Dynamic solution of a multilayered orthotropic piezoelectric hollow cylinder for axisymmetric plane strain problems

The dynamic solution of a multilayered orthotropic piezoelectric infinite hollow cylinder in the state of axisymmetric plane strain is obtained. By the method of superposition, the solution is divided into two parts: one is quasi-static and the other is dynamic. The quasi-static part is derived by the state space method, and the dynamic part is obtained by the separation of variables method coupled with the initial parameter method as well as the orthogonal expansion technique. By using the obtained quasi-static and dynamic parts and the electric boundary conditions as well as the electric continuity conditions, a Volterra integral equation of the second kind with respect to a function of time is derived, which can be solved successfully by means of the interpolation method. The displacements, stresses and electric potentials are finally obtained. The present method is suitable for a multilayered orthotropic piezoelectric infinite hollow cylinder consisting of arbitrary layers and subjected to arbitrary axisymmetric dynamic loads. Numerical results are finally presented and discussed.

Transient thermal stresses in an orthotropic hollow cylinder for axisymmetric problems

For the thermoelastic dynamic axisymmetric problem of a finite orthotropic hollow cylinder, one comes closer to reality to involve the effect of axial strain than to consider the plane strain case only. However, additional mathematical difficulties should be encountered and a different solution procedure should be developed. By the separation of variables, the thermoelastic axisymmetric dynamic problem of an orthotropic hollow cylinder taking account of the axial strain is transformed to a Volterra integral equation of the second kind for a function of time, which can be solved efficiently and quickly by the interpolation method. The solutions of displacements and stresses are obtained. It is noted that the present method is suitable for an orthotropic hollow cylinder with an arbitrary thickness subjected to arbitrary axisymmetric thermal loads. Numerical comparison is made to show the effect of the axial strain on the displacements and stresses.

A theoretical solution of cylindrical shells for axisymmetric plain strain elastodynamic problems

A method is developed for the transient responses of axisymmetric plain strain problems of cylindrical shells subjected to dynamic loads. Firstly, a special function was introduced to transform the inhomogeneous boundary conditions into the homogeneous ones. Secondly, using the method of separation of variables, the quantity that the displacement subtracts the special function was expanded as the multiplication series of Bassel functions and time functions. Then by virtue of the orthogonal properties of Bessel functions, the equation with respect to the time variable was derived, of which the solution is easily obtained. The displacement solution was finally obtained by adding the two parts mentioned above. The present method can avoid the integral transform and is fit for arbitrary loads. Numerical results are presented for internally shocked isotropic and cylindrically isotropic cylindrical shells and externally shocked cylinders, as well as for an externally shocked, cylindrically isotropic cylindrical shell that is fixed at the internal surface.

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.

A theoretical solution for axially symmetric problems in elastodynamics

This paper presents a theoretical solution for the basic equation of axisymmetric problems in elastodynamics. The solution is composed of a quasi-static solution which satisfies inhomogeneous boundary conditions and a dynamic solution which satisfies homogeneous boundary conditions. After the quasi-static solution has been obtained an inhomogeneous equation for dynamic solution is found from the basic equation. By making use of eigenvalue problem of a corresponding homogeneous equation, a finite Hankel transform is defined. A dynamic solution satisfying homogeneous boundary conditions is obtained by means of the finite Hankel transform and Laplace transform. Thus, an exact solution is obtained. Through an example of hollow cylinders under dynamic load, it is seen that the method, and the process of computing are simple, effective and accurate.     

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.     

Elastic and viscoelastic solutions to rotating functionally graded hollow and solid cylinders

Analytical solutions to rotating functionally graded hollow and solid long cylinders are developed. Young＇s modulus and material density of the cylinder are assumed to vary exponentially in the radial direction, and Poisson＇s ratio is assumed to be constant. A unified governing equation is derived from the equilibrium equations, compatibility equation, deformation theory of elasticity and the stress-strain relationship. The governing second-order differential equation is solved in terms of a hypergeometric function for the elastic deformation of rotating functionally graded cylinders. Dependence of stresses in the cylinder on the inhomogeneous parameters, geometry and boundary conditions is examined and discussed. The proposed solution is validated by comparing the results for rotating functionally graded hollow and solid cylinders with the results for rotating homogeneous isotropic cylinders. In addition, a viscoelastic solution to the rotating viscoelastic cylinder is presented, and dependence of stresses in hollow and solid cylinders on the time parameter is examined.

Thermo-electro-elastic transient responses in piezoelectric hollow structures

The paper presents an analytical method to solve thermo-electro-elastic transient response in piezoelectric hollow structures subjected to arbitrary thermal shock, sudden mechanical load and electric excitation. Volterra integral equation of the second kind caused by interaction between elastic deformation and electric field is solved by using an interpolation method. Thus, the exact expressions for the transient responses of displacement, stresses, electric displacement and electric potential in the piezoelectric hollow structures are obtained by means of Hankel transform, Laplace transform, and their inverse transforms. In Section 2, based on spherical coordinates, the governing equation of thermo-electro-elastic transient responses in a piezoelectric hollow sphere is found and the associated numerical results are carried out. In Section 3, based on cylindrical coordinates, the governing equation of thermo-electro-elastic transient responses in a non-homogeneous piezoelectric hollow cylinder is found and the corresponding numerical results are carried out. The results carried out may be used as a reference to solve other transient coupled problems of thermo-electro-elasticity in piezoelectric structures.     

Elastodynamic solution for plane-strain response of functionally graded thick hollow cylinders by analytical method

An elastodynamic solution for plane-strain response of functionally graded thick hollow cylinders subjected to uniformly-distributed dynamic pressures at boundary surfaces is presented. The material properties, except Poisson’s ratio, are assumed to vary through the thickness according to a power law function. To achieve an exact solution, the dynamic radial displacement is divided into two quasi-static and dynamic parts, and for each part, an analytical solution is derived. The quasi-static solution is obtained by means of Euler’s equation, and the dynamic solution is derived using the method of the separation of variables and the orthogonal expansion technique. The radial displacement and stress distributions are plotted for various functionally graded material (FGM) hollow cylinders under different dynamic loads, and the advantages of the presented method are discussed. The proposed analytical solution is suitable for analyzing various arrangements of hollow FGM cylinders with arbitrary thickness and arbitrary initial conditions, which are subjected to arbitrary forms of dynamic pressures distributed uniformly on their boundary surfaces.
