This paper is concerned with what a source precisely sees when it drives a receiver such as a continuous structural object. An equivalent lumped element system consisting of masses, springs and dampers is developed to ...

This paper studies the operational dynamics of a structure in steady state under a given source. It is based on the duality of operational structural dynamics, which states that the structure in operation can be viewed ...

We study the essential spectrum and Fredholm properties of certain integral and pseudo-differential operators associated to non-commutative locally compact groups G. The techniques involve crossed product C*-algebras. We ...

An adaptive algorithm for on-line estimation of physical coefficients of cables in viscous environment is presented. The procedure is useful for obtaining cable characteristics, which are needed in stability analysis and ...

A well-known result in the area of dynamical systems asserts that any invertible hyperbolic operator on any Banach space is structurally stable. This result was originally obtained by Hartman in 1960 for operators on ...

This paper aims to present the use of a learning object (CADILAG), developed to facilitate understanding data structure operations by using visual presentations and animations. The CADILAG allows visualizing the behavior ...
