A solution method using realistic (broad-band) viscoelastic response characteristics covering approximately ten decades of logarithmic time is presented for wave propagation in two-dimensional geometries. A Dirichlet series representation of the viscoelastic mechanical properties and a numerical collocation inversion procedure overcome many of the computational difficulties associated with the Laplace-transform approach to dynamic linear viscoelasticity and also afford a complete time solution. Stress distributions are given for two complementary cases, (a) the viscoelastic half-space subjected on the upper surface to the steady motion of a step pressure load moving supersonically relative to any wave speed in the material, and (b) the semi-infinite thin plate similarly loaded on its edge.

The Laplace transform of the axial stress resultant in an impacting semi-infinite elastic cylindrical membrane is generated in the form of an exponential function involving the wave speed, and a series in powers of the reciprocal of the transform parameter. Continued fractions are used to obtain rational approximations for the transform represented by the series. The rational approximations, which are in the form of the ratio of two polynomials, are inverted by standard techniques. Results are presented for the axial stress resultant for small and large values of time and are compared with previously published results.

Carbon/Phenolic (C/P), a typical anisotropic material, is an important component of aerospace and often used to protect the thermodynamic effects of strong X-ray radiation. In this paper, we establish the anisotropic elastic-plastic constitutive model, which is embedded in the in-house code “RAMA” to simulate a two-dimensional thermal shock wave induced by X-ray. Then, we compare the numerical simulation results with the thermal shock wave stress generated by the same strong current electron beam via experiment to verify the correctness of the numerical simulation. Subsequently, we discuss and analyze the rules of thermal shock wave propagation in C/P material by further numerical simulation. The results reveal that the thermal shock wave represents different shapes and mechanisms by the radiation of 1 keV and 3 keV X-rays. The vaporization recoil phenomenon appears as a compression wave under 1 keV X-ray irradiation, and X-ray penetration is caused by thermal deformation under 3 keV X-ray irradiation. The thermal shock wave propagation exhibits two-dimensional characteristics, the energy deposition of 1 keV and 3 keV both decays exponentially, the energy deposition of 1 keV-peak soft X-ray is high, and the deposition depth is shallow, while the energy deposition of 3 keV-peak hard X-ray is low, and the deposition depth is deep. RAMA can successfully realize two-dimensional orthotropic elastoplastic constitutive relation, the corresponding program was designed and checked, and the calculation results for inspection are consistent with the theory. This study has great significance in the evaluation of anisotropic material protection under the radiation of intense X-rays.

Simple electronic circuitry and axially polarized ceramic transducers are employed to generate and detect elastic waves in a two‐dimensional analog model. The absence of reverberation and the basic simplicity. of construction underlie the advantages of this system. If the form of the fundamental wavelet in the model itself, as modified by the linear filtering effects of the remainder of the system, can be found, then calibration is achieved. This permits direct comparison of theoretical and experimental seismograms for a given model if its impulse response is known. A technique is developed for calibration and verified by comparing Lamb’s theoretical and experimental seismograms for elastic wave propagation over the edge of a half plate. This comparison also allows a critical examination of the basic assumptions inherent in a model seismic system.

AbstractThis paper presents a novel semi-implicit scheme for elastodynamics and wave propagation problems in nearly and truly incompressible material models. The proposed methodology is based on the efficient computation of the Schur complement for the mixed displacement-pressure formulation using a lumped mass matrix for the displacement field. By treating the deviatoric stress explicitly and the pressure field implicitly, the critical time step is made to be limited by shear wave speed rather than the bulk wave speed. The convergence of the proposed scheme is demonstrated by computing error norms for the recently proposed LBB-stable BT2/BT1 element. Using the numerical examples modelled with nearly and truly incompressible Neo-Hookean and Ogden material models, it is demonstrated that the proposed semi-implicit scheme yields significant computational benefits over the fully explicit and the fully implicit schemes for finite strain elastodynamics simulations involving incompressible materials. Finally, the applicability of the proposed scheme for wave propagation problems in nearly and truly incompressible material models is illustrated.

Abstract Stamping is one of the most used manufacturing processes, where real-time monitoring is quite difficult due to high speed of the mechanical press, which leads to deterioration of the accuracy of the products In the present work, a method is developed to model elastic waves propagation in solids to measure contact conditions between die and workpiece during stamping. A two-dimensional model is developed that reduces the wave propagation equations to two-dimensional equations. To simulate the wave propagation inside the die-workpiece model, the finite difference time domain (FDTD) method and modified Yee algorithm has been employed. The numerical stability of the wave propagation model is achieved through courant stability condition, i.e., Courant-Friedrichs-Lewy (CFL) number. Two cases, i.e., flat die-workpiece interface and inclined die-workpiece interface, are investigated in the present work. The elastic wave propagation is simulated with a two-dimension (2D) model of the die and workpiece using reflecting boundary conditions for different material properties. The experimental and simulation-based results of reflected and transmitted wave characteristics are compared for different materials in terms of reflected and transmitted wave height ratio and material properties such as acoustic impedance. It is found that the numerical simulation results are in good agreement with the experimental results.
