Numerical solution to the buckling problem for a sandwich plate under uniaxial compression

A thin rectangular sandwich plate with isotropic linear elastic layers is considered. The plate is in a plane-strain state under uniaxial compression. An exact statement of the buckling problem is given. Its approximate solution is found by the finite-difference method. The concept of base scheme is used to formulate discrete problems in explicit and compact form. As an example, the critical parameters of the plate are calculated using a computation optimization procedure. Its efficiency is demonstrated __________ Translated from Prikladnaya Mekhanika, Vol. 42, No. 9, pp. 98–105, September 2006.

James-Anderson方法是一种借助材料疲劳裂纹扩展速率性能来确定三维裂纹应力强度因子的重要实验方法。本文对James-Anderson方法中的疲劳裂纹扩展三维效应进行了分析，并对其进行修正。修正后的James-Anderson方法考虑了疲劳裂纹扩展中由于应力状态而引起的三维效应。研究结果表明：和James-Anderson方法相比，修正后的James-Anderson方法得到的应力强度因子和三维数值方法所得的应力强度因子更吻合。     

BEHAVIOR OF OBSTRUCTED SQUARE BUOYANT VERTICAL JETS IN STATIC AMBIENT （Ⅰ）—— VERIFICATION OF MATHEMATICAL MODEL AND NUMERICAL METHOD

Some experiments were made for the buoyant jet from a square orifice with a square disc placed on it in static ambient and concentration along the axis in self-similar area behind disc was measured. And at the same time a three-dimensional mathematical model was established to simulate the whole flowing under different conditions. All the results predicted by the numerical calculation were substantiated by the experiments. The results were compared with experiential formula for obstructed round buoyant vertical jets in static ambient and it was found that the two concentration distributions had good accordance. Star shape of temperature isolines on cross-sections in the near areas from the disc was found and it was a very special figure for obstructed square buoyant vertical jets with a square disc. The shape will transform to concentric circles gradually alike to the round buoyant vertical jet in self-similar area with increasing of the distance from the disc.

Pendulation Reduction in Boom Cranes Using Cable Length Manipulation

A technique is proposed to reduce payload pendulations using the reelingand unreeling of the hoisting cable. The payload is modeled as a pointmass, the cable is modeled as a rigid link, and the assembly, aspherical pendulum, is attached to the boom tip. An excitation isapplied to the assembly at the boom tip. The motion of the payload isdescribed using two-dimensional and three-dimensional models. Ourresults demonstrate that cable-length manipulation can be used to reducepayload pendulations due to near-resonance excitations. Significantreductions can be obtained via an appropriate choice of thereeling/unreeling speed. We also demonstrate the limitations inherent intwo-dimensional modelings of a crane.

Turbulent Channel Flow with an Artificial Two-Dimensional Wall Layer

Turbulent flow of an incompressible fluid in a plane channel with parallel walls is considered. The three-dimensional time-dependent Navier-Stokes equations are solved numerically using the spectral finite-difference method. An artificial force which completely suppresses lateral oscillations of the velocity is introduced in the near-wall zone (10 % of the channel half-width in the neighborhood of each wall). Thus, the three-dimensional flow zone, in which turbulent oscillations can develop, is separated from the wall by a fluid layer. It is found that the elimination of three-dimensionality in the neighborhood of the walls leads to a significant reduction in the drag. However, complete laminarization does not occur. The flow in the stream core remains turbulent and can be interpreted as a turbulent flow in a channel with walls located on the boundary of the two-dimensional layer and traveling at the local mean-flow velocity. The oscillations developing inside the two-dimensional layer, which have significant amplitude, distort the flow only in the adjacent zone. Beyond this zone the distributions of the mean characteristics and the structure of instantaneous fields completely correspond to ordinary turbulent flow in a channel with rigid walls. The results obtained confirm the hypothesis of the unimportance of the no-slip boundary conditions for the fluctuating velocity component in the mechanism of onset and self-maintenance of turbulence in wall flows.

Numerical Investigation of Large Elastoplastic Strains of Three-Dimensional Bodies

A method of stress—strain analysis of elastoplastic bodies with large displacements, rotations, and finite strains is developed. The incremental loading technique is used within the framework of the arbitrary Lagrangian—Eulerian formulation. Constitutive equations are derived which relate the Jaumann derivative of the Cauchy—Euler stress tensor and the strain rate. The spatial discretization is based on the FEM and multilinear three-dimensional isoparametric approximation. An algorithm of stress—strain analysis of elastic, hyperelastic, and perfectly plastic bodies is given. Numerical examples demonstrate the capabilities of the method and its software implementation __________ Translated from Prikladnaya Mekhanika, Vol. 41, No. 6, pp. 36–43, June 2005.
