Incorporation of linear multipoint constraints in domain-decomposition-based iterative solvers - Part II: Blending FETI-DP and mortar methods and assembling floating substructures

Two approaches are presented for extending the FETI-DP domain-decomposition-based iterative method to the solution of problems with Linear Multipoint Constraints (LMPCs). Both cases of arbitrary LMPCs and LMPCs generated by the mortar method for enforcing a weak continuity of the solution across non-matching finite element interfaces are considered. In the first approach, the LMPCs are addressed during the preconditioning step but enforced only at convergence. In the second approach, the LMPCs are enforced at each iteration through the solution of an auxiliary coarse problem. Both extended FETI-DP solvers are benchmarked on a parallel processor for a wide range of constrained structural mechanics problems. The obtained results reveal that both solvers are numerically scalable and complement each other from the memory and CPU performance viewpoints.     

New decentralized control technique based on substructure and LQG approaches

Decentralized control is more suitable for structural control of large-scale structures. In this paper, a new decentralized control technique is proposed based on the linear quadratic Gaussian (LQG) and substructure approaches. A large-scale structure is divided into a set of smaller substructures. Each substructure is controlled by its own local controller with interaction forces at substructural interfaces, which are considered as “unknown external inputs” to the substructure concerned. An algorithm of recursive least squares estimation for the unknown excitation is proposed. A numerical example of the decentralized control of a tall building is studied to illustrate the new proposed algorithm. Simulation results show that the proposed decentralized control provides satisfactory control performance when comparing with the conventional centralized LQG control algorithm and is viable for the future structural control of large-scale structures.     

钢筋混凝土梁-板子结构抗连续性倒塌性能研究

该文通过试验与有限元模拟研究边柱失效工况下钢筋混凝土（RC）梁-板子结构抗连续倒塌性能。在实验室通过对RC梁-板子结构缩尺模型开展pushdown试验研究梁-板子结构的破坏模态,并进一步讨论了梁-板子结构在倒塌过程中的荷载传递机理和抗力机制。试验结果表明：RC梁-板子结构在倒数第二个边柱失效下可以形成有效的梁机制、压拱机制、悬链线机制以及拉膜机制抵抗倒塌。在小变形阶段,楼板在负弯矩区作为梁翼缘可以显著提升RC梁抗弯承载力（T型梁作用）;在大变形阶段,楼板发展拉膜作用早于梁发展悬链线机制。此外,根据有限元软件LSDYNA开展的数值分析结果表明：楼板提升RC框架屈服承载力与极限承载力分别高达65%和61%。

Large strains associated with sliding contact of metals

 Dislocation studies, especially at large strains, are important for understanding materials aspects of tribological processes. Metallographic evidence shows that sliding causes very large plastic strains and strain gradients adjacent to the interface between the interacting materials. Dislocation densities increase, perhaps achieving saturation values. The resulting microstructures, including LEDS, are typical of those produced by other ways of producing large strains. Friction can be related to the dissipative processes associated with plastic deformation. Also, the material near the surface becomes unstable to local shear, allowing transfer of pieces of deformed material to the counterface. The transfer material is further deformed and mixed with the counterface material and/or environmental components to produce very fine grained structures, often in the nanocrystal range. Loose wear debris particles are commonly derived from this mixed material, not directly from the base material. Received: 22 September 1997 / Accepted: 16 December 1997
