Deformation Stage

The application of a recent field theory of deformation and fracture to nondestructive testing (NDT) is discussed. Based on the principle known as the symmetry of physical laws, the present field theory formulates all stages of deformation including the fracturing stage on the same theoretical basis. The formalism derives wave equations that govern the spatiotemporal characteristics of the differential displacement field of solids under deformation. The evolution from the elastic to the plastic stage of deformation is characterized by a transition from longitudinal (compression) wave to decaying longitudinal/transverse wave characteristics. The evolution from the plastic to the fracturing stage is characterized by transition from continuous wave to solitary wave characteristics. Further, the evolution from the pre-fracturing to the final fracturing stage is characterized by transition from the traveling solitary wave to stationary solitary wave characteristics. In accordance with these transitions, the criterion for deformation stage is defined as specific spatiotemporal characteristics of the differential displacement field. The optical interferometric technique, known as Electronic Speckle-Pattern Interferometry (ESPI), is discussed as an experimental tool to visualize those wave characteristics and the associated deformation-stage criteria. The wave equations are numerically solved for the elastoplastic stages, and the resultant spatiotemporal behavior of the differential displacement field is compared with the experimental results obtained by ESPI. Agreement between the experimental and numerical results validates the present methodology at least for the elastoplastic stages. The solitary wave characteristics in the fracturing stages is discussed based on the experimental results and dislocation theory.

For many solitary wave applications, various approximate models have been proposed. Certainly, the most famous solitary wave equations are the K-dV, BBM and Boussinesq equations. The K-dV equation was originally derived to describe shallow water waves in a rectangular channel. Surprisingly, the equation also models ion-acoustic waves and magneto-hydrodynamic waves in plasmas, waves in elastic rods, equatorial planetary waves, acoustic waves on a crystal lattice, and more. If we describe all of the above situation, we must be needed a solution function of their governing equations. The Tan-cot method is applied to obtain exact travelling wave solutions to the generalized Korteweg-de Vries (gK-dV) equation and generalized Benjamin-Bona- Mahony (BBM) equation which are important equations to evaluate wide variety of physical applications. In this paper we described the soliton behavior of gK-dV and BBM equations by analytical system especially using Tan-cot method and shown in graphically.

Reinforced Concrete Slabs

The paper presents the experimental results of strength and deformability of reinforced concrete slabs on yielding supports arranged along the perimeter under the dynamic loading. Crushable ring-shaped inserts deforming at the elastic, plastic and curing stages are considered as yielding supports. The displacement, velocity and acceleration are evaluated depending on the deformation stage of yielding supports. The high efficiency is shown for the use of yielding supports, which leads to a significant reduction in the structure displacement, strain, and stress.

An elliptical anisotropic medium is defined as a simplified representation of anisotropy in which the anelliptic parameters are set to zero in all symmetry planes. Despite of the fact that this model is rather seldom observed for real rocks, it is often used as a reference model. The P-wave equations for an elliptical anisotropic medium is well known. However, the S-wave equations have not been derived. Thus, we define all wave modes in elliptical orthorhombic models focusing mostly on the S-wave properties. We show that all wave modes in elliptical orthorhombic model are generally coupled and analyze the effect of additive coupling term. As the result, there is an S wave fundamental singularity point located in one of the symmetry planes depending on the relative magnitude of S wave stiffness coefficients.

Laboratory studies were conducted in an attempt to find out a relationship between beach and wave characteristics when equilibrium conditions are reached in beach wave interaction for the simple case of regular waves acting normal to the beach. Experimental results indicate the existence of stable points on beach profiles where the coordinates of the profile do not change with time when waves of constant characteristics act on the beach. Emperical relationship between the wave and beach properties are proposed. A new criterion for classification of beach profiles is indicated.

Mode Ii Fracture Toughness

Due to the increase in prevalence of fibre-reinforced polymer matrix composites (FRPMC) in aircraft structures, the need for adaption of failure prediction tools such as fatigue spectra has become more pertinent. Fracture toughness is an important measure with regard to fatigue, while adequate techniques and an ASTM standard for unidirectional FRPMC exist, there are mixed opinions when investigating woven FRPMC. This study describes a three-dimensional finite element model developed to assist in determining the mode II interlaminar fracture toughness ( GIIc) of fibre-reinforced woven composites, validated by an experimental and numerical comparison of GIIc determination for unidirectional FRPMC. Experimental testing mirroring the ASTM D7905 resulted in a measure of 1176 J m−2for the unidirectional specimen, while comparisons made with the literature achieved an average value of 1459.24 J m−2or the woven specimen. Three numerical methods were employed due to their prominence in the literature: displacement field, virtual crack closure techniques and the J integral. Both the J integral and the displacement field three-dimensional models produced satisfactory unidirectional GIIc estimates of 1284 and 1116.8 J m−2, respectively. Displacement field had a 5% uncertainty in GIIc when compared with experimental results, while J integral had an approximately 8.5% uncertainty. Extending the analysis to the woven specimens, values of 1302.8 and 1465.3 J m−2were obtained from J integral and displacement field methods, respectively, both within 10% of the experimental values. Hence, numerically determined unidirectional GIIc values were verified with experimental results, leading to the successful employment and extension to woven composites which displayed similar agreement.

Shallow Water Wave Equations

A mathematical model of flow on a sloping breakwater face is described and results of calculations compared with some experimental results to show how the model can be calibrated. Flow above the surface of the slope is represented by the shallow water wave equations solved by a finite difference method. Flow within the breakwater is calculated by one of two methods. A solution of the linear seepage flow equations, again using finite differences or a simplified model of inflow can be used. Experimental results for runup and reflection coefficient are from tests performed at HRL Wallingford.
