This paper introduces new alternative forms of Green's function, and its derivatives, suitable for the calculations associated with three-dimensional ship-wave problems. Rather than infinite-range integral forms, new finite integral representations of Green's function for harmonic motions are derived for the "single-body" and "double-body" descriptions of the interactive problem. The usefulness of these finite integral descriptions is illustrated by carrying out a computing efficiency comparison with other alternative, but mathematically equivalent, descriptions of the Green's function. The calculations carried out indicate that the proposed forms of the Green function are numerically more efficient than the standard forms without affecting accuracy.

Incompressible Elasticity

The infinite-body three-dimensional Green's function set (for incremental displacement and mean stress) is derived for the incremental deformation of a uniformly strained incompressible, nonlinear elastic body. Particular cases of the developed formulation are the Mooney–Rivlin elasticity and the J 2 -deformation theory of plasticity. These Green's functions are used to develop a boundary integral equation framework, by introducing an ad hoc potential, which paves the way for a boundary element formulation of three-dimensional problems of incremental elasticity. Results are used to investigate the behaviour of a material deformed near the limit of ellipticity and to reveal patterns of shear failure. In fact, within the investigated three-dimensional framework, localized deformations emanating from a perturbation are shown to be organized in conical geometries rather than in planar bands, so that failure is predicted to develop through curved and thin surfaces of intense shearing, as can for instance be observed in the cup–cone rupture of ductile metal bars.

Third Dimension

A general theory of electron diffraction by crystals is developed. The crystals are assumed to be infinitely extended in two dimensions and finite in the third dimension. For the scattering problem by this structure two-dimensionally expanded forms of GREEN’S function and integral equation are at first derived, and combined in single three-dimensional forms. EWALD’S method is applied to sum up the series for GREEN’S function.

Effective Assessment

Major nuclear components have been designed by conservative codes to prevent unanticipated fatigue failure. However, more realistic and effective assessment is necessary in proof of continued operation beyond the design life. In the present paper, three-dimensional stress and fatigue evaluation is carried out for pressurizer employing complex full geometry itself instead of conventional discrete subcomponents. For this purpose, temperature and mechanical stress transfer Green’s functions are derived from finite element analyses and applied to critical locations of pressurizer. In accordance with comparison of resulting stresses obtained from the Green’s function and detailed finite element analysis, suitability of the specific Green’s function is investigated. Finally, prototype of fatigue life assessment results is provided along with relevant ongoing activities.

Wind Measurements

There exists many applications for which wind-velocity is desired over a three-dimensional space. The vector field associated with these wind velocities is known as a “windfield” or “velocity-windfield.” The present work provides a fast method to characterize windfields. The approach uses the free-space Green’s function for potential theory as an inexpensive surrogate model in lieu of either complicated physics-based models or other types of surrogate models, both of which require volumetric discretizations for the three-dimensional case. Using the gradient of the third Green’s identity, the wind-velocity in the interior of a domain is entirely characterized by a surface discretization while still providing a three-dimensional model. The unknown densities on the surface are determined from enforcement of the interior form of the identity at arbitrary points coinciding with wind measurements taken by unmanned aerial vehicles. Numerical results support the feasibility of the method.

New Methods

In harbors affected by ocean swells,cargo handlings are often interrupted and irooring lines are broken as a result of severe ship motionsl). In order to decrease such accidents, the noored ship notions in a harbor basin must be studied. In this paper the ship notions in the harbor basin are investigated by using three dimensional Green's function and close agreement between theoretical and experimental results can be found. New methods to reduce noored ship motion are also proposed. The efficiency of these methods is verified theoretically and experimentally.
