In this work we designed and manufactured a novel magnetorheological (MR) fluid damper with internal pressure control. Previous authors’ works showed that the yield stress ?B of MR fluids depends both on the magnetic field intensity and on…
This paper proposes a methodology to evaluate and optimize the dynamic response of tall buildings under wind loading, controlled through semi-active Magneto-Rheological dampers (MR dampers). For this, a tall building, modeled as a 2D…
Numerical techniques have been widely applied in many recent works to investigate micro-scale behavior of materials. This work focuses on the analysis of strain localizations in a Nickel-based alloy, Haynes 230. Numerical models and…
Over the last two decades, piezoelectric actuators have emerged as a promising solution for structural repair. In this work, initially the stress intensity factor (SIF) estimation using the finite element (FE) approach at crack tips in…
A need to timely reveal operational damages and technological defects requires a prompt control of states of structures made from composite materials and their consequent repairs aimed at service life extension. This work is devoted to the…
