High Frequency Analysis of Circular Arches.

Abstract

This report presents the theory of the dynamic response of a linearly elastic, circular arch, including the effects of both shear deformation and rotary inertia. The arch central angle is arbitrary, and the end restraints are linearly elastic. The theory is extended to include linear viscoelastic behavior, in which both arch and end restraints are governed by the same single linear rate sensitivity parameter.
