Thermoconductivity and thermoelasticity of thin isotropic shells heated by a moving heat pulse

The paper presents a solution to the problem of thermal conduction and thermoelasticity for a thin shallow spherical shell heated by a concentrated or local impulsive heat source moving over the shell surface. It is assumed that temperature is linearly distributed across the shell thickness and that the shell, on its sides, exchanges heat with the environment in accordance with Newton’s law of cooling. The Fourier and Laplace transforms are used to find an analytic solution. The dependence of the temperature field and stress/strain components on the type of heating and the form of heat source is studied __________ Translated from Prikladnaya Mekhanika, Vol. 42, No. 11, pp. 85–92, November 2006.     

Plane Collision Problem for Two Identical Elastic Parabolic Bodies—Direct Central Impact

A direct central collision of two identical infinite cylindrical bodies is studied. A nonstationary plane elastic problem is solved. The variable boundary of the contact area is determined. A mixed boundary problem is formulated. Its solution is represented by Fourier series. An infinite system of Volterra equations of the second kind for the unknown expansion coefficients is derived by satisfying boundary conditions. The basic characteristics of the collision process are determined numerically depending on the curvature of the frontal surface of the bodies     

Inequalities relating to Lp-version of Petty＇s conjectured projection inequality

Petty＇s conjectured projection inequality is a famous open problem in the theory of convex bodies. In this paper, it is shown that an inequality relating to Lp-version of the Petty＇s conjectured projection inequality is developed by using the notions of the Lp-mixed volume and the Lp-dual mixed volume, the relation of the Lp-projection body and the geometric body Г-pK, the Bourgain-Milman inequality and the Lp-Bnsemann-Petty inequality. In addition, for each origin-symmetric convex body, by applying the Jensen inequality and the monotonicity of the geometric body Г-pK, the reverses of Lp-version of the Petty＇s conjectured projection inequality and the Lp-Petty projection inequality are given, respectively.     

Dynamic Analysis of an Infinite Cylindrical Hole in a Saturated Poroelastic Medium

In this paper, the dynamic response of an infinite cylindrical hole embedded in a porous medium and subjected to an axisymmetric ring load is investigated. Two scalar potentials and two vector potentials are introduced to decouple the governing equations of Biot’s theory. By taking a Fourier transform with respect to time and the axial coordinate, we derive general solutions for the potentials, displacements, stresses and pore pressures in the frequency-wave-number domain. Using the general solutions and a set of boundary conditions applied at the hole surface, the frequency-wave-number domain solutions for the proposed problem are determined. Numerical inversion of the Fourier transform with respect to the axial wave number yields the frequency domain solutions, while a double inverse Fourier transform with respect to frequency as well as the axial wave number generates the time-space domain solution. The numerical results of this paper indicate that the dynamic response of a porous medium surrounding an infinite hole is dependant upon many factors including the parameters of the porous media, the location of receivers, the boundary conditions along the hole surface as well as the load characteristics.     

Fourier transform mechanical spectroscopy of the sol-gel transition in zirconium alkoxide ceramic gels

The gelation of a ceramic precursor, zirconium alkoxide, has been studied using dynamic oscillatory measurements. The gelation time is controlled by varying the concentrations of zirconium propoxide, hydrolysis with water, and acetylacetone concentration which acts as a chelating ligand. Gelation times were varied from minutes to months. The gelation time varied with zirconium concentration to the –10 power, hydrolysis to the –7 power, and ligand concentration of the –17 power. The sol-gel transition was monitored using the criteria of Winter in which GG ⁿ and tan () = tan . It is shown that the use of multiple superimposed sinusoidal waves to simultaneously measure the moduli at several frequencies is faster than using individual frequency sweep experiments. The selection of rate and strain criteria for brittle network gels is discussed in detail.     

Mathematical Modeling and Parameter Identification of a Planar Servo-Pneumatic Test Facility. Part I: Mathematical Modeling and Computer Simulation

High quality multi-axis test facilities used for testing heavy loads and large structures of industrial equipment are usually simulated, designed and controlled based on reduced model equations neglecting the inertia properties of the actuators. The design and control of servo-pneumatic test facilities used for testing small and light structures must take into account extended test facility models including the various inertia properties of the actuators. In this paper (Part I) an extended test facility model is presented including the various inertia properties and joints of the actuators. These extended model equations are represented in a form well suited to be directly implemented in control algorithms based on exact linearization techniques for real time control. This is done by stepwise projecting the inertia properties of the various actuator housings and actuator pistons down to the common mass of the test table and payload. The resulting extended model equations have the same form as the reduced model equations. They only include more complex system matrices and vector functions. These compact model equations turn out to be suitable for an efficient nonlinear controller design of these test facilities. Computer simulations and associated laboratory experiments show the necessity to use extended model equations in case of testing small and light structures. In Part II of this paper [1] the inertia parameters of the planar test facility will be identified in laboratory experiments.

SELF-ADAPTIVE STRATEGY FOR ONE-DIMENSIONAL FINITE ELEMENT METHOD BASED ON ELEMENT ENERGY PROJECTION METHOD

Based on the newly-developed element energy projection (EEP) method for computation of super-convergent results in one-dimensional finite element method (FEM), the task of self-adaptive FEM analysis was converted into the task of adaptive piecewise polynomial interpolation. As a result, a satisfactory FEM mesh can be obtained, and further FEM analysis on this mesh would immediately produce an FEM solution which usually satisfies the user specified error tolerance. Even though the error tolerance was not completely satisfied, one or two steps of further local refinements would be sufficient. This strategy was found to be very simple, rapid, cheap and efficient. Taking the elliptical ordinary differential equation of second order as the model problem, the fundamental idea, implementation strategy and detailed algorithm are described. Representative numerical examples are given to show the effectiveness and reliability of the proposed approach.
