Elastoplastic Bending

We present an analytical solution for elastic and elastoplastic bending problem of a curved beam composed of inhomogeneous materials. Suppose the material is isotropic, ideally elastoplastic and it obeys Tresca’s yield criterion and the corresponding associated flow rule. And the elastic modulus and yield limit of the material vary radially according to general power functions. The expressions of stresses and displacements of a curved beam in both purely elastic stress state and partially plastic stress state are derived. The influence of material inhomogeneity on the elastoplastic behavior of a curved beam is demonstrated in numerical examples. Analytical solutions presented here can serve as benchmark results for evaluating numerical solutions.

In this paper, the yield condition of Hill’s orthotropic yield criterion under axial symmetric plane stress state was discussed. The yield function of orthotropic material was proposed and the analytical solution to meet the condition of equations of equilibrium and compatibility under axial symmetric plane stress state is obtained, in which the conditions of power hardening materials was considered. The research result indicates that hardening coefficient and anisotropic parameter have substantial influence over stress and strain. However, in the presence of the coefficient R90=H/F，the influence appears to be quite weak.

Elastoplastic Damage

A micromechanical multi-level elastoplastic evolutionary damage framework is proposed to predict the overall transverse mechanical behavior and damage evolutions of cylindrical fiber-reinforced ductile composites. Progressively cracked fibers are modeled using the double-inclusion theory. The effective elastic moduli of three-phase composites, consisting of a matrix, randomly located yet monotonically aligned cylindrical uncracked fibers and cracked fibers, are derived by using a micromechanical formulation. In order to characterize the homogenized elastoplastic behavior, a micromechanical effective yield criterion is derived based on the ensemble-area averaging process and the first-order effects of eigenstrains. The resulting effective yield criterion, together with the overall associative plastic flow rule and the hardening law, constitutes the analytical framework for the estimation of effective transverse elastoplastic-damage responses of ductile composites containing both uncracked and cracked fibers. An evolutionary fiber cracking process, governed by the internal stresses and the fracture strength of fibers, is incorporated into the proposed work. The Weibull’s probabilistic distribution is employed to describe the varying probability of fiber cracking. Further, systematic numerical simulations are presented to illustrate the potential of the proposed methodology.

Dynamic Pulse

The occurrence of dynamic buckling of thick rings responding to an impulse load is investigated by analytical and numerical solutions to the equation of motion and by nonlinear finite element analyses. An extension to the linearized analytical solution is made using a finite difference scheme which incorporates a nonlinear moment-curvature relationship to model the effects of elastoplastic behavior and strain-rate reversal on the buckle formation. The finite element solution to the problem is formulated with the nonlinear code, ADINA. A comparison of the results shows that the numerical solutions (and, in particular, the ADINA solution) predict a significant reduction in the amplitude of buckling response and an increase in the predominant wavelength of response with time, in comparison to the linear analytical solution. A limited comparison to published experimental results of dynamic pulse buckling of thick rings is also given.

This paper presents a numerical model for analyzing the stresses and displacements of deformable bodies in contact with the presence of friction and material nonlinearity. Based on the finite element method (FEM), the elastoplastic frictional contact problem is formulated as an incremental convex programming model (ICPM) under inequality contact constraints and friction conditions. The classical Coulomb's friction law and the Prandtl–Reuss flow rule with the von Mises yield criterion are used to simulate the interface friction conditions and the elastoplastic behavior of the contacting bodies, respectively. The Lagrange multiplier approach is adopted for imposing the contact constraints. Furthermore, an effective adaptive incremental procedure is developed for solving the elastoplastic frictional contact problems. Examples for the frictional contact having advancing and receding nature are analyzed. The obtained results prove the ability of the developed procedure to investigate the sequence of different events during monotonic application of external loads. In addition, the results elucidate the effect of external side force on the friction behavior in the presence of plastic deformation. Good agreement has been found with published results.

Rockbolts are a critical reinforcement ways which widely used in tunnel engineering. In this paper, an analytical solution of circular tunnel with rockbolts was proposed based on homogenization method, and then the stability of a circular tunnel was investigated by considering the uncertainty based on the proposed analytical solution. Elastoplastic analytical solution for unsupported circular tunnel was presented briefly in hydrostatic stress field with a linear Mohr-Coulomb yield criterion and a non-associated flow rule. An analytical solution of circular tunnel with rockbolts was proposed through considering rock mass and rockbolts as a new homogeneous, isotropic, parameters strengthened equivalent composite material. A numerical example is used to verify the proposed analytical solution. The results show that the proposed solution can effectively characterize the mechanical behavior of rock mass and rockbolts in tunnel. Then, the proposed solution is adopted to calculate reliability index and failure probability of tunnel. The results show that the proposed method can also be effectively used to perform the stability and reliability analysis of tunnel and rockbolts have an important effect on plastic zone size and displacement of tunnel.

Abstract In this study, elastoplastic model for the surrounding rock of axisymmetric circular tunnel is investigated under three-dimensional (3D) principal stress states. Novel numerical solutions for strain-softening surrounding rock were first proposed based on the modified 3D Hoek–Brown criterion and the associated flow rule. Under a 3D axisymmetric coordinate system, the distributions for stresses and displacement can be effectively determined on the basis of the redeveloped stress increment approach. The modified 3D Hoek–Brown strength criterion is also embedded into finite element software to characterize the yielding state of surrounding rock based on the modified yield surface and stress renewal algorithm. The Euler implicit constitutive integral algorithm and the consistent tangent stiffness matrix are reconstructed in terms of the 3D Hoek–Brown strength criterion. Therefore, the numerical solutions and finite element method (FEM) models for the deep buried tunnel under 3D principal stress condition are presented, so that the stability analysis of surrounding rock can be conducted in a direct and convenient way. The reliability of the proposed solutions was verified by comparison of the principal stresses obtained by the developed numerical approach and FEM model. From a practical point of view, the proposed approach can also be applied for the determination of ground response curve of the tunnel, which shows a satisfying accuracy compared with the measuring data.

Abstract The process of diffusion-limited cell dehydration is modeled for a planar system by writing the one-dimensional diffusion-equation for a cell with moving, semipermeable boundaries. For the simplifying case of isothermal dehydration with constant diffusivity, an approximate analytical solution is obtained by linearizing the governing partial differential equations. The general problem must be solved numerically. The Forward Time Center Space (FTCS) and Crank-Nicholson differencing schemes are implemented, and evaluated by comparison with the analytical solution. Putative stability criteria for the two algorithms are proposed based on numerical experiments, and the Crank-Nicholson method is shown to be accurate for a mesh with as few as six nodes.

Compared with the traditional meshless manifold method, the CVMMM has higher accuracy in the same distribution of nodes.
