The results of an experimental and numerical studies of the stress-strain state of wall models under one and two way action are presented. The mechanisms of destruction of walls with openings are described. The functional dependencies between the destructive loads of the onset of crack formation and the influencing parameters are obtained. It is shown that the openings are stress concentrators, leading to the occurrence of micro and macro damage, the appearance and development of cracks, and in some cases to the loss of stability of structures (walls). The obtained influence functions can be included in traditional calculation methods with the aim of clarifying them. The factors affecting the process of cracking and fracture are given. Their modeling will allow to predict and prevent adverse events. Practical methods for regulating stresses, forces, and displacements that reduce the influence of various concentrators are considered. The analysis of the destruction mechanism of wall models carried out in this article allows one to study the influence of the size, position, and shape of window openings on the bearing capacity of walls. For example, the presence of stress concentrations in the region of the corners of square openings and their absence in round ones. The system of indicators of the sentry type ICh-10 made it possible to control the deformation of models from the plane of the walls, which is especially important under conditions of lateral pinching. The experimental values of the strength of the walls with openings compared with the calculated ones, which made it possible to see the degree of simplification of the classical calculation models used in design practice.

An approximate theoretical analysis is presented for the determination of stress concentration factors in thick walled cylinders with sideholes and crossholes. The cylinders are subjected to both internal pressure and external shrink-fit pressure. Stress concentration factors are plotted as functions of the geometrical ratios of outside diameter-to-bore diameter, and bore diameter-to-sidehole diameter. Theoretical results are compared to experimental values available in the literature and results of experiments described in a separate paper.

Nowadays cold bent steel thermal сold-bent С-profile is widely used in building construction but we still have some little studied questions in the fields of thermal conductivity, air permeability, resistibility and corrosion behavior of the profile. Cold-bent notched С-profile is used for interior exterior panel members. Lengthwise notches made chequerwise in the profile walls increase the distance of heat flow and decrease heat conductivity and eliminate cold bridges that is why the profile is called “thermal profile”. Cold-bent profile made by cold bending requires alternate approach when engineering structures are designed and maintained. The approach means thin walls’ and the profile special form’ impact on the bearing capacity and stability of the structures should be taken into account. In spite of the wide use of cold-bent notched C-profile in building frameworks, we see lack of information on how the notches influence the bearing capacity and stability of structures. There are no official normative documents on calculation and designing of cold-bent notched profile structures. We carry out theoretical and experimental investigations on global buckling and bearing capacity of steel members of C-shaped notched profiles of different cross-sections area. We carry out theoretical and experimental investigations on heat current passing through the thermal profile structure is held with the use of testing bed.

Eringen’s model is one of the most popular theories in non-local elasticity. It has been applied to many practical situations with the objective of removing anomalous stress concentrations around geometric shape singularities, which appear when local modelling is used. Despite the great popularity of Eringen’s model within the mechanical engineering community, even the most basic questions such as the existence and uniqueness of solutions have been rarely considered in research literature for this model. In this work we focus on precisely these questions, proving that the model is in general ill-posed in the case of smooth kernels, the case which appears rather often in numerical studies. We also consider the case of singular, non-smooth kernels and for the paradigmatic case of Riesz potential we establish the well-posedness of the model in fractional Sobolev spaces. For such a kernel, in dimension one the model reduces to the well-known fractional Laplacian. Finally, we discuss possible extensions of Eringen’s model to spatially heterogeneous material distributions.

The mechanical properties of T-shaped concrete-filled steel tubular (TCFST) short columns under axial compression after elevated temperature are investigated in this paper. A total of 30 TCFST short columns with different temperature (T), steel ratio (α), and duration of heating (t) were tested. The TCFST column was directly fabricated by welding two rectangular steel tubes together. The study mainly investigated the failure modes, the ultimate bearing capacity, the load-displacement, and the load-strain performance of the TCFST short columns. Experimental results indicate that the rectangular steel tubes of the TCFST column have deformation consistency, and the failure mode consists of local crack, drum damage, and shear failure. Additionally, the influence of high temperature on the residual bearing capacity of the TCFST is significant, e.g., a higher temperature can downgrade the ultimate bearing capacity. Finally, a finite element model (FEM) is developed to simulate the performance of the TCFST short columns under elevated temperature, and the results agree with experimental values well. Overall, this investigation can provide some guidance for future studies on damage assessment and reinforcement of the TCFST columns.

Characterization of tumor growth dynamics is of major importance for cancer understanding. By contrast with phenomenological approaches, mechanistic modeling can facilitate disclosing underlying tumor mechanisms and lead to identification of physical factors affecting proliferation and invasive behavior. Current mathematical models are often formulated at the tissue or organ scale with the scope of a direct clinical usefulness. Consequently, these approaches remain empirical and do not allow gaining insight into the tumor properties at the scale of small cell aggregates. Here, experimental and numerical studies of the dynamics of tumor aggregates are performed to propose a physics-based mathematical model as a general framework to investigate tumor microenvironment. The quantitative data extracted from the cellular capsule technology microfluidic experiments allow a thorough quantitative comparison with in silico experiments. This dual approach demonstrates the relative impact of oxygen and external mechanical forces during the time course of tumor model progression.

The steady-state slip flow of the rare gases (He, Ne, Ar, Kr, and Xe) and of propane, CO2, and SO2 has been studied at different temperatures in long, single glass capillaries. The results give values of viscosity which are in agreement with literature values when Ar is used as a calibrating gas. The results can be expressed as a linear plot of the non-dimensional permeability ratio K/K0 against reciprocal Knudsen number; the intercept on the K/K0 axis is a. The value of this intercept depends on both gas and temperature being higher for light gases and high temperatures than for more condensable gases and low temperatures. The parameter a is therefore replaced by ((2 – β)/β)a1 where (1 – β) is the so-called specular reflection coefficient and a1 is a constant. The factors affecting (1 – β) have been discussed. It is suggested that contributions to (1 – β) will arise both from elastically and from inelastically scattered molecules, and the magnitude of these contributions is assessed in terms of the properties of the gas and the surface. The expression finally obtained is compared with experimental values of (1 – β).
