Abstract The use of brittle coatings in stress analysis is discussed in this paper. Particular reference is made to the “Stresscoat” materials and method which can effect quantitative analyses within the elastic range by use of brittle coatings alone. In the plastic range, the flaking off of the coating is shown to be caused by a compression component of strain of about 1 per cent. Graphs and illustrations show the effect of such variables as coat thickness, time of dry, temperature and humidity, creep, and bubbles in the coating. Test procedure is outlined. Application of the method to a part from a high-speed sewing machine shows stress values and correlation of results with fatigue failures. Another application illustrated is a plate, penetrated by a bullet, showing elastic and plastic deformations during the impact loading.

Для модели сжимаемого идеального изотропного упругопластического тела рассмотрена задача о полом шаре, на внешнюю и внутреннюю границы которого заданы разные давление и температура. Решается несвязанная задача в рамках теории малых деформаций. Принимается, что полные деформации равны сумме упругих и пластических деформаций, пластические деформации и напряжения связаны соотношениями ассоциированного закона течения. Упругие деформации определяются из соотношений закона Дюамеля–Неймана. Выбирается условие пластичности, не зависящее от первого инварианта тензора напряжений. При определении напряжения и деформации в пластической области рассматривается квазистатический подход, т.е. не указывается закон изменения внешних параметров воздействия (давление и температура на границах шара) до значений, принимаемых при вычислениях. В настоящей работе определены границы изменения перепада давления и температуры, для которых шар будет находиться в упругом состоянии. Установлено, что в зависимости от значений внешних параметров воздействия пластическая зона может зарождаться на внутренней или на внешней границе шара, или на внутренней и внешней границах одновременно, или между границами шара. В качестве примера приведены графики распределений напряжений, деформаций, перемещений, когда пластическая зона занимает некоторую часть, расположенную между внутренней и внешней границей шара. Приводятся графики годографа напряжений, которые являются элементами верификации решения задачи. В настоящей работе учитывается внешнее и внутреннее давление на полый шар, а также температура внешней и внутренней границы шара, что приводит к более общей постановке задачи и необходимости построения разных алгоритмов ее решения. Также определены области изменения внешних параметров, при которых полый шар находится в определенном состоянии. Ключевые слова: упругопластическое тело, теория пластического течения, температурные напряжения, полый шар, допустимые значения внешних параметров, термоупругопластичность, упругопластическая граница, эквивалентное напряжение. The problem of a hollow sphere with different pressure and temperature levels on the external and the internal boundaries has been considered for the model of an ideal compressible isotropic elastic body. An independent problem is solved within the theory of small strains. It is assumed that total deformations are equal to the sum of elastic and plastic deformations, plastic deformations and stresses are related by the relations of the associated flow law. Elastic deformations are determined by their correlation under the DuhamelNeumann law. The plasticity condition which is independent of the first invariant of the stress tensor is considered. In determination of stress and strain in the plastic range a quasi-static approach is considered, that is, the law of changing the external parameters of the action (pressure and temperature at the boundaries of the sphere) to the values assumed in the calculations is not indicated. In this article, the boundaries of the pressure drop and temperature for which the sphere will be in an elastic state are determined. It has been established that depending on the values of the external parameters of the impact, the plastic zone can occur on the inner or outer boundary of the sphere, or on the inner and outer boundaries simultaneously, or between the boundaries of the sphere. As an example, the graphs of the distributions of stresses, deformations, displacements when the plastic zone occupies a certain part located between the inner and outer boundary of the sphere are given. The stress hodograph graphs which are integral elements of verification of the solution of the problem are given. Keywords: elastoplastic body, theory of plastic flow, temperature stresses, hollow sphere, permissible values of external parameters, thermoelastic elasticity, elastic-plastic boundary, equivalent stress.

The paper presents the results of investigations of the effect of impact pressure (in the range of both elastic and plastic deformations) on the parameters of the positron lifetime spectra in PE-UMHW polymer known under the trade mark Chirulen1120. The changes in the long-living component of the positron lifetime spectrum, connected with the annihilation of o-Ps in the pick-off process, are analyzed in dependence on the impact energy. The impact duration in the Charpy’s tests depending on the impact energy was measured, too. The dependencies of the radius of the volume of empty spaces in which the positronium annihilates, on the impact pressure were determined applying the Eldrup-Tao model.

Abstract In an effort to understand the dynamic hub forces on road vehicles, an advanced free-rolling tire-model is being developed in which the tread blocks and tire belt are modeled separately. This paper presents the interim results for the tread block modeling. The finite element code ABAQUS/Explicit is used to predict the contact forces on the tread blocks based on a linear viscoelastic material model. Special attention is paid to investigating the forces on the tread blocks during the impact and release motions. A pressure and slip-rate-dependent frictional law is applied in the analysis. A simplified numerical model is also proposed where the tread blocks are discretized into linear viscoelastic spring elements. The results from both models are validated via experiments in a high-speed rolling test rig and found to be in good agreement.

Railway noise is calculated to predict the impact of new or reconstructed railway tracks on nearby residential areas. The results are used to prepare adequate counter- measures, and the calculation results are directly related to the cost of the action plans. The calculated values were used to produce noise maps for each area of inter- est. The Schall 03 2012 is one of the most frequently used methods for the production of noise maps. The latest version was released in 2012 and uses various input para- meters associated with the latest rail vehicles and track systems in Germany. This version has not been sufficiently used in South Korea, and there is a lack of standard guidelines and a precise manual for Korean railway systems. Thus, it is not clear what input parameters will match specific local cases. This study investigates the modeling procedure for Korean railway systems and the differences between calcu- lated railway sound levels and measured values obtained using the Schall 03 2012 model. Depending on the location of sound receivers, the difference between the cal- culated and measured values was within approximately 4 dB for various train types. In the case of high-speed trains, the value was approximately 7 dB. A noise-reducing measure was also modeled. The noise reduction effect of a low-height noise barrier system was predicted and evaluated for operating railway sites within the frame- work of a national research project in Korea. The comparison of calculated and measured values showed differences within 2.5 dB.

This paper measures the spatial evolution of urban agglomerations to understand be er the impact of high-speed rail (HSR) construction, based on panel data from fi ve major urban agglomerations in China for the period 2004–2015. It is found that there are signi ficant regional diff erences of HSR impacts. The construction of HSR has promoted population and economic diff usion in two advanced urban agglomerations, namely the Yang e River Delta and Pearl River Delta, while promoting population and economic concentration in two relatively less advanced urban agglomerations, e.g. the middle reaches of the Yang e River and Chengdu–Chongqing. In terms of city size, HSR promotes the economic proliferation of large cities and the economic concentration of small and medium-sized cities along its routes. HSR networking has provided a new impetus for restructuring urban spatial systems. Every region should optimize the industrial division with strategic functions of urban agglomeration according to local conditions and accelerate the construction of inter-city intra-regional transport network to maximize the eff ects of high-speed rail across a large regional territory.

Rotating systems components such as rotors, have dynamic characteristics that are of great importance to understand because they may cause failure of turbomachinery. Therefore, it is required to study a dynamic model to predict some vibration characteristics, in this case, the natural frequencies and mode shapes (both of free vibration) of a centrifugal compressor shaft. The peculiarity of the dynamic model proposed is that using frequency and displacements values obtained experimentally, it is possible to calculate the mass and stiffness distribution of the shaft, and then use these values to estimate the theoretical modal parameters. The natural frequencies and mode shapes of the shaft were obtained with experimental modal analysis by using the impact test. The results predicted by the model are in good agreement with the experimental test. The model is also flexible with other geometries and has a great time and computing performance, which can be evaluated with respect to other commercial software in the future.

Abstract We study the effects of inelastic dark matter self-interactions on the internal structure of a simulated Milky Way (MW)-size halo. Self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) is an alternative to collisionless cold dark matter (CDM) which offers a unique solution to the problems encountered with CDM on sub-galactic scales. Although previous SIDM simulations have mainly considered elastic collisions, theoretical considerations motivate the existence of multi-state dark matter where transitions from the excited to the ground state are exothermic. In this work, we consider a self-interacting, two-state dark matter model with inelastic collisions, implemented in the Arepo code. We find that energy injection from inelastic self-interactions reduces the central density of the MW halo in a shorter timescale relative to the elastic scale, resulting in a larger core size. Inelastic collisions also isotropize the orbits, resulting in an overall lower velocity anisotropy for the inelastic MW halo. In the inner halo, the inelastic SIDM case (minor-to-major axis ratio s ≡ c/a ≈ 0.65) is more spherical than the CDM (s ≈ 0.4), but less spherical than the elastic SIDM case (s ≈ 0.75). The speed distribution f(v) of dark matter particles at the location of the Sun in the inelastic SIDM model shows a significant departure from the CDM model, with f(v) falling more steeply at high speeds. In addition, the velocity kicks imparted during inelastic collisions produce unbound high-speed particles with velocities up to 500 km s−1 throughout the halo. This implies that inelastic SIDM can potentially leave distinct signatures in direct detection experiments, relative to elastic SIDM and CDM.
