Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleWeighted Integration Route to Stiffness Matrix of Quadrilaterals for Speed, Accuracy and Functionally Graded Material ApplicationSubramanian G., P.V. JeyakarthikeyanA weighted integration route with robust one-point integration (hourglass-controlled) is proposed as efficient, time saving alternative to Gauss quadrature for stiffness matrix of bilinear quadrilaterals. One-point rule relies on sampling at the center of the element to linearize the geometric transformation and average the material property over it. This enables, for a given element, explicit integration of stiffness matrix yielding … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 27 Sep 2017 · 8,050 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSolution of Second Order Ordinary Differential Equation Associated with Toeplitz and Stiffness MatricesSami H. AltoumIn this work we develop a technique solution of second order ordinary differential equation (integrating by parts) to reach to Toeplitz matrices and Stiffness matrix to solve O.D.Es. We investigate that solution numerically using finite difference method and we find the error between exact and numerical solution computed using finite element. …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 8 · 30 Oct 2018 · 7,448 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTransversely Cracked Beam's Finite Elements with a Hinged EndM. Skrinar, T. PliberšekTwo new beam finite-elements to be used for the transverse displacement analysis of slender beams with transverse cracks are presented where the derivations are based on a simplified computational model. The beam stiffness matrixes are presented in symbolic forms for beams with a single transverse crack and a hinge at one of the nodes. Since in the derivations the corresponding … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2008 · 6,913 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEquivalent Torsional-Warping Stiffness of Cores with Thin-Walled Open Cross-Section Using the Vlasov Torsion TheoryTriantafyllos Konstantinos MakariosIn order to calculate the equivalent torsional-warping stiffness of the Reinforced Concrete (RC) cores that have thin-walled open cross-section, a new analytical methodology, which combines the Vlasov torsion theory with the Bernoulli bending theory, is presented herein. As the basis of the calculations, we use the principal elastic reference system of the core from this we consider that is known. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 23 May 2023 · 6,401 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Dietary Polydextrose on Clinical Signs of Canine OsteoarthritisA. C. Beynen, D. H.J. Saris, L. De Jong et al.Problem statement: Osteoarthritis is an inflammatory joint disease associated with loss of cartilage matrix. There is suggestive evidence that the intake of polydextrose fiber has anti-inflammatory activity. It was reasoned that polydextrose may have a positive influence on canine osteoarthritis. Approach: A double-blind, placebo-controlled trial with privately owned dogs was carried out to assess the efficacy of STA-LITE® polydextrose in … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 5 Oct 2011 · 9,052 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCollocation Discrete Least Squares (CDLS) Method for Elasticity Problems and Grid Irregularity Effect AssessmentM. Naisipour, M. H. Afshar, B. Hassani, A. R. FiroozjaeeA meshless approach, collocation discrete least square (CDLS) method, is extended in this paper, for solving elasticity problems and grid irregularity effect is assessed. In the present CDLS method, the problem domain is discretized by distributed field nodes. The field nodes are used to construct the trial functions. The moving least-squares interpolant is employed to construct the trial functions. Some … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 7,091 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLaboratory Diameteral Fatigue Performance of Stone Matrix Asphalt with Cellulose Oil Palm FiberRatnasamy Muniandy, Bujang B.K. HuatStone Matrix Asphalt (SMA) is a gap-graded mix that is gaining popularity worldwide. Generally, gap graded mixes are thought to be weak in fatigue resistance. In this study, cellulose fibers were pre-blended in PG64-22 binder with fiber proportions of 0.2%, 0.4%, 0.6%, 0.8% and 1.0% by weight of aggregates. The fiber-modified binder showed improved rheological properties and showed that the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2006 · 8,979 accessesView PDFCite
