Dynamics of mechanisms with elastic bodies
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
Belt drive mechanisms are alternatives to robotic actuators to obtain complex repetitive motions by simple actuation. By simply changing the dimensions of the mechanism, we can obtain different kinds of trajectories for ...
Turbulent heat transfer in rotating rectangular cooling channels with angled ribs and dimples
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
An investigation into determining the effect of rotation on heat transfer in smooth, rib-roughened, and dimpled rectangular channels with aspect ratio of 4:1 is detailed in this thesis. Internal cooling channels are ...
Buckling and vibration of orthotropic plates with an internal line hinge
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
This study presents analytical solutions for the buckling and vibration of uniaxially/biaxially loaded orthotropic thin and thick rectangular plates with an internal line hinge. The plate is taken to be flat, rectangular, ...
The formulation and computer implementation of element-free Galerkin method for Euler-Bernoulli beam theory
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
Element-free Galerkin (EFG) method is used to solve second and fourth-order one-dimesional problems. Moving least square (MLS) approximation is used to generate shape functions for the EFG model. MLS method is discussed ...
