A finite element approach to the chaotic motion of geometrically exact rods undergoing in-plane deformations

The paper is concerned with a hybrid finite element formulation for the geometrically exact dynamics of rods with applications to chaotic motion. The rod theory is developed for in-plane motions using the direct approach where the rod is treated as a one-dimensional Cosserat line. Shear deformation is included in the formulation. Within the elements, a linear distribution of the kinematical fields is combined with a constant distribution of the normal and shear forces. For time integration, the mid-point rule is employed. Various numerical examples of chaotic motion of straight and initially curved rods are presented proving the powerfulness and applicability of the finite element formulation.

Nonlinear active control of damaged piezoelectric smart laminated plates and damage detection

Considering mass and stiffness of piezoelectric layers and damage effects of composite layers, nonlinear dynamic equations of damaged piezoelectric smart laminated plates are derived. The derivation is based on the Hamilton＇s principle, the higher- order shear deformation plate theory, von Karman type geometrically nonlinear straindisplacement relations, and the strain energy equivalence theory. A negative velocity feedback control algorithm coupling the direct and converse piezoelectric effects is used to realize the active control and damage detection with a closed control loop. Simply supported rectangular laminated plates with immovable edges are used in numerical computation. Influence of the piezoelectric layers＇ location on the vibration control is in- vestigated. In addition, effects of the degree and location of damage on the sensor output voltage are discussed. A method for damage detection is introduced.

A MESHLESS LOCAL PETROV-GALERKIN METHOD FOR GEOMETRICALLY NONLINEAR PROBLEMS

Nonlinear formulations of the meshless local Petrov-Galerkin （MLPG） method are presented for geometrically nonlinear problems. The method requires no mesh in computation and therefore avoids mesh distortion difficulties in the large deformation analysis. The essential boundary conditions in the present formulation axe imposed by a penalty method. An incremental and iterative solution procedure is used to solve geometrically nonlinear problems. Several examples are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the method in geometrically nonlinear problems analysis. Numerical results show that the MLPG method is an effective one and that the values of the unknown variable are quite accurate.

Patterned bilayer plate microstructures subjected to thermal loading: Deformation and stresses

We studied the deformation of a series of gold/polysilicon patterned plate microstructures fabricated by surface micromachining. The patterned plate microstructures were subjected to a uniform temperature change from 100 °C to room temperature that was intended to induce linear and geometrically nonlinear deformation. We used interferometry to measure full-field deformed shapes of the microstructures. From these measurements we determined the spatially-averaged curvature of the deformed microstructures within individual lines and across the entire plate. The deformation response of the patterned plates can be broadly characterized in terms of the average curvature as a function of temperature change and exhibits linear and geometrically nonlinear behavior. We modeled the deformation response of the patterned plates using geometrically nonlinear plate theory with the finite element method. Good agreement was obtained between predictions and measurements for both local curvature variations across lines and for the evolution of curvature of the entire plate with temperature change. Using a generalized plane strain approach with the finite element method we also modeled the spatial dependence of the stress distribution in the lines and substrate. For thick plates, our results agree with those of previous studies, showing a decrease in the von Mises stress in the metal lines with decreasing linewidth. For thinner substrates, though, we find the behavior with linewidth is opposite and there is a critical substrate thickness (about 10 μm for the system in our study) where the behavior with linewidth changes. These results have important implications in the design of patterned structures for micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) applications where films are of comparable thickness to the underlying substrate.     

Nonlinear deformation and buckling of elastic inhomogeneous shells under thermomechanical loads

The paper outlines the fundamentals of the method of solving static problems of geometrically nonlinear deformation, buckling, and postbuckling behavior of thin thermoelastic inhomogeneous shells with complex-shaped midsurface, geometrical features throughout the thickness, or multilayer structure under complex thermomechanical loading. The method is based on the geometrically nonlinear equations of three-dimensional thermoelasticity and the moment finite-element scheme. The method is justified numerically. Results of practical importance are obtained in analyzing poorely studied classes of inhomogeneous shells. These results provide an insight into the nonlinear deformation and buckling of shells under various combinations of thermomechanical loads

Geometrically nonlinear large deformation analysis of triangular CNT-reinforced composite plates

A first known investigation on the geometrically nonlinear large deformation behavior of triangular carbon nanotube (CNT) reinforced functionally graded composite plates under transversely distributed loads is investigated. The analysis is carried out using the element-free IMLS-Ritz method. In this study, the first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT) and von Kármán assumption are employed to account for transverse shear strains, rotary inertia and moderate rotations. A convergence study is conducted by varying the supporting size and number of nodes. The effects of transverse shear deformation, CNT distribution and CNT volume fraction on the nonlinear bending characteristics under different boundary conditions are examined.

GEOMETRICALLY NONLINEAR FINITE ELEMENT MODEL OF SPATIAL THIN-WALLED BEAMS WITH GENERAL OPEN CROSS SECTION

Based on the theory of Timoshenko and thin-walled beams, a new finite element model of spatial thin-walled beams with general open cross sections is presented in the paper, in which several factors are included such as lateral shear deformation, warp generated by nonuni- form torsion and second-order shear stress, coupling of flexure and torsion, and large displacement with small strain. With an additional internal node in the element, the element stiffness matrix is deduced by incremental virtual work in updated Lagrangian （UL） formulation. Numerical examples demonstrate that the presented model well describes the geometrically nonlinear property of spatial thin-walled beams.     

Elastoplastic stress-strain state of flexible layered shells made of isotropic and transversely isotropic materials with different moduli and subjected to axisymmetric loading

The paper proposes a numerical technique for analysis of the elastoplastic stress-strain state of flexible layered shells of revolution under axisymmetric loading. It is assumed that the shells are made of isotropic and transversely isotropic materials with different moduli in tension and compression. The technique is based on a geometrically nonlinear theory of shells that takes into account the squared angles of rotation and the Kirchhoff-Love hypotheses for a layer stack. The deformation of isotropic materials is described using the theory of deformation along paths of small curvature. The deformation of transversely isotropic materials is described using the theory of elasticity with different moduli in tension and compression. The problem is solved by the method of successive approximations. A numerical example is given __________ Translated from Prikladnaya Mekhanika, Vol. 43, No. 11, pp. 31–42, November 2007.
