The latest ASCE/SEI 7-22 Minimum Design Loads and Associated Criteria for Buildings and Other Structures standard contains some notable changes. “Structural engineers should be aware of significant ...

Aiello and Ombres [2] developed a model using FSDT to assess the optimal arrangement of hybrid laminated faces of sandwich panel for local buckling loads. Wang [49] employed the B-Spline Rayleigh-Ritz ...

We apply the well known Rayleigh–Ritz method (RRM) to the projection of a Hamiltonian operator chosen recently for the extension of the Rayleigh–Ritz variational principle to ensemble states. By means ...

Abstract: This article introduces a novel variational formula for modeling waveguides with uniformly curved longitudinal axes. Using the Rayleigh-Ritz method, we analyze the electromagnetic fields in ...

We overview the main equations of the Rayleigh–Ritz variational method and discuss their connection with the problem of simultaneous diagonalization of two Hermitian matrices.

The American Institute of Steel Construction and the Steel Joist Institute recently released a comprehensive roof design guide addressing rain loads and ponding. Design Guide 40, Rain Loads and ...
