This paper focuses on the buckling instabilities of periodic porous elastomers under combined multiaxial loading. A numerical model based on the periodic boundary condition (PBC) for the 2D representative volume element (RVE) is proposed, in which two proportional loading parameters are employed to control the complex stressing state applied to the RVE model. A homogenization-based orthogonal transformation matrix is established by satisfying the equality of the total work rate to realize a proportional multiaxial loading on the RVE. First, the transition behavior of buckling patterns of periodic porous structures is revealed through instability analysis for the RVE consisting of [Formula: see text] primitive cells with circular holes subjected to different proportional loading conditions. Simulation results show that the first-order buckling mode of RVE may change suddenly from a uniaxial shearing buckling pattern to a biaxial rotating buckling pattern at a critical loading proportion. Then the influences of the number of primitive cells in the enlarged RVE on the buckling behavior are discussed. When the number of primitive cells in any enlarging direction is odd, the points of buckling pattern transition of the enlarged RVEs vary significantly with the number of cells in RVE. When the number of primitive cells is even in both enlarging directions, there is no apparent difference for the critical buckling stresses of the enlarged RVEs.

Grain Boundary Misorientation

304LN stainless was subjected to multiaxial loading employing different waveforms and load paths. The grain boundary misorientation profile so obtained post deformation was compared across loading conditions. It was found that the uniaxial and proportional conditions of loading result in more of twins, contrary to non-proportional loading conditions that resulted in substantially higher low angle grain boundaries. Also, under non-proportional loading the trapezoidal load path resulted in remarkably altered distribution of the grain boundaries compared to its contemporaries. Predominant martensitic transformation was found to be dominant mechanism of deformation for trapezoidal loading that also contributed to the altered misorientation profile.

AbstractSome of the current concrete damage plasticity models in the literature employ a single damage variable for both the tension and compression regimes, while a few more advanced models employ two damage variables. Models with a single variable have an inherent difficulty in accounting for the damage accrued due to tensile and compressive actions in appropriately different manners, and their mutual dependencies. In the current models that adopt two damage variables, the independence of these damage variables during cyclic loading results in the failure to capture the effects of tensile damage on the compressive behavior of concrete and vice-versa. This study presents a cyclic model established by extending an existing monotonic constitutive model. The model describes the cyclic behavior of concrete under multiaxial loading conditions and considers the influence of tensile/compressive damage on the compressive/tensile response. The proposed model, dubbed the enhanced concrete damage plasticity model (ECDPM), is an extension of an existing model that combines the theories of classical plasticity and continuum damage mechanics. Unlike most prior studies on models in the same category, the performance of the proposed ECDPM is evaluated using experimental data on concrete specimens at the material level obtained under cyclic multiaxial loading conditions including uniaxial tension and confined compression. The performance of the model is observed to be satisfactory. Furthermore, the superiority of ECDPM over three previously proposed constitutive models is demonstrated through comparisons with the results of a uniaxial tension-compression test and a virtual test.

Buckling Behavior

The buckling behavior of functionally graded carbon nanotube reinforced composite conical shells (FG-CNTRC-CSs) is here investigated by means of the first order shear deformation theory (FSDT), under a combined axial/lateral or axial/hydrostatic loading condition. Two types of CNTRC-CSs are considered herein, namely, a uniform distribution or a functionally graded (FG) distribution of reinforcement, with a linear variation of the mechanical properties throughout the thickness. The basic equations of the problem are here derived and solved in a closed form, using the Galerkin procedure, to determine the critical combined loading for the selected structure. First, we check for the reliability of the proposed formulation and the accuracy of results with respect to the available literature. It follows a systematic investigation aimed at checking the sensitivity of the structural response to the geometry, the proportional loading parameter, the type of distribution, and volume fraction of CNTs.

Strength And Stiffness

The use of composite stiffened panels is common in several activities such as aerospace, marine and civil engineering. The biggest advantage of the composite materials is their high specific strength and stiffness ratios, coupled with weight reduction compared to conventional materials. However, any structural system may reach its limit and buckle under extreme circumstances by a progressive local failure of components. Moreover, stiffened panels are usually assembled from elementary parts. This affects the geometric as well as the material properties resulting in a considerable sensitivity to buckling phenomenon. In this work, the buckling behavior of a composite stiffened panel made from carbon Epoxy Prepregs is studied by using the finite element analysis under Abaqus software package. Different plies orientations sets were considered. The initial distributed geometric imperfections were modeled by means of the first Euler buckling mode. The nonlinear Riks method of analysis provided by Abaqus was applied. This method enables to predict more consistently unstable geometrically nonlinear induced collapse of a structure by detecting potential limit points during the loading history. It was found that plies orientations of the composite and the presence of geometric imperfections have huge influence on the strength resistance.

This paper also shows a method of visually presenting the stress/strain, the non-proportionality of loading and the damage evaluation.

The present work studies the buckling behavior of functionally graded (FG) porous rectangular plates subjected to different loading conditions. Three different porosity distributions are assumed throughout the thickness, namely, a nonlinear symmetric, a nonlinear asymmetric and a uniform distribution. A novel approach is proposed here based on a combination of the generalized differential quadrature (GDQ) method and finite elements (FEs), labeled here as the FE-GDQ method, while assuming a Biot’s constitutive law in lieu of the classical elasticity relations. A parametric study is performed systematically to study the sensitivity of the buckling response of porous structures, to different input parameters, such as the aspect ratio, porosity and Skempton coefficients, along with different boundary conditions (BCs) and porosity distributions, with promising and useful conclusions for design purposes of many engineering structural porous members.

This article aims to shed light on the nonlinear local-distortional-global interactive behavior of web-slotted channel columns by use of the finite element method. The effects of three kinds of initial geometric imperfection based on different distortional buckling mode were evaluated. It indicates that different distortional buckling mode does little difference on the nonlinear interactive buckling behavior of web-slotted channels. Based on the extensive parametric study, some modifications were made to the traditional Effective Width Method for the practical design of web-slotted channel columns undergoing local-distortional-global interactive buckling.
