This work presents a brief review of the literature on the theory and technique of computation of pivotally-connected structures on a linearly-elastic foundation. The authors refer to the works of B.G.Korenev, G.Ya.Popov, I.A.Simvulidi, R.V.Serebryany and A.G.Yuryev, in which investigations for calculating the pivotally-connected beams and slabs on an elastic foundation are performed using different approaches. From the analysis of the scientific and normative literature on the subject under consideration, a conclusion can be made that there is no common approach to solution of this problem, which would hold for any pivotally connected structures being in contact with any elastic foundation model under the action of an arbitrary external load. Besides, when designing the load carrying members of pavements of motor roads of various purposes in the Republic of Belarus, a number of branch-specific normative documents, where the pavements with the load carrying member and interconnection of members over the track length are considered separately in unconnected setting, is used. In this work, a universal approach for computation of pivotally-connected beams on an elastic foundation in the linear setting and taking into account the physical nonlinearity of the beam material is proposed. This approach is based on a mixed method of structural mechanics and implemented in different foundations taking into account the Zhemochkins relations for the functions of influences of an elastic medium. The following hypotheses and assumptions of the linear theory of elasticity and structural mechanics are taken into consideration: only normal stresses act at the contact of the beam with the foundation for beams the hypotheses of the flexural theory the pivot joints are cylindrical and the distribution of the contact stresses over the beam width is uniform. The physical nonlinearity of the beam material is taken into consideration through the variable rigidity of the Zhemochkins areas. Namely: after determining the forces in the Zhemochkins bonds at the contact of every beam with an elastic foundation as a result of the linear computation, the values of bending moments in each section of every beam are determined by the structural mechanics methods. From the calculated values of the moments, the tangential rigidity for each Zhemochkins area on the beam is determined using the formula of the moment-curvature dependence for the beam sections are determines as hyperbolic tangent. In the results of nonlinear computation, the stress-strain behaviour of the system of pivotally-connected beams on an elastic foundation is investigated as it was made earlier in the linear setting: distribution of contact stresses under the beams, internal forces in the beams and pivot joints as well as elastic foundation settlements. The proposed approach is implemented numerically with the use of the Mathematica 10.4 mathematical package. The computation example for three pivotally-connected beams on the Winkler foundation taking into account their physical nonlinearity.В работе приводится краткий обзор литературы по теории и методикам расчета шарнирно-соединенных конструкций на линейно-упругом основании. Авторы ссылаются на работы Б. Г. Коренева, Г. Я. Попова, И. А. Симвулиди, Р. В. Серебряного, А. Г. Юрьева, в которых различными подходами проведены исследования по расчету шарнирно-соединенных балок и плит на упругом основании. Из анализа научной и нормативной литературы по рассматриваемой тематике можно сделать вывод об отсутствии общего подхода к решению этой проблемы, справедливого для любых шарнирно-соединенных конструкций, контактирующих с любой моделью упругого основания под действием произвольной внешней нагрузки. Кроме того, при проектировании несущих элементов дорожных покрытий автомобильных дорог различного назначения в Республике Беларусь используется ряд отраслевых нормативных документов, в которых дорожная одежда с несущим элементом и соединение элементов между собой по длине трассы рассматриваются отдельно, в несвязной постановке. В данной работе предлагается универсальный подход для расчета шарнирно-соединенных балок на упругом основании в линейной постановке и с учетом физической нелинейности материала балок. Этот подход основан на смешанном методе строительной механики и реализуется в разных основаниях с учетом соотношений Жемочкина для функций влияний упругой среды. В расчет принимаются следующие гипотезы и допущения линейной теории упругости и строительной механики: на контакте балки с основанием действуют только нормальные напряжения, для балок справедливы гипотезы теории изгиба, шарниры между балками являются цилиндрическими, распределение контактных напряжений по ширине балок равномерное. Физическая нелинейность материала балок в предлагаемом расчете учитывается через переменную жесткость участков Жемочкина. А именно: после определения усилий в связях Жемочкина на контакте каждой балки с упругим основанием в результате линейного расчета, методами строительной механики определяются величины изгибающих моментов в каждом сечении каждой балки. По вычисленным значениям моментов определяется касательная жесткость для каждого участка Жемочкина на балках по формуле зависимости момент-кривизна для сечений балки в виде гиперболического тангенса. В результатах нелинейного расчета, как и ранее в линейной постановке, исследуется напряженно-деформированное состояние системы из шарнирно-соединенных балок на упругом основании: распределение контактных напряжений под балками, внутренние усилия в балках и шарнирных соединениях, а также осадки упругого основания. Численная реализация предлагаемого подхода выполнена с использованием математического пакета Mathematica 10.4. Приведен пример расчета для трех шарнирно-соединенных балок на основании Винклера с учетом их физической нелинейности.

The paper provides a brief review of the literature on the theory and methods of calculating hinged-connected or articulated structures on an elastic base. The author refers to the works of B. G. Korenev, G. Ya. Popov, I. A. Simvulidi, R. V. Serebryany, A. G. Yuriev, in which, using various approaches, studies have been carried out to calculate hinged-connected beams and slabs on an elastic base. From the analysis of  scientific literature on the topic under consideration, it can be concluded that there is no general approach to solving this problem, which is valid for any hinged-connected beams and plates lying on any model of an elastic base under the action of an arbitrary external load.  In addition, a similar problem for this type of engineering calculations is observed in the normative documents. In the Republic of Belarus, a number of industry documents have been used to calculate pavement bearing elements for various highways and track transverse structures, in which road pavements with a load-bearing element and the connection of elements between themselves (hinged or rigid) are considered in an incoherent formulation. The paper proposes a universal approach for calculating hinged-connected beams on an elastic foundation, based on the mixed method of structural mechanics, taking into account the Zhemochkin ratios for functions of the elastic medium effects. The following hypotheses and assumptions are taken into account: only normal stresses act on  the  contact  of  the  beam  with the base, hypotheses  of  the bending  theory are valid  for beams,  hinges  between  the beams are cylindrical, and the distribution of contact stresses along the width of the beams is uniform. As a result of the proposed calculation, the stress-strain state of a system of hinged-connected beams on an elastic foundation has been investigated, namely: distribution of contact stresses under beams, internal forces in the beams and hinged joints, as well as settlements of the elastic foundation under them. The numerical implementation of this approach has been performed using the mathematical package Mathematica 10.4. Examples of calculation are given for different versions of hinged-connected beams and an elastic base: for three hinged-connected beams based on Winkler and seven – on an elastic half-space.

Abstract The buckled wave length and the critical in-plane bending moment of laminated long composite strips of cord-reinforced rubber sheets on an elastic foundation is analyzed by Galerkin's method, with consideration of interlaminar shear deformation. An approximate formula for the wave length is given in terms of cord angle, elastic moduli of the constituent rubber and steel cord, and several structural dimensions. The calculated wave length for a 165SR13 automobile tire with steel breakers (belts) was very close to experimental results. An additional study was then conducted on the post-buckling behavior of a laminated biased composite beam on an elastic foundation. This beam is subjected to axial compression. The calculated relationship between the buckled wave rise and the compressive membrane force also agreed well with experimental results.

Abstract When measuring bearing forces of the tire-wheel assembly during drum tests, it was found that beyond certain speeds, the horizontal force variations or so-called fore-aft forces were larger than the force variations in the vertical direction. The explanation of this phenomenon is still somewhat an open question. One of the hypothetical models argues in favor of torsional oscillations caused by a changing rolling radius. But it appears that there is a simpler answer. In this paper, a mathematical model of a tire consisting of a rigid tread ring connected to a freely rotating wheel or hub through an elastic foundation which has radial and torsional stiffness was developed. This model shows that an unbalanced mass on the tread ring will cause an oscillatory rolling motion of the tread ring on the drum which is superimposed on the nominal rolling. This will indeed result in larger fore-aft than vertical force variations beyond certain speeds, which are a function of run-out. The rolling motion is in a certain sense a torsional oscillation, but postulation of a changing rolling radius is not necessary for its creation. The model also shows the limitation on balancing the tire-wheel assembly at the wheel rim if the unbalance occurs at the tread band.

This work is devoted to the formulation and construction of an analytical solution to the problem of contact between a cylindrical viscoelastic aging pipe with an internal thin coating and an insert having a complex shape placed inside the pipe with an interference fit. In practice, the presence of such coatings is required, for example, to protect the main structure from aggressive external or internal environments, for its electrical insulation, etc. The manufacturing process of the inner coating determines its possible heterogeneity (dependence of properties on coordinates). An insert placed inside a pipe can have a complex profile that has a rapidly changing function. Taking these features into account is important when analyzing the stress-strain state of pipes with an internal coating. Using an approach based on the use of special basis functions and the type of solution, a representation for the contact stresses in the pipe in the region of the rigid insert is obtained. This approach makes it possible to distinguish functions that describe the properties of the inner coating and the shape of the outer profile of the insert in the form of separate terms and factors in the expression for the contact stresses in the insert region. Therefore, in order to achieve high accuracy when carrying out calculations, it is sufficient to restrict ourselves to a relatively small number of terms

The paper considers the system "beam - elastic foundation", in which a beam with free edges was at first on a solid elastic foundation, but when a defect suddenly forms in the foundation under the right side of the beam, part of foundation was removed from design model. As a result of calculations performed by the method of initial parameters, the displacements and internal forces for the static problem are determined. The dynamic problem of determining the forces and displacements was solved, taking into account the three vibration loads F (t) = F sinγt applied at arbitrary points d when the conditions for supporting the right side of the beam on an elastic foundation were changed, the values of the dynamics coefficients were determined. Conditions are formulated that must be taken into account when analyzing the dynamic behavior of a structure under the influence of vibration loads in the case of a change in the conditions of bearing on an elastic foundation.
