Performance and application of equivalent force control method for real-time substructure testing / Bin Wu in Journal of engineering mechanics, Vol. 138 N° 11 (Novembre 2012)

Note générale : Mécanique appliquée Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Real-time  substructure  test  Hybrid  simulation  Equivalent  force  control  Implicit  integration  Pseudodynamic  test Résumé : The equivalent force control (EFC) method has been developed for real-time substructure testing with implicit integration to replace the numerical iterative process with feedback control. This paper addresses two issues concerning the performance of this method. One is the determination of the force-displacement conversion factor (a key component of EFC) for nonlinear specimens. The analysis conducted here shows that the force-displacement conversion factor is largely governed by the properties of the numerical substructure and the numerical scheme when a small integration time interval is used. Otherwise, the factor has to be determined with the secant stiffness of the specimen and of the numerical substructure if a proportional-derivative controller is used for EFC. The other issue is the overshooting problem, which may arise for multidegree-of-freedom structures because of the relatively quick response feedback from the numerical substructure in the closed-loop EFC. This problem can be resolved by reducing either the EFC gains or the increment size of the equivalent force command. The analytical studies on these two issues are verified by numerical simulations and for real-time substructure tests conducted on structural models with buckling restrained braces. Furthermore, a real-time substructure test was conducted on an offshore platform with magnetorheological dampers in order to serve as an example of a practical application of the method ISSN : 0733-9399 En ligne : http://ascelibrary.org/doi/abs/10.1061/%28ASCE%29EM.1943-7889.0000445?journalCod [...] [article] Performance and application of equivalent force control method for real-time substructure testing [texte imprimé] / Bin Wu, Auteur ; Guoshan Xu, Auteur ; Yan Lin, Auteur . - 2013 . - pp.1303–1316.

Discrete rotation in RC beams / M. S. Mohamed Ali in Journal of engineering mechanics, Vol. 138 N° 11 (Novembre 2012)

Mohamed Ali, Auteur ; D. J. Oehlers, Auteur ; M. Haskett, Auteur Année de publication : 2013 Article en page(s) : pp.1317–1325. Note générale : Mécanique appliquée Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Reinforced  concrete  beams  Rotation  Partial  interaction  Shear  friction Résumé : The ability of a RC beam to rotate is extremely important at both the serviceability and ultimate limit states as it affects deflection, moment redistribution, and the absorption of energy. The rotation in a RC beam can be considered to have two components: the continuous rotation that occurs in the homogenous portions of the beam and that can be determined by straightforward integration of the curvature and the discrete rotation due to the rigid body displacement between crack faces. In this paper, generic closed-form solutions are derived for the discrete rotation across crack faces, which are limited by debonding or fracture of the reinforcement in tension, or softening of the concrete in compression. It is shown how closed-form solutions can be derived for the moment/discrete rotation for the simplest case of a RC beam with a single layer of reinforcement, which could be used as the starting position for much more complex scenarios. The technique developed is generic as it can cope with any type reinforcement and concrete.

Note générale : Mécanique appliquée Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Frames  Progressive  collapse  Robustness  Hierarchy Résumé : In this paper, the response of two-dimensional framed structures made of rectangular cells to the sudden removal of columns is studied. A simulation algorithm based on the discrete-element method is employed, where the structural elements are represented by elasto-plastic Euler-Bernoulli beams with elongation-rotation failure threshold. The effect of structural cell slenderness and of topological hierarchy on the dynamic residual strength after damage R1 is investigated. Topologically hierarchical frames have a primary structure made of a few massive elements, while homogeneous frames are made of many thin elements. It is also shown how R1 depends on the activated collapse mechanisms, which are determined by the mechanical hierarchy between beams and columns, i.e., by their relative strength and stiffness. Finally, principles of robustness-oriented capacity design that seem to be in contrast to the conventional antiseismic capacity design are addressed.

Note générale : Mécanique appliquée Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Bitumen  films  Cohesive  modeling  Fracture  energy  Finite-element  method  Viscous  materials Résumé : Finite-element analysis is used to model the failure of thin-film butt-joint specimens of pure bitumen in tension for a wide range of test conditions (temperature and strain rate). The approach uses a powerful numerical scheme based on two components: a nonlinear viscous, temperature- and rate-dependent constitutive material model that describes the mechanical deformation behavior of bitumen, implemented into a special-purpose finite-element user material subroutine, and a cohesive zone model for simulating the fracture process. The finite-element model is validated by comparing computed fracture characterization parameters with experimental results. The predicted force versus displacement characteristics and the normalized toughness, G/2h, are found to compare favorably with experimental results in the ductile and brittle regimes, with the failure mode being accurately simulated.

Note générale : Mécanique appliquée Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Boundary  layer  Cement-based  materials  Convection  Diffusivity  Evaporation  Mass  transfer Résumé : Early-age cracking affects the structural integrity of concrete structures and, if not inhibited, would lead to a reduction in service life. Plastic cracks are observed in the first few hours after placing the concrete, a time period well within the initial stages when the drying process is controlled by the rate of evaporation of concrete surfaces, which is roughly constant and similar to the rate of evaporation from water surfaces. In the absence of a theoretical method, this rate is commonly estimated using a nomograph based on Dalton’s law. In this paper, a fluid mechanics–based approach for water evaporation based on the boundary-layer theory, mass transfer, diffusion, and convection is described. A parametric study is conducted on the effect of boundary-layer temperature, wind speed, relative humidity, and evaporation characteristic length on the calculated evaporation rates. Predicted evaporation rates are verified by recent experiments. Results show that given appropriate environmental parameters, evaporation rates can be predicted with a good degree of accuracy.

Note générale : Mécanique appliquée Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Beam  theory  Shear  deformable  beams  Sixth-order  differential  equations  Displacement  boundary  condition  Boundary  layer  effct Résumé : Although a number of the higher-order/refined beam theories had been proposed for the analysis of shear deformable beams, these beam theories cannot properly take account of the displacement boundary conditions of shear deformable beams, and they are not capable of characterizing the boundary layer effects resulting from the displacement boundary conditions. A new beam theory with the sixth-order differential equilibrium equations is employed in this paper to analytically solve the boundary layer solutions of three typical beams with clamped ends. The influences of the boundary layer solutions given by the new sixth-order beam theory on the deflections, shear forces and stresses are studied, and the resulting solutions are evaluated by the finite-element results. The accuracy assessment of the deflections given by various higher-order/refined beam theories is also carried out by comparing these analytical solutions of deflections with the numerical results. The numerical results show that the new sixth-order beam theory can properly deal with the displacement boundary conditions of shear deformable beams and yield accurate solutions of both displacements and stresses. Furthermore, the new sixth-order beam theory is also capable of properly characterizing the boundary layer effect induced by the displacement boundary conditions. The current study also shows that the boundary layer solutions at the zone of clamped ends do not considerably affect the deflections; however, they contribute significantly to the localized distributions of the shear force and the normal stresses at the zone of the clamped ends. In particular, the resulting normal stresses at the beam surfaces of a clamped end are much larger than those predicted by Timoshenko beam theory.

The current study also shows that the boundary layer solutions at the zone of clamped ends do not considerably affect the deflections; however, they contribute significantly to the localized distributions of the shear force and the normal stresses at the zone of the clamped ends. In particular, the resulting normal stresses at the beam surfaces of a clamped end are much larger than those predicted by Timoshenko beam theory.
