β¦ Synopsis
This paper develops an experimentally efficient procedure that allows the determination of the location of the nodes and antinodes of a complicated structure. The approach is based on attaching a virtual element, either a virtual lumped mass or a virtual grounded spring, to the system of interest and analyzing the free vibration of the assembled system as a function of the location or co-ordinate of the virtual element. When the frequency curves of the assembled system are plotted against the constraint location of the virtual element, the nodes and antinodes of the structure of interest can be extracted by examining the minima or maxima of the curves. For the virtual lumped mass, the nodes and antinodes correspond to the maxima and minima of the frequency curves, respectively, while for the virtual spring, they correspond instead to the minima and maxima of the frequency curves.

Recently, in this journal an interesting study was published [1] which developed a procedure that allows the determination of the location of the nodes and anti-nodes of a complicated structure. The basis of the method is to attach a virtual element (lumped mass or a grounded spring) to the system a
## Abstract This paper presents an approximate calculation methodology of the occupancy distribution and the blocking probability in a virtual circuit switching node with multiβrate unicast and multicast traffic streams. Particular traffic streams are generated by an infinite as well as by a finite
This paper addresses recurrent neural architectures based on bifurcating nodes that exhibit chaotic dynamics, with local dynamics defined by first order parametric recursions. In the studied architectures, logistic recursive nodes interact through parametric coupling, they self organize, and the net
