these data to assess transversal cracks based on vibration techniques, by involving natural frequency shifts. The analysis was performed in SolidWorks software for a five-layer composite, 20 vibration modes being obtained by numerical simulation.

Evaluation of Hydraulic Loads on the Runner Blades of a Kaplan Turbine using CFD Simulation and Model Test
CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamic) is today a standard procedure for analyzing and simulating the flow through several hydraulic machines. In this process, the fluid flow domain is divided into small volumes where the gov...
Long Silver Nanowires Synthesis by Pulsed Electrodeposition
Silver nanowires were pulse electrodeposited into nanopore anodic alumina oxide templates. The effects of continuous and pulse electrodeposition waveform on the microstructure properties of the nanowire arrays were studi...
Performance Evaluation of an Egusi-melon Washing Machine
Traditionally, woven basket in the flowing water stream with heaps of melon balls at the washing site is being employed in washing of Egusi-melon seeds in most local settings in Nigeria. This traditional melon washing me...
Considerations on Seismic Design of Installations using Natural Gas Fuel
