Abstract This study investigates the static instability of a cracked plate in subsonic airflow. The plate model is an inverted cantilever plate, where its leading edge is free and the trailing edge the clamped. A mathematical model of the crack is developed using the Dirac function, while Theodorsen aerodynamic mode is applied for the fluid force. To account for angle discontinuity caused by cracks, Fourier expansion is employed to transform the form corresponding to the angle into a continuous model. The critical divergent dynamic pressure and mode of an inverted cantilever plate with a crack are More >

Abstract Void nucleation is of great significance in understanding ductile fracture of many important engineering materials. Recent experiments have shown that voids are nucleated via vacancy condensation and dislocation boundaries are the main nucleation sites. However, it is still unclear what role is played exactly by dislocation boundaries in promoting void nucleation and what kind of defect configuration is involved. Here we propose a new mechanism for dislocation boundary-induced void nucleation and develop accordingly a vacancy condensation model based on the classical nucleation theory. The model suggests that vacancy condensation to form void is impossible in… More >

Abstract In recent years, shale gas development in Fengnan 4 well area of Xinjiang Oilfield is dominated by platform wells. In contrast to conventional fracturing development, the zipper fracturing is primarily used in this block. In this paper, the finite element model of platform well fracturing is established by establishing the mathematical model of multi-cluster fractures interacting with each other, considering the condition of multi-well and multi-fracture. The sequential fracturing of platform wells and the zipper fracturing (well alternating fracturing, fracturing stage alternating fracturing) are simulated in this paper, and the variation law of induced stress… More >

Abstract In this paper, we extend the Reissner-Mindlin shell theory based on peridynamics method proposed in [1] to the stiffened plate and explore its application to engineering problems, several examples are given to verify its effectiveness in the dynamic analysis. The coupling method is used in this paper to model the stiffened plate. The plate and the stiffener are treated as two independent shell to calculate the velocity and acceleration respectively, then the interaction between two parts of the stiffened plate is added at the coupling particle to satisfy the continuity condition. The non-local peridynamics theory More >

Abstract In order to study the dynamic mechanical properties at high temperature and high strain rate [1] of Q245R steel after corrosion, the electrochemical accelerated corrosion test by constant current method and the high strain rate tensile test at high temperature [2] by High Temperature Synchronous Hopkinson Tensile test device were carried out. The test results show that Q245R steel has obvious strain rate strengthening effect and temperature softening effect, and under certain conditions, temperature becomes the main factor affecting the material properties. In order to consider the heat treatment and corrosion effects, the traditional Johnson-Cook More >

Abstract The ablation of ultra-high-temperature ceramics (UTHCs) is a complex physicochemical process including mechanical behavior, temperature effect, and chemical reactions. In order to realize the structural optimization and functional design of ultra-high temperature ceramics, a coupled thermo-chemomechanical bond-based peridynamics (PD) model is proposed based on the ZrB₂ ceramics oxidation kinetics model and coupled thermomechanical bond-based peridynamics. Compared with the traditional coupled thermo-mechanical model, the proposed model considers the influence of chemical reaction process on the ablation resistance of ceramic materials. In order to verify the reliability of the proposed model, the thermomechanical coupling model, damage model and… More >

Abstract In recent years, the vehicle scanning method for bridge inspection has drawn much attention by researchers because of its simple operation and high efficiency [1]. Besides the natural frequency, modal modes and other information of bridges, damage can also be detected in this way [2]. For example, we proposed the passive tap-scan damage detection method [3], which scans the bridge with the tapping force generated by a toothed wheel, mimicking the hunting behavior of woodpeckers. In this talk, we will discuss two critical aspects related to the mechanism of this method. One is the quantitative… More >

Abstract The storage of solar energy in the subsurface in terms of heat is considered as a promising way for energy storage and conversion in future, which has a great potential to solve the temporal and spatial mismatch between energy demand and supply. Thermal energy storage in deep saline aquifers is capable to convert intermittent solar energy into high temperature stable geothermal energy. In this study, we propose a new solar energy storage and conversion system in which solar energy is firstly converted into heat using parabolic trough and then thermal energy storage in deep saline… More >

Abstract Acoustic wave propagation has been the subject of many studies in engineering and physics. Researchers have shown an increased interest in recent years in the acoustic scattering of periodic systems, such as phononic crystals and metamaterials [1]. These artificial periodic systems possess some particular acoustic characteristics including noise control, waveguides and negative refraction, which manifest excellent potential applicability in acoustic engineering. Based on the isogeometric acoustic boundary element method (BEM) [2], an efficient shape optimization approach is proposed in this research for threedimensional doubly-periodic multi-layered systems. The interfaces between different acoustic mediums are infinite doubly… More >

Abstract The number of malfunctioning satellites is dramatically increasing with the development of space technology in recent decades. These malfunctioning satellites are normally in rotating or tumbling states due to residual angular momentum, gravity gradient, et al, making direct capture impossible. Therefore, stabilizing these objects within acceptable angular velocities is an indispensable stage for in-orbit capture. The contact method using a flexible device (e.g., brush or rod) to detumble these satellites is considered to be safe and efficient enough. However, it is extremely time-consuming to solve the dynamic model of the detumbling system, which is a… More >
