This work deals with the analysis in the frequency domain of the temperature signal and mechanical energy rate of C45 steel under two different fatigue stepwise loading series at stress ratios of 0.1 and -1. It was first investigated the energy distribution among the harmonic components of the signals to understand possible variations caused by a different stress ratio. In addition, the second amplitude harmonic (SAH) of heat dissipated and mechanical energy rates have been considered in the analysis and their relationship was investigated. It has been shown as it depends only on the material, hence it is valid whatever the kind of the test is without any assumption on the energy supplied to the material or material hysteresis loop stabilisation. The adopted approach allows the analysis of intrinsic dissipations by means of rapid, full-field and contactless techniques without any specific requirement on loading condition or temperature signal stabilisation.

During horizontal well staged fracturing, there is stress interference between multiple transverse fractures in the same perforation cluster. Theoretical analysis and numerical calculation methods are applied in this study. We analysed the mechanism of induced stress interference in a single fracture under different fracture spacings and principal stress ratios. We also investigated the hydraulic fracture morphology and synchronous expansion process under different fracture spacings and principal stress ratios. The results show that the essence of induced stress is the stress increment in the area around the hydraulic fracture. Induced stress had a dual role in the fracturing process. It created favourable ground stress conditions for the diversion of hydraulic fractures and the formation of complex fracture network systems, inhibited fracture expansion in local areas, stopped hydraulic fractures, and prevented the formation of effective fractures. The curves of the maximum principal stress, minimum principal stress, and induced principal stress difference with distance under different fracture lengths, different fracture spacings, and different principal stress ratios were consistent overall. With a small fracture spacing and a small principal stress ratio, intermediate hydraulic fractures were difficult to initiate or arrest soon after initiation, fractures did not expand easily, and the expansion speed of lateral hydraulic fractures was fast. Moreover, with a smaller fracture spacing and a smaller principal stress ratio, hydraulic fractures were more prone to steering, and even new fractures were produced in the minimum principal stress direction, which was beneficial to the fracture network communication in the reservoir. When the local stress and fracture spacing were appropriate, the intermediate fracture could expand normally, which could effectively increase the reservoir permeability.

Most previous studies have focused on the small strain stiffness of sedimentary soil while little attention has been given to residual soils with different properties. Most studies also neglected the effects of the deviator stress, which is extensively involved in civil engineering. This note considers the effects of the deviator stress on the small-strain stiffness of natural granite residual soil (GRS) as established from resonant column tests performed under various stress ratios. Although increasing the stress ratio results in a greater maximum shear modulus for both natural and remolded residual soils, remolded soil is more sensitive to changes in the stress ratio, which highlights the effects of soil cementation. The data herein offers new insights to understand the stiffness of residual soil and other weathered geomaterials.

The Relationship

In this article, a novel electro-mechanical energy conversion model of power harvesting from the vibration-induced the piezoelectric stator of the traveling wave rotary ultrasonic motor was proposed. Based on the curvature basis approach, the relationship between the deduced voltage and the mechanical stain induced by piezoelectric polarization was formulated. In addition to the relationships between the maximum induced voltages at the resonance frequency, the conversion energy density and the dimensions of the piezoelectric stator were also derived. The analytical model shows that the vibration-induced voltage is proportional to the exciting electrical voltage magnitude and square of height of the piezoelectric ceramic (PZT) but is inversely proportional to the permittivity of PZT and the damping coefficient of the stator. Some simulations and experimental results demonstrate that the maximum output voltage coincides with the energy conversion analytical model.

Deviations in the operation of the operated bridge structures on the railway are detected when damage occurs. At the same time, early detection and prognosis of damage progress can be obtained using monitoring systems. The article presents the methods and technologies for the use of mobile monitoring systems for assessing the actual operation of the metal superstructure of the railway bridge with the main driving trusses. The hardware of the measuring complex is considered, the main measuring instrument is the glued electrical strain gauges. The monitoring system kept a continuous record of sensor readings for 28 days. To process the data received by the monitoring system, specialized software has been developed that systematizes the incoming information. Analysis of the actual supertructure operation is carried out by finding the relationship of stresses in the various elements of the superstructure, arising under the same load. This approach allowed us to exclude the factor of unknown intensity of the temporary load. The results of monitoring the work of the superstructure are given. In total, over 680 train passage records were analyzed, which allowed for a statistical description of the data. The theoretical values of the relationship of stresses in the elements of the superstructure are determined using the apparatus of the influence lines obtained by a numerical method. The conclusions are made about the distribution of deformations of the superstructure under temporary load and about the degree of compliance with theoretical calculations. The construction factors and the values of their statistical scatter are determined, the actual dynamic factors are statistically calculated. The construction factors calculated from the stress ratios lie in the range of 0.8-1.116. Dynamic factors are within 1.13 and do not exceed the rated values.

The Relationship

The effect of acidosis on left ventricular (LV) mechanoenergetics was assessed in seven excised, cross-circulated dog hearts with the use of the frameworks of the contractility index (Emax) and the relationship between myocardial oxygen consumption (VO2) and pressure-volume area (PVA; a measure of the LV total mechanical energy). Acidosis was stably maintained without hypoxia by appropriately mixing CO2 and air in a membrane oxygenator in the coronary arterial perfusion circuit. Acidosis [pH: 6.98 +/- 0.09 (SD), PCO2: 91 +/- 25 mmHg in the coronary arterial blood] decreased Emax by 45 +/- 12% (P < 0.01) and PVA by 47 +/- 12% (P < 0.01) at a fixed LV volume. When the preacidosis Emax level was restored by Ca2+ infusion during acidosis, unloaded VO2 (the VO2 intercept of the VO2-PVA relation) exceeded the control value by 19 +/- 17% (P < 0.05), indicating that acidosis required higher VO2 for nonmechanical activities at a matched Emax. Moreover, the oxygen cost of enhanced contractility (the incremental ratio of unloaded VO2 to Emax) was 1.53 +/- 0.40 times higher (P < 0.01) during acidosis than preacidosis. We conclude that acidosis results in LV contractile dysfunction accompanied by an increased oxygen cost of contractility. This increased energy cost of the excitation-contraction coupling can be accounted for by a decreased Ca2+ sensitivity of the contractile proteins during acidosis.

The reference stress method (RSM) is a classical method to estimate [Formula: see text]-integral of creep crack. An extended reference stress method (ERSM) is given for the central cracked plate (CCP) under biaxial loading in this paper. The applicability and verification for the proposed ERSM is given. The study finds that the solutions with the proposed ERSM agree better than those of RSM under biaxial loading condition. A theoretical form to predict the relationship of [Formula: see text]-integral between biaxial loading and uniaxial loading is discussed. Relation between [Formula: see text]-integral and creep time under biaxial loading is validated and discussed.

Triaxial Compression Tests

The paper presents the results of laboratory triaxial compression tests to study the stiffness of very loose Fraser River sands. The stiffness has been shown to be very dependent on the time of confinement prior to shearing and the stress ratio at which the sample is aged. Higher stress ratios resulted in very low initial moduli with no ageing, but the moduli increased by several hundred percent during the first 1000 min of ageing. For ageing at a stress ratio of 1.0 (i.e., isotropic ageing), the initial moduli were higher than those for ageing at high stress ratios, but the stiffness increased by only about 60% during the first 1000 min of ageing. The rate of stiffness increase was approximately linear with the logarithm of time up to ageing times of 10 000 min (>1 week). Ageing at any stress ratio resulted in reduced contractive volumetric strain during subsequent shearing, reflecting a change in soil structure during ageing. The dεv /dεa ratio under triaxial compression loading decreased as the ageing stress ratio increased. The results suggest that close attention must be paid to the age of laboratory samples prepared to study the stress–strain response of sands at strains up to about 0.1%, particularly in studies on loose sand.Key words: sands, ageing, creep, modulus.
