The response of a uniform clamped-free beam driven into the inelastic range by a half-sine pulse of ground acceleration is investigated. Shock spectra are presented for the case of bilinear moment-curvature relationships. The beam is represented as a ten-lump multi-degree-of-freedom system, and the

Stress pulse propagation in a semi-infinite viscoelastic solid of the Maxwell type is analyzed. The results show that a square stress pulse loaded at the surface develops into two wave fronts. The first wave front propagates with the dilatational wave velocity, while the propagation velocity of the
Reasons for the continuing difficulty in making definitive measurements of pulse wave attenuation in elastic tubes and arteries in the presence of reflections are sought. The measurement techniques available were re-examined in elastic tubes mimicking the arterial compliance nonlinearity, under cond
The characteristics of compressive shock wave propagation in the solid phase of a cellular material are studied in the present paper using a one-dimensional mass-spring model. The unique compressive stressstrain relation of a cellular material leads to several interesting observations on the charact
