When a tube is oscillated at a resonant frequency, acoustic variables such as density, velocity, and pressure undergo very large perturbation, often described as nonlinear oscillation. In order to analyze these phenomena, nonlinear governing equation has been drived and solved numerically. Numerical simulations were accomplished to study the effect of the tube shape on the maximum pressure we can obtain. The tubes of cylindrical, conical, and cosine-shape, which have same volume and length, were investigated. Results show that the resonant frequency and patterns of pressure waves strongly depend on not only the tube shape but also the amplitude of driving acceleration. The degree of non-linearity of wave patterns was also measured by the newly defined nonlinear energy ratio of the pressure signals. It was found that the 1/2 cosine-shape tube is more suitable to induce high compression ratio than other shapes.

A magnetosonic wave is a longitudinal wave propagating perpendicularly to the magnetic fields and involves compression and rarefaction of the plasma. Lee and Kim (2000) investigated the theoretical solution for the evolution of nonlinear magnetosonic waves in the homogeneous space which adopt the approach of simple waves. We confirm the solution using a one-dimensional MHD code with Total Variation Diminishing (TVD) scheme. Then we apply the solution for the solar wind profiles. We examined the properties of nonlinear waves for the various initial perturbations at near the Lagrangian (L1) point. Also we describe waves steepening process while the shock is being formed by assuming different timescales for a driving source.

In this study, dynamic characteristics of catenary that supplies electrical power to high-speed trains is investigated. A particular emphasis is placed on the effect of droppers on the dynamic response of the contact wire, a dropper is an element that connects the contact wire with the messenger wire so as to maintain near uniform compliance, Finite element model compressing 3 spans is constructed. For the linear model, droppers are modeled as linear springs with various stiffness values. Modal analysis is performed to obtain the natural frequencies and modes and the variation in the modal density distribution for changing stiffness values are noted. Impulse response is also obtained through computer simulation. In practice, dropper is a nonlinear element with low stiffness in compression and high stiffness in tension. Hence, dropper can be modeled as a nonlinear spring with hi-directional stiffness values. Impulse and harmonic responses are obtained for the nonlinear model through simulation. The responses aye also compared with the linear cases.

According to former studies, the mechanical properties of reinforced concrete filled tubular steel (RCFT) columns differed greatly from that of concrete filled steel tubular (CFT) columns because of interaction of inserted reinforcement in RCFT. Employing an experiment-based verification policy, a general FE nonlinear analysis model was developed to analyze the mechanical behavior and failure mechanism of RCFT columns under uniaxial compression. The reasonable stress-strain relationships were suggested for confined concrete, reinforcements and steel tube in the model. The mechanism for shear failure of concrete core was found out in the numerical simulation, and a none-conventional method and equation for evaluating the confinement effect of RCFT were proposed.

High Tensile Steel enables to reduce the plate thickness comparing to the case when Mild Steel is used. From the economical view point this is very preferable since the reduction in the hull weight. However to use the High Tensile Steel effectively the plate thickness may become thin so that the occurrence of buckling is inevitable and design allowing plate buckling may be necessary. If the inplane stiffness of the plating decreases due to buckling, buckling may be necessary. If the inplane stiffness of the plating decreases due to buckling the flexural rigidity of the cross section of a ship's hull also decreases. this may lead to excessive deflection of the hull girder under longitudinal bending. In these cases a precise estimation of plate's behavior after buckling is necessary and nonlinear analysis of isolated and stiffened plates is required for structural system analysis. In this connection this paper discusses nonlinear behaviour of thin plate under thrust. Based on the analytical method elastic large deflection analysis of isolated plate is perform and simple expression are derived to evaluate the inplane rigidity of plates subjected to uniaxial compression.

A geometric and material nonlinear finite element analysis is developed for the layered elastomeric bearings. In this study, a mixed variational approach with separate variables is used to describe the displacement and volume change of rubber. To represent finely deformed behavior, Kirchoff stress tensors are used and converted Eulerian stress tensors to describe real physical meanings. Newton's method is utilized to solve the governing nonlinear finite element equations. Numerical test are performed in the case of compression and shear to verify the theory and to illustrate the application of this analysis. And the results of this study were compared to the results of Moore's discrete finite element analysis.

In this thesis, a nonlinear compression fitting method was studied for each frequency channel of a 64 channel digital hearing aid. Unlike conventional fitting formula method done from the result of the hearing loss test, the present fitting method uses the auditory threshold of sound pressure measured near the tympanic membrane while ITE (In-The-Ear) hearing aid is fitted into the user's ear canal. Also, the spectral distribution of the voice sound pressure was used for realizing of output sound pressure compression curves against input sound pressure level. Theoretical research results of FFT-iFFT compression algorithm has been evaluated by experimental gain measurements at each different input sound pressure level 50 dB, 70 dB, 90 dB respectively.

In this study, compression and shear characteristics of laminated rubber bearings and lead rubber bearings with various parameters are investigated by using material and geometric nonlinear three-dimensional finite element analysis. Rubber coupon tests are performed to make a model of the laminated rubber bearings. In addition, the material constants of the rubber are calculated by the curve fitting process of stress-strain relationship. The finite element analysis and experimental tests of the laminate rubber bearings are used to verify the validity of the rubber material constants. It is seen that the compression behavior of the laminated rubber bearings and lead rubber bearings mainly varies depending on the first shape factors and their shear behavior significantly varies depending on the second shape factors. In addition, the horizontal stiffness and energy dissipation capacity of lead rubber bearing are increased when the diameter of a lead bar is increased.
