剪切型钢筋混凝土柱临界斜裂缝倾角的概率模型

对于剪切型钢筋混凝土(RC)柱,传统的确定性临界斜裂缝倾角模型难以有效考虑其材料参数、几何尺寸和边界约束条件等方面不确定性因素的影响,导致计算精度有限,且离散性较大。鉴于此,本文研究建立了剪切型RC柱临界斜裂缝倾角的概率模型。首先,基于变角桁架模型理论,建立了剪切型RC柱临界裂缝倾角的确定性模型;然后,考虑主观不确定性和客观不确定性因素的影响,结合贝叶斯理论和马尔可夫链蒙特卡洛(MCMC)法,建立了剪切型RC柱临界斜裂缝倾角的概率模型,并推导了均值和方差的解析表达式,从而能够合理描述临界斜裂缝倾角的概率分布特性;最后,利用试验数据对比验证了该模型的有效性,并校准了现有确定性模型的置信水平,进而确定了不同置信水平下剪切型RC柱临界斜裂缝倾角的概率特征值。     

Calculations of molecular multipole electric moments of a series of exo-insaturated four-membered heterocycles,Y = CCH2CH2X

The influence of ring puckering angle on the multipole moments of sixteen four-membered heterocycles (1-16) was theoretically estimated using MP2 and different DFTs in combination with the 6-31+G(d,p) basis set. To obtain an accurate evaluation, CCSD/cc-pVDZ level and, the MP2 and PBE1PBE methods in combination with the aug-cc-pVDZ and aug-cc-pVTZ basis sets were performed on the planar geometries of 1-16. In general, the DFT and MP2 approaches provided an identical dependence of the electrical properties with the puckering angle for 1-16. Quantitatively, the quality of the level of theory and basis sets affects significant the predictions of the multipole moments, in particular for the heterocycles containing C=O and C=S bonds. Convergence basis sets within the MP2 and PBE1PBE approximations are reached in the dipole moment calculations when the aug-cc-pVTZ basis set is used, while the quadrupole and octupole moment computations require a larger basis set than aug-cc-pVTZ. On the other hand, the multipole moments showed a strong dependence with the molecular geometry and the nature of the carbon-heteroatom bonds. Specifically, the C-X bond determines the behavior of the μ(?), θ(?) and ?(?) functions, while the C=Y bond plays an important role in the magnitude of the studied properties.     

Analysis of dynamic features in intersecting pedestrian flows

This paper focuses on the simulation analysis of stripe formation and dynamic features of intersecting pedestrian flows.The intersecting flows consist of two streams of pedestrians and each pedestrian stream has a desired walking direction.The model adopted in the simulations is the social force model, which can reproduce the self-organization phenomena successfully. Three scenarios of different cross angles are established. The simulations confirm the empirical observations that there is a stripe formation when two streams of pedestrians intersect and the direction of the stripes is perpendicular to the sum of the directional vectors of the two streams. It can be concluded from the numerical simulation results that smaller cross angle results in higher mean speed and lower level of speed fluctuation. Moreover, the detailed pictures of pedestrians' moving behavior at intersections are given as well.     

Direct structural observation of the alignment and elongation in lyotropic chromonic liquid crystals under shear flow

The structural characterization of the orientation and elongation under shear flow in Lyotropic Chromonic Liquid Crystals (LCLCs) molecules, Sunset Yellow FCF (SSY), was performed by in situ rheological small/wide angle X-ray scattering (Rheo-SAXS/WAXS). The X-ray measurement results clearly demonstrated that the stacked aggregates were oriented and elongated to the shear direction under shear flow. Further shear rate increase caused the enhancement in the orientation and elongation with the inter-aggregate distance constant, and then the structural change decreased implying the onset of the orientation saturation at high shear rates.

Fabrication of Superhydrophobic Surface with Different Metal Films on Aluminum Alloy

A simple technique was developed for the fabrication of a superhydrophobic surface on the aluminum alloy sheets. Different hierarchical structures(Ag, Co, Ni and Zn) were formed on the aluminum surface by the galvanic replacement reactions. After the chemical modification of them with fluorination, the wettability of the surfaces was changed from superhydrophilicity to superhydrophobicity. Scanning electron microscopy(SEM), energy dispersive spectrometry(EDS) and water contact angle measurement were performed to characterize the morphological characteristic, chemical composition and superhydrophobicity of the surfaces. The as-prepared superhydrophobic surfaces showed a water contact angle as high as ca.160° and sliding angle as low as ca.3°. We hope the method to produce superhydrophobic surface can be used in many fields.     

Finite element analysis of tire traveling performance using anisotropic frictional interaction model

The traveling performance of off-the-road vehicles, such as construction machinery and exploration rovers, significantly depends on the interaction between the ground and the traveling mechanism, since inelastic ground deformation and frictional sliding phenomena are induced by the vehicle’s movement. In general, a tread surface causes anisotropic frictional interaction behavior on a macroscopic scale. In this study, an acceptable frictional interaction model was implemented to finite element method to rationally examine the anisotropic frictional interaction behavior between the tire and the ground. Finite element analysis of the single tire traveling performance, including certain slippage and side slip (skid), was then carried out to examine the effect of the anisotropic frictional interaction on the numerical results for the drawbar-pull and side force.     

Concurrent multi-scale design optimization of composite frame structures using the Heaviside penalization of discrete material model

This paper deals with the concurrent multi-scale optimization design of frame structure composed of glass or carbon fiber reinforced polymer laminates. In the composite frame structure, the fiber winding angle at the micro-material scale and the geometrical parameter of components of the frame in the macro-structural scale are introduced as the inde-pendent variables on the two geometrical scales. Considering manufacturing requirements, discrete fiber winding angles are specified for the micro design variable. The improved Heaviside penalization discrete material optimization inter-polation scheme has been applied to achieve the discrete optimization design of the fiber winding angle. An optimiza-tion model based on the minimum structural compliance and the specified fiber material volume constraint has been estab-lished. The sensitivity information about the two geometrical scales design variables are also deduced considering the char-acteristics of discrete fiber winding angles. The optimization results of the fiber winding angle or the macro structural topology on the two single geometrical scales, together with the concurrent two-scale optimization, is separately studied and compared in the paper. Numerical examples in the paper show that the concurrent multi-scale optimization can fur-ther explore the coupling effect between the macro-structure and micro-material of the composite to achieve an ultra-light design of the composite frame structure. The novel two geometrical scales optimization model provides a new oppor-tunity for the design of composite structure in aerospace and other industries.
