The objective of this paper is to study the deformation in a homogeneous isotropic thermoelastic solid using modified couple stress theory subjected to ramp-type thermal source with two temperature. The advantage of this theory is the involvement of only one material length scale parameter which can determine the size effects. Laplace and Fourier transform technique is applied to obtain the solutions of the governing equations. The components of displacement, conductive temperature, stress components and couple stress are obtained in the transformed domain. A numerical inversion technique has been used to obtain the solutions in the physical domain. The effect of two temperature is depicted graphically on the resulted quantities. Numerical results show that the proposed model can capture the size effects of microstructures.

A multi-layered orthotropic material with a center crack is subjected to an anti-plane shear loading. The problem is formulated as a mixed boundary value problem by using the Fourier integral transform method. This gives a Fredholm integral equation of the second kind. The integral equation is solved numerically and anti-plane shear stress intensity factors are analyzed in terms of the material orthotropy for each layer, number of layers, crack length to layer thickness and the order of the loading polynomial. Also, the case of monolithic and hybrid composites are investigated in terms of the local fiber volume fraction and the global fiber volume fraction.

This paper presents a unique pressure sensor design for environmental applications. The design uses a new geometry for a multi bossed beam-membrane structure with a SOI (silicon-on-insulator) substrate and a mechanical transducer. The Intellisuite MEMS CAD design tool was used to build and analyze the structure with FEM (finite element modeling). The working principle of the multi bossed beam structure is explained. FEM calculations show that a sensing diaphragm with Mises stress can provide superior linear response compared to a stress-free diaphragm. These simulation results are validated by comparing the estimated deflection response. The results show that, the sensitivity is enhanced by using both the novel geometry and the SOI substrate.

This study is concerned with computerized multi-level substructuring methods and stress analysis of coil springs. The purpose of substructuring methods is to reduce computing time and capacity of computer memory by multiple level reduction of the degrees of freedom in large size problems which are modeled by three dimensional continuum finite elements. In this paper, a super element has been developed for stress analysis of coil springs. The spring super element developed has been examined with tension and torsion simulation of cylindrical bars for demonstrating its validity. The result shows that the super element enhances the computing efficiency while it does not affect the accuracy of the results and it is ready for application to the coil spring analysis.

The multi-resonant converter minimizes a parasitic oscillation by using the resonant tank circuit absorbed parasitic reactance existing in a converter circuit. So it is possible that the converter operated at a high frequency has a high efficiency because the losses are reduced. However, the resonant voltage stress across a switch is four or five times a input voltage. This high voltage stress increases the conduction loss. In this paper, we proposed the AT flyback multi-resonant converter. The proposed converter can reduce the voltage stress to two or three times by using two series input capacitors. The operational principle of the proposed converter was verified through the experimental converter.

The effect of nanoparticle volume fraction on the elastic properties of a polymer-based nanocomposite was experimentally investigated and the obtained results were compared with various existing theoretical models. The nanocomposite was consisted of high density polyethylene (HDPE) as polymeric matrix and 0, 0.5, 1 and 1.5 wt.% multi walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) prepared using twin screw extruder and injection molding technique. Nanocomposite samples were molded in injection apparatus according to ASTM-D638 standard. Therefore, in addition to morphological investigations of the samples, tensile tests at ambient temperature were performed on each sample and stress-strain plots, elastic moduli, Poisson's ratios, and strain energies of volume units were extracted from primary strain test results. Tensile test results demonstrated that 1 wt.% nanoparticles presented the best reinforcement behavior in HDPE-MWCNT nanocomposites. Due to the agglomeration of nanoparticles at above 1 wt.%, Young's modulus, yielding stress, fracture stress, and fracture energy were decreased and Poisson's ratio and failure strain were increased.

Through-the-thickness stress distribution in a tubular member has a profound effect on the fatigue behavior of tubular joints commonly found in steel offshore structures. This stress distribution can be characterized by the degree of bending (DoB). Although multi-planar joints are an intrinsic feature of offshore tubular structures and the multi-planarity usually has a considerable effect on the DoB values at the brace-to-chord intersection, few investigations have been reported on the DoB in multi-planar joints due to the complexity of the problem and high cost involved. In the present research, data extracted from the stress analysis of 243 finite element (FE) models, verified based on available parametric equations, was used to study the effects of geometrical parameters on the DoB values in two-planar tubular DYT-joints. Parametric FE study was followed by a set of nonlinear regression analyses to develop six new DoB parametric equations for the fatigue analysis and design of axially loaded two-planar DYT-joints.

There are many joint fissures distributed in the engineering rock mass. In the process of geological history, the underground rock mass undergoes strong geological processes, and undergoes complex geological processes such as fracture breeding, expansion, recementation, and re-expansion. In this paper, the damage-stick-slip process (DSSP), an analysis model used for rock mass failure slip, was established to examine the master control and time-dependent mechanical properties of the new and primary fractures of a multi-fractured rock mass under the action of stress loading. The experimental system for the recemented multi-fractured rock mass was developed to validate the above theory. First, a rock mass failure test was conducted. Then, the failure stress state was kept constant, and the fractured rock mass was grouted and cemented. A secondary loading was applied until the grouted mass reached the intended strength to investigate the bearing capacity of the recemented multi-fractured rock mass, and an acoustic emission (AE) system was used to monitor AE events and the update of damage energy. The results show that the initial fracture angle and direction had a significant effect on the re-failure process of the cement rock mass; Compared with the monitoring results of the acoustic emission (AE) measurements, the master control surface, key blocks and other control factors in the multi-fractured rock mass were obtained; The triangular shaped block in rock mass plays an important role in the stress and displacement change of multi-fracture rock mass and the long fissure and the fractures with close fracture tip are easier to activate, and the position where the longer fractures intersect with the smaller fractures is easier to generate new fractures. The results are of great significance to a multi-block structure, which affects the safety of underground coal mining.

복합재료가 항공기 구조물 및 기계부품 등에 폭 넓게 적용됨에 따라, 복합재료 구조물에서 가장 취약한 복합재료 체결부의 설계는 매우 중요한 연구 분야로 대두되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 기계적으로 체결이 된 단일 및 다중 핀 하중을 받는 복합재료 평판에서 응력분포에 대한 해석적인 연구를 수행하였다. 또한, 기계적체결부인 핀과 구멍간에서 접촉 문제를 다루기 위하여 접촉응력해석을 이용한 유한요소 모델이 사용되었으며, 응력분포를 정량적으로 비교하기 위하여 무차원화한 응력집중계수를 이용하였다. 단일 핀 하중을 받는 경우에 대하여 적층순서, 원공의 지름에 대한 평판 폭의 비 (W/D ratio), 원공의 지름에 대한 끝단에서 원공까지의 길이의 비 (En ratio), 마찰계수, 와셔의 조임력 등에 대한 영향을 알아보았으며, 다중 핀 하중을 받는 경우에 응력집중계수를 이용하여 핀의 개수, 피치, 열의 개수, 열 간격 및 원공의 배치형상의 영향에 대하여 알아보았다. 단일 핀 하중을 받는 경우에 대한 결과로부터, DBLT (Double-Bias-Longitudinal Transverse) 복합재료 평판에서 응력이 가장 민감하게 나타나는 것을 알 수 있었고, 원공의 지름에 대한 평판 폭의 비와끝단에서 원공까지의 길이의 비에 따른 응력의 변화가 민감하게 나타나는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 다중핀 하중을 받는 경우에 대한 응력해석의 결과로부터, 원공이 2열로 배치된 복합재료 평판에서 응력집중현상이 가장 적게 일어나는 것을 확인하였다. 이러한 해석을 통하여, 체결부에서 나타나는 응력분포로부터 복합재료 평판에서의 파손형태를 예측할 수 있다.
