β¦ Synopsis
The following comments are motivated by two recent papers concerned with the vibrations and buckling of beams supported on two-parameter elastic foundations. Both papers contain a mistake in the boundary conditions corresponding to a free end in that they use the stiffness matrices for the beam-foundation system without considering the restraining action of the foundation material outside the beam. This amounts to assuming that the foundation ends abruptly at the beam end-points. The correct boundary conditions for this problem are given by Kerr.3 It is shown in References 4 and 5 that, in practice, to account for the foundation outside the span of the beam one only needs to add a concentrated spring at the free end of the beam, with

Natural frequencies and buckling stresses of a deep beam-column on twoparameter elastic foundations are analyzed by taking into account the e!ect of shear deformation, depth change (the transverse displacement w can vary in the depth direction of beam-columns) and rotatory inertia. By using the meth
## Abstract We present a new procedure for extracting generalized __S__βparameters from the 3D timeβdomain field analysis of microwave components that have ports with different and arbitrary reference impedances. The proposed approach has been implemented in the 3D TLM environment for transient cir
