Abstract This work analyzes the problems of material elastic constants identification and residual stresses determination in an orthotropic materials using hole drilling method. These problems are very important to understand mechanical performance of materials. A lot of optical method such as Moiré, laser speckle interferometry, digital image correlation or photoelasticity is developed to estimate displacement (or strain) fields or applied loads (or stresses) from images. These methods require a very complicated techniques, skill, and efforts to analysis images. But deep learning method based on a convolution neural network shows better performance in image analysis problems such… More >

Abstract By the use of the Murnaghan potential the influence of third order elastic constants on axisymmetric longitudinal wave propagation velocity in a pre-stressed two-layered circular hollow cylinder is investigated. This investigation is carried out within the scope of the piecewise homogeneous body model by utilizing the first version of the small initial deformation theory of the Three-dimensional Linearized Theory of Elastic Waves in Initially Stressed Bodies. Numerical results are obtained and analyzed for the cases where the material of the outer hollow cylinder material is aluminum, but the material of the inner cylinder is steel More >

Abstract An inverse technique, based on the boundary element method (BEM) and elastostatic experiments for identification of elastic constants of orthotropic and general anisotropic 2D bodies is presented. Displacement measurements at several points on the boundary of the body, obtained by a few known load cases are used in the inverse analysis to find the unknown elastic constants of the body. Using data from more than one elastostatic experiment results in a more accurate and stable solution for the identification problem. In the inverse analysis, sensitivities of displacements of only boundary points with respect to the More >

Abstract A semicontiuum Green's-function-based model is proposed for analysis of averaged mechanical characteristics of Si_xGe_{1 - x}. The atomistic forces in the model are distributed at discrete lattice sites, but the Green's function is approximated by the continuum GF in the far field and by the averaged lattice GF in the near field. Averaging is achieved by replacing Si and Ge atoms by identical hypothetical atoms that are x fraction Si and (1-x) fraction Ge. The parameters of the model are derived using the atomistic model from the interatomic potential between the hypothetical atoms. The interatomic potential… More >

Abstract Based on molecular mechanics and the concept of flexible connection used in the flexibly connected frames, a new structural mechanics model, a 2-D frame composed of anisotropic beams and flexible connections, is proposed for the simulation of the static and dynamic flexural behavior of monolayer graphene. The equivalent beam representing the C-C bond in the new molecular structural mechanics (MSM) model has two salient features compared with other MSM models presented for the analysis of carbon nanotubes: one is that the flexible connections at the beam ends are used to account for the bond-angle variations… More >

Abstract We analyze the lattice dynamics of Fe in different crystal phases (bcc, fcc and hcp) by using density-functional theory. The study on equations of states indicates that bcc Fe is more stable than fcc and hcp Fe at low pressures. However, dynamical instabilities in lattice vibrations of bcc Fe predict a phase transformation from bcc to hcp at higher pressures. We reported a complete set of second-order and third-order elastic constants of Fe in these three phases. We observed a linear variation in the values of second order elastic constant as a function of increased More >

Abstract In this paper the meshless local Petrov-Galerkin (MLPG) method is used in the micromechanical analysis of a unidirectional fiber composite. The methods have been extended to include shear loadings, thus permitting a more complete micromechanical analysis of the composite subjected to combined loading states. The MLPG formulation is presented for the analysis of the representative volume element (RVE) of the periodic composite containing material discontinuities. Periodic boundary conditions are imposed between opposite faces of the RVE. The treatment of periodic boundary conditions in the MLPG method is handled by using the multipoint constraint technique.

Abstract An efficient hybrid numerical method is presented for investigating transient response of cross-ply laminated axisymmetric cylinders subjected to an impact load. In this hybrid numerical method, the laminated cylinder is divided into layered cylindrical elements in the thickness direction. The Hamilton principle is used to develop governing equations of the structure. The displacement response is determined by employing the Fourier transformations and the modal analysis. Numerical examples for analyzing transient waves have been provided in axisymmetric laminated cylindrical structures, both for thin cylindrical shells and thick cylinders.
