The fuzzy stochastic analysis algorithm encompasses a fuzzy analysis and a stochastic analysis to deal effectively with the fuzziness and randomness characteristics of

Crash testing of bridge barriers is performed with a series of full-scale impact tests that follow the recommended guidelines of the NCHRP Report 350 or MASH to appraise

In this investigation, the analytical approach called Homotopy Analysis Method (HAM) has been successfully applied to find the most accurate analytical solution for the

The present work generalizes the reflection at the free surface studied by Sharma and Saini (2012) to the reflection-refraction phenomenon at the plane interface between

The effects of various parameters such as different boundary conditions, nonlocal parameter, Winkler and Pasternak elastic modulus, temperature and nanotube curvature on the

Based on the theories of thermal elasticity and nonlocal elasticity, Chang (2012) developed an elastic Euler-Bernoulli beam model for the thermal-mechanical vibration and
