Cold formed steel shear panel is one of the main components to bearing lateral load in low and mid-rise cold formed steel structures. This paper uses finite element analysis to evaluate the stiffness, strength and failure mode at cold formed steel shear panels whit steel sheathing and nonlinear connections that are under monotonic loading. Two finite element models based on two experimental model whit different failure modes is constructed and verified. It includes analytical studies that investigate the effects of studs and steel sheathing thickness changes, fasteners spacing at panel edges, one or two sides steel sheathing and height-width ratio of wall on the lateral load capacity. Dominant failure modes include buckling of steel sheet, local buckling in boundary studs and sheet unzipping in the bottom half of the wall.

In this paper, thermal vibration behavior of nanoscale beams made of functionally graded (FG) materials subjected to various types of thermal loading are investigated. A Reddy shear deformation beam theory which captures both the microstructural and shear deformation effects without the need for any shear correction factors is employed. Material properties of FG nanobeam are assumed to be temperature-dependent and vary gradually along the thickness according to the power-law form. The influence of small scale is captured based on nonlocal elasticity theory of Eringen. The nonlocal equations of motion are derived through Hamilton's principle and they are solved applying analytical solution. The comparison of the obtained results is conducted with those of nonlocal Euler-Bernoulli beam theory and it is demonstrated that the proposed modeling predict correctly the vibration responses of FG nanobeams. The effects of nonlocal parameter, material graduation, mode number, slenderness ratio and thermal loading on vibration behavior of the nanobeams are studied in detail.

The dynamic analysis of a plate with non-linearity due to large deformation was investigated in this study. There have been many theoretical and numerical analyses of the non-linear dynamic behavior of plates examining theoretically or numerically. The problem is how correctly an analytical model can represent the dynamic characteristics of the actual system. To address the issue, the continuous-time system identification technique was used to generate non-linear models, for stiffness and damping terms, and to explain the observed behaviors with single mode assumption after comparing experimental results with the numerical results of a linear plate model.

One of the important subjects in fracture mechanics study is to analyze the stress intensity factor. In this paper, the stress intensity factor in Mode I ($K^{I}$) is determined by J-integral using the finite element method. In this investigation, the values of $K^{I}$ are computed for distorted and undistorted elements of 8-noded isoparametric finite elements. The numerical results obtained are summarized as follows. (1) Through a relatively coarse mesh, the $K^{I}$ values obtained by this method are fairly good accuracy. (2) The $K^{I}$ values for the distorted elements appear to be better than those obtained using the undistorted mesh. (3) Within the limits of these analyses, the solutions obtained through the integral paths in the medium region of elements approach to the analytical solution most closely.

Single-phase diode bridge rectifiers with dc filter capacitor usually operate in discontinuous mode and generate large amounts of harmonic currents. This paper presents a precise harmonic analysis of the line side current in the case that both the filter inductor and the filter capacitor are not infinite. The analytical expressions of the line side performance parameters associated with harmonics are derived. The curves that show the relationship of these parameters associated with harmonics are derived. The curves that show the relationship of these parameters as the functions of circuit parameters are illustrated. By simulation the results are verified to be accurate and the conclusion clearly reveals the relations between the line side performance parameters and circuit parameters.

Vibrations and noise in electrical machines are directly related to the characteristics of the radial forces on one hand, and mechanical behavior on the other [1, 4]. The characteristics of these forces depend on the air gap flux density, which is also influenced by other factors, such as stator slots and poles, saturation level, winding type, and certain faults. The aim of this work is to investigate the effect of eccentricity and demagnetization faults on electromagnetic noise generated by the external surface of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machine [PMSM]. For this purpose, an analytical electromagnetic vibroacoustic model is developed. The results confirm the effect of eccentricity and demagnetization fault in generating some low modes radial forces.

This paper is studied on a novel buck-boost isolated converter for high efficiency and high power factor. The switching devices in the proposed converter are operated by soft switching technique using a new quasi-resonant circuit, and are driven with discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) according to pulse width modulation (PWM). The quasi-resonant circuit makes use of a step up-down inductor and a loss-less snubber capacitor. The proposed converter with DCM also simplifies the requirement of control circuit and reduces a number of control components. The input ac current waveform in the proposed converter becomes a quasi sinusoidal waveform in proportion to the magnitude of input ac voltage under constant switching frequency. As a result, it is obtained by the proposed converter that the switching power losses are low, the efficiency of the converter is high, and the input power factor is nearly unity. The validity of analytical results is confirmed by some simulation results on computer and experimental results.

There are so many types of construction equipment. Excavator is one of typical construction equipment which is working under the tough and severe environments. It's important for engineers to design CE components by the vibration durability point of view. Traditionally, two typical vibration durability methods to verify the durability of components. The first is experimental method which is using the vibration durability test bench. But experimental approach on vibration durability is needed a lot of cost and time. The second is analytical method which is using the vibration durability analysis such as Dirlik, Stainberg, Lalanne and others methodologies. The one of main advantages on vibration durability analysis can reduce the cost and time. We present a vibration durability analysis process and methodology on the guardrail system in excavator.

In fracture problems, stress intensity factors obtained theoretically and experimentally have been effectively utilized in the analytical evolution of the cracks effect.

In this paper, the variability of modal properties caused by temperature effects is assessed to adjust modal data used for frequency-based damage detection in plate-girder bridges. First, experiments on model plate-girder bridges are described. Next, the relationship between temperature and natural frequencies is assessed and a set of empirical frequency-correction formula are analyzed for the test structure. Finally, a frequency-eased method is used to locate and estimate severity of damage in the test structure using experimental modal data which are adjusted by the frequency-correction formula. Here, local damage in beam-type structures is detected by using measured frequencies and analytical mode shapes.
