Dynamic Analysis of Semi-Rigid Frames

  • Ali Ugur Ozturk and
  • Hikmet H. Catal

The dynamic response of semi-rigid frames is studied by using a computer program. The connection flexibility is modeled by linear elastic rotational springs. Having the same geometry and cross-section; semi-rigid frames, with different spring coeffic...

IBM-1 Calculations on the Even-Even 122-128Te Isotopes

  • Atalay Küçükbursa,
  • Kaan Manisa,
  • Mehmet Çiftçi,
  • Tahsin Babacan and
  • İsmail Maraş

The 122-128Te isotopes in O(6)- SU(5) transition region were investigated. For these nuclei, the energy levels, B(E2) transition probabilities, and d(E2/M1) mixing ratios were calculated within framework of the Interacting Boson Model (IBM-1). The...

Special Two Parameter Motion

  • Murat Kemal Karacan and
  • Yusuf Yaylı

In this study all one parameter motions obtained from two parameters motion on the plane, are investigated. It is shown that the pole points which on fixed and moving plane at any position of (λ,μ) are on a line. It is also shown that the velocity ve...

Formulas for the Exponential of a Semi Skew-Symmetric Matrix of Order 4

  • Levent Kula,
  • Murat Kemal Karacan and
  • Yusuf Yaylı

In this paper the formula of the exponential matrix e A when A is a semi skew-symmetric real matrix of order 4 is derived. The formula is a generalization of the Rodrigues formula for skew-symmetric matrices of order 3 in Minkowski 3-space.
