ON A SHAPE IDENTIFICATION PROBLEM
Journal Title: ROMANIAN JOURNAL OF TECHNICAL SCIENCES - APPLIED MECHANICS - Year 2010, Vol 55, Issue 3
Abstract
An inverse method using a genetic algorithm and a quasi-Newton method is presented in this paper. We consider the problem of identifying a finite elastic airfilled hollow body of unknown shape embedded in a compressible, inviscid homogeneous fluid, based on the concept of time reversal invariance. A nonlinear model describes the acoustical signature of the scatterer. Numerical simulation is carried out for several examples to illustrate the efficiency of the method.

A VIRTUAL INTERNAL BOND MODEL FOR HYSTERETIC MEDIA
In this paper, the properties of the hysteretic media are investigated via the virtual internal bond model (VIB) derived from the hyperelasticity with the integration of the 6–12 Lennard-Jones atomic interacting potentia...
MOTION RECOVERY OF PARALLEL MANIPULATORS USING GENERALIZED INVERSE AND PARTITIONED JACOBIAN MATRIX
In this paper, the motion recovery of parallel manipulators due to joint failure is addressed. The failed joints have either zero velocities, locked joints, or nonzero velocities which are different from the desired velo...

COMPARISON OF INTERNATIONAL VEHICLE TESTING CYCLES USING SIMULATION
Over the last decades, one of the major risks faced by mankind has been the anthropogenic contribution to environmental pollution and degradation in general. This has posed a substantial burden on both human health and e...
LIMIT STRAINS VARIABILITY WITH RESPECT TO MATERIAL SCATTER
In this paper a study regarding to the effect of the variability of the mechanical parameters on the prediction of the limit strain have been presented. The necking criterion used in the analyses is the one proposed by M...
