The model was established based on the hypothesis that the strains of concrete and steel bars have parallel coupling. Then the contribution of steel to total stress tensor was derived by projecting the section area of steel bars to three orthogonal directions. This model was calibrated by fitting with the test data, and its validity was verified by simulating a bridge-ship collision application using LS-DYNA embedded with a user-defined material subroutine.

Approximate boundaries for finite - element models of static soil – foundation interaction problems / Carlos M. Mozos in Journal of engineering mechanics, Vol. 137 N° 10 (Octobre 2011)

We present a set of simple uniformly distributed boundary springs and a set of variable boundary springs that account for the lateral distribution of contact forces between the foundation and the soil. We evaluate the accuracy of the approach for shallow foundations resting on soil islands of different dimensions. It is shown that significantly smaller errors can be achieved with these boundary springs than those obtained when fixed-fixed or fixed-free external boundary conditions are used. We present an iterative approach to determine the boundary springs for cases in which extremely small soil islands are required. Although the approach suggested to determine the boundary springs is best suited to shallow foundations, good results are also obtained for pile foundations. The approach presented applies to a uniform elastic half-space, but extensions to layered media are possible.

Bending of delaminated composite conoidal shells under uniformly distributed load / Suman Kumari in Journal of engineering mechanics, Vol. 137 N° 10 (Octobre 2011)

Many parts of the globe, which were earlier assumed to be seismologically stable, are now being considered as earthquake prone. Hence the necessity to build light structures using composites has become very important. In this paper an eight-noded isoparametric shell element is applied for analyzing the bending behavior of delaminated composite conoidal shells under a uniformly distributed load with different practical boundary conditions. To ensure compatibility of deformation and equilibrium of forces and moments at the delamination crack front, a multipoint constraint algorithm is incorporated, which leads to an unsymmetrical stiffness matrix. This formulation is validated through the solution of benchmark problems. Lamination, curvature, and extent of delamination area are varied to compare the performances of delaminated conoidal shells against those with no damage. The results are carefully observed, and a set of conclusions is presented at the end of the paper.

Characterization of dynamic tensile testing using aluminum alloy 6061 - T6 at intermediate strain rates / Deju Zhu in Journal of engineering mechanics, Vol. 137 N° 10 (Octobre 2011)

We present the experimental procedures and results discussing the constitutive response of the alloy at strain rates up to approximately 200  s-1. The predominant frequencies of the high-speed testing machine were characterized by modal analysis, and we analyzed the effect from vibration of the system and loading rate on flow stress by using a single degree-of-freedom (SDOF) spring-mass-damper model. We tested two different specimen sizes at a wide range of actuator velocities to achieve the desired strain rates. Results show that the yield strength, ultimate strength, and failure strain were dependent on strain rate. We fitted the data to the Johnson-Cook (JC) constitutive model, and the resulting parameters are comparable to published results in the literature. The fracture surface of specimens tested at different strain rates obtained by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed that the ductile failure mode was dominant for the alloy, and strain rates within the range examined affected the fracture morphology.

Seismic reliability assessment of bridges with user - defined system failure events / Leonardo Duenas-Osorio in Journal of engineering mechanics, Vol. 137 N° 10 (Octobre 2011)

Padgett, Auteur Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : pp.680-690 Note générale : Mécanique appliquée Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Structural  reliability  System  reliability  Bridges  Seismic  effects  Closed-form  solutions  Retrofit  Monte  Carlo  simulation Résumé : Bridge-level failure event definitions per limit state have evolved from failure of one key bridge component as representative of the whole bridge system to failure of at least one of multiple components. However, an entire set of bridge failure event possibilities exists between these two extremes in the same limit state, such as failure of any two, any three, or any desired subset of bridge components. This paper proposes a closed-form combinatorial method to evaluate all possible ways in which bridge components can fail within and across limit states. It also highlights bridge component importance measures as key by-products of the closed-form solution. Calculations are illustrated with a particular yet illustrative system failure event, called the augmented event, which incorporates failures of at least one component in a given limit state and joint failures of multiple important components in a previous limit state. Bridges in as-built and retrofitted conditions are used to illustrate the augmentation calculation under seismic loads and the application of the proposed system reliability method. The results reveal an increase in median system fragility at the moderate limit states in the range of 4–20% relative to traditional approaches that neglect augmentation. This methodology to connect bridge components to bridge system reliability can readily support infrastructure stakeholder decision making and risk management through an efficient approach that can adapt to evolving system failure event definitions.

Influence of microcracking on shear localization / D. H. Warner in Journal of engineering mechanics, Vol. 137 N° 10 (Octobre 2011)

A two-dimensional (2D) finite-element framework with explicit crack representation using cohesive-element methodologies is employed. The influence of microcracking is examined by taking the fracture toughness of the cohesive elements as a free parameter. The simulations suggest that an optimum fracture toughness exists for promoting shear localization. This value corresponds to the limiting mode I fracture toughness, below which microscopic material defects lead to brittle compressive failure, as opposed to shear localization. While in the presence of confinement, this value is shown to be close to zero; in the absence of confinement, it is computed to be 28% of the shear band toughness for the specific case of ultrafine-grained tungsten. More generally, it is found that the ratio of mode I fracture toughness to shear band toughness provides a crude indicator for predicting whether material defects are likely to lead to brittle failure or enhanced shear localization.

Objectivity in turbulence under change of reference frame and superposed rigid body motion / Dafalias, Yannis F. in Journal of engineering mechanics, Vol. 137 N° 10 (Octobre 2011)

Similarities and differences arising from the two approaches and their effect on modeling in turbulence are discussed in detail. The use of the absolute spin for noninertial frames and of the net spin for superposed rigid-body motions in closure representations for the pressure-strain-rate correlations tensor are critically discussed. The enigmatic statement made by Speziale that the frame-indifference or objectivity of Reynolds stress does not establish the validity of material frame-indifference in turbulence and the subsequent case-study test of objectivity under superposed rigid-body mean motion within a rotating frame presented to prove it are investigated and fully explained. It is shown analytically that such apparently contrasting conclusions on the validity of objectivity result from the application of the objectivity test to the mean rather than the instantaneous motion, a case not encountered in classical continuum mechanics, which considers only one motion, the instantaneous.

The elastic restraint is mathematically represented by an elastic rotational spring. The circular plate is subjected to a uniform edge compressive radial load, developed because of a uniform temperature rise. The formulation is on the basis of on the radial tensile load developed in the plate because of the large deflections of the plate with edges immovable in the plane normal to the edge and the linear buckling load corresponding to the uniform edge radial compressive load. The developed radial tensile load is obtained by using Berger’s approximation.
