Abstract Composites which are considered to be a sort of high-performance materials have been used in the aerospace industry, as well as other industries. Due to the high quality standards and the applicable safety purposes, highly precise and non-destructive test methods are highly demanded for both manufacturing and maintenance. This talk describes the portable shearography device which is developed in Shanghai University. The laser projection and inspection sensor are integrated and mounted on the tripod to meet the requirement of field inspections. Two loading systems including thermal and vibrating are introduced to achieve repeatable test results. More >

Abstract In this study, the efficient discrete model including the resin infusion and the fiber compaction is developed to simulate the RFI (resin film infusion) process. The non-linear governing equations are derived by the Darcy's law, the Terzaghi's law and the continuity equations. The finite element method and the finite difference method are used to discretize the proposed equations, and the VOF method is used to track the filling front. Compared with the analytical results of Park, our numerical results agree well with them. Furthermore, we analyze the RFI process of BMI/G0814, and simulate the resin More >

Abstract Among many multiscale methods ,we choose the quasicontinuum method to understand the mechanical response at the nanocrystalline of grain boundaries(GBs) under tension. The energetic and mechanical strength of 6 i?"<110> symmetric tilt GBs are investigated in nanocrystalline Cu and Ni. We focus on discussing the interaction of the structural units of symmetric tilt GB for the initial deformation mode and the strength of model. At the basis of the previous, We study the nanocrystalline Cu/a-Al2O3 interface and analyze the relationship during the grains orientations, GB energy and interface. Special emphasis is placed on the crystal slip More >

Abstract Currently mines seismic emergence mechanism is unclear. To solve this problem, the article analyzes the occurring mechanism of mines seismic and studies the mines seismic classification. Meanwhile we establish three-Dimension excitation model of mines seismic, then derive the propagation model of mines seismic. Research shows that Coal-rock mass produced brittle fracture when outside force to exceed its ultimate strength in complex stress, after the release of energy generate mines seismic. The establishment of the model explains mines seismic occurrence mechanism, and provides the theoretical foundation for mines seismic magnitude calculation and accurate Orientation in the More >

Abstract Bending movements will be caused when elements passing by die entrance radius. The classical inverse analysis method (CIAM) uses the constitutive equation based on deformation theory of plasticity. Based on the assumption of the proportional loading, Hencky deformation theory is adopted. The secant modulus is obtained from uniaxial tensile curve and the plastic strain rate can be directly integrated to obtain a total plastic strain expression. The CIAM of sheet metal stamping has the shortcomings of no consideration of the effects of deformation history on stress prediction. Therefore, there is some discrepancy between the stress… More >

Abstract In this paper a state-of-the-art numerical method is discussed for the evaluation of the shakedown and ratchet limits for an elastic-perfectly plastic body subjected to cyclic thermal and mechanical load history. The limit load, i.e. the load carrying capacity, is also determined as a special case of shakedown analysis. These design limits in plasticity have been solved by characterising the steady cyclic state using a general cyclic minimum theorem. For a prescribed class of kinematically admissible inelastic strain rate histories, the minimum of the functional for these design limits are found by a programming method,… More >

Abstract Cytoplasmic motion assumed as a steady state laminar flow induced by cytoskeleton stretching in a cell is determined and its effect on the mechanical behavior of the cell under externally applied forces is demonstrated. Non-Newtonian fluid is assumed for the multiphase cytoplasmic fluid and the analytical velocity field around the macromolecular chain is obtained by solving the reduced nonlinear momentum equation using homotopy technique. The entropy generation by the fluid internal friction is calculated and incorporated into the entropic elasticity based 8-chain constitutive relations. Numerical examples showed strengthening behavior of cells in response to externally More >

Abstract Piezoelectric actuators based motion-producing devices are widely used in precision machining, deformable mirrors, micropumps and piezoelectric injection systems. However, because of their hysteresis nonlinear property, the piezoelectric actuators can not provide absolutely precise displacements. To solve this problem, researchers applied inverse control method to compensate the nonlinearity of piezoelectric actuators, and the inverse models are mainly based on traditional hysteresis models such as the Preiasch model or Prandtl-Ishlinskii model. In this paper, a new approach for inverse control of piezoelectric actuators is presented. The new method utilize a modified Prandtl-Ishlinskii model which is based on More >

Abstract The generalized method for determination of time constants of linear circuits is introduced. Nodal and mesh analysis, conventional methods whose applications are simpler than the state-space formulation, are used in obtaining the system equations. The approach is based on the use of the relationship between transfer functions and system equations of linear circuits, obtained by the conventional methods. The examples of active and passive circuits are given to illustrate the method. More >

Abstract Based on smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method with surface tension proposed by Morris, this paper is intended to modify equations for surface tension by modifying normal and curvature with corrective smoothing particle method (CSPM). Compared with the continuum surface force (CSF) model for surface tension employed in the traditional SPH method, the accuracy in the present paper is much higher in terms of handling the problems with large deformation and surface tension. The reason is that in the traditional SPH method the deficiency of particles is near the boundary and sharp-angled areas, and it causes… More >
