The granular-media-based push-bending process has been developed to manufacture thin-wall elbow tube with t/D≤0.01 (the ratio of wall thickness to outer diameter) and R/D≤1.5 (the ratio of bending radius to outer diameter). In the process, a tubular blank is filled with granular media and then pushed into a die to form an elbow shape. To investigate the process, a FEM-DEM coupling model has been developed, in which FEM is used to simulate bending deformation of tubular blank, and DEM is used to calculate contact forces between spherical particles in granular media. In this work, an improved numerical formulation is proposed in order to reach mechanical equilibrium quickly and accelerate the convergence of DEM simulation, when the new contacts are no longer created and the old contacts are no longer deleted in granular media. Using the proposed numerical formulation, the improved FEM-DEM coupling simulation for granular-media-based thin-wall elbow tube push-bending process is less time-consuming than before under the same simulation condition.

In this paper, an analytical solution is developed to investigate soil consolidation around a pile under earthquake loading. The solution is validated using finite element method. The influence of various parameters on excess pore water pressure is analyzed. The results show that excess pore water pressure increases with depth and is positively correlated with n and Neq/N1, while negatively correlated with η, χ, kv, and td. The values of η, χ, kv, Neq/N1, and td affect excess pore water pressure during and after the earthquake, while the value of n only affects excess pore water pressure after the earthquake. The growth rate of excess pore water pressure during the earthquake is positively correlated with n, η, kv, and Neq/N1, and negatively correlated with χ and td. The dissipation rate of excess pore water pressure during the earthquake is positively correlated with η, χ, kv, Neq/N1, and td, and negatively correlated with n. Additionally, a formula for calculating the reconsolidation settlement of pile-soil foundation after an earthquake is proposed, and the effects of pile and soil parameters on pile-soil foundation reconsolidation settlement are analyzed. The results indicate that reconsolidation settlement can be divided into two stages: rapid settlement stage and slow settlement stage. The total settlement of the foundation is positively correlated with n, η, and Neq/N1, while negatively correlated with χ, kv, and td.

In practice, the consolidation of soil around the pile has a great influence on the time-dependent bearing capacity of pile. However, most of the consolidation theory of soil around the pile neglects the disturbance effect of pile-driving on surrounding soil and regards the soil as homogeneous, which overestimates the consolidation efficiency of the soil, and obtains a higher pile bearing capacity. In view of this, a consolidation model of soil around a pipe pile considering soil disturbance effect is presented in this paper. Fourier transform and separation of variables are used to obtain the analytical solution, and then the solution is verified by degradation analysis and Finite Difference Method (FDM). Firstly, the radial and vertical distribution of excess pore pressure generated after pile-driving is analyzed. In the radial direction, the excess pore pressure decreases rapidly from the radius of pipe pile to the radius of the disturbed zone, then slowly decays to 0 from the radius of disturbed zone to the influencing radius of pipe pile. In the vertical direction, the excess pore pressure along the vertical direction grows linearly. Subsequently, the variation of the average excess pore pressure at the pile-soil interface with the permeability coefficient and radius of disturbance zone are analyzed. The permeability coefficient of disturbance zone has a remarkable negative effect on the excess pore pressure during the whole consolidation period. Increasing the radius of the disturbance zone will hinder the dissipation of the excess pore pressure in the intermediate and later stages. Finally, the validity of the proposed analytical solution is illustrated by comparing with the laboratory results.

Characterization of a physical system is an important issue to approach some applied physics and engineering problems. The complex natural resonance frequencies of the system which are included in its impulsive response are characteristic of such system and are part of its description. Few works written in English language show a comparison among discrete methods that extract natural complex frequencies from a system impulsive response. Much less common is to find works written in Spanish language about this important research topic. Given this situation, important discrete numeric methods to estimate the complex natural resonance frequencies of a system through its impulsive response are described, tested and compared in different simulation scenarios in this document. According to the obtained results, the matrix pencil method with a SVD filter is the less sensitive method to the noise, while the Prony method and its different versions are the fastest ones. Scenarios that could be more suitable for each method are discussed.

Non-uniform cooling of steel cross-sections during the manufacturing process generates a state of residual stresses in the cross-section. Design codes describe the distribution of these stresses in different ways. This work aims to numerically investigate the influence of these models on the behavior of bare steel and steel-concrete composite sections by the curves: flexural stiffness-bending moment, moment-curvature and yield curves (initial and full yield). These procedures are important for the study of the simplified curves used in some methodologies of the refined plastic hinge method (RPHM) analysis. The study will use the strain compatibility method (SCM), where, if the axial strain of the cross-section point is known, the section stiffness is obtained using the tangential Young's modulus derived from the materials constitutive relationship. A fiber discretization algorithm is applied and the residual stresses are explicitly inserted into the fibers automatically. The methodology was calibrated using the moment-curvature relationship and the flexural stiffness-bending moment curve. These results were numerically stable and good convergence with literature data was obtained. In general, the residual stress model of the American standard (AISC, 2016) defines a larger elastic region within the interaction diagrams then European model (CEN, 2005). The results obtained showed that the initial yield curves for steel I-sections under minor axis bending require revision for application to RPHM, mainly due to the loss of symmetry in relation to the M axis in the normal force-bending moment (NM) interaction diagram.

The majority of the flowshop scheduling literature focuses on regular performance measures like makespan, flowtime etc. In this paper a flowshop scheduling problem is addressed where the objective is to minimize completion time variance (CTV). CTV is a non-regular performance measure that is closely related to just-in-time philosophy. A Microsoft Excel spreadsheet-based genetic algorithm (GA) is proposed to solve the problem. The proposed GA methodology is domain-independent and general purpose. The flowshop model is developed in the spreadsheet environment using the built-in formulae and function. Addition of jobs and machines can be catered for without the change in the basic GA routine and minimal change to the spreadsheet model. The proposed methodology offers an easy-to-handle framework whereby the practitioners can implement a heuristic-based optimization tool with the need for advanced programming tools. The performance of the proposed methodology is compared to previous studies for benchmark problems taken from the literature. Simulation experiments demonstrate that the proposed methodology solves the benchmark problems efficiently and effectively with a reasonable accuracy. The solutions are comparable to previous studies both in terms of computational time and solution quality.

One of the greatest challenges in the area of applied mathematics continues to be the design of numerical methods capable of approximating the solution of partial differential equations quickly and accurately. One of the most important equations, due to the hydraulic and transport applications it has, and the large number of difficulties that it usually presents when solving it numerically is the Diffusion Equation. In the present work, a Method of Lines applied to the numerical solution of the said equation in irregular regions is presented using a scheme of Generalized Finite Differences. The second-order finite difference method uses a central node and 8 neighbor points in order to address the spatial approximation. A series of tests and numerical results are presented, which show the accuracy of the proposed method.

Permeable pavements are a common solution for wearing course layers in roads and urban areas. They are composed by highly porous materials with permeability several orders of magnitude above of the natural terrain. This work presents, on one hand, the experimental characterisation of the hydraulic behaviour of a permeable asphalt concrete wearing course layer and, on the other hand, the development and validation of a two-dimensional coupled hydraulic-hydrological distributed numerical model to reproduce the effect of the infiltration in the rainfall-runoff transformation and in the overland flow propagation processes. Experiments show linear and potential trends for permeability-hydraulic head relations when considering constant and variable hydraulic heads, respectively, reaching permeability up to 0.04 m/s for 1 m of hydraulic head. Experiments are reproduced numerically by incorporating new infiltration formulas, which consider the infiltration rate as a function of the hydraulic head, and a specific numerical scheme for properly dealing the mass conservation when negative values of the water depth may occur numerically due to high infiltration rates. This two-dimensional coupled hydraulic-hydrological distributed numerical model is a validated tool for simulating the effect of permeable pavements not only in the rainfall-runoff process, but also for the overland flow propagation.

Taking the double-layer water injection well and one graded water distributor could regulate two layers as the design and research goal, the sliding double-layer water injection distributor was designed by using the forward and reverse rotation of the driving motor to control the opening and closing of the two nozzles. The flow field of the two flow channels under different opening was analyzed by FLUENT software. The research shows that when the opening of the nozzle was less than 10mm, the maximum flow rate decreases rapidly, and when the opening exceeds 10mm, it decreases slowly. The mathematical models of flow pressure, flow velocity, and nozzle opening were obtained by data analysis and fitting. Finally, the kinematics simulation was carried out by AAMS, and the maximum friction force borne by each sealing in the movement process was obtained. The maximum torque borne in the movement process was 120.5N·m, which was less than the rated torque. The supporting motor could meet the design requirements.

The supporting motor could meet the design requirements.","PeriodicalId":49607,"journal":{"name":"Revista Internacional de Metodos Numericos para Calculo y Diseno en Ingenieria","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68781968","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
