Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy of Impact between Adjacent Structures during of Earthquake and their Effective ParametersAlireza M. Goltabar, R. Shamstabar Kami, A. EbadiIn this research, buildings with 2-15 stories and different heights were put together using GAP joint element and nonlinear time-history analyses were done for Tabas, Elcentro and Sakaria accelerographs. The responses of both impact and non-impact cases were compared. With results analyzing, we found out that the impact increased the responses in taller buildings but decreased them in shorter ones. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,785 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalytical Solution of Nonlinear Vibrating SystemsN. Tolou, I. Khatam, B. Jafari, D. D. GanjiThe responses of nonlinear vibrating systems are investigated analytically using Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM). To demonstrate the validity of the proposed method, the results obtained by HPM have been depicted graphically and have been compared with those of the exact solution. A clear conclusion can draw from the numerical results that the method provides highly accurate solutions to the discussed … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,149 accessesView PDFCite
