Sentence examples for defined damage from inspiring English sources
A fully-coupled seismic risk or safety assessment of a structural system, and its accompanying analysis of uncertainty, provides estimates of the annual probability of exceeding pre-defined performance levels, defined either in terms of structural responses or more qualitatively defined damage states.
Fatigue treatment of carbon fibre reinforced plastics (CFRP) laminates were performed to create defined damage states.
In this regard, considering appropriately defined damage measures structural system related fragility curves are determined at a low computational cost as well.
The defined damage index is applied to damage assessment of a rotor and the bearing, and the result validates its effectiveness for damage assessment of machinery component.
The purpose of the present study was to determine the nature and area of damage in fibre metal laminates subjected to low-velocity impact using a numerical model based on defined damage criteria in relation to executed experimental tests.
The black line is the capacity curve; the multi-colored piecewise linear line corresponds to the new defined damage index.
The constitutive models defining damage initiation by particle cracking and interfacial decohesion were developed and incorporated into finite element models.
The error between the estimated strain maps and measured strains is extracted to define damage detection features that are dependent on the selected shape functions.
This paper deals with an inverse technique, based on a multi-objective optimization, for the identification of model parameters defining damage and failure mechanisms in composite materials.
This discrepancy due to incomplete time invariance can be exploited as a new method for characterizing damage by defining damage indices that quantify the departure from time reversal invariance.
To this aim, full field experimental data obtained from crack initiation monitored by digital image correlation is used to construct a traction-separation law and to define damage initiation parameters.
