Item A simplified model for analyzing the nonlinear dynamic response of thin plates(Texas Tech University, 1986-08) Lim, Gee LooNot availableItem Acoustic radiation from baffled planar sources: a series approach(Texas Tech University, 1999-08) Akkaya, NadirThe acoustic radiation from harmonically vibrating planar sources (pistons and thin plates) is investigated. Triangular, rectangular, circular, and elliptical sources are studied. Clamped and simply supported boundary conditions are considered for plates. The farfield acoustic pressure, the acoustic intensity, and the acoustic power expressions are obtained analytically. Two different approaches are used to find the acoustic power for some cases, and the results are compared. The intensity and power expressions are the time-averaged ones, and the latter is applicable only to sufficiently low frequency of vibrations. Finally, the dependence of the results on various design parameters, such as frequency of vibration and source geometry, is investigated.Item Comparison of stresses of layered and monolithic glass plates(Texas Tech University, 1985-08) Nagalla, Sesha RNot availableItem Extended Finite Strip Method for Prismatic Plate and Shell Structures(Texas Tech University, 1971-05) Siddiqi, Ghulan HusainNot Available.Item Geometrically nonlinear analysis of rectangular glass panels by the finite element method(Texas Tech University, 1980-05) al-Tayyib, Abdul-Hamid J.Not availableItem Nonlinear analysis of rectangular glass plates by Galerkin method(Texas Tech University, 1983-05) Ku, Fu-yuNot availableItem Nonlinear stress analysis of insulating glass units(Texas Tech University, 1986-05) Chou, Gee DavidNot availableItem On the charcterization of wakes from three-dimensional single and multiple flat plates on a ground plane(Texas Tech University, 1985-05) Barton, Gregory HaroldA flat plate is a simplified model for a heliostat, which is a large flat tracking mirror used to reflect solar energy onto a central receiving boiler in a solar collector system. This is a study of vortex shedding from 3-dimensional single flat plates on a ground plane and the modifying effect on their wakes when plates are placed upstream. The multiple plate data is characterized by the single plate wake properties based on the plate separation distance referenced to the Strouhal identity length. The new characteristic body length is simply the multiple plate separation distance which produces the same Strouhal number for single and multiple bodies. For separation distances less than the Strouhal identity length, the multiple plate characteristics are very similar to the single plate. For separation distances greater than the Strouhal identity length, a multiple plate wake scale factor is developed which transforms the streamwise wake distance from the front plate into a new streamwise coordinate.Item Stress analysis of folded plate structures with flexible end-diaphragms(Texas Tech University, 1970-05) Williamson, Frank AyersNot available
