Analytic solutions of a reducible strain gradient elasticity model for solid cylinder with a cavity and its application in zonal failure

In this work, the reducibility condition of the fourth-order equilibrium equation in the strain gradient elasticity (SGE) model for solid cylinder with a cavity is obtained. When the reducibility condition is satisfied, the analytic displacement, generalized radial stress, and generalized angular stress can be solved out, and according to the higher-order coefficients, internal length scale, and Lamé constants, the displacement, generalized radial stress, and generalized angular stress are classified into four types: (1) conventional elasticity solution, (2) quasiperiodic SGE solution, (3) monotonous SGE solution, and (4) non-real-number solution. Quasiperiodic generalized radial stress and generalized angular stress are used to explain the occurrence of zonal failure of surrounding rock of a circular roadway. Numerical analysis with MATLAB is applied to study the influence of loading on zonal failure of surrounding rock of a circular raodway.

The vibration and stability of non-homogeneous orthotropic conical shells with clamped edges subjected to uniform external pressures

In this paper an analytical procedure is given to study the free vibration and stability characteristics of homogeneous and non-homogeneous orthotropic truncated and complete conical shells with clamped edges under uniform external pressures. The non-homogeneous orthotropic material properties of conical shells vary continuously in the thickness direction. The governing equations according to the Donnell’s theory are solved by Galerkin’s method and critical hydrostatic and lateral pressures and fundamental natural frequencies have been found analytically. The appropriate formulas for homogeneous orthotropic and isotropic conical shells and for cylindrical shells made of homogeneous and non-homogeneous, orthotropic and isotropic materials are found as a special case. Several examples are presented to show the accuracy and efficiency of the formulation. The closed-form solutions are verified by accurate different solutions. Finally, the influences of the non-homogeneity, orthotropy and the variations of conical shells characteristics on the critical lateral and hydrostatic pressures and natural frequencies are investigated, when Young’s moduli and density vary together and separately. The results obtained for homogeneous cases are compared with their counterparts in the literature.

The breaking of a non-homogeneous fiber embedded in an infinite non-homogeneous medium

The torsion of an infinite non-homogeneous elastic cylindrical fiber, containing a penny-shaped crack embedded in an infinite non-homogeneous elastic material is considered. The cylinder and elastic medium have different shear moduli. Using integral transformation techniques the solution of the problem is reduced to the solution of dual integral equations. Later on the solution of the dual integral equations is transformed into the solution of a Fredholm integral equation of the second kind, which is solved numerically. Closed form expressions are obtained for the stress intensity factor and numerical values for the stress intensity factors are graphed to demonstrate the effect of non-homogeneity of the fiber and infinite medium. In the end the stress singularity is obtained when the crack touches the infinite non-homogeneous medium (matrix).     

Investigation on a rotating FGPM circular disk under a coupled hygrothermal field

In this paper, the distributions of the temperature, moisture, displacement and stress of a functionally graded piezoelectric material (FGPM) circular disk rotating around its axis at a constant angular velocity under a coupled hygrothermal field are presented by a numerical method. The material properties of the FGPM circular disk are assumed to vary along the radial coordinate exponentially. First, the coupled hygrothermal field along the radius of a rotating circular disk is achieved by solving the coupled hygrothermal equations, and then the dynamic equilibrium is solved by utilizing the finite difference method. Finally, numerical results show the effects of functionally graded index, inner radius, angular speed and hygrothermal index on the hygrothermal behaviors of the FGPM circular disk. The results can be useful for the optimal design of rotating FGPM circular disks under a coupled hygrothermal field.     

Vibration Analysis of Gyroscopic Systems

Mechanical structures which can vibrate about a state of mean rotation or translation may constitute gyroscopic dynamic systems that are related by the mathematical similarity of their governing equations of motion. Considering as examples a rotating circular ring and an axially travelling string, the analogy of those systems is demonstrated. The linear vibrations obtained by superposing small perturbations on the stationary solution are analyzed. Assuming time-varying speeds, the effect of non-constant stress resultants on the dynamic stability of gyroscopic systems is investigated and the results are compared to those found in literature where the stress resultants of axially moving continua are commonly taken as constant.

Free vibration of centrifugally stiffened axially functionally graded tapered Timoshenko beams using differential transformation and quadrature methods

The free bending vibration of rotating axially functionally graded (FG) Timoshenko tapered beams (TTB) with different boundary conditions are studied using Differential Transformation method (DTM) and differential quadrature element method of lowest order (DQEL). These two methods are capable of modelling any beam whose cross sectional area, moment of inertia and material properties vary along the beam. In order to verify the competency of these two methods, natural frequencies are obtained for problems by considering the effect of material non-homogeneity, taper ratio, shear deformation parameter, rotating speed parameter, hub radius and tip mass. The results are tabulated and compared with the previous published results wherever available.

Expansions at small Reynolds numbers for the flow past a porous circular cylinder

The purpose of this article is to use the method of matched asymptotic expansions (MMAE) in order to study the two-dimensional steady low Reynolds number flow of a viscous incompressible fluid past a porous circular cylinder. We assume that the flow inside the porous body is described by the continuity and Brinkman equations, and the velocity and boundary traction fields are continuous across the interface between the fluid and porous media. Formal expansions for the corresponding stream functions are used. We show that the force exerted by the exterior flow on the porous cylinder admits an asymptotic expansion with respect to low Reynolds numbers, whose terms depend on the characteristics of the porous cylinder. In addition, by considering Darcy's law for the flow inside the porous circular cylinder, an asymptotic formula for the force on the cylinder is obtained. Also, a porous circular cylinder with a rigid core inside is considered with Brinkman equation inside the porous region. Stress jump condition is used at the porous–liquid interface together with the continuity of velocity components and continuity of normal stress. Some particular cases, which refer to the low Reynolds number flow past a solid circular cylinder, have also been investigated.     

Mixed mode axisymmetric cracks in transversely isotropic infinite solid cylinders

The present study examined mixed mode cracking in a transversely isotropic infinite cylinder. The solutions to axisymmetric Volterra climb and glide dislocations in an infinite circular cylinder of the transversely isotropic material are first obtained. The solutions are represented in terms of the biharmonic stress function. Next, the problem of a transversely isotropic infinite cylinder with a set of concentric axisymmetric penny-shaped, annular, and circumferential cracks is formulated using the distributed dislocation technique. Two types of loadings are considered: (i) the lateral cylinder is loaded by two self-equilibrating distributed shear stresses; (ii) the curved surface of the cylinder is under the action of a distributed normal stress. The resulting integral equations are solved by using a numerical scheme to compute the dislocation density on the borders of the cracks. The dislocation densities are employed to determine stress intensity factors for axisymmetric interacting cracks. Finally, a good amount of examples are solved to depict the effect of crack type and location on the stress intensity factors at crack tips and interaction between cracks. Numerical solutions for practical materials are presented and the effect of transverse isotropy on stress intensity factors is discussed.     

Inversion transformation of Stokes flows bounded by parallel planes

The positive inversion transformation applied to a two-dimensional Stokes flow around bodies leads alike to a Stokes flow. This fact can be exploited to find new two-dimensional Stokes flow solutions around inverse bodies. Some features of this method, such as the relations between the reference and inverse fluid velocity fields, are presented followed by an application to examples of cellular flow between two parallel plates induced by rotating or translating cylinder. Thus hydrodynamic characteristics of flow around circular bodies obtained by inversion of the plates are straightforward deduced. Typical fluid flow patterns around two circular cylinders in contact placed in the centre of a rotating or a translating circular cylinder are thus illustrated.

Continuous finite element methods for Reissner-Mindlin plate problem

On triangle or quadrilateral meshes, two finite element methods are proposed for solving the Reissner-Mindlin plate problem either by augmenting the Galerkin formulation or modifying the plate-thickness. In these methods, the transverse displacement is approximated by conforming (bi)linear macroelements or (bi)quadratic elements, and the rotation by conforming (bi)linear elements. The shear stress can be locally computed from transverse displacement and rotation. Uniform in plate thickness, optimal error bounds are obtained for the transverse displacement, rotation, and shear stress in their natural norms. Numerical results are presented to illustrate the theoretical results.     

Propagation of Rayleigh waves in generalized magneto-thermoelastic orthotropic material under initial stress and gravity field

In this paper the influence of the gravity field, relaxation times and initial stress on propagation of Rayleigh waves in an orthotropic magneto-thermoelastic solid medium has been investigated. The solution of the more general equations are obtained for thermoelastic coupling by Helmoltz’s theorem. The frequency equation which determines Rayleigh wave velocity have been obtained. Many special cases are investigated from the present problem. Numerical results analyzing the frequency equation are obtained and presented graphically. Relevant results of previous investigations are deduced as special cases from these results. The results indicate that the effect of initial stress, magnetic field and gravity field are very pronounced.     

Sound transmission into a thick hollow cylinder with the fixed-end boundary condition

In this paper sound transmission through the air filled finite thick cylinders exposed to the different incident acoustic wave is studied. The effect of end boundary conditions on the noise reduction of finite cylinders is evaluated. The uniform incident wave and the wave radiated from monopole and dipole sources are used in this study. Three positions are considered for the dipole source. Every position for the dipole source causes symmetric or antisymmetric pressure distributions on the external surface of the cylinder in tangential or axial direction. For the purpose of sound transmission analysis the linear three-dimensional theory of elasticity utilizing the technique of variables separation for the infinite circular cylinders is used to analyze the vibration of finite circular cylinder. In these analyzes the stress continuity condition on the inner and outer surfaces of the cylinder is satisfied using orthogonalization technique and velocity continuity condition is exactly satisfied on the interfacial surfaces. The sound transmission evaluation is carried out for cylinders with various half-length to outer-radius ratios. The results show that in the case of the fixed-end cylinder, the effect of boundary conditions on the noise reduction can be neglected for the half-length to outer-radius ratio of more than 10. Comparing between the obtained results from different acoustic sources shows that the obtained noise reductions from the uniform acoustic wave are less than those obtained from the monopole and dipole sources.     

Rayleigh type wave dispersion in an incompressible functionally graded orthotropic half-space loaded by a thin fluid-saturated aeolotropic porous layer

This paper is concerned with the Rayleigh wave dispersion in an incompressible functionally graded orthotropic half-space loaded by a thin fluid-saturated aeolotropic porous layer under initial stress. Both the layer and half-space have subjected to the incompressible in nature. The particle motion of the Rayleigh type wave is elliptically polarized in the plane, which described by the normal to the surface and the focal point along with wave generation. The dispersion of waves refers typically to frequency dispersion, which means different wavelengths travel at a different velocity of phase. To deal with the analytical solution of displacement components of Rayleigh type waves in a layer over a half-space, we have taken the assistance of different methods like exponential, characteristic polynomial and undetermined coefficients. The dispersion relation has been derived based upon suitable boundary conditions. The finite difference scheme has been introduced to calculate the phase velocity and group velocity of the Rayleigh type waves. We also have derived the stability condition of the finite difference scheme (FDS) for the phase and group velocities. If a wave equation has to travel in the time domain, it is necessary to achieve both accuracy and stability requirements. In such cases, FDS is preferred because of its power, accuracy, reliability, rapidity, and flexibility. The effect of various parameters involved in the model like non-homogeneity, porosity, and internal pre-stress on the propagation of Rayleigh type waves have been studied in detail. Graphical representations for the effects of various parameters on the dispersion equation have been represented. Numerical results demonstrated the accuracy and versatility of the group and phase velocity depending on the stability ratio of the FDS.     

The contact problem when there are friction forces in the contact area for a three-component cylindrical base

The plane contact problem of elasticity theory on the interaction when there are friction forces in the contact area of an absolutely rigid cylinder (punch) with an internal surface of a cylindrical base, consisting of two circular cylindrical layers rigidly connected to one another and with an elastic space, is considered. The layers and space have different elastic constants. A vertical force and a counterclockwise torque, act on the punch, and the punch – base system is in a state of limiting equilibrium,. An exact integral equation of the first kind with a kernel represented in an explicit analytical form, is obtained for the first time for this problem using analytical calculation programs. The main properties of the kernel of the integral equation are investigated, and it is shown that the numerator and denominator of the kernel symbols can be represented in the form of polynomials in products of the powers of the moduli of the displacement of the layers and the half-space. A solution of the integral equation is constructed by the direct collocation method, which enables the solution of the problem to be obtained for practically any values of the initial parameters. The contact stress distributions, the dimensions of the contact area, the interconnection between the punch displacement and the forces and torques acting on it are calculated as a function of the geometrical and mechanical parameters of the layers and the space. The results of the calculations in special cases are compared with previously known results.     

Auto-balancing of a rotor with an orthotropic elastic shaft

The self-balancing of a statically unbalanced orthotropic elastic rotor equipped with a ball auto-balancing device is investigated. Equations of motion in fixed and rotating systems of coordinates, as well as equations describing steady motions of the regular precession type, are derived using a simple model of a Jeffcott rotor. Formulae for calculating the amplitude-frequency and phase-frequency characteristics of the precessional motion of the rotor are obtained. It is established that the conditions for a steady balanced mode of motion for an orthotropic rotor to exist have the same form as for an isotropic rotor, but the stability region of such a mode for an orthotropic rotor is narrower than the stability region for an isotropic rotor. The unsteady modes of motion of the rotor in the case of rotation with constant angular velocity and in the case of passage through critical velocities with constant angular acceleration is investigated numerically. It is established that the mode of slow passage through the critical region for an orthotropic rotor is far more dangerous than the similar mode for an isotropic rotor.
