The coupled systems of fatigue crack initiation problem undergoing large range damage is defined. The zero different work principle, coupled potential energy principle, coupled complementary energy principle in the coupled system is established. By using of coupled potential energy principle, Closed form solution about predicting fatigue crack initiation life of three-dimensional component which leads to large range damage is derived. Compared with reference [1], the close form solution derived from this some. It is proved that the method is correct. The method adopted in this paper is definite in mechanical concept,it can be widely used in analysis of predicting fatigue crack initiation life of various component which leads to large range damage.

Abstract The stability analysis of a thin rectangular plate loaded in compression is presented. The nonlinear FEM equations are derived from the minimum total potential energy principle. The peculiarities of the effects of the initial imperfections are investigated using the user program. Special attention is paid to the influence of imperfections on the post-critical buckling mode. The FEM computer program using a 48 DOF element has been used for analysis. Full Newton-Raphson procedure has been applied.

By constructing the compressive bar element and developing the stiffness matrix, most issues about the compressive bar can be solved. In this paper, based on second derivative to the equilibrium differential governing equations, the displacement shape functions are got. And then the finite element formula of compressive bar element is developed by using the potential energy principle and analytical shape function. Based on the total potential energy variation principle, the static and geometrical stiffness matrices are proposed, in which the large deformation of compressive bar is considered. To verify the accurate and validity of the analytical trial function element proposed in this paper, a number of the numerical examples are presented. Comparisons show that the proposed element has high calculation efficiency and rapid speed of convergence.

As a consequence of post-buckling due to high residual stresses caused by the cold-rolling process, long free thin strips frequently show excessive wavy surface. In this paper, a new analytical approach by extending a classic post-buckling analysis method based on the minimum potential energy principle is used to study on the influence of strip thickness and width on the post-buckling deformation for the center and edge wave. It is concluded that the thickness of the strip has significant effect on the flatness defects, while the width does not.

A nesting system based on minimum potential energy principle and intelligent optimization for ship part nesting problem was proposed. Discussing polygon judgment and separation, intersection test and collision problems of ship parts, a kind of polygon overlap detection method was put forward, and contacting process was analyzed by use of envelope rectangle intersection test algorithm; During analyzing ship part nesting process based on minimum potential energy principle and genetic algorithm fusion, basic physical meaning of nesting problem was explained from mechanics. Throng intelligent ship part nesting system verification, the algorithm is feasible, physical meaning is clear; it can realize ship part nesting.
