The results of the preceding experimental investigation have been applied to the design of bunkers. Examples are given which show how the required wall thickness can be determined by horizontal pressures or by the axial stress in the wall, depending on the flow properties.

When considering the creep of cylinders subjected to internal pressure, the theory of Johnson et al. takes into account progressive changes of radial, circumferential and axial stress at any point in the wall thickness. This approach differs from that put forward by Bailey, who assumed that these stresses remained constant with time. The present paper summarizes an examination of both theories, with particular reference to outside and bore diameters, and presents simple equations which enable circumferential strain to be calculated without using the complex graphical integration procedure suggested by Johnson. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that these equations are mathematically identical with those derived by Bailey.

Geometrical Dimensions

In thermal friction drilling (TFD) operations, the geometrical dimensions of bushing shape, height and wall thickness are the most vital consequences, since these increase the connecting length and strength. In this paper, AA7075-T651 aluminum alloys with 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 mm thicknesses were drilled with the TFD process in order to investigate density, volume ratio, and height and wall thickness of the bushings. The experiments were conducted at constant spindle speed and feed rate conditions by using High Speed Steel (HSS) conical tools of 5, 10, 15, and 20 mm in diameter. It was experimentally found that the bushing height and the wall thickness had a tendency to increase linearly with the increase in both material thickness and tool diameter. The effect of tool diameter was found to have more influence on the measurable values than the thickness of the drilled material. The density of the bushing changed trivially. Approximately 70–75 percent of the evacuated material formed the bushing shape in TFD operations.

The effects of hypertension on the stress and strain distributions through the wall thickness were studied in the rat thoracic aorta. Goldblatt hypertension was induced by constricting the left renal artery for 8 weeks. Static pressure-diameter-axial force relations were determined on excised tubular segments. The segments were then sliced into thin ring specimens. Circumferential strain distributions were determined from the cross-sectional shape of the ring specimens observed before and after releasing residual stresses by radial cutting. Stress distributions were calculated using a logarithmic type of strain energy density function. The wall thickness at the systolic blood pressure, Psys, significantly correlated with Psys. The mean stress and strain developed by Psys in the circumferential direction were not significantly different between the hypertensive and control aortas, while those in the axial direction were significantly smaller in the hypertensive aorta than in the control. The opening angles of the stress-free ring specimens correlated well with Psys. The stress concentration factor in the circumferential direction was almost constant and independent of Psys, although the stress distributions were not uniform through the wall thickness. Histological observation showed that the wall thickening caused by hypertension is mainly due to the hypertrophy of the lamellar units of the media, especially in the subintimal layer where the stress increase developed by hypertension is larger than in the other layers. These results indicate that: (a) the aortic wall adapts itself to the mechanical field by changing not only the wall dimensions but also the residual stresses, (b) this adaptation is primarily related to the circumferential stress but not to the axial stress, and (c) the aortic smooth muscle cells seem to change their morphology in response to the mechanical stress.

Abstract Anisotropic textiles are commonly used in wearable applications to achieve varied bi-axial stress-strain behavior around the body. Auxetic textiles, specifically those that exhibit a negative Poisson’s ratio (v), likewise exhibit intriguing behavior such as volume increase in response to impact or variable air permeability. Active textiles are traditional textile structures that integrate smart materials, such as shape memory alloys, shape memory polymers, or carbon nanotubes, to enable spatial actuation behavior, such as contraction for on-body compression or corrugation for haptic feedback. This research is a first experimental investigation into active auxetic and shearing textile structures. These textile structures leverage the bending- and torsional-deformations of the fibers/filaments within traditional textile structures as well as the shape memory effect of shape memory alloys to achieve novel, spatial performance. Five textile structures were fabricated from shape memory alloy wire deformed into needle lace and weft knit textile structures. All active structures exhibited anisotropic behavior and four of the five structures exhibited auxetic behavior upon free recovery, contracting in both x- and y-axes upon actuation (v = −0.3 to −1.5). One structure exhibited novel shearing behavior, with a mean free angle recovery of 7°. Temperature-controlled biaxial tensile testing was conducted to experimentally investigate actuation behavior and anisotropy of the designed structures. The presented design and performance of these active auxetic, anisotropic, and shearing textiles inspire new capabilities for applications, such as smart wearables, soft robotics, reconfigurable aerospace structures, and medical devices.

Stress Cycling

Coke drums are vertical pressure vessels used in the delayed coking process in petroleum refineries and oil sands plants. Significant temperature variation during the delayed coking process causes damage in coke drums in the form of bulging and cracking. In order to better understand the damage mechanisms, an experimental investigation of coke drum material behavior under various thermal-mechanical loading conditions was performed. A thermal-mechanical material testing system is successfully designed and implemented. Six types of various thermal-mechanical cyclic tests were performed: 1. cyclic thermal loading under constant uniaxial stress; 2. in-phase thermal and mechanical stress cycling; 3. out-of-phase thermal and mechanical stress cycling; 4. fully-reversed uniaxial cyclic loading with in-phase thermal cycling; 5. in-phase thermal-axial stress cycling with constant circumferential stress; 6. in-phase thermal-axial stress cycling with mean stress. Some of theses tests are similar to the actual loading scenario experienced by the coke drums. The experimental findings lead to better understanding of the damage mechanisms occurring in coke drums such as bulging.
