Experimental Mechanics - A shear constraint was very recently proposed by Abedini et al. (Int. J. Solids and Structures 151: 118–134 2018) to evaluate and calibrate advanced non-quadratic... 相似文献
This paper presents the theory development and numerical implementation of a new gradient-deficient-based ANCF (Absolute Nodal Coordinate Formulation) model applied to perform the nonlinear dynamic analysis of elastic line structures subject to large stretching and deformation. The derivations of model equations, introduced numerical approaches, and result validations are the focuses of this study. Different from the traditional rod theory for small stretching consideration, the present model implements the line structures’ large elongation concepts into both the control mechanisms of constitutive formulations and equations of motion. The effect of external hydrodynamic forces on structures is also included in the model formulations. Based on the conservation of energy, the line model developed in this study covers the variation in strain and takes a full account of the bending effect with large stretching. A finite-element-based implicit scheme according to a modified Newmark-beta method is employed to solve the assembled system equations with unknown variables of nodal position vectors, their tangential derivatives, and strains. Selected cases with dynamic motions, such as nonlinear oscillation of a compound pendulum, free falling of a horizontal elastic beam in air with two different settings of gravity, free falling of a submerged horizontal tether with and without an attached concentrated mass, and a submerged vertical tether with a prescribed translational motion, are simulated to verify the developed model by comparing the results with analytical solutions and published experimental data and numerical results. It is found the present ANCF model, as noticed with good matched results with analytical solutions, measurements and other published solutions, is demonstrated to be able to provide converged and reasonably accurate predictions on the responses of line structures subject to large dynamic motions.
The presence of Cu in reactions of triphenylene (TRPH) and 1,4‐C4F8I2 at 360 °C led to regiospecific substitution of TRPH ortho C(β) atoms to form C4F8‐containing rings, completely suppressing substitution on C(α) atoms. In addition, Cu caused selective reductive‐defluorination/aromatization (RD/A) to form C4F4‐containing aromatic rings. Without Cu, the reactions of TRPH and 1,4‐C4F8I2 were not regiospecific and no RD/A was observed. These results, supported by DFT calculations, are the first examples of Cu‐promoted 1) regiospecific perfluoroannulation, 2) preparative C?F activation, and 3) RD/A. HPLC‐purified products were characterized by X‐ray diffraction, low‐temperature PES, and 1H/19F NMR. 相似文献
Over the past few decades, the realm of inorganic medicinal chemistry has been dominated by the study of the anti-cancer properties of transition metal complexes, particularly those based on platinum or ruthenium. However, comparatively less attention has been focused on the development of metal complexes for the treatment of inflammatory or autoimmune diseases. Metal complexes possess a number of advantages that render them as attractive alternatives to organic small molecules for the development of therapeutic agents. In this perspective, we highlight recent examples in the development of transition metal complexes as modulators of inflammatory and autoimmune responses. The studies presented here serve to highlight the potential of transition metal complexes in modulating inflammatory or immune pathways in cells. 相似文献
