ON A CONTROLLED COMPOSITE SEMI-INFINITE STRIP
Journal Title: ROMANIAN JOURNAL OF TECHNICAL SCIENCES - APPLIED MECHANICS - Year 2010, Vol 55, Issue 1
Abstract
The configuration for a semi-infinite strip with self tuning based control is presented in this paper. The semi-infinite strip is composed from a layer of main material, and another layer of piezoelectric material with Cantor-like structure. We show that the displacements distribution can be controlled actively by applying a voltage to the piezoelectric material.

ON THE INFLUENCE OF DENSITY ON THE WAVE PROPAGATION IN FLUIDS
In this paper we investigate the influence of the density on the propagation of waves in fluids with exponential and cosine stratification, respectively. We show that the waves are pairs of solitons, each pair consisting...
EXPERIMENTAL AND THEORETICAL ANALYSIS OF NOVEL TELESCOPIC DEVICES FOR EARTHQUAKE PROTECTION
The telescopic SERB devices are compact mechanical devices designed for bracing isolation systems. These devices can provide important dissipation of the seismic energy and can generate the necessary force to prevent the...
DYNAMICS OF THE 3-PRP PLANAR PARALLEL ROBOT
Recursive modelling for the kinematics and dynamics of the 3-PRP planar parallel robot is established in this paper. Three identical planar legs connecting to the moving platform are located in a vertical plane. Knowing...
INVARIANT CHARACTERIZING THERMALLY ACTIVATED PLASTIC FLOW
Thermal activation leads to a reduction of the flow stress below the athermal value (the zero Kelvin flow stress). The ratio between the flow stress at a given temperature and the athermal stress (at given material struc...
