Axisymmetric deformation of cylinders made of homogeneous and fiber-reinforced elastic materials in butt-end torsion

The equations of axisymmetric deformation of a circular cylinder made of homogeneous and weakly fiber-reinforced materials in a macroscopically two-dimensional problem statement are presented. The fibers are placed in the axial, circumferential, and radial directions and along spirals in the cylinder wall. They also can lie along opposite spirals in adjacent cylindrical layers, forming an angle-ply reinforcement scheme. At a low content of fibers, it is assumed that they are in the uniaxial stress state, determined by the axial tension or constraint compression in the deformed cylinder. Based on this mathematical model, the deformation of homogeneous and fiber-reinforced elastic cylinders of various length, with free outer surfaces, in butt-end torsion is investigated. The effect of length of the cylinders on their deformation character in torsion is evaluated. The torsion of the cylinders under the conditions of sliding fit along the inner surface and under the action of pressure on the surface, when the initial and deformed configurations are practically congruent, is considered.     

Stress softening, strain localization and permanent set in the circumferential shear of an incompressible elastomeric cylinder

Corresponding author, email huntley{at}umich.edu A constitutive theory for elastomeric materials has recentlybeen developed according to which stress is generated by differentmicromechanisms at different levels of deformation. When thedeformation is small, the stress is given by the usual theoryof rubber elasticity. As the deformation increases, some junctionsof the macromolecular microstructure rupture. Junctions thenre-form to generate a new microstructure. The constitutive equationallows for continuous scission of the original junctions andformation of new ones as deformation increases. The macromolecularscission causes stress reduction. The formation of new microstructuresresults in permanent set on release of external load. The present work considers a hollow circular cylinder composedof such a material, also assumed to be incompressible and isotropic.The cylinder is fixed rigidly at its inner surface and undergoesaxisymmetric deformation due to a uniform axial moment appliedat the outer surface. There develops an outer zone of materialwith the original microstructure and an inner zone of materialhaving undergone macromolecular scission, separated by a cylindricalinterface, the radius of which increases with the rotation ofthe outer surface. The shear deformation distribution, moment-rotationresponse and permanent set on release of moment are determined.It is found that microstructural scission can lead to higherlevels of shear deformation near the inner surface of the cylinderthan in the case of purely elastic response. It is also seenthat a residual state of high shear deformation can arise ina thin layer of material at the inner boundary of the cylinder.

Non-linear elastic behavior of filler aggregates

A filled rubber network consists of polymer chains which are suspended between filler aggregates. In this contribution, the nonlinear elastic behavior of the aggregated filler particles inside the rubber matrix is investigated. Previously, by using scaling theory, the influence of initial length and fractal dimension of aggregates on the elastic response of aggregated structures was studied. Here we additionally take into account a deformation induced evolution of the aggregate structure. To this end, the directional topology of the aggregate structure is represented by its backbone chain. Thus, the analytical approach proposed describes not only the geometrically but also the physically non-linear behavior of aggregates. Our solution can further be generalized for colloidal structures as for example granular materials or suspended solid structures. (© 2009 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Transverse Oscillations of a Cylindrical Vessel with a Two-Layer Liquid Separated by an Elastic Membrane

A solution is given for the transverse oscillations, under elastic forces, of a cylindrical vessel containing an ideal two-layer liquid with elastic membranes at the free and inner surfaces of the stratified liquid. The following limiting cases for the elastic membrane are examined: it lies only at the free surface of a uniform and two-layer liquid; it separates a two-layer liquid; it exists at both the free and the inner surfaces of a two-layer liquid. The numerically calculated dependences of the first eigenfrequency on the tension of the membrane, liquid densities, and filling depth are analyzed.     

Waves of Transverse Stresses under a Plane Impact on the Surface of a Sandwich Panel (Acoustic Approximation)

The wave process arising in a sandwich panel with a free back surface under the action of a short-term dynamic load on the front surface of the upper layer (plane deformation) is investigated. The calculation procedure for displacements, rates, and stresses under a rectangular short-time pulse, whose duration does not exceed the double time of wave travel within a layer, is based on the representation of the solution to the one-dimensional wave equation in terms of characteristics. The transmission and reflection coefficients of the pressure pulses on the contact surfaces of layers with different physical properties are determined. The expressions for tensile stresses in the panel face layers and filler, which are responsible for the material failure by spalling, are presented. The stresses in relation to the geometry and dynamic parameters of the sandwich structure are analyzed. In the case of a symmetric panel structure, the stress pattern in the midlayer and on its contact boundaries is given, which takes into account the branching and superposition of pulses.     

Calculation of composite structures subjected to follower loads by using a geometrically exact shell element

Based on a 7-parameter shell model, a numerical algorithm has been developed for solving the geometrically nonlinear problem of a multilayer composite shell subjected to a follower pressure and undergoing large displacements and rotations. As unknowns, six displacements of the outer surfaces and addition ally the transverse displacement of midsurface of the shell are chosen. This allows one to use the Green–Lagrange strain tensor, introduced earlier by the authors, which exactly represents arbitrarily large rigid-body displacements of the shell in curvilinear coordinates of a reference surface. A geometrically exact solid shell element is formulated, which permits one to solve the nonlinear deformation problem for thin-walled composite structures subjected to a follower pressure by using a very small number of load steps.     

Nonlinearity of the dynamic properties of rubbers at large inhomogeneous compressive deformations

The isothermal inhomogeneous harmonic compression has been calculated for a material with nonlinear elastic characteristics and a hyperbolic relaxation time distribution. The experimental data for rubbers satisfactorily confirm the theory. The proposed characteristics of the elasto-hysteresis properties of rubbers do not depend on the test piece geometry and are functions of the degree of deformation.Mekhanika Polimerov, Vol. 3, No. 1, pp. 66–72, 1967     

New solutions for capillary waves on curved sheets of fluid

Stationary nonlinear capillary waves on an annular liquid sheetare studied with the aim of computing antisymmetric wave profiles,whose existence was conjectured by Crowdy (2001, Eur. J. Appl.Math., 12, 689–708). The waves are computed using a complexvariable approach, by seeking a Fourier series representationof an analytic function whose coefficients are determined numericallysubject to the boundary condition constraints. Typical profilesare presented with both equal and different surface tensionsprevailing at the two free surfaces. Symmetric solutions similarto those reported by Crowdy are shown together with new antisymmetricconfigurations. Annuli with inner boundary possessing a higher degree of rotational symmetry than the outer boundary are shownto occur as bifurcations from a main branch where the symmetryis the same on both surfaces.     

Thermal buckling and post-buckling analysis of geometrically imperfect FGM clamped tubes on nonlinear elastic foundation

Present research deals with the thermal buckling and post-buckling analysis of the geometrically imperfect functionally graded tubes on nonlinear elastic foundation. Imperfect FGM tube with immovable clamped–clamped end conditions is subjected to thermal environments. Tube under different types of thermal loads, such as heat conduction, linear temperature change, and uniform temperature rise is analyzed. Material properties of the FGM tube are assumed to be temperature dependent and are distributed through the radial direction. Displacement field satisfies the tangential traction free boundary conditions on the inner and outer surfaces of the FGM tube. The nonlinear governing equations of the FGM tube are obtained by means of the virtual displacement principle. The equilibrium equations are based on the nonlinear von Kármán assumption and higher order shear deformation circular tube theory. These coupled differential equations are solved using the two-step perturbation method. Approximate solutions are provided to estimate the thermal post-buckling response of the perfect/imperfect FGM tube as explicit functions of the various thermal loads. Numerical results are provided to explore the effects of different geometrical parameters of the FGM tube subjected to different types of thermal loads. The effects of power law index, springs stiffness of elastic foundation, and geometrical imperfection parameter of tube are also included.
