Vibrational NDT with Under-sampled Data through Physics-informed Neural Networks

Olga Fink

The vibrational response of solid materials and structural components is substantially governed by their mechanical and geometrical properties. Low-frequency vibrations and modal frequencies are sensitive to global geometrical deviations, while high-freque ...

Geometric tolerances of welded connections with inelastic panel zones

Dimitrios Lignos, Andronikos Skiadopoulos, Ce Wen

Prequalified beam-to-column connections in steel moment resisting frames usually concentrate inelastic deformations in the steel beam ends. As such, nonlinear geo-metric instabilities (i.e., local buckling) may occur in these regions at modest lateral drif ...
