Vibration Effect

A physical experiment approach was conducted to observe the deformation of double-porosity soil under vibration effect. The double-porosity soil characteristic was created using kaolin soil. An experiment on a soil sample fitted with accelerometer was conducted on a vibratory table to obtain peak ground acceleration and peak surface acceleration. After the vibration process, the deformable double-porosity soil was verified through field emission scanning electron microscopy tests. As seen in the microscope images, large surface cracks were observed due to the weakness of aggregated kaolin soil structure with its 25% water content. However, the 30% water content soil had small surface cracks due to its stronger soil structure. It was found that the deformable double-porosity soil had more fractured pores compared to the intact soil sample. From the acceleration response analysis, it was seen that both samples had amplification and dis-amplification shaking. In conclusion, the fractured double-porosity, as expected, has high permeability become a dominant factor in fluid migration. Meanwhile, the unconstrained soil and large fracture structure fabric showed significantly different porosity. The percentage of water content plays an important role in the structure of fractured double-porosity soil.

Longitudinal Residual Stress

Detailed residual stress analysis was performed for a multi-pass butt weld, representing the middle butt-girth weld of a storage tank. The analysis procedures addressed welding parameters, joint detail, weld pass deposition sequence, and temperature-dependent properties. The predicted residual stresses were then considered in stress intensity factor calculations using a three-dimensional finite element alternating model (FEAM) for investigating crack growth behavior for both small elliptical surface and through-wall cracks. Two crack orientations were considered: one is parallel to the vessel girth weld and the other is perpendicular to the girth weld. Since the longitudinal (parallel to weld) and transverse (perpendicular to weld) residual stresses exhibit drastically different distributions, a different crack growth behavior is predicted. For a small surface crack parallel to the weld, the crack tends to grow more quickly at the surface along the weld rather than into the thickness. The self-equilibrating nature of the transverse residual stress distribution suggests that a through-wall crack parallel to crack cannot be fully developed solely due to residual stress actions. For a crack that is perpendicular to the weld, a small surface crack exhibit a rapid increase in K at the deepest position, suggesting that a small surface crack has the propensity to become a through-wall crack. Once the through crack is fully developed, a significant re-distribution in longitudinal residual stress can be seen. As a result, in the absence of external loads there exists a limiting crack length beyond which further crack growth is deemed unlikely.
