In this study, the aeroelastic stability and response of a swept composite wing in subsonic incompressible flow are investigated. The wing is modeled as an anisotropic tapered thin-walled beam with the circumferentially asymmetric stiffness structural configuration to establish proper coupling between bending and torsion. The structural model considers a number of nonclassical effects, such as transverse shear, material anisotropy, warping inhibition, nonuniform torsion, rotary inertia and three-dimensional strain effects. The aerodynamic strip method based on two-dimensional Wagner function in unsteady incompressible flow is used. Following the analysis, the mass, stiffness and the damping matrices of the nonconservative aeroelastic system are formed such that the extended Galerkin method and the separation of variables method can be employed. As a result, the coupled and linear governing system of dynamic equations is obtained. Then, by transforming matrices into the state-space and state-vector forms, the problem under study is finally converted into an eigenvalue problem. The flutter and the divergence speeds for various layer configurations with different geometric and material properties and fiber orientations are obtained. By solving the aforementioned equations of motion in the time domain, the aeroelastic responses of the tapered swept composite wing are computed. The obtained results are compared with the available literature.

ANALYSIS OF FRAMES WITH NONPRISMATIC MEMBERS ELMEZAINI, N; BALKAYA, C; CITIPITIOGLU, E (American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 1991-06-01) The linear elastic behavior of frames with nonprismatic members is investigated by using isoparametric plane stress finite elements. It is determined that the conventional methods of analysis for these types of structures lead to erroneous results. Comparison of the fixed end moments, stiffness, and carry-over factors of nonprismatic members available in the literature with those computed by finite element analysis reveals large discrepancies. Based on an extensive study, sources and magnitudes of errors...
Analysis of the flexural strength of prestressed concrete flanged sections Baran, Eray; French, Catherine (Precast/Prestressed Concrete Institute, 2005-01-01) Inconsistencies in the sectional response of prestressed concrete flanged sections predicted by the AASHTO LRFD and AASHTO Standard Specifications, including the maximum reinforcement limits, may arise due to different interpretations of the equivalent rectangular compressive stress block idealization. Strain compatibility analyses with nonlinear material properties were performed for a variety of non-rectangular prestressed concrete sections to identify the inconsistencies between the two specifications. R...
Effect of Shear Wall Area to Floor Area Ratio on the Seismic Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Buildings Burak Bakır, Burcu (American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2013-11-01) An analytical study is performed to evaluate the effect of shear wall area to floor area ratio on the seismic behavior of midrise RC structures. For this purpose, 24 midrise building models that have five and eight stories and shear wall ratios ranging between 0.51 and 2.17% in both directions are generated. Then, the behavior of these building models under earthquake loading is examined by carrying out nonlinear time history analyses. In the analyses, seven different ground motion records are applied to th...
Correlation of Deformation Demands with Ground Motion Intensity Yakut, Ahmet (American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2008-12-01) A comprehensive study has been carried out to investigate the correlation between maximum interstory drift demand of frame structures and a number of widely used ground motion intensity parameters. Nonlinear time-history analyses of 16 reinforced concrete frames were performed under a set of 80 ground motion records. The frames were selected to represent features of typical low- to mid-rise reinforced concrete structures. The records contained in the ground motion database were compiled from recorded ground...
Efficient energy dissipating steel-braced frame to resist seismic loads Dicleli, Murat (American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2007-07-01) In this research, the seismic performance of a proposed efficient energy dissipating steel-braced frame (EEDBF) in relation to that of a moment-resisting frame (MRF) and chevron braced frame (CBF) is studied. The frame is intended to combine the advantages of MRF and CBF and eliminate most of the disadvantages pertinent to these frames. Nonlinear static pushover, time history, and damage analyses of the three frames are conducted to assess the performance of the EEDBF compared to that of MRF and CBE The ana...
