Elastoplastic modelling of subsurface crack growth in rail/wheel contact problems

Propagation of small subsurface cracks subjected to shear under repeated rolling contact load is studied. An analytical crack model (Dugdale) with plastic strips at the two crack tips is employed. Compressive stresses promoting crack closure and friction between crack faces are considered. The triaxial stress state is used in the yield criterion. A damage criterion is suggested based on experimental LCF data. In a numerical study, critical crack lengths are found below which propagation of an existing crack should be effectively suppressed.     

Uncertainty analysis based on sensitivity applied to angle-ply composite structures

This article describes a finite element-based formulation for the statistical analysis of the response of stochastic structural composite systems whose material properties are described by random fields. A first-order technique is used to obtain the second-order statistics for the structural response considering means and variances of the displacement and stress fields of plate or shell composite structures. Propagation of uncertainties depends on sensitivities taken as measurement of variation effects. The adjoint variable method is used to obtain the sensitivity matrix. This method is appropriated for composite structures due to the large number of random input parameters. Dominant effects on the stochastic characteristics are studied analyzing the influence of different random parameters. In particular, a study of the anisotropy influence on uncertainties propagation of angle-ply composites is carried out based on the proposed approach.

Introduction to geothermal exploration on ascension island, South Atlantic Ocean

The exploration for a geothermal resource on Ascension Island utilized a strategy that initially employed geologic mapping. On the basis of this, subsurface faults were mapped using an aeromagnetic survey. The faults were then explored using electrical resistivity surveys to define areas of potential hydrothermal fluid up-welling. The results of all of these techniques were used to site temperature gradient holes. A deep geothermal exploration well was then drilled in the area with highest heat flow adjacent to a rhyolite-to-trachyte volcanic complex.     

Features of ultrasonic wave propagation to identify defects in composite materials modelled by finite element method

A two-dimensional plane strain finite element model with absorbing boundary condition has been developed to investigate the ultrasonic wave propagation in isotropic and orthotropic media. It is capable of simulating the experimental pulse echo technique to obtain A-scan data, when a short duration pulse is transmitted into a domain with or without a flaw. The flaw can either be a crack or an inclusion of different material such as a Teflon insert or a resin rich zone. After performing FFT on the A-scan data, frequency domain feature analysis is done. The study provides a guideline regarding the suitability of certain harmonics sensitive to certain types of flaw. The simulation shows other important artifacts of wave propagation such as mode conversion and scattering due to the presence of flaws.     

压裂斜井时射孔处雁形裂缝产生及干扰分析

在已射孔的斜井压裂过程中，射孔孔眼处会出现一系列的几乎相互平行的雁形裂缝。这些裂缝的延伸、连接受到地层应力及裂缝本身的影响，情况较为复杂，但它们的延伸和连接对压裂的成功与否至关重要。笔者对裂缝模型进行简化，将复变函数理论与位错理论相结合，并且考虑了裂缝表面有流体压力作用且裂缝之间存在相互干扰的情况下，建立了无限大介质中裂尖应力强度因子的数学模型，利用该模型可对雁型裂缝之间的相互干扰进行力学分析。应用数值方法对所建立的数学模型求解，得到裂尖的应力强度因子及转角，来预测裂缝连接情况。该结果可用来指导压裂井的射孔施工。     

静水压力下混凝土双K断裂参数试验测定

本文主要研究混凝土在机械荷载和水压力的双重作用下，裂缝的起裂、扩展和失稳断裂情况。试验采用楔入劈拉试件，试验时每间隔一定的机械荷载，施加一个循环的一定数值的水压力，直至试件断裂。试验采用“恒定裂缝张开位移”和“恒定荷载”两种加载方式，恒定裂缝张开位移是对水压力作用下的试件进行的定性对比分析，恒定荷载是对固定水压力作用下的试件，通过表面粘贴应变片的方法监测裂缝的起裂和扩展长度。采用混凝土裂缝扩展的双K断裂准则计算了粘聚韧度、失稳韧度和起裂韧度，并与试验测定结果进行了比较。结果表明，随着水压力的逐渐增大，试件的可承受最大荷载逐渐减小，裂缝的起裂提前。
