Normal And Shear Stresses

The multiaxial yield behaviors of 1100-0 aluminum, 70:30 brass, and an overaged 2024 aluminum alloy (2024-T7) have been investigated for a variety of prestress histories involving combinations of normal and shear stresses. Von Mises effective prestrains were in the range of 1.2–32%. Prestress paths were chosen in order to investigate the roles of prestress and prestrain direction on the nature of small-strain offset (ε = 5 × 10−6) yield loci. Particular attention was paid to the directionality, i.e., translation and distortion, of the yield locus. A key result, which was observed in all three materials, was that the final direction of the prestrain path strongly influences the distortions of the yield loci. Differences in the yield locus behavior of the three materials were also observed: brass and the 2024-T7 alloy showed more severe distortions of the yield locus and a longer memory of their entire prestrain history than the 1100-0 aluminum. In addition, more “kinematic” translation of the subsequent yield loci was observed in brass and 2024-T7 than in 1100-0 aluminum. The 2024-T7 differed from the other materials, showing a yield locus which decreased in size subsequent to plastic straining. Finally, the implications of these observations for the constitutive modeling of multiaxial material behavior are discussed.

Normal And Shear Stresses

Three computer programs, written in FORTRAN WATFIV, are developed to analyze straight, monolithically cast, symmetric concrete box beams with one, two, or three cells and side cantilevers over a simple span or over two spans with symmetric mid-span loadings. The analysis, based on Maisel's formulation, is performed in three stages. First, the structure is idealized as a beam and the normal and shear stresses are calculated using the simple bending theory and St-Venant's theory of torsion. The secondary stresses arising from torsional and distortional warping and shear lag are calculated in the second and third stages, respectively. The execution times on an AMDAHL 580 system are 0.02, 0.93, and 0.25 s for the three programs, respectively. The stresses arising in each stage of analysis are then superposed to determine the overall response of the box section to the applied loading. The results are compared with Maisel's hand calculations. Key words: bending, bimoment, box beam, computer analysis, FORTRAN, shear, shear lag, thin-walled section, torsion, torsional and distortional warping.

Normal And Shear Stresses

Mean velocity and turbulence intensity measurements have been made in a fully developed turbulent boundary layer over a d-type surface roughness. This roughness is characterised by regular two-dimensional elements of square cross section placed one element width apart, with the cavity flow between elements being essentially isolated from the outer flow. The measurements show that this boundary layer closely satisfies the requirement of exact self-preservation. Distribution across the layer of Reynolds normal and shear stresses are closely similar to those found over a smooth surface except for the region immediately above the grooves. This similarity extends to distributions of third and fourth-order moments of longitudinal and normal velocity fluctuations and also to the distribution of turbulent energy dissipation. The present results are compared with those obtained for a k-type or sand grained roughness.

Normal And Shear Stresses

Current experiences show that a non-proportional loading of ductile materials such as wrought steels, wrought aluminium or magnesium alloys, not welded or welded, causes a significant fatigue life reduction under an out-of-phase shear strain or shear stress superimposed on a normal strain or normal stress compared with proportional in-phase loading. However, when ductility, here characterised by tensile elongation, is reduced by a heat treatment or by another manufacturing technology such as casting or sintering, the afore-mentioned life reduction is compensated or even inversed, i. e. longer fatigue life results compared with proportional loading. Some actual results, determined with additive manufactured titanium, suggest that microstructural features such as manufacturing-dependent internal defects like microporosities should be considered in addition to the ductility level. This complex life behaviour under non-proportional loading cannot always be estimated. Therefore, in experimental proofs of multiaxial loaded parts, especially safety-critical components or structures, with real or service-like signals, emphasis must be placed on retaining non-proportionalities between loads and stresses/strains, respectively.

Normal And Shear Stresses

A general solution of the elastic equations is obtained for problems of stress distributions in plates or cylinders when the bounding faces of the plates Z = ± h , or the flat ends of the cylinders, are free from applied normal and shear stresses. The solution is expressed either in the form of Fourier series in the co-ordinate Z , or in power series in Z , the coefficients of the series being certain functions of the x and y co-ordinates which are sufficient to satisfy boundary conditions over two bounding cylindrical surfaces normal to the planes Z = ± h . The form of the theory is greatly simplified by making use of complex combinations of stress components, and by using the complex variable z = x + iy . A first approximation to the part of the theory which deals with the bending of the plate yields a theory similar in character to that given recently by Reissner.
