Abstract If not detected early, the cracks in structural components may ultimately result in the failure of the structure. This issue becomes even more critical when the component under investigation is a prosthesis placed in the human body. This study presents a crack location identification method based on the time domain in a cantilever beam of metallic biomaterials (CBMB). The absolute difference between the central difference approximation of the root mean square (RMS) of displacement of points on the cracked and uncracked beams was applied as a cracked location indicator. Captured time-domain data (displacement) at each node of the cracked and uncracked beams were processed into a central difference approximation of the RMS of displacement. Then, the crack could be detected by a sudden change of the cracked location indicator. The feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method were validated by numerical simulations. The finite-element simulation of a CBMB with a transverse notch was analyzed in the numerical study. The notch or crack was detected along the beam under a moving load at various locations. A set of simulation experiments and numerical calculations was performed to determine whether the proposed identification method would accurately detect the location of a crack in a cantilever beam under a moving load compared to the location found by an exact solution method. The results showed that the proposed method was not only as able as the analytical method but also robust against noise: it was able to detect a crack precisely under 5% noise.

Abstract With the development of simulation programs, it is necessary to simulate the problems that occur in the human body that are related to mechanical engineering. Whereas blood is a liquid with mechanical properties, the artery is a substance that also contains mechanical properties. Smoking increases blood viscosity, and this viscosity affects the velocity and blood pressure as well as the artery itself. In this research article, the effect of blood viscosity on the aorta will be studied because it is one of the main arteries of the heart and obtains blood flow in the artery. The blood’s kinetic equations were solved using the COMSOL program’s laminar processor, and fluid–structure interaction was utilized to connect the mechanics of motion with the stresses that affect the artery. In addition, the effect of viscosity on the deformation of the artery and its movement was studied, and the result showed that most of the blood does not reach the branches of the artery, where the speed of blood flow was 0.18 m/s at the value of the viscosity of 0.1 Pa s. The increase in viscoelasticity leads to an increase in pressure at the beginning of the carotid artery, which hinders the flow of blood. The velocity of blood flow decreases with the increase in viscosity, and this reduces pressure on the artery walls, as the stress on 0.1 Pa s was equal to 16,705 Pa s (m.124). An artery’s deformation is directly related to the stresses on it, and when the deformation goes down, the artery’s size goes down.

Abstract Cylindrical shell structures are ubiquitous and essential supporting structures in various engineering applications. The aim of this research work is to provide a comprehensive overview of the behavior of cylindrical shell structures under different loading conditions, including external pressure, axial compression, and bending moment. The study found that the behavior of cylindrical shells was affected by their geometry, including diameter, length, thickness, and imperfections. These factors should be carefully considered in the design and analysis of cylindrical shells. Additionally, stiffeners and sandwich structures can be applied to improve the structural performance of cylindrical shells under different loading conditions. The work also highlighted the latest research trends in the field, such as the use of advanced materials, and numerical simulations to improve the understanding and design of cylindrical shell structures. Overall, this study has provided a valuable resource for engineers and researchers working on cylindrical shell structures, helping them to design and analyze the cylindrical shell structures more efficiently and effectively.

Abstract The inelastic deformation of a 30 m high-speed craft (HSC) subjected to slamming pressure is the main topic of this research. In this work, the commercial software package ABAQUS FEA is used to predict the structural behavior, especially in the hull area under the chine. Dynamic explicit solver simulations are done to predict plastic deformation. Before the principal analysis of the actual size of the ship hull structure model, the numerical studies were validated against relevant experimental data from the previous open literature. A reassessment of the design guidelines was also done to forecast the slamming load on the HSC structure. Then, with the slamming load pressure increased to the design limit, a parametric analysis was also conducted with two different idealizations of the pressure type: rectangular and triangular. Finally, this study identifies the variables that must be considered when calculating the degree of structural deformation brought on by slamming loads.

Abstract An electric motor mounting bracket is used in electric vehicles, especially hybrid ones using a parallel hybrid configuration. This study aims to analyze the strength and performance of the initial design and topology optimized design. This study uses the finite-element method (FEM) in the bracket design modeling by applying topology optimization. The topology optimization results show a mass reduction of 50% from the initial design mass. In the case of static loading, the results of optimized design 2 have a stress of 142.19 MPa and a safety factor of 3.09. While optimized design 1 has a stress of 313.8 MPa and a safety factor of 1.4. In terms of dynamic loading, the initial design, optimized design 1, and optimized design 2 have the first natural frequency, which is higher than the operating frequency of the electric motor, respectively, 100.49, 69.043, and 74.864 Hz. Optimized design 1 has the lowest natural frequency and the highest amplitude compared to the initial design, and optimized design 2 has lower damping characteristics. The study results conclude that optimized design 2 is superior in static and dynamic loading.

Abstract In a context where daily and seasonal temperature changes or potential fire exposure can affect the mechanical response of structures strengthened with fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites during their life cycle, the present work studies the bond behavior of FRP laminates glued to concrete substrates under a thermal variation. The problem is tackled computationally by means of a contact algorithm capable of handling both the normal and tangential cohesive responses, accounting for the effect of thermal variations on the interfacial strength and softening parameters, which defines the failure surface and post cracking response of the selected specimen. A parametric investigation is performed systematically to check for the effect of thermo-mechanical adhesive and geometrical properties on the debonding load of the FRP-to-concrete structural system. The computational results are successfully validated against some theoretical predictions from literature, which could serve as potential benchmarks for developing further thermo-mechanical adhesive models, even in a coupled sense, for other reinforcement-to-substrate systems, useful for design purposes in many engineering applications.

Abstract This work made a comparison of the effects of selected element formulations (EFs) through nonlinear finite element analysis (NLFEA) and physical configurations in scenario design, particularly target locations. The combined results help in quantifying structural performance, focusing on crashworthiness criteria. The analysis involves nonlinear dynamic finite element methods, using an explicit approach applied to an idealized system. This system models ship-to-ship collisions, specifically the interaction between Ro and Ro and cargo reefer vessels, with one striking the other. Summarizing initial NLFEA results reveals that the chosen EF significantly influences the crashworthiness criteria. Notably, differences in formulations lead to different calculation times. The Belytschko–Tsay (BT) EF is the quickest, followed by the Belytschko–Leviathan (BL), with around a 36% difference. Conversely, formulations such as the Hughes–Liu involve much longer processing times, more than twice that of BT. To address the potential impact of shear locking and hourglassing on calculation accuracy during impact, the fully integrated (FI) version of the EF is used. It mitigates these undesired events. For formulations with the same approach, the FI BT formulation suppresses hourglassing effectively, unlike others that show orthogonal hourglassing increments. To ensure reliability, rules were set to assess hourglassing. The criterion is that the ratio of hourglass energy to internal energy should be ≤10%. All formulations meet this criterion and are suitable as geometric models in NLFEA. Regarding reliability and processing time, analyzing the computation time offers insights. Based on calculations, BL is the fastest, followed by Belytschko–Wong–Chiang, while the FI BT formulation takes more time for the same collision case.

Abstract A reliability-based approach is presented to investigate the effects of structural and load uncertainties on the reliability estimation of ship hull girders. Structural uncertainties included randomness in material properties, geometric properties, initial geometric imperfections, and corrosion behavior. Load uncertainties included statistical uncertainties, model uncertainties, environmental uncertainties, and uncertainties related to nonlinearity. The hull girder ultimate strength was calculated using Smith’s method, and the probabilistic density function was evaluated by employing Monte Carlo simulations. In the load estimation, the still water bending moment and wave-induced bending moment were calculated using a simplified formula of the International Association of Classification Societies-Common Structural Rules code and then modified with load parameters. The reliability index was estimated using a first-order reliability method considering the operating time, the duration of the ship in the alternate hold loading condition, and the severity of the corrosion rate. As a result, sagging conditions dominated the collapse mode. The reliability indexes were obtained for the observed cases, and the viability of the ship was assessed accordingly.

Abstract The article focuses on the influence of differential shrinkage linked by drying at the early-age displacements and strain distribution of a concrete ring specimen. Depending on the gradient of dimension changes through the thickness, tensile stress occurs near the exposed surface where drying is greater and thus results in strain gradients development. An experimental design was carried out on a concrete ring cast in laboratory conditions in order to monitor strains and displacements. Subsequently, a finite element method was used to simulate the ring’s behaviour in drying conditions. The gradient development linked by a non-uniform moisture distribution in the thickness is established by solving the non-linear partial differential drying equation with Mensi’s diffusion law. The stress and displacement analysis was modeled by three nodes curved shell FEM (CSFE-sh) based on strain approximation with the shell theory. Finally, the ring’s behaviour includes both differential shrinkage resulting in the mechanical and physical properties of gradients development in the thickness and the influence of prestressing, in which the tensile creep effects have a great influence. The comparison of experimental results with numerical simulation shows that drying and tensile creep phenomena have the most important influence on the early-age stress development in the walled ring.

Abstract Pitting corrosion is the most common, dangerous, and destructive corrosion type in marine and offshore structures. This type of corrosion can reduce the strength of the ship plate, so investigating it using several numerical grounding scenarios is needed to determine the significant degradation of the strength of the structural plate. In this study, a finite element study was used to evaluate the influence of pitting corrosion location on the strength of the bottom plate ship in grounding simulation. This study simulated 14 scenarios using different pitting positions on the bottom plate. Finite element using explicit dynamic simulation in LS Dyna software was employed to evaluate the strength of the bottom plate on the ship. The output parameters, such as reaction force and plate deformation, were assessed to compare the grounding simulation results. The simulation indicates that the location of pitting corrosion will affect stress concentration, crack initiation, reaction force, and penetrating position when the crack nucleates. The result shows the critical position of the pit, which is located near the stress concentration ring (nearly 100 mm from the center of the plates) in the plain plates.

Finite element using explicit dynamic simulation in LS Dyna software was employed to evaluate the strength of the bottom plate on the ship. The output parameters, such as reaction force and plate deformation, were assessed to compare the grounding simulation results. The simulation indicates that the location of pitting corrosion will affect stress concentration, crack initiation, reaction force, and penetrating position when the crack nucleates. The result shows the critical position of the pit, which is located near the stress concentration ring (nearly 100 mm from the center of the plates) in the plain plates.","PeriodicalId":44435,"journal":{"name":"Curved and Layered Structures","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47881569","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
