Dynamical formation of cavity in a composed hyper-elastic sphere

The dynamical formation of cavity in a hyper-elastic sphere composed of two materials with the incompressible strain energy function, subjected to a suddenly applied uniform radial tensile boundary dead-load, was studied following the theory of finite deformation dynamics. Besides a trivial solution corresponding to the homogeneous static state, a cavity forms at the center of the sphere when the tensile load is larger than its critical value. An exact differential relation between the cavity radius and the tensile land was obtained. It is proved that the evolution of cavity radius with time displays nonlinear periodic oscillations. The phase diagram for oscillation, the maximum amplitude, the approximate period and the critical load were all discussed.     

Dynamical formation of cavity in transversely isotropic hyper-elastic spheres

The cavity formation in a radial transversely isotropic hyper-elastic sphere of an incompressible Ogden material, subjected to a suddenly applied uniform radial tensile boundary dead-load, is studied fllowing the theory of finite deformation dynamics. A cavity forms at the center of the sphere when the tensile load is greater than its critical value. It is proved that the evolution of the cavity radius with time follows that of nonlinear periodic oscillations.

幂强化材料和超弹性材料组合球体中孔穴的动态生成

在简单加载条件下,研究幂强化材料和超弹性材料组合球体中的动态孔穴生成和增长问题.首先在有限变形动力学的框架下建立了相应的非线性数学模型,得到了应力的表达式,利用变量变换的方法求得了外加载荷和孔穴半径之间的一个精确的微分关系式.证明了当突加载荷超过其临界值时,球体内部有孔穴的突然生成,并随时间呈现非线性的周期振动.通过数值计算,分析了材料参数和球体的半径比对孔穴生成和增长的影响,并与相应的静态结果进行了比较.结果发现,惯性力的影响降低孔穴生成的临界载荷,而且材料的塑性对孔穴生成和增长有明显的影响.
