On the use of continuous wavelet analysis for modal identification
Pierre Argoul, Silvano Erlicher
This paper reviews two different uses of the continuous wavelet transform for modal identification purposes. The properties of the wavelet transform, mainly energetic, allow to emp…
A non-linear hardening model based on two coupled internal hardening variables: formulation and implementation
Nelly Point, Silvano Erlicher
An elasto-plasticity model with coupled hardening variables of strain type is presented. In the theoretical framework of generalized associativity, the formulation of this model is…
Bouc-Wen-type models with stiffness degradation: thermodynamic analysis and applications
Silvano Erlicher, Oreste S. Bursi
In this paper, a thermodynamic analysis of Bouc-Wen models endowed with both strength and stiffness degradation is provided. It is based on the relationship between the flow rules…
Pseudo-potentials and loading surfaces for an endochronic plasticity theory with isotropic damage
Silvano Erlicher, Nelly Point
The endochronic theory, developed in the early 70s, allows the plastic behavior of materials to be represented by introducing the notion of intrinsic time. With different viewpoint…
On the derivation of structural models with general thermomechanical prestress
Silvano Erlicher, F. Bourquin
The vibrating behaviour of thin structures is affected by prestress states. Hence, the effects of thermal prestress are important research subjects in view of ambient vibration mon…
Lateral vibration of footbridges under crowd-loading: Continuous crowd modeling approach
Joanna Bodgi, Silvano Erlicher, Pierre Argoul
In this paper, a simple 1D crowd model is proposed, which aim is to properly describe the crowd-flow phenomena occurring when pedestrians walk on a flexible footbridge. The crowd i…
