Abstract. Through the uniaxial compressive test, the mechanical parameters and the complete stress-strain curves were obtained, which presented a brittle failure of the mudstone samples of the No.21coal seam in West Henan. Soft rock was regarded as no brittle in its failure usually, but in fact it was exactly. It showed that yield failure occurred in some areas and tension occurred inside the specimens because of the samples’ inhomogeneous deformation. The comprehensive decision method of mining surrounding rock’s brittleness was suggested: the brittleness index was more than 25; the strain of rock at failure was less than 3%, and there was brittle stress drop in the complete stress-strain curve.

Three different definitions of the yield point have been used in experimental work on the yield locus: proportional limit, proof strain and the ‘yield point’ by backward extrapolation. The theoretical implications of the ‘yield point’ by backward extrapolation are examined in an analysis of the loading and re-loading stress paths. It is shown, in connection with experimental results by Miastkowski and Szczepinski, that the proportional limit found by inspection is in fact a point located by backward extrapolation based on a small section of the stress-strain curve, near the elastic portion of the curve. The effect of different definitions of the yield point on the shape of the yield locus and some considerations for the choice between them are discussed.

Redistribution of residual stresses in a stamped sheet metal leads to the springback phenomenon. Springback phenomenon is well predicted for some mild steel materials, but not for steels with higher strengths. Nowadays, one of the most used tools to stamping optimization is usage of numerical simulations. In this paper was investigated sheet metal behavior under cyclic tension-compression test. Special fixture which serves as a buckling prevention of sheet metal in the compression phase of measuring stress-strain curve was designed. Obtained stress-strain curve was used to the definition of kinematic hardening model in numerical simulation. This model was verified with the real experiment in deep drawing process.

The present study deals with the extended version of our previous research work. In this article, for predicting the entire weld bead geometry and engineering stress–strain curve of the cold metal transfer (CMT) weldment, a MATLAB based application window (second version) is developed with certain modifications. In the first version, for predicting the entire weld bead geometry, apart from weld bead characteristics, x and y coordinates (24 from each) of the extracted points are considered. Finally, in the first version, 53 output values (five for weld bead characteristics and 48 for x and y coordinates) are predicted using both multiple regression analysis (MRA) and adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) technique to get an idea related to the complete weld bead geometry without performing the actual welding process. The obtained weld bead shapes using both the techniques are compared with the experimentally obtained bead shapes. Based on the results obtained from the first version and the knowledge acquired from literature, the complete shape of weld bead obtained using ANFIS is in good agreement with the experimentally obtained weld bead shape. This motivated us to adopt a hybrid technique known as ANFIS (combined artificial neural network and fuzzy features) alone in this paper for predicting the weld bead shape and engineering stress–strain curve of the welded joint. In the present study, an attempt is made to evaluate the accuracy of the prediction when the number of trials is reduced to half and increasing the number of data points from the macrograph to twice. Complete weld bead geometry and the engineering stress–strain curves were predicted against the input welding parameters (welding current and welding speed), fed by the user in the MATLAB application window. Finally, the entire weld bead geometries were predicted by both the first and the second version are compared and validated with the experimentally obtained weld bead shapes. The similar procedure was followed for predicting the engineering stress–strain curve to compare with experimental outcomes.

Abstract We have investigated a relation between micromechanical processes and the stress-strain curve of a dry fiber network during tensile loading. By using a detailed particle-level simulation tool we investigate, among other things, the impact of “non-traditional” bonding parameters, such as compliance of bonding regions, work of separation and the actual number of effective bonds. This is probably the first three-dimensional model which is capable of simulating the fracture process of paper accounting for nonlinearities at the fiber level and bond failures. The failure behavior of the network considered in the study could be changed significantly by relatively small changes in bond strength, as compared to the scatter in bonding data found in the literature. We have identified that compliance of the bonding regions has a significant impact on network strength. By comparing networks with weak and strong bonds, we concluded that large local strains are the precursors of bond failures and not the other way around.

Combined with the silty soil characteristics of the Yellow River alluvial plain and the subgrade filling of Ji-He expressway, the paper discusses silty soil, stabilized silty soil strength and stress-stain characteristics through the indoor triaxial shear test. The results show that the remodeling silty soil has obvious peak, brittle failure, low residual strength after being destroyed and the stress-strain curve shows a softening type in confining pressure 100kPa lower stress level. In the confining pressure 400kPa higher stress level, soil samples peak is not obvious,mainly plastic failure and the stress-strain curve is close to a hardening type. Compared to mixed with 8% lime, stabilized silty soil of mixed with 4% cement and 4% lime shows that the partial stress peak is more obvious when destroyed and the residual strength is drastically reduced and more incline to brittle failure. In different the age, compared to mixed with 8% lime, stabilized silty soil of mixed with 4% cement and 4% lime shows that internal friction angle becomes larger and cohesion improves gradually whose amplitude is much larger than internal friction angle. Therefore, a more effective way to stabilize the silty soil of the Yellow River alluvial plain is to select silty soil mixed with 4% cement and 4% lime.

Exposure of buildings to fire is one of the unexpected events during the life of the structure. The heat from the fire can reduce the strength of structural members, and these damaged members need to be strengthened. Repair and strengthening of concrete members by fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites has been one of the most popular methods in recent years and can be used in fire-damaged concrete members. In this paper, in order to provide further data and information about the behavior of post-heated circular concrete columns confined with FRP composites, 30 cylindrical concrete specimens were prepared and subjected under four exposure temperatures of 300, 500, 700, and 900. Then, specimens were repaired by carbon fiber reinforced polymer composites and tested under axial compression. Results indicate that heating causes the color change, cracks, and weight loss of concrete. Also, with the increase of heating temperature, the shape of stress–strain curve of FRP-retrofitted specimens will change. Therefore, the main parts of the stress–strain curve such as ultimate stress and strain and the elastic modulus will change. Thus, a new stress–strain model is proposed for post-heated circular concrete columns confined by FRP composites. Results indicate that the proposed model is in a good agreement with the experimental data.
