To better understand ultrasonic wave propagation in thin-wall structures (e.g. glass or composite plates) and to evaluate physical properties of the structure material, n [...]

The paper presents the results of the computational modelling of the stress states in the ceramic head of the hip joint endoprosthesis. The analysed system is loaded acco [...]

Current active vibration suppression systems usually consist of piezoelectric actuators bonded to the surface or embedded within the structure. In most of these structure [...]

A 3D elastic-plastic FEM model with small strains was used for simulation of the deformation mechanics at the curved front of the planar fatigue crack growing in the thic [...]

The present contribution aims at the application of homogenization approaches to heterogeneous members subject to bending. The proposed approach is discussed with the emp [...]

This paper deals with analytical formulation of dispersion curves for stress waves in a free (001)-cut cubic and orthotropic plate. The direction of wave propagation is a [...]
