This paper presents a study of the spinning influence on film thickness and friction in EHL circular contacts under isothermal and fully flooded conditions. Pressure and film thickness profiles are computed with an original full-system finite element approach. Friction was thereafter investigated with the help of a classical Ree–Eyring model to calculate the longitudinal and transverse shear stresses. An analysis of both the velocity and shear stress distributions at every point of the contact surfaces has allowed explaining the fall of the longitudinal friction coefficient due to the occurrence of opposite shear stresses over the contact area. Moreover in the transverse direction spinning favors large shear stresses of opposite signs, decreasing the fluid viscosity by non-Newtonian effects. These effects have direct and coupled consequences on the friction reduction that is observed in the presence of spinning. They are expected to further decrease friction in real situations due to shear heating.

Plastic Stress

In this paper, a plate containing a central hole was used to simulate gas turbine blade with cooling hole. Numerical calculations based on crystal plasticity theory have been performed to study the elastic-plastic stress field near the hole under tension. Two crystallographic orientations [001] and [111] were considered. The distributions of resolved shear stresses and strains of the octahedral slip systems {110}<112> were calculated. The results show that the crystallographic orientation has remarkable influence on both von Mises stress and resolved shear stress distributions. The resolved shear stress distributions around the hole are different between the two orientations, which lead to the different activated slip systems. So the deformed shape of the hole in [001] orientation differs from that in [111] orientation.

Transverse Shear Stresses

This article presents a new higher-order beam model. The present beam model is governed by differential equations that are similar to those present in some existing higher-order beam models; however, the present beam model makes use of a novel method of calculating the transverse shear stiffness, which facilitates the calculation of a shear-warping stiffness without the need for an assumed warping displacement field, and without introducing any additional kinematic variables. The present beam model also facilitates the recovery of the distributions of longitudinal normal stresses and transverse shear stresses. The authors postulate that the bending and shear terms in first-order shear deformation theory represent the first two terms in an infinite series that would constitute an ideal one-dimensional beam model, and it is suggested that the present beam model constitutes the first four terms in this hypothetical infinite series. The present beam model is solved for several example beams, and the results are compared with those of existing classical and higher-order beam models, as well as computational results from finite element analyses. It is shown that the present beam model is able to accurately represent deformed shapes and stress distributions pertaining to beams that exhibit non-trivial shear compliance as well as non-trivial shear-warping stiffness. In the case of laminated composite beams comprising a large number of laminae, the present beam model offers a level of analytical fidelity that is comparable to that of existing zigzag beam models; however, unlike zigzag beam models, the present beam model is equally well suited for the analyses of beams comprising any number of laminae.

Abstract During vehicle braking and cornering, the tire's footprint region may see high normal contact pressures and in-plane shear stresses. The corresponding resultant forces and moments are transferred to the wheel. The optimal design of the tire bead area and the wheel requires a detailed knowledge of the contact pressure and shear stress distributions at the tire/rim interface. In this study, the forces and moments obtained from the simulation of a vehicle in stationary braking/cornering conditions are applied to a quasi-static braking/cornering tire finite element model. Detailed contact pressure and shear stress distributions at the tire/rim interface are computed for heavy braking and cornering maneuvers.

Transverse Shear Stresses

An engineering approach to estimation of the transverse shear stresses in layered composites is developed. The technique is based on the well-known D. I. Zhuravsky equation for shear stresses in an isotropic beam upon transverse bending. In general, application of this equation to a composite beam is incorrect due to the heterogeneity of the composite structure. According to the proposed method, at the first stage of its implementation, a transition to the equivalent model of a homogeneous beam is made, for which the Zhuravsky formula is valid. The transition is carried out by changing the shape of the cross section of the beam, provided that the bending stiffness and generalized elastic modulus remain the same. The calculated shear stresses in the equivalent beam are then converted to the stress values in the original composite beam from the equilibrium condition. The main equations and definitions of the method as well as the analytical equation for estimation of the transverse shear stress in a composite beam are presented. The method is verified by comparing the analytical solution and the results of the numerical solution of the problem by finite element method (FEM). It is shown that laminate stacking sequence has a significant impact both on the character and on the value of the transverse shear stress distribution. The limits of the applicability of the developed technique attributed to the conditions of the validity of the hypothesis of straight normal are considered. It is noted that under this hypothesis the shear stresses do not depend on the layer shear modulus, which explains the absence of this parameter in the obtained equation. The classical theory of laminate composites is based on the similar assumptions, which gives ground to use this equation for an approximate estimation of the transverse shear stresses in in a layered composite package.

An effective deicing system is needed to be designed to conveniently remove ice from the surfaces of structures. In this paper, an ultrasonic deicing system for different configurations was estimated and verified based on finite element simulations. The research focused on deicing efficiency factor (DEF) discussions, prediction, and validations. Firstly, seven different configurations of Lead zirconate titanate (PZT) disk actuators with the same volume but different radius and thickness were adopted to conduct harmonic analysis. The effects of PZT shape on shear stresses and optimal frequencies were obtained. Simultaneously, the average shear stresses at the ice/substrate interface and total energy density needed for deicing were calculated. Then, a coefficient named deicing efficiency factor (DEF) was proposed to estimate deicing efficiency. Based on these results, the optimized configuration and deicing frequency are given. Furthermore, four different icing cases for the optimize configuration were studied to further verify the rationality of DEF. The effects of shear stress distributions on deicing efficiency were also analyzed. At same time, a cohesive zone model (CZM) was introduced to describe interface behavior of the plate and ice layer. Standard-explicit co-simulation was utilized to model the wave propagation and ice layer delamination process. Finally, the deicing experiments were carried out to validate the feasibility and correctness of the deicing system.

Edge Delamination

By utilizing the general solutions derived for the plies with arbitrary fiber orientations under uniform axial strain (Huang and Chen, 1994), the explicit solutions of the edge-delamination stress singularities for the angle-ply and cross-ply laminates are obtained. The dominant edge-delamination stress singularities for the angle-ply laminates are found to be a real constant, −1/2, and a pair of complex conjugates, −1/2±i/2πln{(b+b2−a2)/a}. For the cross-ply laminates, the significant effect of transverse shear stresses of the laminate is considered and the dominant edge-delamination stress singularities are shown as −1/2 and −1/2±i/2πln{(c2+c22−4c1c3)/2c1}. a, b, cl, c2, and c3 are the corresponding combined complex constants. In addition, two elementary forms of edge-delamination stress singularity, say, r−1/2 and rδr(lnr)n(δr=n−3/2,n=1,2...) exist for both the angle-ply and cross-ply laminates. Excellent correlations between the present results and available solutions show the validity of the approach. The deficiencies of the solutions available in the literature are compensated. New results for other angle-ply and cross-ply laminates are also provided.

AbstractThis paper deals with the problem of stress distribution in orthotropic and laminated plates subjected to central concentrated load. An equivalent single layer trigonometric shear deformation theory taking into account transverse shear deformation effect as well as transverse normal strain effect is used to obtain in-plane normal and transverse shear stresses through the thickness of plate. Governing equations and boundary conditions of the theory are obtained using the principle of virtual work. A simply supported plate with central concentrated load is considered for the numerical analysis. Anomalous behavior of inplane normal and transverse shear stresses is observed due to effect of stress concentration compared to classical plate theory and first order shear deformation theory.

This paper will try to overcome two difficulties encountered by the C0 three-node triangular element based on the displacement-based higher-order models. They are (i) transverse shear stresses computed from constitutive equations vanish at the clamped edges, and (ii) it is difficult to accurately produce the transverse shear stresses even using the integration of the three-dimensional equilibrium equation. Invalidation of the equilibrium equation approach ought to attribute to the higher-order derivations of displacement parameters involved in transverse shear stress components after integrating three-dimensional equilibrium equation. Thus, the higher-order derivatives of displacement parameters will be taken out from transverse shear stress field by using the three-field Hu–Washizu variational principle before the finite element procedure is implemented. Therefore, such method is named as the preprocessing method for transverse shear stresses in present work. Because the higher-order derivatives of displacement parameters have been eliminated, a C0 three-node triangular element based on the higher-order zig-zag theory can be presented by using the linear interpolation function. Performance of the proposed element is numerically evaluated by analyzing multilayered sandwich plates with different loading conditions, lamination sequences, material constants and boundary conditions, and it can be found that the present model works well in the finite element framework.

3D Finite Element Method

Nowadays Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs) are used as actuators in many applications such as aerospace structures. In sandwich structures, the SMA wires or plates are used in the skins for shape control of the structure or vibration damping. In this paper, bending behavior of sandwich plates with embedded SMA wires in their skins is studied. 3D finite element method is used for construction and analysis of the sandwich plate with a flexible core and two stiff skins. Some important points such as continuity conditions of the displacements, satisfaction of interlaminar transverse shear stresses, the conditions of zero transverse shear stresses on the upper and lower surfaces and in-plane and transverse flexibility of soft core are considered for accurate modeling and analysis of sandwich structures. Solution for bending analysis of sandwich plates under various transverse loads are presented and the effect of many parameters such as plate dimensions, loading conditions, material properties of core, skins and SMA wires are studied. Comparison of the present results in special case with those of the three-dimensional theory of elasticity and some plate theories confirms the accuracy of the proposed model.
