The optimal mechanical and geometric characteristics for layered composite structures subject to vibroacoustic excitations are derived. A Finite Element description coupl [...]

The present work shows many aspects concerning the use of the wave methodology for the response computation of periodic structures, through the use of substructures and s [...]

In the present work, the stochastic semi analytical finite element (S.S.A.F.E) method for uncertain media is formulated. This method leads to the characterisation of the [...]

The problem of the dynamic response of a structural-acoustic system in the midfrequency range is hereby considered. The system is initially modelled using finite elements [...]

Structural health monitoring of pipelines by guided waves is a technique under continuous development. It proved a relevant efficiency in defects detection in pipes. The [...]

The frequency response shows a big significance in estimating the structural response of linear systems subjected to dynamic loads. Its quantification is decided by the m [...]

This paper deals with the behavior of acoustic cavities in the mid-high frequency range. An energy method called Simplified Energy Method (MES) has already been proposed [...]
