Bending Solutions of Fully Clamped Orthotropic Rectangular Thin Plate Using Finite Integral Transform Method
Abstract: Plate as an engineering material is used widely in several areas of Engineering work, especially civil engineering structures as slab. This research work presents the solutions to the bending of orthotropic thin rectangular plates, fully clamped at all edges and subjected to three different loading conditions such as uniformly distributed load, centrally loaded concentrated point load and hydrostatic pressure, using the finite integral transform method. The results derived from this …

IMPACT OF CLASSICAL BOUNDARY CONDITIONS ON BERNOULLI-EULER BEAM RESTING ON PASTERNAK FOUNDATION SUBJECTED TO CONCENTRATED MOVING LOAD WITH A DAMPING TERM
Abstract: Abstract The consequences of a uniform Bernoulli-Euler beam resting on a Pasternak foundation under the action of a focussed moving load with a damping term were investigated in this paper using the merely support, clamped-clamped, and clamped-free classical boundary conditions. The Laplace transform method, the extended finite integral transform, and Struble's asymptotic methodology were used to solve the governing equation after the Dirac delta function was expressed as a Fourier …

INFLUENCE OF CONSTANT AND VARIABLE PASTERNAK FOUNDATIONS ON DAMPED SIMPLY SUPPORTED BERNOULLI-EULER BEAM UNDER MOVING LOADS
Abstract: This study presents an analytical investigation of the dynamic behavior of a simply supported uniform Bernoulli-Euler beam resting on both constant and variable Pasternak foundations subjected to concentrated moving load with damping. The governing equations of motion were formulated by incorporating the effects of foundation stiffness, shear interaction, damping, and load inertia. Analytical solutions were obtained for both moving-force and moving-mass problems. For the constant foundation case, the Generalized Finite …

Preservation to Continuity:Reconsidering Heritage Management Paradigms
Abstract: Conventional heritage management frameworks largely treat heritage as a finite collection of monuments and protected sites, prioritizing material conservation over cultural continuity. In rapidly transforming socio-urban contexts, such approaches often fail to address the dynamic relationships between heritage, lived cultural practices, and collective memory. The primary objective of this study is to develop a holistic heritage management framework that integrates tangible and intangible heritage through participatory governance and adaptive policy …

Finite Element Analysis (FEA) for Nonlinear Behavior in Advanced Materials
Abstract: (FEA) in investigating the nonlinear behavior of advanced materials plays a pivotal role in optimizing the design and performance of modern structural systems. As innovative materials, such as nanocomposites, metamaterials, and shape-memory alloys gain prominence, conventional linear modeling methods become inadequate for accurately capturing the intricate and time-dependent responses exhibited by these materials under diverse loading conditions. This research delves into cutting-edge FEA techniques to simulate and analyze the nonlinear …
