Double-Scale Expansions for a Logarithmic Type Solution to a q-Analog of a Singular Initial Value Problem by Stéphane Malek

“…Its coefficients are polynomial in time and bounded holomorphic on horizontal strips in one complex space variable. The equation under study represents a q−analog of a singular partial differential equation, recently investigated by the author, which comprises Fuchsian operators and entails a forcing term that combines polynomial and logarithmic type functions in time. …”

Advance model for seismic base isolation Systems of building by Hossein Soleimanloo, Shakeri Soleimanloo

“…Then, we introduce new models that can consider large deformation effects and the coupling of the vertical and horizontal response during motion simultaneously. We set up some numerical experiment to evaluate our method and compare viability of the two main isolator types (i.e. sliding and elastomeric) for building. …”

Power Flow in a Two-Stage Nonlinear Vibration Isolation System with High-Static-Low-Dynamic Stiffness by Ze-Qi Lu, Dong Shao, Hu Ding, Li-Qun Chen

“…The isolation range in the power and the force transmissibility plot could be extended to the lower frequencies when the nonlinear stiffness is increased, but the rate of roll-off for the power transmissibility is twice the rate for the force transmissibility at each horizontal stiffness setting. An explanation for this phenomenon is given in the paper.…”
