SummaryA theoretical solution to the initial buckling under shear stress of a long clamped plate with parallel edges reinforced by a stiffener mesh is obtained. The mesh is formed by two families of stiffeners each evenly spaced. One family consists of longitudinal stiffeners parallel to the edges of the plate and the other consists of diagonal stiffeners inclined to the parallel edges. The flexural and torsional rigidity of the stiffeners are included in the analysis. Numerical results are given for the special case in which the longitudinal stiffeners are absent and the diagonal stiffeners have flexural rigidity only.

SummaryThe paper presents a solution to the buckling under shear stress of infinitely long plates which are reinforced by both transverse stiffeners and longitudinal stiffeners. Each family of stiffeners is assumed to consist of equally spaced stiffeners. Both simply-supported and clamped edge conditions are examined. Numerical results are obtained for the case of a plate with transverse stiffeners and a central longitudinal stiffener and relationships between the buckling stress and the flexural rigidity parameters of the stiffeners are provided for three different spacings of the transverse stiffeners.

SummaryThe paper presents a solution to the buckling of infinitely long plates when they are reinforced by transverse stiffeners possessing both torsional and flexural rigidity. The cases of both edges being clamped and simply-supported are dealt with. Numerical results are presented for the ratio of torsional rigidity to flexural rigidity as obtained with a thin-walled circular tube. When the stiffeners are completely rigid, in which case the individual panels are clamped along the transverse edges, the results obtained are in agreement with existing solutions for isolated rectangular plates.

SummaryThe paper presents a solution to the buckling under shear stress of infinitely long plates orthogonally reinforced by stiffeners having both flexural and torsional rigidity. Each family of stiffeners is assumed to consist of equally spaced identical stiffeners. Numerical results are given for the case of a plate with transverse stiffeners and a central longitudinal stiffener for the following three cases: (i)Transverse and longitudinal stiffeners of closed tubular cross-section.(ii)Transverse stiffeners of closed tubular cross-section, longitudinal stiffeners possessing only flexural rigidity.(iii)Transverse stiffeners possessing only flexural rigidity, the longitudinal stiffeners being of closed tubular cross-section.Relationships between the buckling stress parameter K and the flexural rigidity parameter γ of the stiffeners are presented for each of the three cases when the identical transverse stiffeners are placed at spacings of d, 0·8d and 0·5d, where d is the depth of the webplate.Case (i) has provided values of the buckling coefficient K for finite rectangular plates clamped on three edges and simply-supported on the remaining edge.

SummaryThe paper provides relationships between the buckling resistance of simply-supported transversely stiffened plates and the flexural rigidity of the stiffeners for various values of the ratio of torsional rigidity to nexural rigidity. Results are presented for four different stiffener spacings.

This paper presents a theoretical solution to the problem of determining the buckling characteristics of an axially compressed, long, cylindrical shell which contains a solid or elastic core with a modulus lower than that of the shell. The buckling mode is assumed to be sinusoidal in both the axial and circumferential directions, with the bellows mode taken as a special case. Numerical results are obtained for the buckling characteristics of cylinders with solid cores. These results are found similar to those of P. Seide, who considered the bellows buckling mode.

Abstract Treadwear is explained by specific mechanical properties and actions of tires. Rubber shear stresses in the contact zone between the tire and the road become large at large slip angles. When normal stresses are insufficient to prevent sliding at the rear of the footprint, wear occurs at a rate that depends on test severity. Two experimental approaches are described to relate treadwear to tire characteristics. The first uses transducers imbedded in a simulated road surface to obtain direct measurements of contact stresses on the loaded, freely-rolling, steered tires. The second approach is developed with the aid of a simple carcass, tread-band, tread-rubber tire model. Various tire structural configurations; characterized by carcass spring rate, edgewise flexural band stiffness, and tread rubber shear stiffness; are simulated and lateral shear stress response in the contact zone is determined. Tires featuring high band stiffness and low carcass stiffness generate lower lateral shear stress levels. Furthermore, coupling of tread-rubber stiffness and band flexural rigidity are important in determining level of shear stresses. Laboratory measurements with the described apparatus produced values of tread-band bending and carcass lateral stiffness for several tire constructions. Good correlation is shown between treadwear and a broad range of tire stiffness and test course severities.

AbstractThe onset of thermal convection in two-dimensional porous cavities heated from below is studied theoretically. An open (constant-pressure) boundary is assumed, with zero perturbation temperature (thermally conducting). The resulting eigenvalue problem is a full fourth-order problem without degeneracies. Numerical results are presented for rectangular and elliptical cavities, with the circle as a special case. The analytical solution for an upright rectangle confirms the numerical results. Streamlines penetrating the open cavities are plotted, together with the isotherms for the associated closed thermal cells. Isobars forming pressure cells are depicted for the perturbation pressure. The critical Rayleigh number is calculated as a function of geometric parameters, including the tilt angle of the rectangle and ellipse. An improved physical scaling of the Darcy–Bénard problem is suggested. Its significance is indicated by the ratio of maximal vertical velocity to maximal temperature perturbation.

Silverman's game on intervals was analyzed in a special case by Evans, and later more extensively by Heuer and Leopold-Wildburger, who found that optimal strategies exist (and gave them) quite generally when the intervals have no endpoints in common. They exist in about half the parameter plane when the intervals have a left endpoint or a right endpoint, but not both, in common, and (as Evans had earlier found) exist only on a set of measure zero in this plane if the intervals are identical. The game of Double-Silver, where each player has its own threshold and penalty, is examined. There are several combinations of conditions on relative placement of the intervals, the thresholds and penalties under which optimal strategies exist and are found. The indications are that in the other cases no optimal strategies exist.

Ni2MnGa alloy with 10M martensite exhibits rearrangement of martensite variants (RMV) by magnetic field, but Ni2.14Mn0.92Ga0.94 with 2M martensite does not. In order to explain the difference, we measured uniaxial magnetocrystalline anisotropy constant Ku and the stress required for twinning plane movement τreq in these alloys. Concerning the former alloy, the maximum value of magnetic shear stress acting across twinning plane τmag, which is evaluated as |Ku| divided by twinning shear, becomes larger than τr eq. On the other hand, concerning the latter alloy, the maximum of τmag is only one-tenth of τreq at any temperature examined. Obviously, the relation, τmag> τr eq, is satisfied when RMV occurs by magnetic field and vice versa. In this martensite, the large twinning shear of 2M martensite is responsible for small τmag and large τreq.
