Flexural wave bandgap properties of phononic crystal beams with interval parameters

Uncertainties are unavoidable in practical engineering, and phononic crystals are no exception. In this paper, the uncertainties are treated as the interval parameters,and an interval phononic crystal beam model is established. A perturbation-based interval finite element method(P-IFEM) and an affine-based interval finite element method(A-IFEM) are proposed to study the dynamic response of this interval phononic crystal beam, based on which an interval vibration transmission analysis can be easi...     

Stress-free layers in photoinduced deformations of photoelastomer beams

Nematic liquid crystals combined with long molecular chains to form liquid crystal elastomers are capable of large extension. When such liquid crystal elastomers contain azo dyes to constitute photoelastomers, illumination can trigger large contraction. Beams made from such photoelastomers possess a non-uniform illumination and hence photostrain across their cross-section, resulting in bending and highly non-linear stress distribution. Due to the non-linear stress distribution, there can be more than one stress-free layers within the beam. In this paper, we present a dimensionless parametric study of nematic photoelastomer beams under the combined effects of light and mechanical loads. We show how the number of stress-free layers depends on three dimensionless parameters. The paths traced out by the system in the space of dimensionless parameters by varying the different real parameters are investigated, showing how the number of stress-free layers changes when e.g. the thickness or the mechanical load of the elastomer beam is varied. These results are important if the strain induced director rotation is not negligible.     

Enhancement of elementary beam theories in order to obtain exact solutions for elastic rectangular beams

Boley's method is utilized in order to show that the elementary Bernoulli–Euler beam theory can be enhanced such that exact solutions of the plane-stress theory of linear elasticity are obtained for force loaded rectangular beams. An equivalent enhancement is derived for the elementary Timoshenko theory of beams. The enhancement terms act analogous to thermal loadings; they follow from the force loading of the rectangular beam in an explicit form. The resulting boundary value problem of fourth order can be efficiently solved by means of symbolic computer codes. As an illustrative example, a redundant beam is studied, which is simply supported at one end, and which is clamped at the other end. Outcomes for three alternative clamped end boundary conditions are compared.     

基于XFEM的混凝土纯弯曲梁的裂缝扩展模拟研究

选取纯弯曲梁进行裂缝扩展研究,在理论上符合Ⅰ型断裂模式．因此,本文利用扩展有限元法(XFEM)模拟了混凝土纯弯曲梁裂缝发展的全过程,结合线性叠加渐进假定,得到了不同初始缝高比的P-δ曲线、P-CMOD曲线以及临界有效裂缝扩展长度(a_c-a₀)/h与裂缝发展路经．对比试验数据和模拟结果表明：随着初始缝高比的增大,起裂荷载P_ini、最大荷载P_max、离散弗雷歇距离δ_dF与δ_{d F}^′,以及临界有效裂缝长度(a_c-a₀)/h均逐渐减小;试验与模拟的裂纹发展路径存在一定偏差,可知试验数据与模拟结果存在规律性差异．     

建立基于力的变截面梁单元质量矩阵的新方法

基于位移的有限梁单元中三次Hermite插值函数不能有效地描述变截面梁单元内部位移变化,只能通过加密网格增加单元数解决,会造成计算量增大。基于力的有限梁单元由于使用的力插值函数不受截面形状变化的影响,在处理变截面梁时有很大优势,可以得到精确的位移插值函数,利用较少的单元可以达到很高的精度,解决了基于位移的有限梁单元在处理变截面梁时的不足。本文得到了考虑剪切变形的位移插值函数和考虑转动惯量的一致质量矩阵。利用算例验证了本文理论的正确性和高效性。     

SUPPRESSION OF BENDING WAVES IN A PERIODIC BEAM WITH TIMOSHENKO BEAM THEORY

Active control of bending waves in a periodic beam by the Timoshenko beam theory is concerned. A discussion about the possible wave solutions for periodic beams and their control by forces is presented. Wave propagation in a periodic beam is studied. The transfer matrix between two consecutive unit cells is obtained based on the continuity conditions. Wave amplitudes are derived by employing the Bloch-Floquet theorem and the transfer matrix. The influences of the propagating constant on the wave amplitudes are considered. It is shown that vibrations are still needed to be suppressed in the pass-band regions. Wave-suppression strategy described in this paper is employed to eliminate the propagating disturbance of an infinite periodic beam. A minimum wave-suppression strategy is compared with the classical wave-suppression strategy.     

均匀热荷载作用下层合简支梁的弹性力学解

基于二维热弹性力学理论,研究均匀热荷载作用下层合简支梁的弹性力学解.首先导出均匀温度场中满足控制微分方程和两端简支边界条件的单层梁的弹性力学解,然后利用层间界面位移和应力必须连续的条件,递推得到底层梁与顶层梁间的位移和应力关系.最后根据层合梁上下表面的边界条件确定待定系数,带回递推公式得到整个层合梁的应力和位移分布.本文方法的计算结果有很好的收敛性.与有限元软件的结果对照说明了本文方法的精确性.最后,研究了不同的变温对层合简支梁的位移和应力的影响,结果显示每个层间界面在x方向的应力是不连续.随着温度的升高,梁的最大位移相应地增大.温度越高,位移沿厚度变化的速率越大.     

集中载荷作用下FRP布加固带裂缝木梁的弯曲

将FRP布视为正交各向异性材料,考虑其拉伸与压缩时的双弹性模量性质,给出了四周粘贴FRP布加固带裂缝木梁四点弯曲的边值问题,得到了FRP布加固木梁挠度的解析解,并验证了其有效性和适用性.参数分析表明:相比于侧面粘贴CFRP布,在木梁受拉侧沿轴向粘贴CFRP布的刚度加固效果更加显著;CFRP布加固木梁的挠度随CFRP加固布厚度和弹性模量的增加而减小,但当侧贴CFRP布厚度增加到某一值时,继续增加厚度对木梁挠度的减少效果已不明显;当受拉侧CFRP布厚度较小时,木梁挠度随CFRP布厚度的增加非线性减小,而当受拉侧CFRP布厚度较大时,木梁挠度随CFRP布厚度几乎呈线性减小.同时,当侧贴CFRP布的剪切模量很大时,此时,CFRP布加固带裂缝木梁的挠度趋于CFRP布加固完整无裂缝木梁的挠度,此时,CFRP加固完全消除了裂缝因素.

FREE VIBRATION ANALYSIS OF LATTICE SANDWICH BEAMS UNDER SEVERAL TYPICAL BOUNDARY CONDITIONS

Free vibration problems of lattice sandwich beams under several typical boundary conditions are investigated in the present paper. The lattice sandwich beam is transformed to an equivalent homogeneous three-layered sandwich beam. Unlike the traditional analytical model in which the rotation angles of the face sheets and the core are assumed the same, different rotation angles are considered in this paper to characterize the real response of sandwich beams. The analytical solutions of the natural frequencies for several typical boundary conditions are obtained. The effects of material properties and geometric parameters on the natural frequencies are also investigated.
