Theoretical Results

The Preisach model already successfully implemented for axial and bending cyclic loading is applied for modeling of the plateau problem for mild steel. It is shown that after the first cycle plateau disappears an extension of the existing Preisach model is needed. Heat dissipation and locked-in energy is calculated due to plastic deformation using the Preisach model. Theoretical results are verified by experiments performed on mild steel S275. The comparison of theoretical and experimental results is evident, showing the capability of the Presicah model in predicting behavior of structures under cyclic loading in the elastoplastic region. The purpose of this paper is to establish a theoretical background for embedded sensors like regenerated fiber Bragg gratings (RFBG) for measurement of strains and temperature in real structures. In addition, the present paper brings a theoretical base for application of nested split-ring resonator (NSRR) probes in measurements of plastic strain in real structures.

Parametric Studies

In this study, detailed finite element analysis was conducted to examine the seismic performance of square and circular hollow steel braces under axial cyclic loading. Finite element models of braces were constructed using ABAQUS finite element analysis (FEA) software and validated with experimental results from previous papers to expand the specimen’s matrix. The influences of cross-section shape, slenderness ratio, and width/diameter-to-thickness ratio on hysteretic behavior and compressive-tensile strength degradation were studied. Simulation results of parametric studies show that both square and circular hollow braces have a better cyclic performance with smaller slenderness and width/diameter-to-thickness ratios, and their compressive-tensile resistances ratio significantly decreases from cycle to cycle after the occurrence of the global buckling of braces.

Brittle Fracture Criteria

Abstract The increasing application of composite materials in the construction of machines causes strong need for modelling and evaluating their strength. There are many well known hypotheses used for homogeneous materials subjected to monotone and cyclic loading conditions, which have been verified experimentally by various authors. These hypotheses should be verified also for composite materials. This paper provides experimental and theoretical results of such verifications for bimaterial structures with interfacial cracks. Three well known fracture hypotheses of: Griffith, McClintock and Novozhilov were chosen. The theoretical critical load values arising from each hypotheses were compared with the experimental data including uni and multi-axial loading conditions. All tests were carried out with using specially prepared specimens of steel and PMMA.

Theoretical Results

The form of the deposits that are taking place on the sea-bottom at the present day is one of the essential elements required to be known when we wish to interpret the submarine contours, as throwing light on the submergence or elevation of the land in late geological times, or when we propose to use the variation of thickness of the strata deposited during any epoch as an indication of the position of the shore-lines at that time.In the case of deposits in small or temporary masses of water, their form and arrangement may sometimes be observed directly; but in the case of the deposits in the sea, where we can neither remove the water nor make borings beneath it, we can only avail ourselves of theoretical considerations.It might have been expected that the original form of various sedimentary deposits would have been considered in detail long ago, but as a matter of fact the few writers who have touched upon the question have mostly been content with the assumption that deposits taken as a whole are thickest near the source of supply, and the figures given in illustration of the arrangement of various kinds, and thereby the shape of each, are remarkable for their variety.As the theoretical results at which I have arrived differ fundamentally from the ordinary assumptions, it is to be hoped that some one will be able to point out the fallacy, if any, which has led me astray, and to explain more satisfactorily the observed features which appear to confirm the theory.

Theoretical Results

A thermodynamic approach was used to describe the formation and magnetoelectric response of composite multiferroic films. Experimental and theoretical results that address the origins of different phase morphologies in epitaxial spinel-perovskite nanostructures grown on differently oriented substrates are presented. A theoretical model of magnetoelectric coupling in multiferroic nanostructures that considers a microscopic mechanism of magnetization in single-domain magnetic nanorods is described. This model explains a discontinuous electromagnetic coupling, as observed experimentally, and predicts a hysteretic behavior of magnetization under external electric fields.

Analytical Result

In a seismic incident, the structural steel columns are commonly damaged with local buckling formulation at either the top or bottom ends. This study analyzes and simulates the hysteretic behavior of a hollow square steel column under cyclic loading by adopting the fiber-element approach. This method discretizes the hinge zone into a series of fibers and considers buckling behavior of those fibers along the column wall. The analytical result was achieved in good agreement with the component test.

Ductile Behavior

Structures are expected to have ductile behavior under major earthquakes. One requirement to achieve this ductile behavior is when the structures have no shear failures in their elements. This paper discusses a new method by using the embedded steel truss in the flexural plastic hinges of beam to avoid shear failure. As already known that the shear strength provided by the concrete will be decreased when the ductility of flexural plastic hinges develop in a member. Therefore, a conservative procedure by ignoring the role of concrete in flexural plastic hinges in resisting the shear demand is adopted by some codes. This will increase the demand for shear reinforcement provided by the stirrup or transverse reinforcement in the plastic hinge; yet it still does not ensure that the shear failure does not come to happen. From the laboratory test results under cyclic loading in this study, it can be noted that the beam with embedded steel truss in the plastic hinge has better hysteretic behavior than the one without the embedded steel truss. The evaluation of test result is also shown the strength of the beam with the embedded steel truss in the plastic hinge is not reduced with an increase in the amplitude of the drift of 1.4 to 3.5. Besides, the strength of the beam without embedded steel truss in the plastic hinge is reduced with an increase in the amplitude of the drift after reaching 2.5.

Energy Dissipation Capacity

Rhombic mild-steel plate damper (also named rhombic added damping and Stiffness (RADAS)) is a newly proposed and developed bending energy dissipation damper in recent years, and its mechanical properties, seismic behavior, and engineering application still need further investigations. In order to determine the basic mechanical performance of RADAS, fundamental material properties tests of three types of mild-steel specimen including domestically developed mild-steel material with low yield strength were carried out. Then, a quasistatic loading test was performed to evaluate the mechanical performance and hysteretic energy dissipation capacity of these rhombic mild-steel dampers manufactured by aforementioned three types of steel materials. Test results show that yield strength of domestically developed low yield strength steel (LYS) is remarkably lower than that of regular mild steel and its ultimate strain is also 1/3 larger than that of regular mild steel, indicating that the low yield strength steel has a favorable plastic deformation capability. The rhombic mild-steel plate damper with low yield strength steel material possesses smaller yield force and superior hysteretic energy dissipation capacity; thus they can be used to reduce engineering structural vibration and damage during strong earthquakes.
