在质量块冲击作用下刚架大挠度响应的实验研究

本文报道刚架跨中受到以不同速度运动的质量块冲击时动态大挠度响应的实验研究工作,实验测取了冲击点位移、速度随时间变化的曲线及某些关键点的动态应变历史,由此描述了在响应过程中,质量块与刚架间动量动能的传递过程,找出了塑性区域形成和扩展的规律。研究表明:初始撞击接近于理想非弹性,动态荷载不宜简化为瞬时冲量,此时初始冲击动能与刚架所能吸收的最大弹性能之比即便很大,响应中弹性成分仍占有很大的比例,能量比率作为判断是否宜于采用刚塑性解答的条件已不再充分;刚架在初始撞击中吸收的能量和冲量与初始动能和动量之比,仅与刚架承受初始撞击的相当质量和冲击物质量之比有关,而与冲击速度无关,文中给出了二者的关系式。     

Dynamic and buckling analysis of a thin elastic-plastic square plate in a uniform temperature field

The nonlinear models of the elastic and elasticlinear strain-hardening square plates with four immovably simply-supported edges are established by employing Hamilton‘s Variational Principle in a uniform temperature field. The unilateral equilibrium equations satisfied by the plastically buckled equilibria are also established. Dynamics and stability of the elastic and plastic plates are investigated analytically and the buckled equilibria are investigated by employing Galerkin-Ritz‘s method. The vibration frequencies, the first critical temperature differences of instability or buckling, the elastically buckled equilibria and the extremes depending on the final loading temperature difference of the plastically buckled equillibria of the plate are obtained. The results indicate that the critical buckling value of the plastic plate is lower than its critical instability value and the critical value of its buckled equilibria turning back to the trivial equilibrium are higher than the value. However, three critical values of the elastic plate are equal. The unidirectional snap-through may occur both at the stress-strain boundary of elasticity and plasticity and at the initial stage of unloading of the plastic plate.

The extension of Beltrami's ellipsoid to anisotropic bodies

Summary The spectral decomposition of the compliance, stiffness, and failure tensors for transversely isotropic materials was studied and their characteristic values were calculated using the components of these fourth-rank tensors in a Cartesian frame defining the principal material directions. The spectrally decomposed compliance and stiffness or failure tensors for a transversely isotropic body (fiber-reinforced composite), and the eigenvalues derived from them define in a simple and efficient way the respective elastic eigenstates of the loading of the material. It has been shown that, for the general orthotropic or transversely isotropic body, these eigenstates consist of two double components, ₁ and ₂ which are shears (₂ being a simple shear and ₁, a superposition of simple and pure shears), and that they are associated with distortional components of energy. The remaining two eigenstates, with stress components ₃, and ₄, are the orthogonal supplements to the shear subspace of ₁ and ₂ and consist of an equilateral stress in the plane of isotropy, on which is superimposed a prescribed tension or compression along the symmetry axis of the material. The relationship between these superimposed loading modes is governed by another eigenquantity, the eigenangle .The spectral type of decomposition of the elastic stiffness or compliance tensors in elementary fourth-rank tensors thus serves as a means for the energy-orthogonal decomposition of the energy function. The advantage of this type of decomposition is that the elementary idempotent tensors to which the fourth-rank tensors are decomposed have the interesting property of defining energy-orthogonal stress states. That is, the stress-idempotent tensors are mutually orthogonal and at the same time collinear with their respective strain tensors, and therefore correspond to energy-orthogonal stress states, which are therefore independent of each other. Since the failure tensor is the limiting case for the respective _x, which are eigenstates of the compliance tensor S, this tensor also possesses the same remarkable property.An interesting geometric interpretation arises for the energy-orthogonal stress states if we consider the projections of _x in the principal₃D stress space. Then, the characteristic state ₂ vanishes, whereas stress states ₁, ₃ and ₄ are represented by three mutually orthogonal vectors, oriented as follows: The ₃ and ₄ lie on the principal diagonal plane (₃₁₂) with subtending angles equaling (–/2) and (-), respectively. On the positive principal ₃-axis, is the eigenangle of the orthotropic material, whereas the ₁-vector is normal to the (₃₁₂)-plane and lies on the deviatoric -plane. Vector ₂ is equal to zero.It was additionally conclusively proved that the four eigenvalues of the compliance, stiffness, and failure tensors for a transversely isotropic body, together with value of the eigenangle , constitute the five necessary and simplest parameters with which invariantly to describe either the elastic or the failure behavior of the body. The expressions for the _x-vector thus established represent an ellipsoid centered at the origin of the Cartesian frame, whose principal axes are the directions of the ₁-, ₃- and ₄-vectors. This ellipsoid is a generalization of the Beltrami ellipsoid for isotropic materials.Furthermore, in combination with extensive experimental evidence, this theory indicates that the eigenangle alone monoparametrically characterizes the degree of anisotropy for each transversely isotropic material. Thus, while the angle for isotropic materials is always equal to _i = 125.26° and constitutes a minimum, the angle || progressively increases within the interval 90–180° as the anisotropy of the material is increased. The anisotropy of the various materials, exemplified by their ratiosE _L/2G_L of the longitudinal elastic modulus to the double of the longitudinal shear modulus, increases rapidly tending asymptotically to very high values as the angle approaches its limits of 90 or 180°.     

Motion of a conductive piston in a channel with variable inductance

The motion of a conductive piston in the channel of a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) generator of the conduction type with compound electrodes is considered. Formulas are obtained for calculation of the energy characteristics of the pulse MHD generator for various operational regimes. It is shown that in an MHD generator at magnetic Reynolds number values Re_m = ₀u₀ 1 (where ₀ is the permeability of a vacuum, is the electrical conductivity of the piston, u₀ is the initial velocity, and is the characteristic dimension), the energy transferred to an ohmic load may significantly exceed the values obtained in [1, 2]. Conditions for high-efficiency transformation of piston kinetic energy to electrical energy are considered for limiting values of the ratio of the latter to initial magnetic field energy in the generator channel.Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi Mekhaniki i Tekhnicheskoi Fiziki, No. 6, pp. 41–46, November–December, 1973.The authors thank V.

Two dimensional wave front shape induced in a homogeneously strained elastic body by a point perturbing body force

Summary The shape of The two (spatial) dimensional wave front induced in a finitely strained elastic body by an impulsive point body force is investigated. The elastic body is characterized by three parameters which are restricted by the requirement that the governing system of equations be strictly hyperbolic. The wave front is constructed as the envelope of a one parameter family of straight lines. For different combinations of , and the wave front is shown to have zero, two or four cuspoidal triangles. The interiors of these triangles are found to be lacunas, where the associated displacements vanish identically.     

Neck propagation as a shock wave

Neck propagation in the stretching of elastic solid filaments having a yield point was analyzed using the space one-dimensional thin filament governing equations developed previously by the authors and other researchers. Constitutive model for the filament was assumed to be expressible as engineering tensile stress(X) (tensile force) given as a function of elongational strain with the(X) curve having a yield point maxima followed by a minima and a breaking point greater than the yield point maxima. Also incorporated into the model is the hysteresis of irreversible plastic deformation. When inertia is taken into consideration, the thin filament equations were found to reduce to the nonlinear wave equation ² (X)/ ² =C ₁ ² X/ ² where is Lagrangean space coordinate, is time, andC ₁ is inertia coefficient. The above nonlinear wave equation yields a solutionX(, ) having a stepwise discontinuity inX which propagates along the axis. The zero speed limit of the step wave solution was found to describe the above neck propagation occurring in solid filaments. Furthermore, it was recognized that the nonlinear wave equation was known for many years to also govern the plastic shock wave which propagates axially within a metal rod subjected to a very strong impact on its end. The one-dimensional atmospheric shock wave also was known to be governed by the nonlinear wave equation upon making certain simplifying assumptions. The above and other evidences lead to the conclusion that neck propagation occurring in the extension of solid filament obeying the above(X) function can be formally described as a shock wave.     

Alloy separation of a binary mixture in a stressed elastic sphere

We consider the static state of a spherical isotropic binary elastic solid mixture whose boundary is given a uniform radial displacement.

Thus, we consider the nonconvex problem of minimizing the potential energy of the body, among all spatial concentration and displacement fields, subject to a given boundary displacement and a fixed amount of component materials. Assuming spherical symmetry, we find that the two component materials must be separated in the optimal state of minimum potential energy. The harder material forms the central core of the sphere, and the softer material is segregated into a surrounding shell. This behavior is remindful of a general notion in metallurgy that in the casting of materials the harder material tends to migrate toward the center.Partial support of the NSF under grant MSS-9024637 and Alliant Techsystems Inc. is gratefully acknowledged.Professor R.

Experimental Investigation of the Nonlinear Response of a Hanging Cable. Part I: Local Analysis

An experimental model of an elastic cable carrying eight concentrated masses and hanging at in-phase or out-of-phase vertically moving supports is considered. The system parameters are adjusted to approximately realize multiple 1:1 and 2:1 internal resonance conditions involving planar and nonplanar, symmetric and antisymmetric modes. Response measurements are made in various frequency ranges including meaningful external resonance conditions. A local analysis of the system response is made on the basis of numerous amplitude-frequency and amplitude-forcing plots obtained in different ranges of the control parameter space. Attention is mainly devoted to the detection of the main features of the regular motions exhibited by the system, and to the analysis of the relevant phenomena of nonlinear modal interaction, competition, and local bifurcation between planar and nonplanar regular responses. The resulting picture appears very rich and varied.     

Flow of a non-Newtonian fluid between intersecting planes of which one is moving

We study the flow of an Oldroyd-B fluid between two intersecting plates, one of which is fixed and the other moving along its plane. This problem was first considered by Strauss (1975) for the Maxwell fluid using a similarity transformation. We find that even in the case of a Maxwell fluid, which can be obtained by setting a specific parameter, say , in the Oldroyd-B model to zero, our results disagree with those of Strauss (1975). We find that circulating cells are present, adjacent to the stationary plate while Strauss (1975) finds them adjacent to the moving plate. We also delineate the effect of the coefficient , which is a measure of the elasticity of the flow, on the flow pattern. We find that an increase in the elastic parameter reduces the cellular structure.     

Normal and oblique collisions of a vortex ring with a wall

The oblique collision of a vortex ring with a solid wall, atRe=/=1389, has been analysed by the direct simulation of the Navier-Stokes equations in Cartesian coordinates. In accordance with a previous experimental study [1], the secondary vorticity produced at the wall is organized into a loop-like vortex in the region of the ring furthest away from the wall. As the ring approaches the wall, the region closest is subjected to a high rate of stretching which increases the vorticity in the core. The vorticity gradients along the core generate bi-helical vortex lines continually displaced towards the region of the ring furthest away from the wall. The analysis of the vorticity and straining fields revealed that the pressure gradient along the core is responsible for the convective motion that displaces these vortex lines and accumulates secondary vorticity in the region far from the wall. This vorticity rolls up and forms a secondary structure which by self-induction moves away from the wall.The fundamental role of the differential stretching has been demonstrated by comparing the case of oblique collision with that of normal collision and with the collision of a two-dimensional vortex pair with an oblique wall.

Sommario L'interazione di un vortice ad anello con una parete obliqua, aRe=1389, è stata analizzata mediante la simulazione diretta delle equazioni di Navier-Stokes in coordinate cartesiane. In accordo con un precedente esperimento [1] è stato evidenziato che la vorticità secondaria, prodotta alla parete, si organizza in una strutura vorticosa a loop nella regione dell'anello più lontana dalla parete. Quando il vortice si avvicina alla parete, la parte più vicina è soggetta ad un'elevata deformazione che aumenta il valore della vorticità nel core. La distribuzione non uniforme di vorticità lungo il core del vortice genera delle linee di vorticità elicoidali che vengono transportate verso la regione dell'anello più lontana dalla parete. L'analisi dei campi di vorticità e di deformazione ha rivelato che il gradiente di pressione, dovuto al campo di deformazione non uniforme lungo il core del vortice, è responsabile di un moto convettivo che trasporta le linee di vorticità ed accumula la vorticità secondaria nella regione del vortice più lontana dalla parete, dove la struttura secondaria viene generata.Il ruolo fondamentale della deformazione non uniforme è stato evidenziato mediante il confronto della collisione obliqua coni casi di collisione normale e di collisione di una coppia di vortici bidimensionali con una parete obliqua.

     

On the jumping problems of a circular thin plate with initial deflection

In this paper, the jumping problems of a circular thin plate with initial deflection are studied by using the method of two variables^[3],[4] proposed by Jiang Fu-ru and the method of the normal perturbation (in this paper (1.1), (1.2)). We obtain Nth-order uniformly valid asymptotic expansion of the solution of this problem ((1.66), (1.67)). When the initial deflection vanishes the solution of a circular thinplate with initial deflection is reduced to the solution of the problems of the nonlinear bending of a circular thin plate^[6]. If the initial deflection is largish and the signs of the initial deflection with the intensity of the transverse load are opposite, when the intensity of the transverse load reaches a certain value, the circular thin plate with initial deflection should produce the jumping phenomenon^[8].     

Solutions for the anisotropic elastic wedge at critical wedge angles

The classical solution for an isotropic elastic wedge loaded by uniform tractions on the sides of the wedge becomes infinite everywhere in the wedge when the wedge angle 2 equals , 2 or 2_* where tan 2_* = 2_*. When the wedge is loaded by a concentrated couple at the wedge apex the solution also becomes infinite at 2 = 2_*. A similar situation occurs when the wedge is anisotropic except that 2_* is governed by a different equation and depends on material properties. Solutions which do not become infinite everywhere in the wedge are available for isotropic elastic wedges. In this paper we present solutions for the anisotropic elastic wedge at critical wedge angles. The main feature of the solutions obtained here is that they are in a real form even though Stroh's complex formalism is employed.     

Existence and Uniqueness of Time-Periodic Physically Reasonable Navier-Stokes Flow Past a Body

Let be a three-dimensional exterior domain of class C^2,, 0<<1. Assume that a Navier-Stokes liquid is moving in under the action of a body force F that is time-periodic of period T, and that the velocity of the liquid is zero at spatial infinity. In this paper we show that, if F satisfies suitable conditions, and its norm, in appropriate function spaces, is sufficiently small, there is at least one time-periodic strong solution. Furthermore, the velocity field v of such a solution decays to zero for large |x| as |x|^–1 and its spatial gradient decays as |x|^–2, both uniformly in time. In addition, the pressure p decays like |x|^–2 and its gradient like |x|^–3, for almost all t[0,T]. In the special case where F is time-independent, these solutions are also time-independent and coincide with Finns physically reasonable solutions [4]. Moreover, we show that our time-periodic solutions are unique in a very large class, namely, the class of time-periodic weak solutions satisfying the energy inequality and with corresponding pressure fields verifying mild summability conditions in ×[0,T].     

Perfectly plastic stress field at a rapidly propagating plane-stress crack tip

Under the condition that all the perfectly plastic stress components at a crack tip are the functions of only, making use of the Treasca yield condition, steady-state moving equations and elastic perfectly-plastic constitutive equations, we derive the generally analytical expressions of perfectly palstic stress field at a rapidly propagating plane-stress crack tip. Applying these generally analytical expressions to the concrete crack, we obtain the analytical expressions of perfectly plastic stress field at the rapidly propagating tips of models I and II plane-stress cracks.     

Stability of elastic bodies with nonmonotone multivalued boundary conditions of the quasidifferential type

Necessary conditions for the stability of elastic bodies subjected to nonmonotone multivalued boundary conditions are derived. These conditions are assumed to be derived from nonconvex and nonsmooth, quasidifferentiable energy functions. A difference convex approximation of the potential energy function is written based on an appropriate quasidifferential formulation. Under appropriate assumptions for the convex and the concave parts we prove the existence of at least one nontrivial solution to the nonlinear eigenvalue problem.     

The stress state of an elastic orthotropic medium with a penny-shaped crack

The static-equilibrium problem for an elastic orthotropic space with a circular (penny-shaped) crack is solved. The stress state of an elastic medium is represented as a superposition of the principal and perturbed states. To solve the problem, Willis approach is used, which is based on the triple Fourier transform in spatial variables, the Fourier-transformed Greens function for an anisotropic material, and Cauchys residue theorem. The contour integrals obtained are evaluated using Gauss quadrature formulas. The results for particular cases are compared with those obtained by other authors. The influence of anisotropy on the stress intensity factors is studied.__________Translated from Prikladnaya Mekhanika, Vol. 40, No. 12, pp. 76–83, December 2004.     

On the localness of the spectral energy transfer in turbulence

By utilizing available experimental data for net energy transfer spectra for homogeneous turbulence, contributions P(, ) to the energy transfer at a wavenumber from various other wavenumbers are calculated. This is done by fitting a truncated power-exponential series in and to the experimental data for the net energy transfer T(), and using known properties of P(, ). Although the contributions P(, ) obtained by using this procedure are not unique, the results obtained by using various assumptions do not differ significantly. It seems clear from the results that for a region where the energy entering a wavenumber band dominates that leaving, much of the energy entering the band comes from wavenumbers which are about an order of magnitude smaller. That is, the energy transfer is rather nonlocal. This result is not significantly dependent on Reynolds number (for turbulence Reynolds numbers based on microscale from 3 to 800). For lower wavenumbers, where more energy leaves than enters a wavenumber band, the energy transfer into the band is more local, but much of the energy then leaves at distant wavenumbers.

Übersicht Die Fehlervorhersage eines einachsigen Fadenverbundwerkstoffes mit metallischer Matrix erfordert die Kenntnis des nichtlinearen elastisch-plastischen Verhaltens in mikroskopischer Abmessung. Als Fallstudie wurde ein spezieller Verbundwerkstoff mit einem FEM-Programm untersucht. Im plastischen Bereich wurde das klassische, v. Mises Potential' mit dem neuen Übergangsfließpotential unter Berücksichtigung der plastischen Volumendehnung verglichen. Unter transversaler Normalbelastung zeigte der Verbund deutliche Unterschiede in der Zunahme und der Ausdehnung der lokalen plastischen Zonen. Alle kritischen Verformungsstadien wurden von dem Übergangsfließpotential bei geringerer Belastung erreicht.

Numerical investigation of the elastic-plastic behaviour of a fibre-reinforced composite with a metallic matrix

Summary Failure prediction of unidirectional fibre-reinforced composite with a metallic matrix needs knowledge about the nonlinear elastic-plastic behaviour in a microscopic scale. A specific composite was investigated using a FEM-program as a case study. In the plastic range the classical v. Mises Potential was compared with the new Transition Flow Potential, taking into account the plastic volume dilatation. Subjected to transverse normal loading the composite showed evident differences in the increase and the spread of locally plastic regions. All critical deformation states were reached by the Transition Flow Potential at lower loading.

     

Overall stability of pin-jointed frameworks after the onset of elastic buckling

Conclusions The total potential energy surfaces (V-surfaces) in the adjacent neighborhood of the initial position of the two perfect pin-jointed frames studied in examples 1 and 2 are confined to a three-dimensional space since only two of the members were assumed to be on the point of buckling. If however more than two members of a frame can contract flexurally, the representation of the V-surfaces is not so simple. The negative regions of the V-surface are of primary interest in the study of the post-buckling hehaviour of a frame since then an accelerated motion of the system away from the initial position of the frame may ensue. Therefore in the case of a multi-dimensional surface the location of the negative regions of the surface and the evaluation of the corresponding unstable modes of the given frame may be carried out more conveniently analytically using the expressions given by (2.8) and (2.9).In order to prove that the system is in unstable equilibrium, when the frame is on the point of buckling, it suffices to find at least one adjacent position for which V is negative. This may be a much easier task in the case of a complex frame than representing the entire shape of the surface in a multi-dimensional adjacent space so that the choice of a particular post-buckling mode or the possibility of a snap-through from one mode into another may be fully understood. Similarly, in the case of stable equilibrium of the system when a given frame is on the point of buckling, the result may be obtained quickly if the test for positive definiteness of the quadratic from in the expression for V is carried out.The effect of initial imperfections in the members becomes apparent on comparing the loaddisplacement characteristic of the frame in example 1 with the slope to the equilibrium path for the perfect frame. It is observed that adequate agreement between the two is established when the buckling mode is more fully developed.Then clearly, the initial imperfections in the members can be expected to affect the initial regions of the total potential energy surfaces, but agreement between such surfaces for perfect as well as in perfect frames may be adequate after the initial distortions of the imperfect frame have been overcome.Consequently the V surfaces as well as the stability criterion formulated for perfect frames by expressions 2.10 and 2.11 will in general give an indication of the post-buckling behavior of pin-jointed elastic frames when their members possess initial imperfections.This paper represents a part of the Investigation into the Post Buckling Behavior of Frames sponsored by the Aluminium Development Association of Great Britain and carried out by the author at Cambridge University from the years 1957 to 1960.
