Genetic algorithms (GAs) are biologically inspired computing techniques, which tend to
mimic the basic Darwinian concepts of natural selection. They are highly robust and efficient …

This monograph is planned to provide the application of the soliton theory to solve certain
practical problems selected from the fields of solid mechanics, fluid mechanics and …

The reconstruction of all nine unknown elastic moduli of orthotropic plate structures has
been achieved using a single-transmitter-multiple-receiver (STMR) compact structural health …

Reconstruction of the nine stiffness coefficients of two different composites was implemented
by inverting the measured Lamb waves phase velocities. The inversion was carried out …

Ultrasonic techniques providing fast and non-destructive method are reliable for elastic
behavior and damage characterization of polymer–matrix composite materials. In this paper …

This paper reports a Genetic Algorithm (GA) based reconstruction procedure to determine
the elastic constants of an orthotropic plate from ultrasonic velocity data. Phase velocity …

This paper presents a constrained genetic approach for reconstructing the material
properties of elastic objects. The considered reconstruction problem is ill-posed and must be …

The purpose of this paper is to explain the subharmonic generation of waves (SWG) in
piezoelectric plates with Cantor-like structure. We show that SWG is due to a nonlinear …

Разработан генетический алгоритм, занимающий промежуточное положение между
детерминированными и глобальными случайными методами поиска экстремума …

A nonlinear wave theory is used to construct an inverse approach for estimation the
micropolar elastic moduli of a micropolar plate. The analytical formulation given by this …
