Starting with Hamilton's variational principle, the governing field equations for the steady state response of thin-walled beams under harmonic forces are derived. The formulation captures shear deformation effects due to bending and warping, translational and rotary inertia effects and as well as torsional flexural coupling effects due to the cross section mono-symmetry. The equations of motion consist of four coupled differential equations in the unknown displacement field variables. A general closed form solution is then developed for the coupled system of equations. The solution is subsequently used to develop a family of shape functions which exactly satisfy the homogeneous form of the governing field equations. A super-convergent finite element is then formulated based on the exact shape functions. Key features of the element developed include its ability to (a) isolate the steady state response component of the response to make the solution amenable to fatigue design, (b) capture coupling effects arising as a result of section mono-symmetry, (c) eliminate spatial discretization arising in commonly used finite elements, (d) avoiding shear locking phenomena, and (e) eliminate the need for time discretization. The results based on the present solution are found to be in excellent agreement with those based on finite element solutions at a small fraction of the computational and modelling cost involved.

An experimental investigation was performed under steady flow condition to assess hydrodynamic performance of floating-type monoleaflet polymer valves (MLPV) withdifferent leaflet thickness. The St. Jude Medical valve (SJMV) was also used for comparison test. Pressure drops of MLPVS are larger than those for other types of polymer valves and mechanical valves. Furthermore, the thicker is the leaflet thickness of the polymer valve, the larger are the corresponding pressure drop. The velocity profiles for MLPs reveal a large reversed flow region downward to the valve position. The maximum wall shear stresses of MLPVS at a flow rate of $30{\ell}$/min are in the range 50-130 dyn/$cm^2$, and the corresponding maximum Reynolds shear stresses are in the range of 100-500 dyn/$cm^2$, respectively, which are beyond the allowable limit clinically. In contrast, floating-type monoleaflet polymer valves show better hydrodynamic performance in leakage volume. From the designing point of view, it may be concluded that the optimum thickness of leaflet for better hydrodynamic performance is one of the Important parameters.

The St. Jude Medical valve (SJMV) was also used for comparison tests. Pressure drops of MLPVs are larger than those for other types of polymer valves and mechanical valves. Furthermore, the thicker is the leaflet thickness of a polymer valve, the larger arc the corresponding press drop. The velocity profiles for MLPV reveal a large reversed flow region downward to the valve position. The maximum wall shear stresses of MLPVs at a flow rate of 30 l/min are in the range $54-130\;dyn/cm^2$, and the corresponding maximum. Reynolds shear stresses are in the range of $100-500\;dyn/cm^2$, respectively. Both arc beyond the allowable limit clinically. In contrast, floating-type monoleaflet polymer valves show better hydrodynamic performance in leakage volume. From the designing point of view, it can be concluded that the optimum thickness of leaflet for better hydrodynamic performance is one of the important parameters.

This paper describes a two-step Tikhonov regularization procedure for converting the steady shear data generated by parallel-disk viscometers, in the presence of wall slip, into a shear stress-shear rate function and a wall shear stress-slip velocity functions. If the material under test has a yield stress or a critical wall shear stress below which no slip is observed the method will also provide an estimate of these stresses. Amplification of measurement noise is kept under control by the introduction of two separate regularization parameters and Generalized Cross Validation is used to guide the selection of these parameters. The performance of this procedure is demonstrated by applying it to the parallel disk data of an oil-in-water emulsion, of a foam and of a mayonnaise.

The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow condi- tions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experi- mental measurements were in good agreement lith numerical results except In flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compli- ance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia (ANFH) in end-to-end anastomoses.

The analysis of static and dynamic characteristics of reinforced roadbed materials was performed through model and laboratory tests. The strength characteristic of reinforced roadbed materials such as HMS-25 and soil were investigated through the unconfined axial compression test, the model soil box test and the combined resonant column and torsional shear test. The unconfined axial compression strength of HMS-25 shows a steady increasement in strength due to the chemical hardening reaction between HMS-25 and water. The result of model soil box test reveals that railroad roadbed of HMS-25 is better than that of soil in several aspects, such as, bearing capacity and settlement. The combined resonant column and torsional shear test result indicates that shear modulus of HMS-25 and soil increase with the power of 0.5 to the confining pressure and linear relationship to normalized shear modulus and damping ratio.

A nonlinear numerical analysis of orientation and velocity fields of the full Ericksen-Leslie theory for a nematic liquid crystal under shear flow is given. We obtained for the first time the three-dimensional orientation and two component velocity profiles evolutions for both in- and out-of-shear plane orientation anchorings. Complex evolution routes to steady state were found even for shear aligning nematic. As the Ericksen number increases monotonic evolution of velocity and orientation shifts towards multi-region nucleating director rotation growth with complex secondary flow generations. We found that contrary to the in-shear-plane anchorings like homeotropic or parallel anchorings, binormal anchoring gives rise to substantial non-planar three-dimensional orientation with nonzero secondary flow.

This paper discusses the measurement of tire driving performance for 2 types of tire model. Tire is almost composed of rubber, and this is related with the bearing capacity of tire due to the external force. In this study, an explicit time integration method has been used to simulate steady state rolling along a straight path and over a cleat. And analysis for tire dynamic response rolling over a cleat is importnat to study automobile NVH properties. Besides, the evaluation of contact shear force is perfomed for steady state rolling and braking state. The results show that there are noticeable differences between 205/60R15 and 225/60R15 tire model.

비상용성 고분자는 그 계면의 특성에 의해서 복잡한 유변학적 거동을 갖는데 그러 한 거동을 해석하기 위해서 최근에 제안된 구성방정식을 토대로 소폭 진동 전단 흐름장에서 의 유변학적 물성과 몰폴로지 전개를 예측한 바 있다. Takahashi[2]등은 이런 흐름하에서의 계면은 거의 변하지 않음을 보여주었고 따라서 이경우는 상대적으로 쉬운편이었다. 본연구 에서는 정상전단흐름장하에서의 몰폴로지 전개에 대한 구성방정식을 간단한 형태로 표현함 으로써 실제 산업계에서 이용될수 있도록 하였다. 그러한 해석을 통하여 원래의 모델에서 제시되었던 3개의 실험변수를 2개로 줄일수 있었으며 계면의 특성을 잘 나타내 주는 새로운 변수($textsc{k}$)를 도입하였다. 계면의 특성을 잘 나타내 주는 이새로운 변수를 통하여 그 계면의 영향을 예측할수 있었다. 한편 분산상의 파괴, 변형, 합체 메카니즘을 모델에 제시되었던 변 수값들을 통하여 해석하였고 이를 실험적인 데이터와 비교해 보았다.

In the present steady the flow characteristics of turbulent steady flows were experimentally investigated in the exit region of join stream. The experimental was carry out to measure the velocity profiles of air in a square duct. For the measurement of velocity profiles, a hot-wire anemometer was used. The experimental results shows that the velocity profiles do not change behind the fully developed flow region , which is defined as dimensionless axial direction x/Dh=50. In addition, the gradient of shear stress distribution became stable as the flow reached progress downstream.
