Effect of compressive axial load on forced transverse vibrations of a double-beam system

Based on the Rayleigh beam theory, the forced transverse vibrations of a closed double single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) system containing a fluid with a Pasternak layer in-between are investigated. It is assumed that the two single-walled carbon nanotubes of the system are continuously joined by a Pasternak layer and both sides of SWCNTs containing a fluid are closed. The dynamic responses of the system caused by arbitrarily distributed continuous loads are obtained. The effect of compressive axial load on the forced vibrations of the double single-walled carbon nanotube system is discussed for one case of particular excitation loading. The properties of the forced transverse vibrations of the system are found to be significantly dependent on the compressive axial load. The steady-state vibration amplitudes of the SWCNT decrease with increasing of length of SWCNT. Vibrations caused by the harmonic exciting forces are discussed, and conditions of resonance and dynamic vibration absorption are formulated. The SWCNT-type dynamic absorber is a new concept of a dynamic vibration absorber (DVA), which can be applied to suppress excessive vibrations of corresponding SWCNT systems.

Compressive Axial Load

The aim of this study was to evaluate the stress distribution of different retention systems (screwed, cemented, and mixed) in 5-unit implant-supported fixed partial dentures through the photoelasticity method. Twenty standardized titanium suprastructures were manufactured, of which 5 were screw retained, 5 were cement retained, and 10 were mixed (with an alternating sequence of abutments), each supported by 5 external hexagon (4.0 mm × 11.5 mm) implants. A circular polariscope was used, and an axial compressive load of 100 N was applied on a universal testing machine. The results were photographed and qualitatively analyzed. We observed the formation of isochromatic fringes as a result of the stresses generated around the implant after installation of the different suprastructures and after the application of a compressive axial load of 100 N. We conclude that a lack of passive adaptation was observed in all suprastructures with the formation of low-magnitude stress in some implants. When cemented and mixed suprastructures were subjected to a compressive load, they displayed lower levels of stress distribution and lower intensity fringes compared to the screwed prosthesis.

Compressive Axial Load

Older existing reinforced concrete (R/C) frame structures often contain shear-dominated vertical structural elements, which can experience loss of axial load-bearing capacity after a shear failure, hence initiating progressive collapse. An experimental investigation previously reported by the authors focused on the effect of increasing compressive axial load on the non-linear post-peak lateral response of shear, and flexure-shear, critical R/C columns. These results and findings are used here to verify key assumptions of a finite element model previously proposed by the authors, which is able to capture the full-range response of shear-dominated R/C columns up to the onset of axial failure. Additionally, numerically predicted responses using the proposed model are compared with the experimental ones of the tested column specimens under increasing axial load. Not only global, but also local response quantities are examined, which are difficult to capture in a phenomenological beam-column model. These comparisons also provide an opportunity for an independent verification of the predictive capabilities of the model, because these specimens were not part of the initial database that was used to develop it.
