  2. Structural dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_dynamics

    Dynamic loads include people, wind, waves, traffic, earthquakes, and blasts. Any structure can be subjected to dynamic loading. Dynamic analysis can be used to find dynamic displacements, time history, and modal analysis. Structural analysis is mainly concerned with finding out the behavior of a physical structure when subjected to force.

  3. Dynamic load testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_load_testing

    Dynamic load testing (or dynamic loading) is a method to assess a pile's bearing capacity by applying a dynamic load to the pile head (a falling mass) while recording acceleration and strain on the pile head. Dynamic load testing is a high strain dynamic test which can be applied after pile installation for concrete piles. For steel or timber ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_engineering_theory

    The dynamic response of a structure to dynamic loads (the natural frequency of a structure) is also dependent on its stiffness. In a structure made up of multiple structural elements where the surface distributing the forces to the elements is rigid, the elements will carry loads in proportion to their relative stiffness - the stiffer an ...

  5. Structural load - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_load

    Dead loads have small load factors, such as 1.2, because weight is mostly known and accounted for, such as structural members, architectural elements and finishes, large pieces of mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) equipment, and for buildings, it's common to include a Super Imposed Dead Load (SIDL) of around 5 pounds per square foot ...

  6. Dynamic loading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_loading

    Dynamic loading is a mechanism by which a computer program can, at run time, load a library (or other binary) into memory, retrieve the addresses of functions and variables contained in the library, execute those functions or access those variables, and unload the library from memory.

  7. Dynamic amplification factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_amplification_factor

    Dynamic Amplification Factor (DAF) or Dynamic Increase Factor (DIF), is a dimensionless number which describes how many times the deflections or stresses should be multiplied to the deflections or stresses caused by the static loads when a dynamic load is applied on to a structure.

    The macrostructures considered here may be composed of "structural elements" which material presents a "microstructure". Whether searching to limit the stress or the deformation, macrostructure, structural element and microstructure have each, a weight Vρ, when ρ is the volumic weight of materials, in N/m 3, function of the solicitations {F 0} (for "force" in général) applied to them, of ...
