Stability analysis of composite plates with through-the-width delamination / Hamid Reza Ovesy in Journal of engineering mechanics, Vol. 137 N° 2 (Fevrier 2011) 

Public ISBD [article]  in Journal of engineering mechanics > Vol. 137 N° 2 (Fevrier 2011) . - pp.87-100 Titre : Stability analysis of composite plates with through-the-width delamination Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Hamid Reza Ovesy, Auteur ; Mahsa Kharazi, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : pp.87-100 Note générale : Mécanique appliquée Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Structures  Composites  Stability  Delamination  Contact. Résumé : In this paper, the compressive bucking and postbuckling behavior of composite laminates with through-the-width delamination are investigated. The analytical method is based on the first-order shear deformation theory, and its formulation is developed on the basis of the Rayleigh-Ritz approximation technique by the implementation of the polynomial series, which has been used for the first time in the case of the mixed mode of buckling. Both local buckling of the delaminated sublaminate and global buckling of the whole plate are investigated. Also, the contact among sublaminates is taken into account. The three-dimensional finite-element analysis is performed by using ANSYS5.4 general-purpose commercial software just to compare the finite-element method results with those obtained by the analytical model. It is noted that the significance and contribution of the current paper lies in the fact that for a rather complicated problem, very good results are obtained by using a fairly small number of degrees of freedom through the application of complete polynomial series.

Generation of three-dimensional fully nonlinear water waves by a submerged moving object / Chih-Hua Chang in Journal of engineering mechanics, Vol. 137 N° 2 (Fevrier 2011) 

Public ISBD [article]  in Journal of engineering mechanics > Vol. 137 N° 2 (Fevrier 2011) . - pp.101-112 Titre : Generation of three-dimensional fully nonlinear water waves by a submerged moving object Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Chih-Hua Chang, Auteur ; Keh - Han Wang, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : pp.101-112 Note générale : Mécanique appliquée Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Three-dimensional  waves  Fully  nonlinear  wave  Moving  body  Wave  generation  Soliton. Résumé : This paper describes a numerical investigation on the generation of three-dimensional (3D) fully nonlinear water waves by a submerged object moving at speeds varied from subcritical to supercritical conditions in an unbounded fluid domain. Considering a semispheroid as the moving object, simulations of the time evolutions of 3D free-surface elevation and flow field are performed. The present 3D model results are found to agree reasonably well with other published vertical two-dimensional (2D) and quasi-3D numerical solutions using Boussinesq-type models. Different from the 2D cases with near critical moving speeds, the 3D long-term wave pattern suggests that in addition to the circularly expanded upstream advancing solitonlike waves, a sequence of divergent and transverse waves are also developed behind the moving object. The velocity distributions and associated fluid-particle trajectories at the free-surface and middle layers are presented to show the 3D feature of the motion. The results under various vertical positions (referred as gap) of a moving object are also compared. It is found the gap has shown a substantial influence on the generated waves, especially in the wake region, when an object moves at a near critical or subcritical speed. However, the results under the case with a high supercritical moving speed indicate the gap has a negligible effect on the generated upstream and downstream waves.

Detecting multiple open cracks in elastic beams by static tests / Salvatore Caddemi in Journal of engineering mechanics, Vol. 137 N° 2 (Fevrier 2011)

Each crack is simulated by an equivalent linear spring connecting the two adjacent segments of beam. Sufficient conditions on the static measurements which allow for the unique identification of the damage are presented and discussed for nonuniform beams under some ideal boundary conditions. The inverse analysis is based on an explicit expression of the crack-induced variation in the deflection of the beam under a given load distribution and it provides exact closed-form expressions of position and severity of the cracks in terms of the measured data. The theoretical results are confirmed by a comparison with static tests carried out on a steel beam with localized damages.

Free out-of-plane vibrations of masonry walls strengthened with composite materials / Ehab Hamed in Journal of engineering mechanics, Vol. 137 N° 2 (Fevrier 2011) 

Public ISBD [article]  in Journal of engineering mechanics > Vol. 137 N° 2 (Fevrier 2011) . - pp.125-137 Titre : Free out-of-plane vibrations of masonry walls strengthened with composite materials Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Ehab Hamed, Auteur ; Rabinovitch, Oded, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : pp.125-137 Note générale : Mécanique appliquée Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Composite  materials  Free  vibration  Masonry  walls  Natural  frequencies  Strengthening  Nonlinear  analysis Résumé : The natural frequencies and the out-of-plane vibration modes of one-way masonry walls strengthened with composite materials are studied. Due to the inherent nonlinear behavior of the masonry wall, the dynamic characteristics depend on the level of out-of-plane load (mechanical load or forced out-of-plane deflections) and the resulting cracking, nonlinear behavior of the mortar material, and debonding of the composite system. In order to account for the nonlinearity and the accumulation of damage, a general nonlinear dynamic model of the strengthened wall is developed. The model is mathematically decomposed into a nonlinear static analysis phase, in which the static response and the corresponding residual mechanical properties are determined, and a free vibration analysis phase, in which the dynamic characteristics are determined. The governing nonlinear differential equations of the first phase, the linear differential eigenvalue problem corresponding to the second phase, and the solution strategies are derived. Two numerical examples that examine the capabilities of the model and study the dynamic properties of the strengthened wall are presented. The model is supported and verified through comparison with a step-by-step time integration analysis, and comparison with experimental results of a full-scale strengthened wall under impulse loading. The results show that the strengthening system significantly affects the natural frequencies of the wall, modifies its modes of vibration, and restrains the deterioration of the dynamic properties with the increase of load. The quantification of these effects contributes to the understanding of the performance of damaged strengthened walls under dynamic and seismic loads.

Support vector machines approach to HMA stiffness prediction / Kasthurirangan Gopalakrishnan in Journal of engineering mechanics, Vol. 137 N° 2 (Fevrier 2011)

Résumé : The application of artificial intelligence (AI) techniques to engineering has increased tremendously over the last decade. Support vector machine (SVM) is one efficient AI technique based on statistical learning theory. This paper explores the SVM approach to model the mechanical behavior of hot-mix asphalt (HMA) owing to high degree of complexity and uncertainty inherent in HMA modeling. The dynamic modulus (|E∗|), among HMA mechanical property parameters, not only is important for HMA pavement design but also in determining HMA pavement performance associated with pavement response. Previously employed approaches for development of the predictive |E∗| models concentrated on multivariate regression analysis of database. In this paper, SVM-based |E∗| prediction models were developed using the latest comprehensive |E∗| database containing 7,400 data points from 346 HMA mixtures. The developed SVM models were compared with the existing multivariate regression-based |E∗| model as well as the artificial neural networks (ANN) based |E∗| models developed recently by the writers. The prediction performance of SVM model is better than multivariate regression-based model and comparable to the ANN. Fewer constraints in SVM compared to ANN can make it a promising alternative considering the availability of limited and nonrepresentative data frequently encountered in construction materials characterization.

Efficient frequency response of locally uncertain linear structural systems / Steven F. Wojtkiewicz in Journal of engineering mechanics, Vol. 137 N° 2 (Fevrier 2011)

Odes, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : pp.147-154 Note générale : Mécanique appliquée Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Uncertainty  quantification  Frequency  response  Vibration. Résumé : The frequency response analysis of large, linear structural models subjected to deterministic, dynamic loads is oftentimes a computationally intensive task. The situation is only exacerbated when stiffness and damping uncertainties are present in the system’s description. However, this parametric uncertainty is often contained within a small number of localized features. These features involve only a small portion of the total degrees-of-freedom of the structural model. In this paper, this locality of uncertainty is exploited, and an exact method is presented for the frequency analysis of locally uncertain systems subjected to deterministic inputs based on the well-known Sherman-Morrison-Woodbury formula. The proposed method yields exact responses for the perturbed systems and is not affected by magnitude nor the type (e.g., normal, lognormal, etc.) of the uncertainties with the sole restriction that the system remains stable with probability one. A numerical example is presented to illustrate the significant gains in computational efficiency that can be attained using the proposed method.
