ON THE EIGENFREQUENCY OPTIMIZATION OF EULER-BERNOULLI BEAMS WITH NONLOCAL DAMPING PATCHES
Journal Title: ROMANIAN JOURNAL OF TECHNICAL SCIENCES - APPLIED MECHANICS - Year 2009, Vol 54, Issue 1
Abstract
The paper discusses the bending of Euler-Bernoulli beams with external nonlocal damping patches. Unlike ordinary local damping models, the nonlocal damping force is modeled as a weighted average of the velocity field over the spatial domain, determined by a kernel function based on distance measures. The performance with respect to eigenvalues is discussed in order to avoid resonance. The optimization is performed by determining the location of patches from maximizing eigenvalues or gap between them.

NUMERICAL ALGORITHMS FOR SOLVING THE ELASTO-PLASTIC PROBLEM WITH MIXED HARDENING
The paper deals with elasto-plastic models for mixed hardening material, described by rate-type constitutive equations. In the first part of the paper update algorithms for solving rate type elastic-plastic models with m...
ON A CONTROLLED COMPOSITE SEMI-INFINITE STRIP
The configuration for a semi-infinite strip with self tuning based control is presented in this paper. The semi-infinite strip is composed from a layer of main material, and another layer of piezoelectric material with C...
HUMAN-ROBOT INTERACTION AND TRACKING USING LOW COST 3D VISION SYSTEMS
This paper describes a platform which allows humans to interact with robotic arms using augmented reality. Low cost “kinect” cameras (Xbox 360) are used for tracking human skeletons and locations of robot’s end effectors...
