A novel approach is adopted to assess the static behavior of vaulted structures, such as cantilevered masonry stairs, assuming a linear elastic no-tension material model. Masonry is substituted by an equivalent orthotropic material whose elastic properties vary locally and with a negligible stiffness where tensile strain occurs. In order to recover a tension-free state of stress, an energy-based minimization procedure is carried out to establish the distribution and the orientation of the equivalent material for a given compatible load. The capability of the approach in defining purely compressive stress solutions in masonry walls under dead load and both in-plane and out-of-plane live loads has already been assessed. A meaningful application to a cantilevered masonry stair is here presented; the results are in good agreement with those available in the technical literature on historical masonry constructions.

The buffering properties of honeycomb material are analyzed in the presented work. Theoretical analysis based on energy method is first presented, the buffering process of honeycomb material can be divided into three phases, honeycomb material can be equivalent to orthotropic material and the equivalent material properties are given. Being good at soil mechanics, Abaqus can simulate lunar soil very well. Using a constitutive model for honeycomb material, which is a built-in user material model, the presented work developed a honeycomb material simulation model and verified with a practical example. Now we can analysis the entire landing buffer process in Abaqus, which is a complement to existing analysis processes.

Excessive coil deformation can complicate normal handling of a wound or rolled coil, cause difficulties in mass production, and introduce undesirable variations in the subsequent manufacturing processes. Four critical factors for coil deformation have been identified, i.e., radial stiffness of the coil material, winding tension, stiffness of the core which supports the coil, and lubrication. In this paper, we advance the understanding of coil deformation by developing an equivalent material model based on the internal stress distribution obtained from a two-dimensional winding-analysis model. The proposed material model is then implemented in a multi-layer finite element model to study the coil deformation under gravitational loading. This proposed framework can quantify the contribution of each factor in the coil deformation and thereby provide more scientific base in the engineering design process. The approach is used to analyze the deformation of laminate sheet coils.
