To investigate the tensile properties of brittle rock with microdamage, an indirect tensile test was conducted. High-speed image acquisition and acoustic emission (AE) were applied to record the process. After the tests, the images were analysed using the digital image correlation (DIC) method to obtain the stress and strain development of the rock under tension. The damage constitutive model was also developed in this study. Based on known and assumed statistical distributions for microcracks and the theory of fracture and statistical damage, the mechanical properties and failure mechanisms of brittle rock under tension were analysed. The basic statistical parameters of the main cracks in the elements were described, and the damage variable was defined to develop the effective modulus. A constitutive model for microdamage brittle rock-like materials was established based on the effective modulus. Additionally, to describe the crack propagation, a random-direction crack under tension was analysed to calculate the crack-tip stress intensity factor. After applying the basic parameters of the sandstone to the analytical model, the results showed that the analytical model agreed with the experimental results.

Deep brittle rock exhibits characteristics of rapid stress dropping rate and large stress dropping degree after peak failure. To simulate the whole process of deformation and failure of the deep brittle rock under load, the Lemaitre strain equivalent theory is modified to make the damaged part of the rock has residual stress. Based on the damage constitutive model considering residual strength characteristics, a correction factor reflecting stress dropping rate is added, the Weibull distribution is used to describe the inhomogeneity of rock materials, and Drucker–Prager criterion is used to quantitatively describe the influence of stress on damage; a damage constitutive model of deep brittle rock considering stress dropping characteristics is established. According to the geometric features of the rock stress-strain curve, the theoretical expressions of model parameters are derived. To verify the rationality of the model, triaxial compression experiments of deep brittle rock under different confining pressures are conducted. And the influence of model parameters on rock mechanical behaviour is analysed. The results show that the model reflects the stress dropping characteristics of deep brittle rock and the theoretical curve is in good agreement with the experimental results, which indicates that the proposed constitutive model is scientific and feasible.

The mechanical behavior of geomaterials under plane-strain biaxial stress state (PSBSS, a special case of biaxial stress state) is often considered in geotechnical structures such as highwall and longwall coal pillars. In this study, a modified statistical damage constitutive model based on Weibull distribution was established to explain the mechanical behavior of rocks under the PSBSS. The modified Wiebols-Cook criterion, Drucker-Prager criterion, and extremum method were adopted in this model to estimate the peak strength of rock, the strength level of microscopic element, and the statistical parameters of model, respectively. Besides, laboratory tests for brittle and ductile geomaterials under PSBSS were conducted using the modified surface instability detection apparatus to validate the accuracy of the proposed statistical damage model. Finally, the relationships between mechanical parameters and statistical parameters were studied and discussed.

Alkali-resistant glass fiber reinforced concrete (AR-GFRC) has greatly improved in terms of tensile strength, toughness, durability, and reduction of cracking, which has been proven by testing. However, the constitutive relationship of fiber reinforced concrete under complicated stress represents a complex theoretical problem. In order to investigate the microscopic damage evolution and failure mechanism of AR-GFRC, the meso-statistical damage theory, microcontinuum theory, and composite material theory were considered, and uniaxial tensile tests of two types of AR-GFRC were conducted. A new damage variable expression of the AR-GFRC was proposed, and the stress-strain curve was redefined by considering the residual strength based on experimental fitting parameters and statistical parameters. A Weibull distribution was assumed and a statistical damage constitutive model was developed of the deformation process of the AR-GFRC while considering the residual strength effect; detailed calculation methods to determine the mechanical and statistical parameters of the concrete were developed. The validation results show that the theoretical stress-strain curve of the constitutive model is in good agreement with the experimental curve and the trend is consistent.

Subsurface deformation of the cutting process has attracted a great deal of attention due to its tight relationship with subsurface hardening, microstructure alteration, grain refinement, and white layer formation. To predict the subsurface deformation of the machined components, an analytical model is proposed in this paper. The mechanical and thermal loads exerted on the workpiece by the primary and tertiary shear zones are predicted by a combination of Oxley's predictive model and Fang's slip line field. The stress field and temperature field are calculated based on contact mechanics and the moving heat source theory, respectively. However, the elastic–plastic regime induced by the material yielding hinders the direct derivation of subsurface plastic deformation from the stress field and the work material constitutive model. To tackle this problem, a blending function of the increment of elastic strain is developed to derive the plastic strain. In addition, a sophisticated material constitutive model considering strain hardening, strain rate sensitivity, and thermal softening effects of work material is incorporated into this analytical model. To validate this model, finite element simulations of the subsurface deformation during orthogonal cutting of AISI 52100 steel are conducted. Experimental verification of the subsurface deformation is carried out through a novel subsurface deformation measurement technique based on digital image correlation (DIC) technique. To demonstrate applications of the subsurface deformation prediction, the subsurface microhardness of the machined component is experimentally tested and compared against the predicted values based on the proposed method.

ABSTRACT This article presents a novel experimental technique for measuring in-plane deformations and vibration modes of a rotating nonpneumatic tire subjected to obstacle impacts. The tire was mounted on a modified quarter-car test rig, which was built around one of the drums of a 500-horse power chassis dynamometer at Clemson University's International Center for Automotive Research. A series of experiments were conducted using a high-speed camera to capture the event of the rotating tire coming into contact with a cleat attached to the surface of the drum. The resulting video was processed using a two-dimensional digital image correlation algorithm to obtain in-plane radial and tangential deformation fields of the tire. The dynamic mode decomposition algorithm was implemented on the deformation fields to extract the dominant frequencies that were excited in the tire upon contact with the cleat. It was observed that the deformations and the modal frequencies estimated using this method were within a reasonable range of expected values. In general, the results indicate that the method used in this study can be a useful tool in measuring in-plane deformations of rolling tires without the need for additional sensors and wiring.

The paper is focused on a theoretical analysis of the function of continuous flow mixer with the so-called gamma-distribution of fluid residence times, used as a linear filter smoothing undesirable fluctuations of input properties. A relation is derived expressing the degree of smoothing of the signal passing through the system, as a function of statistical parameters of this signal and of gamma-distribution of fluid-residence times in the mixer. The analysis of this relation leads to conclusions concerning the prediction of the operation of smoothing mixers or the design of their basic parameters.

Experimental characterization and validation of skin components in aircraft entails multiple evaluations (structural, aerodynamic, acoustic, etc.) and expensive campaigns. They require different rigs and equipment to perform the necessary tests. Two of the main dynamic characterizations include the energy absorption under impact forcing and the identification of modal parameters through the vibration response under any broadband excitation, which also includes impacts. This work exploits the response of a stiffened aircraft composite panel submitted to a multi-impact excitation, which is intended for impact and energy absorption analysis. Based on the high stiffness of composite materials, the study worked under the assumption that the global response to the multi-impact excitation is linear with small strains, neglecting the nonlinear behavior produced by local damage generation. Then, modal identification could be performed. The vibration after the impact was measured by high-speed 3D digital image correlation and employed for full-field operational modal analysis. Multiple modes were characterized in a wide spectrum, exploiting the advantages of the full-field noninvasive techniques. These results described a consistent modal behavior of the panel along with good indicators of mode separation given by the auto modal assurance criterion (Auto-MAC). Hence, it illustrates the possibility of performing these dynamic characterizations in a single test, offering additional information while reducing time and investment during the validation of these structures.

The dynamic constitutive behaviors of concrete-like materials are of vital importance for structure designing under impact loading conditions. This study proposes a new method to evaluate the constitutive behaviors of ordinary concrete at high strain rates. The proposed method combines the Lagrangian-inverse analysis method with optical techniques (ultra-high-speed camera and digital image correlation techniques). The proposed method is validated against finite-element simulation. Spalling tests were conducted on concretes where optical techniques were employed to obtain the high-frequency spatial and temporal displacement data. We then obtained stress–strain curves of concrete by applying the proposed method on the results of spalling tests. The results show non-linear constitutive behaviors in these stress–strain curves. These non-linear constitutive behaviors can be possibly explained by local heterogeneity of concrete. The proposed method provides an alternative mean to access the dynamic constitutive behaviors which can help future structure designing of concrete-like materials.

Experimental modal analysis is a relatively young part of dynamics, which deals with the vibration modes identification of machines or their parts. Its development has started since the beginning of the eighties, when the computers hardware equipment has improved and the fast Fourier transform (FFT) could be used for the results determination. Nowadays it provides an uncountable set of vibration analysis possibilities starting with conventional contact transducers of acceleration and ending with modern noncontact optical methods. In this contribution we mention the use of high-speed digital image correlation by experimental determination of mode shapes and modal frequencies. The aim of our work is to create a program application called Modan 3D enabling the performing of experimental modal analysis and operational modal analysis. In this paper the experimental modal analysis of a thin steel sample performed with Q-450 Dantec Dynamics is described. In Modan 3D the experiment data were processed and the vibration modes were determined. The reached results were verified by PULSE modulus specialized for mechanical vibration analysis.
