非均匀流体介质内部散射声场重建的逐层计算方法*

入射声波激励下非均匀流体介质内部散射声场的重建方法对超声层析成像具有重要意义。以往采用矩量法求解,但该方法全域离散形成的复数满秩矩阵规模随着分辨率与计算精度的提高而急剧增大,对算力具有很高的要求,一定程度上限制了其在实际中的应用。为克服上述缺陷,本文以逐层离散、逐层计算为核心思想,以声散射基本公式与近场声全息理论为基础,推导出逐层计算非均匀流体介质内部散射声场的理论公式并给出对应的几何离散模型。为验证该方法的可行性,以矩量法为参照,对同样的介质模型进行介质内部声场重构仿真。结果表明,逐层算法不仅可以有效地重建非均匀流体介质内部散射声场,且大幅度减小了求解规模。

The Stress Response of Functionally Graded Isotropic Linearly Elastic Rotating Disks

The purpose of this research is to investigate the effects of material inhomogeneity on the response of linearly elastic isotropic solid circular disks or cylinders, rotating at constant angular velocity about a central axis. The work is motivated by the recent research activity on functionally graded materials (FGMs), i.e., materials with spatially varying properties tailored to satisfy particular engineering applications. The analog of the classic problem for a homogeneous isotropic rotating solid disk or cylinder is considered. The special case of a body with Young"s modulus depending on the radial coordinate only, and with constant Poisson"s ratio, is examined. For the case when the Young"s modulus has a power-law dependence on the radial coordinate, explicit exact solutions are obtained. It is shown that the stress response of the inhomogeneous disk (or cylinder) is significantly different from that of the homogeneous body. For example, the maximum radial and hoop stresses do not, in general, occur at the center as in the case for the homogeneous material. Furthermore, for the case where the Young"s modulus increases with radial distance from the center, it is shown that radially symmetric solutions exist provided the rate of growth of the Young"s modulus is, at most, cubic in the radial variable. It is also shown for the general inhomogeneous isotropic case how the material inhomogeneity may be tailored so that the radial and hoop stress are identical throughout the disk.

Two-dimensional stability problem for two interacting short fibers in a composite: In-line arrangement

A solution is found to a plane problem for a composite material reinforced with two in-line fibers and subjected to longitudinal compression. The problem formulation is based on the piecewise-homogeneous model and the three-dimensional theory of stability. The dependence of the critical strain and buckling mode on the distance between the fibers is studied for various mechanical and geometrical characteristics of the composite components.Translated from Prikladnaya Mekhanika, Vol. 40, No. 9, pp. 65–74, September 2004.     

Modelling of inhomogeneous turbulence in the absence of mean velocity gradients

In this paper we propose a new rational model for turbulent transport of Reynolds stresses and dissipation. For this purpose we first analyse some properties of diffused turbulence i.e. turbulence where dissipation is balanced by turbulent diffusion arising from inhomogeneity. Then we use some of these results to deduce some mathematical requirements that must be satisfied by any rational model and we show that they are not verified by available models. Consequently we derive a more general model taking into account the various properties of diffused turbulence.     

End Effects in Anti-plane Shear for an Inhomogeneous Isotropic Linearly Elastic Semi-infinite Strip

The purpose of this research is to further investigate the effects of material inhomogeneity on the decay of Saint-Venant end effects in linear isotropic elasticity. This is carried out within the context of anti-plane shear deformations of an inhomogeneous isotropic elastic solid. The mathematical issues involve the effects of spatial inhomogeneity on the decay rates of solutions to Dirichlet or Neumann boundary-value problems for a second-order linear elliptic partial differential equation with variable coefficients on a semi-infinite strip. In previous work [1], the elastic coefficients were assumed to be smooth functions of the transverse coordinate so that the material was inhomogeneous in the lateral direction only. Here we develop a new technique, based on a change of variable, to study generally inhomogeneous isotropic materials. The governing partial differential equation is transformed to a Helmholtz equation with a variable coefficient, which facilitates analysis of the influence of material inhomogeneity on the diffusion of end effects. For certain classes of inhomogeneous materials, an explicit optimal decay estimate is established. The results of this paper are applicable to continuously inhomogeneous materials and, in particular, to functionally graded materials.
