The stability of structures is an important aspect that the designer must pay particular attention to in order to ensure safety against collapse. This investigation is concerned with analytical and numerical analyses of the dynamic buckling of plane structures. A rigorous mechanical model is proposed, consisting of a beam-column element with nodal ends possessing two rotational springs of rigidities acting in parallel with the bending stiffness of the beam-column. The model is first analyzed with respect to the dynamic behavior by investigating the influence of the variation in the stiffness of the nodal springs on the fundamental frequency of the proposed mechanical model. Compression axial loading is applied to the beam-column in order to study the nonlinear dynamic behavior by introducing buckling. This novel approach is used to highlight the interaction between the fundamental frequency and the critical buckling load. Simple examples are treated using the approach and the results are compared with those obtained from a global analysis. The results revealed that it is possible to reproduce the stability analysis of a global structure by simply analyzing a target element, taking into account all elements adjacent to it with less than 1% error on the results.

Abstract The dynamic behavior of printed circuit (PC) boards exercises strong influence on the reliability of electronic equipment. In this paper, the dynamic behavior of a PC board is studied by means of computation and verified by experiment with results compared favorably. This shows that FE modeling strategy used is sound. In general, excitement frequencies induced by external environment are in the range from several Hz to several hundred Hz. In order to avoid product failures due to resonance, it is desirable to make the fundamental natural frequency of PC boards as high as possible. Two structural modified design methods to raise the fundamental frequency are given with a numerical example.

The problem of post-buckling behavior of composite cylindrical shells reinforced in the axial and circumferential directions and subject to axial loading is considered. The equations of equilibrium of an imperfect shell are formulated in terms of displacements. Then the sufficient conditions of imperfection in sensitivity for both static and dynamic buckling problems are formulated. This general analysis is applied to a particular case of axisymmetric buckling of ring-stiffened shells which appear to be practically imperfection-insensitive.

This study aimed to explore the safe and efficient top-coal caving mining under thin topsoil of shallow coal seam (SCS) and realize the optimization of hydraulic support. Numerical simulation and theoretical analysis were used to reveal the stress distribution of the topsoil, the structure characteristics of the main roof blocks, and the development of the roof subsidence convergence. Step subsidence of the initial fractured main roof after sliding destabilization frequently existed, which seriously threatened the safety of the hydraulic supports. Hence, a mechanical model of the main roof blocks, where the topsoil thickness was less than the minimum height of the unloading arch, was established, and the mechanical criterion of the stability was achieved. The working resistance of the hydraulic support was calculated, and the reasonable type was optimized so as to avoid crushing accident. Findings of the present analysis indicated that the hydraulic support optimization was mainly affected by fractured main roof blocks during the first weighting. According to the block stability mechanical model based on Mohr–Coulomb criterion, the required working resistance and the supporting intensity were determined as 4899 kN and 0.58 MPa, respectively. The ZZF5200/19/32S low-position top-coal caving hydraulic support was selected for the studied mine and support-surrounding rock stability control of thin-topsoil SCS could be achieved without crushing accident.

The study of evolution laws of the mining-induced stress in floor strata affected by overhead mining is extremely important with respect to the stability and support of a floor roadway. Based on the geological conditions of the drainage roadway in the 10th district in a coalmine, a mechanical model of a working face for overhead mining over the roadway is established, and the laws influencing mining stress on the roadway in different layers are obtained. The evolution of mining stress in floor with different horizontal distances between the working face and the floor roadway that is defined as LD are examined by utilizing UDEC numerical simulation, and the stability of roadway is analyzed. The results of the numerical simulation are verified via on-site tests of the deformation of the surrounding rocks and bolts pull-out from the drainage roadway. The results indicate that the mining stress in floor is high, which decreases slowly within a depth of less than 40 m where the floor roadway is significantly affected. The mining stress in the floor increases gradually, and the effect of the mining on the roadway is particularly evident within 0 m ≤ LD ≤ 40 m. Although the floor roadway is in a stress-relaxed state, the worst stability of the surrounding rocks is observed during the range -20 m ≤ LD < 0 m, in which the negative value indicates that the working face has passed the roadway. The roadway is affected by the recovery of the abutment stress in the goaf when -60 m ≤ LD <20 m, and thus it is important to focus on the strengthening support. The results may provide a scientific basis for establishing a reasonable location and support of roadways under similar conditions.

Nowadays, industrialists, especially those in the automobile and aeronautical transport fields, seek to lighten the weight of different product components by developing new materials lighter than those usually used or by replacing some massive parts with thin-walled hollow parts. This lightening operation is carried out in order to reduce the energy consumption of the manufactured products while guaranteeing optimal mechanical properties of the components and increasing quality and productivity. To achieve these objectives, some research centers have focused their work on the development and characterization of new light materials and some other centers have focused their work on the analysis and understanding of the encountered problems during the machining operation of thin-walled parts. Indeed, various studies have shown that the machining process of thin-walled parts differs from that of rigid parts. This difference comes from the dynamic behavior of the thin-walled parts which is different from that of the massive parts. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to first highlight some of these problems through the measurement and analysis of the cutting forces and vibrations of tubular parts with different thicknesses in AU4G1T351 aluminum alloy during the turning process. The experimental results highlight that the dynamic behavior of turning process is governed by large radial deformations of the thin-walled workpieces and the influence of this behavior on the variations of the chip thickness and cutting forces is assumed to be preponderant. The second objective is to provide manufacturers with a practical solution to the encountered vibration problems by improving the structural damping of thin-walled parts by additional damping. It is found that the additional structural damping increases the stability of the cutting process and reduces considerably the vibrations amplitudes.

AbstractThe isosceles three-body problem with Sitnikov-type symmetry has been reduced to a two-dimensional area-preserving Poincaré map depending on two parameters: the mass ratio, and the total angular momentum. The entire parameter space is explored, contrasting new results with ones obtained previously in the planar (zero angular momentum) case. The region of allowable motion is divided into subregions according to a symbolic dynamics representation. This enables a geometric description of the system based on the intersection of the images of the subregions with the preimages. The paper also describes the regions of allowable motion and bounded motion, and discusses the stability of the dominant periodic orbit.
