The applications of water jet cutting (WJC) in coal mine have progressed slowly. In this paper, we analyzed the possibility and reasonableness of WJC application to pressure relief in hard coal seam, simulated the distributive characteristics of stress and energy fields suffered by hard coal roadway wallrock and the internal relationships of the fields to the instability due to WJC (including horizontal radial slot and vertical annular slot) on roadway wallrock. The results showed that: (1) WJC can unload hard coal seam effectively by inducing stress release and energy dissipation in coal mass near its slots; its annular slots also can block or weaken stress and energy transfer in coal mass; (2) the two slots may cause "the beam structure" and "the small pillar skeleton", and "the layered energy reservoir structure", respectively, which lead to the increase in stress concentration and energy accumulation in coal element mass near the slots; (3) the reasonable design and optimization of slots' positions and their combination not only can significantly reduce the scope of stress concentration and energy accumulation, but also destroy coal mass structure on a larger scale to force stress to transfer deeper coal mass.

In this study, theoretical stress field analysis near the crack tip under tension-compression loading was performed. The results of the theoretical stress analysis were compared to the results of Finite Element Method(FEM). From this study, generation of tensile residual stress at crack tip was proved after 1-cycle of tension-compression loading, and the fracture toughness and the fracture load of a structure can be decreased by the residual stress.

The Integrated Force Method (IFM) has been developed in recent years for the analysis of civil, mechanical and aerospace engineering structures. In this method all independent or internal forces are treated as unknown variables which are calculated by simultaneously imposing equations of equilibrium and compatibility conditions. The solution by IFM needs the computation of element equilibrium and flexibility matrices from the assumed displacement, stress-resultant fields and material properties. This paper presents a general purpose code for the automatic generation of element equilibrium and flexibility matrices for plate bending elements using the Integrated Force Method. Kirchhoff and the Mindlin-Reissner plate theories have been employed in the code. Paper illustrates development of element equilibrium and flexibility matrices for the Mindlin-Reissner theory based four node quadrilateral plate bending element using the Integrated Force Method.

A semi-infinite interfacial crack propagated with constant velocity in two bonded anisotropic strips under out-of-plane clamped displacements is analyzed. Using Fourier integral transform the problem is formulated and the Wiener-Hopf equation is derived. By solving this equation the asymptotic stress and displacement fields near the crack tip are obtained, where the results get more general expressions applicable not only to isotropic/orthotropic materials but also to the extent of the anisotropic material having one plane of elastic symmetry for the interfacial crack. The dynamic stress intensity factor is obtained as a closed form, which is decreased as the velocity of crack propagation increases. The critical velocity where the stress intensity factor comes to zero is obtained, which agrees with the lower value between the critical values of parallel crack merged in the material 1 and 2 adjacent to the interface. Using the near tip fields of stresses and displacements, the dynamic energy release rate is also obtained as a form of the stress intensiy factor.

Although the up-to-date(high) technique is developing and automating in many fields, the center of the all fields is closely connected with the human resource. Also, the railway driver is required to have both high technique and high level of mental work. Therefore, this research will grasp the types of the railway driver groups through railway driver's task stress analyze(JCQ and Job Content Questionnaire), and then analyze the human errors which the types can occur. Finally, this research will propose the way to reduce the human errors.

The energy release rates for a dynamically growing crack in orthotropic materials are expressed explicitly in terms of dynamic stress intensity factors. The stress functions suitable for the problem are found and the evaluation of the J-integral for the theoretical singular crack tip fields yields energy release rates. The present results are simpler than the existing ones and can be reduced to the well known solutions in special cases. Examples of extracting stress intensity factors from the finite element solution using the present results are given for the dynamically growing crack problem of orthotropic materials.

In this paper weight function theory is extended to the determination of the stress intensity factors for the mode I in elliptic crack. For the calculation of the fundamental fields Poisson's theorem and Ferrers's method were employed. Fundamental fields are constructed by single layer potentials with surface density of crack harmonic fundamental polynimials. Crack harmonic fundamental polynimials up to order four were given explicitly. As an example of the application of the weight function theory the stress intensity factors along crack tips in nearly penny-shaped elliptic crack are calculated.

A crack with electrically impermeable surfaces in an electrostrictive material subjected to uniform electric loading is analysed. The effect of electric yielding on stress intensity factor is investigated by using a small scale yielding model and a strip yield zone model. Complete forms of electric fields and elastic fields are derived by using complex function theory. The electrical yield zone shapes for two models are different each other. The two models, however, predict similar yield zone sizes under the small scale yielding conditions. It is found that the influence of electric yielding on the stress intensity factor is insensitive to the modeling of the electrical yield zone shape.

Results pertaining to 3D investigations on the effect of the thickness on the stress fields at the crack front are presented. A 3D finite element analysis is performed using a modified single edge-notched tension specimen configuration, with an inclined crack to include mixed mode I-II. A technique to mesh the crack front (3D) with singular finite elements in ANSYS without using third party software is introduced and used in this study. The effect of the specimen thickness is explicitly investigated for six thicknesses ranging from 1 to 32 mm. In addition, three crack inclination angles, including pure Mode-I, are used to study the effect of mixed-mode I-II fracture. An attempt is made to correlate the extent of a particular stress state along the crack front to thickness. In addition, ${\sigma}_{zz}/{\nu}({\sigma}_{xx}+{\sigma}_{yy})$ contours at the crack front are presented as a useful means to analyze the stress state.

Two kinds of 4-node plane stress/strain finite elements are presented in this work. They are derived from the modified Hellinger-Reissner variational principle so as to employ the internal incompatible displacement and independent stress fields, or the incompatible displacement and strain fields. The introduced incompatible functions are selected to satisfy the constant strain condition. The elements are evaluated on several problems of bending and material incompressibility with regular and distorted elements. The results show that the new elements perform excellently in the calculation of deformation and stresses.
