Chaos in a shape memory two-bar truss

The study of the structural response of two-bar trusses may be very helpful to understand some of the main stability characteristics of framed structures, as well as of flat arches and of many other physical phenomena associated with bifurcation buckling. This article is concerned with the dynamic response of a shape memory two-bar truss, which is an interesting example of a structural system that exhibits both kinematic and constitutive non-linearities. A polynomial constitutive model is assumed to describe the behavior of the shape memory bars. Free and forced responses are investigated. Numerical simulations show that the system can easily reach a chaotic response.     

A fast algorithm for soil dynamics calculations by wavelet decomposition

Summary The article presents a fast numerical algorithm for calculating the response of a halfspace under any surface loads. Under certain conditions there exists an analytical solution to the problem in the Fourier domain. To get the desired response, a numerical inverse Fourier transform of this analytic solution has to be made. By using a wavelet decomposition, the proposed algorithm can reduce the calculation time significantly, thus allowing the computation of complex problems. As an example, the response of the beam-halfspace coupled system under moving load is presented. Received 6 March 1997; accepted for publication 20 May 1997     

Rheological discrimination and characterization of carrageenans and starches by Fourier transform-rheology in the non-linear viscous regime

Classical rheological methods are often insufficient to characterize and to differentiate the non-linear rheological behavior of polysaccharide systems such as carrageenan or starch. In this article the non-linear rheological method of characteristic functions is used to discriminate between the different polysaccharides. This method is based on the Fourier transform-rheology (FT-rheology). The response of a sample is decomposed using simple characteristic functions. We show that there are differences in the response of a number of carrageenan and starch samples, which are not distinguishable with classical rheometry.

Constitutive model for third harmonic generation in elastic solids

In this article, we present a new constitutive model for studying ultrasonic third harmonic generation in elastic solids. The model is hyperelastic in nature with two parameters characterizing the linear elastic material response and two other parameters characterizing the nonlinear response. The limiting response of the model as the nonlinearity parameters tend to zero is shown to be the well-known St Venant–Kirchhoff model. Also, the symmetric response of the model in tension and compression and its role in third harmonic generation is shown. Numerical simulations are carried out to study third harmonic generation in materials characterized by the proposed constitutive model. Predicted third harmonic guided wave generation reveals an increasing third harmonic content with increasing nonlinearity. On the other hand, the second harmonics are independent of the nonlinearity parameters and are generated due to the geometric nonlinearity. The feasibility of determining the nonlinearity parameters from third harmonic measurements is qualitatively discussed.     

The crossover between linear and non-linear mechanical behaviour in polymer solutions as detected by Fourier-transform rheology

 The application of oscillatory shear strain leads, in the non-linear regime, to the appearance of higher harmonic contributions in the shear stress response. These contributions can be analyzed as spectra in Fourier space, with respect to different frequencies, amplitudes and phase angles. In this article, we present an application of this new characterization method to a solution of the linear homopolymer polyisobutylene. The degree of non-linear response during oscillatory shear is quantified using the normalized intensity of the third harmonic contribution. We were able to show experimentally on polyisobutylene that there is an immediate onset of the non-linear response even for very small shear strain amplitudes.

Dynamics of premixed confined swirling flames

Considerable effort is currently being extended to examine the fundamental mechanisms of combustion instabilities and develop methods allowing predictions of these phenomena. One central aspect of this problem is the dynamical response of the flame to incoming perturbations. This question is examined in the present article, which specifically considers the response of premixed swirling flames to perturbations imposed on the upstream side of the flame in the feeding manifold. The flame response is characterized by measuring the unsteady heat release induced by imposed velocity perturbations. A flame describing function is defined by taking the ratio of the relative heat release rate fluctuation to the relative velocity fluctuation. This quantity is determined for a range of frequencies and for different levels of incoming velocity perturbations. The flame dynamics is also documented by calculating conditional phase averages of the light emission from the flame and taking the Abel transform of these average images to obtain the flame geometry at various instants during the cycle of oscillation. These data can be useful to the determination of possible regimes of instability. To cite this article: P. Palies et al., C. R. Mecanique 337 (2009).     

Response of periodic structures due to moving loadsRéponse de structures périodiques à des charges mobiles

A method is proposed to calculate the response of periodic structures subjected to moving loads. It is based on the Floquet decomposition which allows the restriction of the analysis for the overall system to a generic cell. The main contribution of the approach presented hereafter is that the response is directly deduced from transfer functions in the space-wavenumber domain calculated in an unbounded generic cell. Moreover, the equivalence of this new solution with the response of invariant structures obtained using Fourier transforms is established. To cite this article: H. Chebli et al., C. R.

Vibro-Acoustic Response of a Pipe Excited by a Turbulent Internal Flow

This article presents an experimental study of the vibro-acoustic response of a pipe excited by a fully-developed turbulent air flow. First, the wall pressure field acting on the internal pipe wall is investigated. The power spectral density of the wall pressure fluctuations is analyzed after cancellation of contaminating background noise. The convection velocity and correlation lengths are calculated from measured cross-spectra, and the cross-spectra are expressed in Corcos model form. Second, the vibro-acoustic response of the pipe is analyzed by referring to the structural modes of the pipe. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.

Contact response of ceramics

Instrumented indentation mechanics and its applications to ceramics characterisation are described and discussed. Instrumented nanoindentation has become an outstanding tool for characterising surfaces and is routinely used in industry and university. The article reviews important procedures and concepts that have proved to be very useful to analyse the contact response of ceramics (elastic–plastic loading, indentation strains and stresses, crack generation, composite response of coated pieces). Examples are used to illustrate the very wide range of studies that can be carried out.

Nonlinear behavior of matrix-inclusion composites under high confining pressure: application to concrete and mortar

This paper is devoted to a micromechanics-based simulation of the response of concrete to hydrostatic and oedometric compressions. Concrete is described as a composite made up of a cement matrix in which rigid inclusions are embedded. The focus is put on the role of the interface between matrix and inclusion which represent the interfacial transition zone (ITZ). A plastic behavior is considered for both the matrix and the interfaces. The effective response of the composite is derived from the modified secant method adapted to the situation of imperfect interfaces. To cite this article: T.H. Le et al., C. R.

Seismic response of a set of blocks partially imbedded in soft soilRéponse sismique d'un ensemble de blocs partiellement encastrés dans un terrain mou

The seismic response of a set of ten non-equally spaced, non-equally sized, homogeneous blocks partially imbedded in a soft soil layer overlying a hard halfspace is studied numerically and shown to be generally larger, in terms of amplitude, duration and spatial variability than that of the ground in the presence of one block or in the absence of blocks. This is qualitatively similar to observed seismic response in the past at sites such as Mexico City and suggests that the built portion of cities may, under certain conditions, play a significant role in the global seismic response of a city.

On the representation of Prandtl-Reuss tensors within the framework of multiplicative elastoplasticity

This article presents some aspects of the formulation of finite strain elastoplasticity based on the multiplicative decomposition of the deformation gradient. A “canonical” structure of multiplicative elastoplasticity is discussed characterized by a geometrical setting relative to the intermediate configuration in terms of mixed-variant tensors and the exploitation of fundamental dissipation principles. The symmetric fourth-order elastoplastic moduli (so-called ‘Prandtl-Reuss-Tensors’ of the associative theory) appear as a consequence of the assumed metric-dependence of the flow criterion function in a characteristic structure which seems to be typical for large strain multiplicative elastoplasticity. Particular representations of “Prandtl-Reuss tensors” are outlined for isotropic response as well as for decoupled volumetric-isochoric stress response.     

Eléments finis stochastiques en élasticité linéaireA stochastic finite element method in linear mechanics

The stochastic finite element method presented in this Note consists in representing in a probabilistic form the response of a linear mechanical system whose material properties and loading are random. Each input random variable is expanded into a Hermite polynomial series in standard normal random variables. The response (e.g., the nodal displacement vector) is expanded onto the so-called polynomial chaos. The coefficients of the expansion are obtained by a Galerkin-type method in the space of probability. To cite this article: B. Sudret et al., C. R. Mecanique 332 (2004).     

Parametrically Excited Vibration of a Timoshenko Beam on Random Viscoelastic Foundation jected to a Harmonic Moving Load

The vibration response of a Timoshenko beam supported by a viscoelastic foundation with randomly distributed parameters along the beam length and jected to a harmonic moving load, is studied. By means of the first-order two-dimensional regular perturbation method and employing appropriate Green's functions, the dynamic response of the beam consisting of the mean and variance of the deflection and of the bending moment are obtained analytically in integral forms. Results of a field measurement for a test track are utilized to model the uncertainty of the foundation parameters. A frequency analysis is carried out and the effect of the load speed on the response is studied. It is found that the covariance functions of the stiffness and the loss factor both have the shape of an exponential function multiplied by a cosine function. Furthermore, it is shown that in each frequency response there is a peak value for the frequency, which changes inversely with the load speed. It is also found that the peak value of the mean and also standard deviation of the deflection and bending moment can be a decreasing or increasing function of the load speed depending on its frequency.

Multiscale mass-spring models of carbon nanotube foams

This article is concerned with the mechanical properties of dense, vertically aligned CNT foams subject to one-dimensional compressive loading. We develop a discrete model directly inspired by the micromechanical response reported experimentally for CNT foams, where infinitesimal portions of the tubes are represented by collections of uniform bi-stable springs. Under cyclic loading, the given model predicts an initial elastic deformation, a non-homogeneous buckling regime, and a densification response, accompanied by a hysteretic unloading path. We compute the dynamic dissipation of such a model through an analytic approach. The continuum limit of the microscopic spring chain defines a mesoscopic dissipative element (micro-meso transition) which represents a finite portion of the foam thickness. An upper-scale model formed by a chain of non-uniform mesoscopic springs is employed to describe the entire CNT foam. A numerical approximation illustrates the main features of the proposed multiscale approach. Available experimental results on the compressive response of CNT foams are fitted with excellent agreement.     

Synchronization between fractional-order Ravinovich–Fabrikant and Lotka–Volterra systems

This article examines the synchronization performance between two fractional-order systems, viz., the Ravinovich?CFabrikant chaotic system as drive system and the Lotka?CVolterra system as response system. The chaotic attractors of the systems are found for fractional-order time derivatives described in Caputo sense. Numerical simulation results which are carried out using Adams?CBoshforth?CMoulton method show that the method is reliable and effective for synchronization of nonlinear dynamical evolutionary systems. Effects on synchronization time due to the presence of fractional-order derivative are the key features of the present article.
