On the problem of axisymmetrically loaded shells of revolution with small elastic strains and arbitrarily large axial deflections

For the problem of axisymmetrically loaded shells of revolution with small elastic strains and arbitrarily large axial deflections, this paper suggests a group of state variable: radial displacement u, axial displacement w, angular, deflection of tangent in the meridian X, radial stress resultant H and meridional bending moment M_s, and derives a System of First-order Nonlinear Differential Equations under global coordinate system with these variables. The Principle of Minimum Potential Energy for the problem is obtained by means of weighted residual method, and its Generalized Variational Principle by means of identified Lagrange multiplier method.This paper also presents a Method of Variable-characteristic Nondimensionization with a scale of load parameter, which may efficientlky raise the probability of success for nonlinearity calculation. The obtained Nondimensional System of Differential Equations and Nondimensional Principle of Minimum Potential Energy could be taken as the theoretical basis for the numerical computation of axisymmetrical shells with arbitrarily large deflections.     

Post-buckling behavior of two elastica columns linked with a rotational spring

The post-buckling problem of a fixed-free column composed of two segments connected by a linear rotational spring with different flexural stiffness and lengths is studied. A semi-analytical solution is derived and the results are checked using two different numerical approaches. In the first approach, the problem is solved using numerical integration technique, while in the second approach, the problem is solved using large displacement finite element analysis of NASTRAN program. Excellent agreements have been obtained between the semi-analytical and the numerical approaches.

Furthermore, a regression analysis has been made for the parameters covered in this study and a regression function has been obtained which relates to the tip axial horizontal displacement (δ) as a function of load parameter () and fixity ratio (f). From this function, the stored strain energy (U) is obtained and plotted to be used as a design chart for engineers to obtain the required fixity ratio for a given stored strain energy and load parameter.

Effect of residual surface stress on the fracture of nanoscale materials

The problem of a mode I crack in nanomaterials under a remote mechanical load is investigated. The effect of the residual surface stress on the crack surface is considered and the solutions to the crack opening displacement (COD) and the stress intensity factor (K_I) are obtained. The results show that the surface effect on the crack deformation and crack tip field are prominent at nanoscale. Moreover, COD and K_I are influenced by the residual surface stress not only on the surface near the crack tip region but also on the entire crack surface.     

Determination of residual stresses by an optical correlative hole-drilling method

In conjunction with the incremental hole-drilling method, a new evaluation procedure is presented for determining the residual stress state in components. In contrast to the classical method, the whole displacement field around the drilled hole is measured using the electronic speckle pattern interferometry technique. The displacement patterns, measured without contact to the surface, are then correlated with those obtained by finite-element simulations using statistical methods. The simulated displacement patterns, used for calibration purposes, result from the application of properly defined basic loads. In this way, the values and the orientation of the residual stresses can be determined by superposition of these properly scaled and shifted basic loads. Even complex states of stress can be evaluated. The theoretical background and experimental results are presented.

Influence of the structure of a porous medium on the residual gas saturation in the case of capillary displacement by a liquid

A model of a porous medium consisting of randomly branching conical pores is used to investigate the quasistatic displacement of gas by a wetting liquid without application of an external pressure. Allowance is made for the circumstance that in the capillary process all the pores have at least one-sided permeability for the liquid phase. An expression is obtained that relates the residual gas saturation to the parameters which characterize the structure of the pores and the wetting properties of the system. Two new characteristics of the pore space are introduced — the branching parameter and the opening angle of the pores — and the influence of these parameters on the residual saturation is investigated. It is shown that for individual classes of natural media the residual gas saturation depends only on the porosity and the contact angle of wetting.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 5, pp. 128–133, September–October, 1981.     

Blind-hole residual stress determination using optical interferometry

The in-plane method and the out-of-plane method are used to analyze blind-hole residual stress as measured by optical interferometry. The in-plane method, which constructs a relation between the in-plane displacement field and the residual stress released from blind-hole drilling, is applicable when the sensitivity vector of the interferometer used in the measuring system is parallel to the object surface. Three in-plane displacements obtained from one interference pattern are sufficient to determine the residual stress. The out-of-plane method, which establishes a new relation between the out-of-plane displacement field and the released residual stress, is suggested when the sensitivity vector is perpendicular to the object surface. Two relative out-of-plane displacements extracted from one interference pattern are sufficient to determine the residual stress. With the adoption of these two methods, interpolating calculation is not needed to determine the fringe order of each data point, since the selections of the required data points are flexible using these two methods. Two experiments, one for the in-plane method and the other for the out-of-plane method, were carried out to illustrate the applicability and usefulness of these two methods.     

Analysis of axially symmetrical residual stresses in bars and tubes

A new method has been developed for the determination of residual stresses in a cylinder. Boring out or removing layers from outside induces changes in the length and diameter of the remaining bar. The initial distributions of the stresses are derived from measurements of the length change only. Details of equations required for the calculations are described. The method rests on an assumption that the radial displacement just below a surface is equal to the radial displacement at a new surface after removal of the surface layer of material. This assumption leads to relations between the three residual-stress components. The numerical calculations of these relations agree well with the experimental data for quenched cylinders obtained by using the Sachs method in other investigations. A brief general discussion is given on the equilibrium conditions of the residual stresses determined.     

Generalized thermoelastic functionally graded solid with a periodically varying heat source

This paper deals with the problem of thermoelastic interactions in a functionally graded isotropic unbounded medium due to the presence of periodically varying heat sources in the context of the linear theory of generalized thermoelasticity without energy dissipation (TEWOED). The governing equations of generalized thermoelasticity without energy dissipation (GN model type II) for a functionally graded materials (FGM) (i.e. material with spatially varying material properties)are established. The governing equations are expressed in Laplace–Fourier double transform domain and solved in that domain. Now, the inversion of the Fourier transform is carried out by using residual calculus, where poles of the integrand is obtained numerically in complex domain by using Laguerre’s method and the inversion of Laplace transform is done numerically using a method based on Fourier series expansion technique. The numerical estimates of the displacement, temperature, stress and strain are obtained for a hypothetical material. The solution to the analogous problem for homogeneous isotropic material is obtained by taking nonhomogeneity parameter suitably. Finally the results obtained are presented graphically to show the effect of nonhomogeneity on displacement, temperature, stress and strain.

Anti-plane fracture analysis for the weak-discontinuous interface in a non-homogeneous piezoelectric bi-material structure

The concept of weak discontinuity is extended to functionally graded piezoelectric bi-material interface, and fracture analysis for the weak discontinuous interface is performed by the methods of Fourier integral transform and Cauchy singular integral equation. Numerical results of the total energy release rate (TERR) and the mechanical strain energy release rate (MSERR) are obtained to show the effects of non-homogeneity parameters, geometrical parameters and loads. Parametric studies yield three conclusions: (1) To reduce the weak-discontinuity of the interface is beneficial to resisting interfacial fracture. The effect of the weak-discontinuity of the interface on TERR and MSERR still depends on the strip width. The wider the strip, the more sensitive the TERR and MSERR will be to the weak-discontinuity of the interface. (2) To predict the effect of electric load on crack propagation, MSERR is more appropriate than TERR to be used as a fracture parameter. To predict the effect of mechanical load on crack propagation, both of them could be used as fracture parameters, and MSERR is more conservative. (3) Mechanical load and negative electric displacement load would promote crack propagation, but positive electric displacement load would retard it. For the structure applied by combined mechanical and positive electric displacement loads, crack propagation may be impeded by appropriately selecting the strip width and the ratio of non-homogeneity parameters.     

A New Procedure to Measure Near Yield Residual Stresses Using the Deep Hole Drilling Technique

Mechanical strain relief techniques for estimating the magnitude of residual stress work by measuring strains or displacements when part of the component is machined away. The underlying assumption is that such strain or displacement changes result from elastic unloading. Unfortunately, in components containing high levels of residual stress, elastic-plastic unloading may well occur, particularly when the residual stresses are highly triaxial. This paper examines the performance of one mechanical strain relief technique particularly suitable for large section components, the deep hole drilling (DHD) technique. The magnitude of error is calculated for different magnitudes of residual stress and can be substantial for residual stress states close to yield. A modification to the technique is described to allow large magnitudes of residual stress to be measured correctly. The new technique is validated using the case of a quenched cylinder where use of the standard DHD technique leads to unacceptable error. The measured residual stresses using the new technique are compared with the results obtained using the neutron diffraction technique and are shown to be in excellent agreement.     

Stability of a rubber half-space

The paper treats the stability of surface waves generated when a rubber half-space is subjected to compression. At a load level below the critical one an asymptotic expansion is given for the difference between the potential energy of an adjacent state and that of the fundamental state. The displacement field is expressed approximately by a linear combination of two different buckling modes and a residual displacement field which is orthogonal to the former fields. This remainder permits us to take into account the effect of all other modes which have been neglected. The wavelength of the two modes are governed by the dominant imperfections of the half-space. Terms up to the fourth order in the amplitudes of the buckling modes are included.Results are presented to show the most severe post-buckling behaviour as presented by the line of steepest descent in the load displacement diagram. Furthermore curves showing the reduction of the critical load on account of the imperfections in the two dominant modes are also presented. The analysis is kept sufficiently general to include the effect of pre-straining the rubber half-space upon the post-buckling behaviour.

Non-linear buckling and postbuckling behavior of thin-walled beams considering shear deformation

The static stability of thin-walled composite beams, considering shear deformation and geometrical non-linear coupling, subjected to transverse external force has been investigated in this paper. The theory is formulated in the context of large displacements and rotations, through the adoption of a shear deformable displacement field (accounting for bending and warping shear) considering moderate bending rotations and large twist. This non-linear formulation is used for analyzing the prebuckling and postbuckling behavior of simply supported, cantilever and fixed-end beams subjected to different load condition. Ritz's method is applied in order to discretize the non-linear differential system and the resultant algebraic equations are solved by means of an incremental Newton-Rapshon method. The numerical results show that the beam loses its stability through a stable symmetric bifurcation point and the postbuckling strength is in relation with the buckling load value. Classical predictions of lateral buckling are conservative when the prebuckling displacements are not negligible and the non-linear buckling analysis is required for reliable solutions. The analysis is supplemented by investigating the effects of the variation of load height parameter. In addition, the critical load values and postbuckling response obtained with the present beam model are compared with the results obtained with a shell finite element model (Abaqus).     

Prediction of transient displacement, velocity, and force on projectiles penetrating cohesive soils

A closed-form solution is developed for predicting transient displacement, velocity, and force as well as residual displacement and duration for both flat and pointed projectiles penetrating cohesive soils. Because transient response can be represented as a 3 parameter space of nondimensional numbers, displacement, velocity, and force are each presented in a single graph. Experimental test data for different soils and penetrator contours are used to demonstrate the validity of both transient and residual responses. Of great importance in this solution and soil dynamics in general is the advancement of a hypothesis for the dynamic interaction of intergranular stress, pore water pressure, and pore air pressure in the resisting force that retards penetration. Because fundamental dynamic pore pressure theory is used to develop this analysis, basic soil properties (cohesive yield strength, density, and degree of saturation) are used to characterize the cohesive soil.     

Large deflection of circular plate under compound load

By means of the perturbation method, this paper presents an approximate solution for large deflection of clamped circular plate under uniform pressure together with a concentrated load at the center. The special case of vanishing central deflection is also discussed. In this paper, a load distribution function is introduced so as to make the compound loads depend on a single load parameter, and average angular deflection is used as the single displacement perturbation parameter.     

Measurement of Applied Stresses and Residual Stresses on a Residual Stress Model by Applying Two Different Loads

Applied stresses on a residual stress model have previously been obtained by measuring the residual stresses and the resultant stresses generated by applying a load. The present paper reports that the applied stresses and the residual stresses on the residual stress model can be obtained by measuring two resultant stresses generated by applying loads of two different magnitudes. In the proposed method, the residual stresses need not be obtained from the residual stress model before applying a load. The residual stress model used to test the proposed method is a circular disk with frozen stresses that is subjected to a diametral compressive load at a certain angle. The applied stresses and the residual stresses on a residual stress model were experimentally and precisely obtained by digital photoelasticity using linearly polarized light.
