Experimental study on uplift behavior of shallow anchor plates in geogrid-reinforced soil

Geogrid reinforcement can significantly improve the uplift bearing capacity of anchor plates. However, the failure mechanism of anchor plates in reinforced soil and the contribution of geogrids need further investigation. This paper presents an experimental study on the anchor uplift behavior in geogrid-reinforced soil using particle image velocimetry (PIV) and the high-resolution optical frequency domain reflectometry (OFDR). A series of model tests were performed to identify the relationship between the failure mechanism and various factors, such as anchor embedment ratio, number of geogrid layers, and their location. The test results indicate that soil deformation and the uplift resistance of anchor plates are substantially influenced by anchor embedment ratio and location of geogrids, whereas the number of geogrid layers has limited influence. In reinforced soil, increasing the embedment ratio greatly improves the ultimate bearing capacities of anchor plates and affects the interlock between the soil and geogrids. As the embedment depth increases, the failure surfaces gradually change from a vertical slip surface to a bulb-shaped surface that is limited within the soil. The strain monitoring data shows that the deformations of geogrids are symmetrical, and the peak strains of geogrids can characterize the reinforcing effects.     

不同模式超声预处理对莲子蛋白酶解物及其结构的影响

超声波参数中,超声频率是影响蛋白酶解的主要因素。因此,本实验以不同模式超声频率下得到的莲子蛋白酶解物为研究对象,首先对不同模式超声进行优化,以血管紧张素转化酶(angiotensin converting enzyme,ACE)抑制率和水解度为指标,得出了不同模式下的最优频率参数:单频率超声20 kHz、双频率组合20/35 kHz、三频率超声组合20/35/50 kHz。然后采用表面疏水性、氨基酸分析及内源性荧光光谱等表征不同模式的超声预处理对莲子蛋白酶解物及结构特征影响。结果显示:随着超声频率组合增多,表面疏水性越来越大,疏水性氨基酸含量增多,主要是由于超声预处理使蛋白结构展开,使最初被掩埋在蛋白分子内部的疏水基团暴露。通过荧光光谱发现,超声预处理提高了莲子蛋白的荧光强度,且荧光强度顺序为三频双频单频;同时,莲子蛋白酶解物λmax发生轻微的红移现象。上述结果对于莲子蛋白酶解及ACE抑制肽的制备至关重要。     

粉土界面恒刚度循环剪切试验研究

竖向循环荷载作用下桩土界面的作用机理是研究桩土摩擦疲劳的关键。针对循环荷载作用下桩-粉土界面的剪切性能,使用改进的剪切试验装置在恒刚度条件下进行循环剪切试验,研究循环次数、累积位移和法向刚度对其摩擦疲劳性能、循环后单调剪切性能的影响。试验结果表明,粉土在循环剪切过程中,法向应力和剪应力在初始10个循环内随循环数增加快速衰减,随着循环进行,逐渐趋于稳定;单次循环内在剪切位移方向变化时,土体呈现表现出剪缩-剪胀-剪缩交替现象,总体变形呈现剪缩的趋势;循环荷载作用下,粉土界面的法向应力和剪应力随法向刚度增大衰减速率增大,达到稳定的累积循环位移越小;粉土循环后的单调剪切、法向应力恢复的单调剪切的剪应力比小于首次单调剪切试验值,且法向应力恢复的循环后剪切试验的剪胀程度较小,表明循环剪切过程中界面处粉土颗粒棱角破碎,颗粒变得光滑。在对试验数据分析的基础上,提出了与累积位移、法向刚度和初始应力相关的无量纲累积位移,建立了法向应力和界面摩擦角随累积位移的衰减方程。

Generalised multivariable supertwisting algorithm

The purpose of this paper is to present an extension of the generalised supertwisting algorithm (STA) to the multivariable framework. We begin by introducing an algorithm that may be deemed as a linear, quasicontinuous, or discontinuous multivariable system, depending on the functions that define them. For the class represented by such an algorithm we prove the robust, Lyapunov stability of the origin and characterise the perturbations that preserve its stability. In particular, when its vector field is discontinuous or quasicontinuous our algorithm is endowed with finite‐time stability. Due to its resemblance to the scalar case, we denote such finite‐time stable systems as generalised multivariable STA. Furthermore, the class of finite‐time stable systems comprise the currently available versions of STAs. To finalise, by means of simulation examples, we show that our proposed finite‐time stable algorithms are well suited for signals online differentiation and highlight their dynamical traits.     

Two-dimensional electromagneto-thermoelastic coupled problem under fractional order theory of thermoelasticity

The dynamic response of a two-dimensional generalized thermal shock problem is investigated in the context of the fractional order theory of thermoelasticity proposed by Sherief et al. To demonstrate the solution process, a thermoelastic half-space subjected to a thermal shock on its bounding surface is considered in detail. The governing equations for the problem are formulated and then solved by normal mode analysis. The distributions of the considered nondimensional temperature, displacement, and stress are obtained and illustrated graphically. The effect of fractional order parameter on the variations of the considered variables is investigated, and the results show that the fractional order parameter has significant influence on the variations of the considered variables.     

Thermoelastic analysis of laminated composite and sandwich shells considering the effects of transverse shear and normal deformations

Abstract

In the present study, thermoelastic analysis of laminated composite and sandwich shells (cylindrical/spherical) is presented using fifth-order shear and normal deformation theory. The significant characteristic of the present theory is that it includes the effects of both transverse shear and normal deformations. The mathematical formulation uses the principle of virtual work to derive the variationally consistent governing equations and traction free boundary conditions. To obtain the static solution, these governing equations are solved by employing Navier’s solution technique. The shell is subjected to a mechanical/thermal load sinusoidally distributed over the top surface of the shell. The thermal load linearly varies across the thickness of the shell. The present results are compared with other higher-order models and 3D elasticity solution wherever possible. Thermal stresses presented in this study will act as a benchmark for the future work.     

水平井电缆牵引器滚轮与管壁压力的测量

水平井电缆牵引器滚轮与管壁之间的压力是进行牵引器结构设计和作业控制的一项关键参数。如果压力施加不当，滚轮将出现打滑或堵转。由于套管细长，滚轮与管壁的接触位置又不断在发生变化，因此压力测量的难度很大。笔者提出在套管上开窗口并用球头立柱支撑压板，使立柱与压板始终处于单面点接触状态，确保压板发生变形时立柱只受到压力。为防止压板从窗口掉入套管，将压板的两个侧立面加工为楔形，与窗口侧立面具有相同的锥度。研究介绍了测力系统的设计和工作原理，提出了有无预紧力2种情况下支撑立柱的压力计算模型，建立了测试系统，并对牵引器在套管内爬行时的压力进行了测量。根据得到的16根支撑立柱的应变值，计算和分析了压板和立柱上的压力分配。
