The inverse analysis provides exact closed-form expressions of position and severity of the crack as functions of deflection measurements for different boundary conditions.
The degradation of stiffness, due to the cracking of the reinforced concrete, gives information on the position and severity of the damage that has occurred.
By tuning the time delay between the two laser beams and laser energy, through-thickness damage position and severity can respectively be adjusted.
The basic problem in structural diagnostics via dynamic methods consists in determining the position and severity of a single open crack in a beam from the knowledge of a pair of resonant or antiresonant frequencies.
Here, we investigated the influence of topographic position, fire severity, and time since last fire on vegetation structure in foothill eucalypt forests, two years after a large wildfire in south-eastern Australia.
Daytime arterial blood gas analysis while in the supine position, disease severity, and the degree of respiratory difficulty (ALS Functional Rating Scale Revised, ALSFRSr) were also analyzed [20].
These questions required a fundamental premise of being able to define nasal obstruction its position and severity (Vig, 1998).
The register data did not include information on socio-economic position or severity of epilepsy; however, the majority of participants were in lower socio-economic groups reflecting the socio-demographic composition of the city, and the eventual sample comprised individuals with a range of severity and adequacy of control through anti-epileptic drugs.
The spatial distribution of chestnut size classes, canopy positions, disease severity and microsites revealed no evident groupings of these attributes.
A brief analysis of the influence of different damage positions and severities on the undamped natural frequencies and on the flexibility matrix of the structure is presented.
