Rolling without Slip on a Transversely Isotropic Thermoelastic Half-space

Rolling without slip by a rigid cylinder on a transversely isotropic, coupled thermoelastic half-space at constant subcritical speed is studied. The cylinder is of infinite length, surface heat convection is neglected, and a dynamic steady state of plane strain is treated. The unmixed problem of traction applied to a translating surface strip is addressed first. A robust asymptotic form of the exact transform solution, valid when Fourier heat conduction dominates any thermal relaxation effect, is extracted, and inverted analytically. Use of material characterization and identification of parameters that vanish in the isotropic limit or are invariant under an isothermal–thermoelastic transformation result in compact full-field solutions. These expressions are used to construct analytical solutions that satisfy the mixed boundary value problem and auxiliary conditions of rolling contact. For the hexagonal material zinc, calculations are made for contact zone width and temperature increases near onset of zone yield.

Effect of friction on subsurface stresses in sliding line contact of multilayered elastic solids

A numerical integral scheme based on Fourier transformation approach is employed to investigate the effect of friction on subsurface stresses arising from the two-dimensional sliding contact of two multilayered elastic solids. The analysis incorporates bonded and unbonded interface boundary conditions between the coating layers. Two line contact problems are presented. The first one is the contact problem between a rigid cylinder and a two-layer half space and the second one is the indentation of a multilayered elastic half-space by a flat rigid punch. The effects of the surface coating on the contact pressure distribution and subsurface stress field are presented and discussed.     

Determination of the thermal stress wave propagation in orthotropic hollow cylinder based on classical theory of thermoelasticity

The thermoelasticity problem in a thick-walled orthotropic hollow cylinder is solved analytically using finite Hankel transform and Laplace transform. Time-dependent thermal and mechanical boundary conditions are applied on the inner and the outer surfaces of the cylinder. For solving the energy equation, the temperature itself is considered as boundary condition to be applied on both the inner and the outer surfaces of the orthotropic cylinder. Two different cases are assumed for solving the equation of motion: traction–traction problem (tractions are prescribed on both the inner and the outer surfaces) and traction–displacement (traction is prescribed on the inner surface and displacement is prescribed on the outer surface of the hollow orthotropic cylinder). Due to considering uncoupled theory, after obtaining temperature distribution, the dynamical structural problem is solved and closed-form relations are derived for radial displacement, radial and hoop stress. As a case study, exponentially decaying temperature with respect to time is prescribed on the inner surface of the cylinder and the temperature of the outer surface is considered to be zero. Owing to solving dynamical problem, the stress wave propagation and its reflections were observed after plotting the results in both cases.

Thermal stresses in infinite circular cylinder subjected to rotation

The present investigation is concerned with the effect of rotation on an infinite circular cylinder subjected to certain boundary conditions.An analytical procedure for evaluation of thermal stresses,displacements,and temperature in rotating cylinder subjected to thermal load along the radius is presented.The dynamic thermal stresses in an infinite elastic cylinder of radius a due to a constant temperature applied to a variable portion of the curved surface while the rest of surface is maintained at zero temperature are discussed.Such situation can arise due to melting of insulating material deposited on the surface cylinder.A solution and numerical results are obtained for the stress components,displacement components,and temperature.The results obtained from the present semi-analytical method are in good agreement with those obtained by using the previously developed methods.     

Application of the angular superposition method to the contact problem on the compression of an elastic cylinder

The angular superposition method is used to construct an approximate solution of the contact problem on the compression of an elastic cylinder by two rigid plates. The solution thus obtained has a closed-form analytic expression and can be used in the entire domain of the cylinder cross-section. We analyze the absolute error, which takes the largest value near the points of contact between the plates and the cylinder, where the boundary conditions are discontinuous. According to the von Mises criterion, when moving into the depth of the cylinder from the contact site along the symmetry axis, the second invariant J ₂ of the stress deviator tensor first decreases and then, after attaining a minimum, increases and attains the largest value at a small depth, which agrees with Johnson’s photoelastic experiments and Dinnik’s computations. We present the graphs of the displacement and normal stress distributions over the contact site, the dependence of the compressing force on the displacements of rigid plates, and the dependence of the invariant J ₂ on the coordinate along the symmetry axis. If 640 computation points are chosen on the cylinder boundary and the Hertz law for the normal pressure on the contact site is used, then the error in the approximate solution near the endpoint of the contact site is approximately 55%, and if the proposed two-parameter normal law is used, then the error is of the order of 4%. On the free lateral surface of the cylinder boundary, we find the critical pointM*, which separates the cylinder contraction and extension parts.The contact problems are the most difficult problems, and their solution is complicated by the discontinuous boundary conditions [1–5]. In [6], the contact problem is solved by the Fourier method, which can be used only for bodies of classical shapes. In such cases, the problem can be reduced to solving coupled integral equations [7]. The interaction between the bandage and a cylindrical body is considered in [2, 6, 7]. In [8], the possibility of using the finite element method is investigated in the case of contact problems for a differential wheel with roughness of the contacting surfaces taken into account. In [9, 10], the method of homogeneous solutions is used to consider contact problems for a finite-dimensional elastic cylinder loaded on its end surfaces. Note that only error estimates are given in the literature cited above; the absolute error over the entire domain of the elastic body is not studied, although this is one of the important characteristics of the obtained approximate solution. A sufficiently complete survey of the literature in the field of contact interactions of elastic bodies is given in [3–5].In what follows, we propose to solve contact problems by the angular superposition method [11]. This method can be used for bodies of nonclassical shapes, which can be multiply connected, and the friction on the contact site can be taken into account. In the present paper, as a first example of applied character, we show how this method can be used in the simplest case. The multiple connectedness and the curvilinearity of the shape of the body, as well as taking into account the friction on the boundary, do not create new essential difficulties in this method.     

Crack spacing effect for a piezoelectric cylinder under electro-mechanical loading or transient heating

This paper investigates the fracture problem of a piezoelectric cylinder with a periodic array of embedded circular cracks. An electro-mechanical fracture mechanics model is established first. The model is further used to the thermal fracture analysis of a piezoelectric cylinder subjected to a sudden heating on its outer surface. The temperature field and the associated thermal stresses and electric displacements are obtained and are added to the crack surface to form a mixed-mode boundary value problem for the electro-mechanical coupling fracture. The stress and stress intensities are investigated for the effect of crack spacing. Strength evaluation of piezoelectric materials under the transient thermal environment is made and thermal shock resistance of the medium is given.     

Diffraction of an elastic wave in a disc

A numerical solution is constructed for the axisymmetric problem of the diffraction of a plane longitudinal wave in a rigid disc (cylinder) of finite thickness. The disc is enclosed in an unbounded elastic medium; at the contact surface, the tangential stresses are limited by some constant. The incident wave moves along the axis of the cylinder and has the form of a semiinfinite washed-out step. At the same time, a solution is obtained to the corresponding static problem. A study was made of the dependence of the rate of motion of the cylinder and the stress field on the parameters of the problem. In particular, it is shown that the contact conditions have a considerable effect on the stress field only near the lateral surface. The results obtained can be useful for evaluating the errors in measurement of the stresses and velocities in an elastic medium, and possibly also in certain other cases.Deceased.Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi Mekhaniki i Teknicheskoi Fiziki, No. 3, pp. 139–150, May–June, 1972.     

Generalized form of boundary value problems method for material modeled as micro-polar media subjecting to the thermo-mechanical interaction

In this paper, the periodic structure material is modeled as the continuum homogeneous micro-polar media subjecting to thermo-mechanical interaction. Meanwhile, a series of equivalent quantities such as the equivalent stress, couple stress, displacement gradient and torsion tensor were defined by the integral forms of the boundary values of the external surface force, moment, displacement and the angular displacement, and were proved to satisfy the equivalence conditions of virtual work. Based on above works, the displacement boundary value problem was established to deduce the equivalent constitutive equation. Assume the representative volume element is composed of the spatial cross-framework, and applying the boundary value problem of displacement on frame structures, the equivalent elastic coefficients, temperature coefficients of equivalent stress and the temperature gradient coefficients of equivalent couple stress are deduced. In addition, themethod can also be extended to the stress boundary value problem to deduce the equivalent constitutive equation. The calculations indicate that the equivalent result can be obtained from the two kinds of boundary value problems.     

Transient thermal elastic fracture of a piezoelectric cylinder specimen

A finite piezoelectric cylinder with an embedded penny-shaped crack is investigated for a thermal shock load on the outer surface of the cylinder. The theory of linear electro-elasticity is applied to solve the transient temperature field and the associated thermal stresses and electrical displacements without crack. These thermal stresses and electrical displacements are added to the surfaces of the crack to form an electromechanical coupling and mixed mode boundary-value problem. The electrically permeable crack face boundary condition assumption is used, and the thermal stress intensity factor and electrical displacement intensity factor at the crack border are evaluated. The thermal shock resistance of the piezoelectric cylinder is evaluated for the analysis of piezoelectric material failure in practical engineering applications.     

Shrink fit of an elastic layer having a cylindrical cavity

Summary This paper deals with the problem of determining the stress distribution in an elastic layer with a cylindrical cavity when the mixed boundary conditions are prescribed on the curved surface of the cylinder. The problem is simplified to that of finding the solution of dual integral equations arising from the mixed boundary conditions. These dual integral equations are subsequently reduced to a singular integral equation. The solution of this integral equation is obtained numerically, and the quantities of physical interest are calculated.     

Torsion problem for elastic multilayered finite cylinder with circular crack

An axisymmetric tangent stress is applied to a lateral surface of a multilayered elastic finite cylinder with a fixed bottom face. The problem is solved for an arbitrary number of layers. The layers are coaxial, and the conditions of an ideal mechanical contact are fulfilled between them. A circular crack is situated parallel to the cylinder's faces in the internal layer with branches free from stress. The upper face of the cylinder is also free from stress. Concretization of the problem is done on examples of two-and three-layered cylinders. An analysis of cylinders' stress state is conducted and the stress intensity factor is evaluated depending on the crack's geometry, its location and ratio of the shear modulus. Advantages of the proposed method include reduction of the solution constants' number regardless of the number of layers, and presentation of the mechanical characteristics in a form of uniformly convergent series.     

Application of Differing Forcing Function Models on Simulated Flow Past an Oscillating Cylinder in a Uniform Low Reynolds Number Flow

A Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) model is presented for the uniform viscous two dimensional flow past an oscillating cylinder at low Reynolds number. Numerical simulations are made to study the effect of differing forced induced oscillation mechanisms with a large range of cylinder forcing frequencies. In the first case sinusoidal velocity slip boundary conditions are adopted for the cylinder surface to simulate cylinder oscillation. The implication suggests that no modification or additional term need to be added to the Navier-Stokes equations. In the second case this time extra body force terms which are assumed to account for velocity effects due to cylinder movement are included in the Navier-Stokes equations with the imposition of same boundary conditions. Drag and lift coefficients are extracted from present numerical results and other detailed computations of these coefficients are made at a Reynolds number of 80 and an amplitude-to diameter ratio 0.14. The results are found to be in agreement with each other at low force driving frequencies below and near lock-in. However, differences are found at higher frequencies above lock-in. Agreement are also found with experimental results at some frequency ranges.     

The interaction of surface waves with fixed semi immersed cylinders having symmetric cross sections

The reflection of water waves by a semi immersed cylinder having a symmetric cross section is studied for both Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions on the cylinder. The method of conformal transformations as utilized by Ursell and by Tasai for the radiation problem is adapted to the present diffraction problem. The problem is solved by expansions of the reflected wave potential using nonorthogonal functions (wave free potentials). These functions are not complete, and an additional source and a dipole are required. Infinite systems of linear equations are obtained for the unknown expansion coefficients and the unknown strengths of the source and the dipole terms. Numerical results are obtained for the reflection coefficient, transmission coefficient, horizontal force on cylinder, vertical force on cylinder. In the long wave region analytical approximations are obtained for these functions when the cross section is circular. The reflection and transmission coefficients are very different for the two boundary conditions in the long wave region, the Dirichlet reflection coefficient being much larger than the corresponding Neumann coefficient. This behavior is similar to acoustic and electromagnetic diffraction problems in two dimensions. On leave of absence from Itek Corporation, Lexington (Mass.), U.S.A.     

The equilibrium of a piezoceramic cylindrical body with a parabolic crack

A conjugate electroelastic field in a piezoceramic cylinder with a parabolic crack under static loading is investigated. Uniformly tensile stresses and an electric potential are applied to the end faces of the cylinder. The following two types of electric conditions are considered at the crack boundary: the electric potential is continuous across the crack and the normal component of the electric-displacement vector on the crack surface is equal to zero. For each of these cases, expressions for some quantities characterizing the disturbed field in the crack plane and formulas to calculate the stress intensity factors are presented. S. P.

Hydrodynamic Load Associated with the Oscillations of a Cylinder at the Interface in a Two-Layer Fluid of Finite Depth

The results of numerically solving the linear problem of the small steady-state oscillations of a horizontal cylinder located at the interface between two fluids of different densities are presented. The hybrid element method is used. In this method the velocity potentials are represented by means of the finite element method in a narrow zone in the neighborhood of the body and by means of the boundary integral equations in the outer domain. The Green’s functions for an oscillating source in a two-layer fluid bounded from above by a free boundary and from below by an even horizontal bottom are derived. Numerical calculations of the apparent mass and damping coefficients are carried out for an elliptic cylinder beneath a free surface and for a cylinder with the cross-section in the form of a Lewis rib contour which floats on the free surface.__________Translated from Izvestiya Rossiiskoi Academii Nauk, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 2, 2005, pp. 122–131Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Sturova and Syui.     

Solving the stress problem for solid cylinders with different end conditions

The paper proposes an approach to solving a spatial stress problem for solid circular cylinders under axisymmetric surface loading. Two types of boundary conditions at the ends are examined: simply supported or clamped. The circumferential variable is separated using Fourier series for the former type of boundary conditions, and spline-approximation in longitudinal coordinate is used for the latter type of boundary conditions. The resulting one-dimensional problems are solved by the stable discrete-orthogonalization method, evaluating indeterminate forms on the cylinder axis in the governing equations. Radial displacements and circumferential and longitudinal stresses are plotted __________ Translated from Prikladnaya Mekhanika, Vol. 42, No. 6, pp. 24–31, June 2006.     

A theoretical solution of cylindrically isotropic cylindrical tube for axisymmetric plane strain dynamic thermoelastic problem

A dynamic thermoelastic solution of a cylindrically isotropic cylindrical tube or solid cylinder with axisymmetric plane deformations is developed. Since there exist thermal boundary conditions and tractions on the two surfaces of a cylindrical tube, the problem under consideration is with inhomogeneous boundary conditions. Therefore we introduce a special function to transform the inhomogeneous boundary conditions to homogeneous ones for an unknown function. Then by using the method of separation of variables, the unknown function can be expressed as the multiplication series of Bessel functions and unknown time functions. Thirdly, by virtue of the orthogonal properties of Bessel functions, the equations about these unknown time functions are derived and the solutions are obtained. Finally, the displacement is obtained by adding the two parts mentioned above. By means of the present method, integral transform can be avoided. It is suitable for arbitrary thermal loads and mechanical loads. Numerical results are also presented for thermal shocked, cylindrically isotropic cylindrical tube and solid cylinder.
