...Sang Wook Kang; Satya N. Atluri; Sang-Hyun Kim A new formulation for the NDIF method (the nondimensional dynamic influence function method) is introduced to efficiently extract eigenvalues and mode shapes of arbitrarily shaped, homogeneous membranes with the fixed boundary. The NDIF method, which...

...N. G. Stephen Eigenvalue veering is studied in the context of two simple oscillators coupled by a (presumed weak) spring, variants of which have been considered by several authors. The concept of a center of veering is introduced, leading to a coordinate translation; a subsequent coordinate...

...Yun-Bo Yi; Mohammad A. Matin A finite element formulation is developed for solving the problem related to thermoelastic damping in beam resonator systems. The perturbation analysis on the governing equations of heat conduction, thermoleasticity, and dynamic motion leads to a linear eigenvalue...
