Displacement Information

The complexity of structural materials is increasing the importance of the technology for high accuracy measurement. How to obtain the displacement information of structural feature points accurately and efficiently is the key issue of deformation analysis. In this article, displacement analysis of a composite arched structure is investigated based on the terrestrial laser scanning technique. A new method based on the measured point cloud is proposed to analyze the displacement of surficial points, resulting in not only the displacement size but also the displacement direction. The innovation lies in extracting the displacement information with a network and remapped point cloud, which is called the network method. The displacement map obtained demonstrates that the transverse displacement in the experiment plays an important role in the safety of the structure, which could not be observed and obtained by the surface approximation method. Therefore, the panorama- and pointwise displacement analysis technologies contribute to ensure the safety of increasingly complex constructions.

Cutting Speeds

Lsaers are emerging as a valuable tool for shaping and cutting hard and brittle ceramics. Unfortunately, the large, concentrated heat flux rates that allow the laser to efficiently cut and shape the ceramic also result in large localized thermal stresses in a small heat-affected zone. These notable thermal stresses can lead to micro-cracks, a decrease in strength and fatigue life, and possibly catastrophic failure. In order to assess where, when, and what stresses occur during laser scribing, an elastic stress model has been incorporated into a three-dimensional scribing and cutting code. First, the code predicts the temporal temperature fields and the receding surface of the ceramic. Then, using the scribed geometry and temperature field, the elastic stress fields are calculated as they develop and decay during the laser scribing process. The analysis allows the prediction of stresses during continuous wave and pulsed laser operation, a variety of cutting speeds and directions, and various shapes and types of ceramic material. The results of the analysis show substantial tensile stresses develop over a thick layer below and parallel to the surface, which may be the cause of experimentally observed subsurface cracks.

Corner Vertex

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to present the characteristics of elastic-plastic deformation and stress fields at the intersection of a crack front and the free surface of a three-dimensional body, referred to as corner fields. Design/methodology/approach The structures of elastic-plastic corner deformation field were assessed experimentally by looking at the corner border displacement and strain fields on the surface of a compact tension (CT) specimen using digital image correlation method. For assessment and verification purposes, the results were compared with the fields predicted through finite element analysis. The latter method was used further to assess the corner stress field. Findings The characteristics of displacement, strain and stress fields in the vicinity of a corner vertex in a finite geometry CT specimen in a strain hardening condition are independent of load and geometry. One of the distinctive features that becomes evident in this study is that the stress state at the corner vertex at θ=0° is a simple uniaxial tension. Originality/value This paper provides some insights on the structure of elastic-plastic corner fields that could optimistically be served as a fundamental framework towards the development of analytical solutions for elastic-plastic corner fields.

Close Form

A simple, albeit approximate, close-form solution is developed to study the elastic stress and energy distribution in and around spheroidal inclusions and voids at finite concentration. This theory combines Eshelby’s solution of an ellipsoidal inclusion and Mori- Tanaka’s concept of average stress in the matrix. The inclusions are taken to be homogeneously dispersed and undirectionally aligned. The analytical results are obtained for the general three-dimensional loading, and further simplified for uniaxial tension applied parallel to the axis of inclusions. The ensuing stress and energy fields under tensile loading are illustrated for both hard inclusions and voids, ranging from prolate to oblate shapes, at several concentrations.

As the key structure of a practical construction technique, the low-cement extruded curb has been widely used in recent concrete-faced rockfill dams (CFRDs). The extruded curb exhibits significant interactions with the neighboring gravels and with the face slab. These interactions were investigated using element tests, and a new model was proposed. This model is composed of three parts: (i) the equivalent slab that is described using an ideal elastoplasticity model, (ii) the equivalent interface between the curb and the gravel cushion layer that is described using an elastoplasticity damage model, and (iii) the interface between the curb and the face slab that is described using a modified ideal elastoplasticity model. This model was verified via a two-dimensional numerical simulation of an ideal CFRD to capture the main behavior of the extruded curb with interactions between the extruded curb and the neighboring soil – face slab, employing a significantly smaller number of elements and a shorter calculation than direct simulation. The model was used to perform a three-dimensional stress–displacement analysis of the Bakun CFRD (205 m in height), and the results showed that the extruded curb causes a change in the stress of the face slab.
