Combined implementing the hole-drilling method and reflection hologram interferometry for residual stresses determination in cylindrical shells and tubes

Main features inherent in simplified approach to residual stresses determination in cylindrical shells and tubes, external diameter of which is not less than 60 mm, by combing the hole-drilling method and reflection hologram interferometry are discussed in detail. Initial experimental information in a form of hole diameter increments in principal stress directions is derived from high-quality reflection holograms recorded near cylindrical objects of intermediate curvature value. Converting measured parameters into required stress values is based on the transition model that corresponds to plane stress conditions of pure membrane type. The technique developed is capable of determining residual stress component values within 5% accuracy in an absence of stress gradients over the probe hole diameter when a type of residual stress field corresponds to the transition model adopted. The accuracy analysis involved is based on matrix formulation of conventionally direct problem and an assumption on a pure membrane character of residual stress field under study for thin-walled shell. Required error estimations in a case of inspecting thick-walled cylindrical tube are obtained by combining the above-mentioned approach and an analogy of reconstructed fringe patterns with actual and artificial interferograms, which follow from drilling blind hole of the same geometrical parameters in thick-walled plates. Experimental verification of the developed approach is founded upon a determination of actual stresses in thin-walled cylindrical shell and obtaining residual stress distributions at the proximity of welded joint in thick-walled cylindrical tube.

Collapse of a charged radiating star with shear

The junction conditions for a magnetohydrodynamic fluid sphere undergoing dissipative gravitational collapse in the form of a radial heat flux with shear are obtained. These conditions extend particular results of earlier treatments. We demonstrate that the pressure is proportional to the magnitude of the heat flux as is the case in shear-free models. However in our case the gravitational potentials must be solutions of the Einstein-Maxwell system of equations. The mass function m(v) is increased by a factor related to the charge Q of the radiating star. Physical quantities relating to the local conservation of momentum and surface redshift are obtained.     

Numerical simulations of partial elements excitation for hemispherical high-intensity focused ultrasound phased transducer

The hemispherical phased transducer maximizes the coverage of the skull and the ultrasonic energy per unit area of the skull is minimized, thereby reducing the risk of skull burns, but the transducer has a small focal area adjustment range, increasing the focal length of treatment is an urgent question for this type of transducer. In this paper, a three-dimensional high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) transcranial propagation model is established based on the human head structure. The finite difference time domain (FDTD) is combined with the Westervelt acoustic wave nonlinear propagation equation and Penne's biological heat conduction equation for numerical simulation of the sound pressure field and temperature field. Forming a treatable focal area in a small-opening hemispherical transducer with a small amount of numerical simulation calculation focusing at a set position to determine the minimum partial excitation area ratio of focusing. And then, applying these preliminary results to a large-opening diameter hemispherical transducer and the temperature field formed by it or full excitation is studied. The results show that the focus area with the excitation area ratio of less than 22% moves forward to the transducer side when the excitation sound is formed. When the excitation area ratio is greater than or equal to 23%, it focuses at the set position. In the case of partial incentives, using 23% of the partial array, the adjustable range of the treatable focal area formed in the three-dimensional space is larger than that of the full excitation.     

Two-dimensional thermoelastic analysis of a functionally graded cylindrical panel due to nonuniform heat supply

This paper is concerned with the theoretical treatment of the steady-state thermoelastic problem of a functionally graded cylindrical panel due to nonuniform heat supply in the circumferential direction. The thermal and thermoelastic constants of the cylindrical panel are expressed as power functions of the radial coordinate. We obtain the exact solution for the two-dimensional temperature change in a steady state, and thermal stresses of a simple supported cylindrical panel under the state of plane strain. Some numerical results are shown in figures and tables. Furthermore, the influence of the nonhomogeneity of the material, the radius ratio and the span angle upon the temperature change, displacements and stresses is investigated.     

Theoretical and experimental analysis of longitudinal wave propagation in cylindrical viscoelastic rods

Wave propagation in viscoelastic rods is encountered in many applications including studies of impact and fracture under high strain rates and characterization of the dynamic behavior of viscoelastic materials. For viscoelastic materials, both material and geometric dispersion are possible when the diameter of the rod is of the same order as the wavelength. In this work, we simplify the Pochhammer frequency equation for low and intermediate loss viscoelastic materials and formulate corrections for geometric dispersion for both the phase velocity and attenuation. The formulation is then experimentally verified with measurements of the phase velocity and attenuation in commercial polymethylmethacrylate rods that are 12 and in diameter. Without correcting for geometric dispersion, the usable frequency range for determining the phase velocity and attenuation for the rod is about , and about for the rod. Using the correction procedure developed here, it was possible to accurately determine the phase velocity and attenuation up to frequencies exceeding for the rod and for the rod. These corrections are applicable to many polymers and other viscoelastic materials. From thereon, the viscoelastic properties of the material can be determined over a wide range of frequencies.

Multiple scattering of an obliquely incident plane acoustic wave from a grating of immersed cylindrical shells

The study of the interaction of acoustic waves with cylindrical structures has numerous applications including the ultrasonic nondestructive testing of materials. In this paper, using a new mathematical model presented for the scattering of obliquely incident plane acoustic waves from a grating of immersed cylindrical shells, a detailed study of the resonant interaction of A-wave resonances originating from the shells is conducted. The nature of A-wave resonances and the effect of center-to-center distance of the shells on these resonances are examined. It is observed that this resonant interaction not only results in the splitting of A-wave resonances, but also causes an increase in resonance amplitudes. This interaction phenomenon is not seen in Rayleigh, whispering gallery and guided wave resonances. It is also shown that increasing the angle of wave incidence to the grating weakens the A-wave resonant interactions. The numerical results obtained from the mathematical model are compared to experimental results available in the literature for gratings composed of two and three aluminum shells. The numerical results are in very good agreement with their experimental counterparts.     

Multilayer dielectric cylindrical mirrors based on omnidirectional reflection from a one-dimensional photonic crystal

A multilayer dielectric cylindrical mirror (MDCM) based on the one-dimensional omnidirectional reflection of a photonic crystal is presented. In this case, the refractive indices of the two materials are 1.6 (polystyrene) and 4.6 (tellurium), and the corresponding optimized thicknesses are 0.75a and 0.25a. A very high reflectance over a wide frequency range is observed. In this case, a is the lattice constant of the photonic crystal. In this band, the MDCM has good reflection and focal properties. Therefore, it is feasible to use the MDCM for integrated waveguide devices. As an example, an etched diffraction grating demultiplexer based on the MDCM is also proposed. Both the operational principle and design of the device are introduced. This provides a method for designing compact integrated waveguide devices.
