loads analysis
1Stress analysis — is an engineering discipline that determines the stress in materials and structures subjected to static or dynamic forces or loads (see statics and dynamics) (alternately, in linear elastic systems, strain can be used in place of stress). The aim …
2Dead and live loads — are terms used in mechanical and structural engineering, especially where analysis of real world objects is required. A load refers to any type of force exerted on an object, which may be in the form of a weight (gravitational force), a pressure …
3ROHR2 (analysis software) — ROHR2 – Static and Dynamic Pipe stress analysis softwareROHR2 is a Piping Analysis Solution, running on PCs under Microsoft Windows.The software is a product of SIGMA Ingenieurgesellschaft mbH, Unna, Germany.The basis of the brand name is the… …
4Limit loads — Limit load is the maximum load that a structure can safely carry. It s the load at which the structure is in a state of incipient plastic collapse. As the load on the structure increases, the displacements increases linearly in the elastic range… …
5Operational Loads Monitoring — (OLM) is a term given to act of investigating the characteristics of a structure in its normal operating environment. This term is often used to describe programs involving aircraft to extending their in service life in a manner that does not… …
6Seismic analysis — is a subset of structural analysis and is the calculation of the response of a building (or nonbuilding) structure to earthquakes. It is part of the process of structural design, earthquake engineering or structural assessment and retrofit (see… …
7Structural analysis — comprises the set of physical laws and mathematics required to study and predict the behavior of structures. The subjects of structural analysis are engineering artifacts whose integrity is judged largely based upon their ability to withstand… …
8Confirmatory factor analysis — In statistics, confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) is a special form of factor analysis. It is used to test whether measures of a construct are consistent with a researcher s understanding of the nature of that construct (or factor). In contrast… …
9NESSUS Probabilistic Analysis Software — For other uses of the word Nessus , please refer to Nessus. NESSUS is a general purpose, probabilistic analysis program that simulates variations and uncertainties in loads, geometry, material behavior and other user defined inputs to compute… …
10Statistical Energy Analysis — or SEA is a method for predicting vibration transmission in dynamical systems made of coupled acoustic cavities and structures. The vibrational behavior of the system is described in the energy domain. The energy is here the potential and kinetic …
