Multiple axial cracks in a coated hollow cylinder due to thermal shock

The transient thermal stress problem of an inner-surface-coated hollow cylinder with multiple pre-existing surface cracks contained in the coating is considered. The transient temperature, induced thermal stress, and the crack tip stress intensity factor (SIF) are calculated for the cylinder via finite element method (FEM), which is exposed to convective cooling from the inner surface. As an example, the material pair of a chromium coating and an underlying steel substrate 30CrNi2MoVA is particularly evaluated. Numerical results are obtained for the stress intensity factors as a function of normalized quantities such as time, crack length, convection severity, material constants and crack spacing.     

Calculation of near-tip non-singular stresses for pressurized cracks

When the crack surfaces are traction-free, there is only one constant term T in the near-tip stress field, which contributes uniformly to the stress component acting in the direction parallel to the crack flank. As to pressurized cracks, the non-singular part of the asymptotic stresses appears to be more complicated and is no longer characterized only by the constant T. In this work, an effective numerical approach is developed for calculation of the non-singular parts of the asymptotic near-tip stresses under the action of nonuniform crack surface pressures. With this approach, the near-tip non-singular stress field can be accurately evaluated by direct use of regular numerical methods such as finite elements.

Multiple cracks in thermoelectroelastic bimaterials

The formulation for thermal stress and electric displacement in an infinite thermopiezoelectric plate with an interface and multiple cracks is presented. Using Green's function approach and the principle of superposition, a system of singular integral equations for the unknown temperature discontinuity defined on each crack face is developed and solved numerically. The formulation can then be used to calculate some fracture parameters such as the stress–electric displacement and strain energy density factor. The direction of crack growth for many cracks in thermopiezoelectric bimaterials is predicted by way of the strain energy density theory. Numerical results for stress–electric displacement factors and crack growth direction at a particular crack tip in two crack system of bimaterials are presented to illustrate the application of the proposed formulation.     

Nonstationary heat transfer in a hollow composite cylinder

Transient waves in an inhomogeneous hollow infinite cylinder

Effects on transient waves of circumferential and radial inhomogeneity are studied in a plane-strain hollow cylinder. A periodic circumferential inhomogeneity modulating a constant value is analyzed adopting the Galerkin method where trial functions are chosen as the axisymmetric and asymmetric modes of the homogeneous cylinder. A periodic radial inhomogeneity is analyzed by dividing the cylinder into annular segments of constant width. A stepwise variation in modulus is assumed where modulus is constant over each segment. Adopting transfer matrices, continuity of state variables at interfaces of segments establishes the global dynamic equilibrium of the segmented cylinder. The static-dynamic superposition method is employed to solve for transient response.     

Finite elastoplastic deformation of an internally pressurized hollow sphere

This paper considers large elastoplastic deformations of an internally pressurized hollow sphere of dilatant soil. A complete analytical solution for the expansion of a hollow sphere is developed. The soil is modelled as an elastic-perfectly plastic material obeying the Mohr-Coulomb yield criterion. A non-associated plastic flow rule is used and therefore the dilation of the material is fully taken into account. Closed form solutions are obtained for the stresses and the elastic-plastic deformations of arbitrary magnitude when a hollow sphere of soil is subjected to constant external pressure and monotonically increasing internal pressure. A selection of numerical results is presented to indicate the effects of various key parameters     

Thermal stresses in a rotating non-homogeneous orthotropic hollow cylinder

 In this paper the radial deformation and the corresponding stresses in a non-homogeneous hollow elastic cylinder rotating about its axis with a constant angular velocity is investigated. The material of the cylinder is assumed to the non-homogeneous and cylindrically orthotropic. The system of fundamental equations is solved by means of a finite difference method and the numerical calculations are carried out for the temperature, the components of displacement and the components of stress with the time t and through the thickness of the cylinder. The results indicate that the effect of inhomogeneity is very pronounced. Received on 21 December 2000

Double-layered piezo-thermoelastic hollow cylinder under some coupled loadings

In the present paper, a long thick-walled piezo-thermoelastic hollow cylinder with double layers is studied. The effects of temperature on the performance of the cylinder are obtained. Based on the theory of elasticity, the exact solutions of the cylinder under some coupled loadings are found. In the present paper, differences of a piezoelectric parameter between the two layers is taken into account. For comparison, numerical results have been carried out for both double-layered and graded cylinders. At the end of the present paper some discussions are addressed.     

Elastodynamic solution of a non-homogeneous orthotropic hollow cylinder

A theoretical method for analyzing the axisymmetric plane strain elastodynamic problem of a non-homogeneous orthotropic hollow cylinder is developed. Firstly, a new dependent variable is introduced to rewrite the governing equation, the boundary conditions and the initial conditions. Secondly, a special function is introduced to transform the inhomogeneous boundary conditions to homogeneous ones. By virtue of the orthogonal expansion technique, the equation with respect to the time variable is derived, of which the solution can be obtained. The displacement solution is finally obtained, which can be degenerated in a rather straightforward way into the solution for a homogeneous orthotropic hollow cylinder and isotropic solid cylinder as well as that for a non-homogeneous isotropic hollow cylinder. Using the present method, integral transform can be avoided and it can be used for hollow cylinders with arbitrary thickness and subjected to arbitrary dynamic loads. Numerical results are presented for a non-homogeneous orthotropic hollow cylinder subjected to dynamic internal pressure.
