Book Methods of Analysis and Solutions of Crack Problems

Download or read book Methods of Analysis and Solutions of Crack Problems written by George C. Sih and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is weH known that the traditional failure criteria cannot adequately explain failures which occur at a nominal stress level considerably lower than the ultimate strength of the material. The current procedure for predicting the safe loads or safe useful life of a structural member has been evolved around the discipline oflinear fracture mechanics. This approach introduces the concept of a crack extension force which can be used to rank materials in some order of fracture resistance. The idea is to determine the largest crack that a material will tolerate without failure. Laboratory methods for characterizing the fracture toughness of many engineering materials are now available. While these test data are useful for providing some rough guidance in the choice of materials, it is not clear how they could be used in the design of a structure. The understanding of the relationship between laboratory tests and fracture design of structures is, to say the least, deficient. Fracture mechanics is presently at astandstill until the basic problems of scaling from laboratory models to fuH size structures and mixed mode crack propagation are resolved. The answers to these questions require some basic understanding ofthe theory and will not be found by testing more specimens. The current theory of fracture is inadequate for many reasons. First of aH it can only treat idealized problems where the applied load must be directed normal to the crack plane.

Book A Static Problem of External Cracks

Download or read book A Static Problem of External Cracks written by R. P. Srivastav and published by . This book was released on 1974 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of concern here is the distribution of stress in an isotropic elastic medium containing two external cracks. The two-dimensional plane-strain model in the classical theory of elasticity is considered. The boundary value problem is reduced to a pair of dual integral equations with trigonmetric kernels. Closed form expressions are obtained for (a) the stress intensity factor, (b) the normal component of stress on the line of crack and (c) the crack profile. (Author).

Book Mathematical and Computational Analyses of Cracking Formation

Download or read book Mathematical and Computational Analyses of Cracking Formation written by Yoichi Sumi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-06-11 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the pattern formation and the evolution of crack propagation in engineering materials and structures, bridging mathematical analyses of cracks based on singular integral equations, to computational simulation of engineering design. The first two parts of this book focus on elasticity and fracture and provide the basis for discussions on fracture morphology and its numerical simulation, which may lead to a simulation-based fracture control in engineering structures. Several design concepts are discussed for the prevention of fatigue and fracture in engineering structures, including safe-life design, fail-safe design, damage tolerant design. After starting with basic elasticity and fracture theories in parts one and two, this book focuses on the fracture morphology that develops due to the propagation of brittle cracks or fatigue cracks. In part three, the mathematical analysis of a curved crack is precisely described, based on the perturbation method. The stability theory of interactive cracks propagating in brittle solids may help readers to understand the formation of a fractal-like cracking patterns in brittle solids, while the stability theory of crack paths helps to identify the straight versus sharply curved or sometimes wavy crack paths observed in brittle solids. In part four, the numerical simulation method of a system of multiple cracks is introduced by means of the finite element method, which may be used for the better implementation of fracture control in engineering structures. This book is part of a series on “Mathematics for Industry” and will appeal to structural engineers seeking to understand the basic backgrounds of analyses, but also to mathematicians with an interest in how such mathematical solutions are evaluated in industrial applications.

Book Stress Intensity Factor for a Crack Embedded in an Infinite Matrix Under the Assumption of Plane Micropolar Elasticity

Download or read book Stress Intensity Factor for a Crack Embedded in an Infinite Matrix Under the Assumption of Plane Micropolar Elasticity written by Soosan Bahramian and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In last few decades, studies on defining mechanical behaviour of materials with significant microstructure have increased drastically. This is due to the lack of compatibility between the experimental data of mechanical behaviour of such materials and obtained results from classical elasticity theory. Moreover, with growing demand and need of using microstructural materials such as polymers and composites in mechanical, physical, and engineering applications, it has become crucial to have a good insight about their behaviour and how to analyse it. As mentioned before, the classical theory cannot provide suitable formulae to model the behaviour of microstructural materials. Thus, a new theory had to be developed in order to describe such materials. The basis of a new elasticity theory, which considers the microstructure of materials, was formed during the 1950s. This theory is known as Cosserat theory of elasticity or micropolar elasticity. An effective way to solve the problems in Micropolar elasticity is to use the boundary integral method. Nevertheless, this method forces some limitations on the properties of boundaries of considerate domains. To be more specific, this method demands more detail to characterize the boundary. By using this method, boundaries can be defined and presented by a twice differentiable curve. As a result, it cannot be applied on domains with reduced boundary smoothness, or the ones containing cracks or cuts. Hence, there is a need of finding methods to define irregular boundaries. There has been some research in this particular area, however this issue has not been completely addressed. In order to overcome this difficulty of defining irregular boundaries, an advanced mathematical approach can be used. This method includes using the distribution setting in Sobolev spaces to formulate the corresponding boundary value problem. The benefit of using this method is finding the appropriate weak solution in terms of integral potentials, which works perfectly for the aforementioned boundaries. In this work, boundary integral equation method has been used to find the integral potentials which are the exact analytical solutions, for the corresponding boundary value problems. Moreover, the boundary element method has been used to approximate these exact solutions numerically. Then these solutions can be applied in many practical engineering problems. As an illustration of the importance of this method, then a crack in a human bone was modeled and solved using these solutions. The bone assumed to follow plane Cosserat elasticity. The stress intensity factor around this crack was calculated and compared to classical analysis. The results approves the high effect of microstructure of the material in stress distribution around the crack.

Book Micromechanics

Download or read book Micromechanics written by S. Nemat-Nasser and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 708 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive overview is given in this book towards a fundamental understanding of the micromechanics of the overall response and failure modes of advanced materials, such as ceramics and ceramic and other composites. These advanced materials have become the focus of systematic and extensive research in recent times. The book consists of two parts. The first part reviews solids with microdefects such as cavities, cracks, and inclusions, as well as elastic composites. To render the book self-contained, the second part focuses on the fundamentals of continuum mechanics, particularly linear elasticity which forms the basis for the development of small deformation micromechanics. In Part 1, a fundamental and general framework for quantitative, rigorous analysis of the overall response and failure modes of microstructurally heterogeneous solids is systematically developed. These expressions apply to broad classes of materials with inhomogeneities and defects. While for the most part, the general framework is set within linear elasticity, the results directly translate to heterogeneous solids with rate-dependent or rate-independent inelastic constituents. This application is specifically referred to in various chapters. The general exact correlations obtained between the overall properties and the microstructure are then used together with simple models, to develop techniques for direct quantitative evaluation of the overall response which is generally described in terms of instantaneous overall moduli or compliance. The correlations among the corresponding results for a variety of problems are examined in great detail. The bounds as well as the specific results, include new observations and original developments, as well as an in-depth account of the state of the art. Part 2 focuses on Elasticity. The section on variational methods includes some new elements which should prove useful for application to advanced modeling, as well as solutions of composites and related heterogeneous bodies. A brief modern version of elements in vector and tensor algebra is provided which is particularly tailored to provide a background for the rest of this book. The data contained in this volume as Part 1 includes new results on many basic issues in micromechanics, which will be helpful to graduate students and researchers involved with rigorous physically-based modeling of overall properties of heterogeneous solids.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: North-Holland Series in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 25: Three-Dimensional Problems of the Mathematical Theory of Elasticity and Thermoelasticity focuses on the theory of three-dimensional problems, including oscillation theory, boundary value problems, and integral equations. The publication first tackles basic concepts and axiomatization and basic singular solutions. Discussions focus on fundamental solutions of thermoelasticity, fundamental solutions of the couple-stress theory, strain energy and Hooke’s law in the couple-stress theory, and basic equations in terms of stress components. The manuscript then examines uniqueness theorems and singular integrals and integral equations. The book ponders on the potential theory and boundary value problems of elastic equilibrium and steady elastic oscillations. Topics include basic theorems of the oscillation theory, existence of solutions of boundary value problems, integral equations of the boundary value problems, and boundary properties of potential-type integrals. The publication also reviews mixed dynamic problems, couple-stress elasticity, and boundary value problems for media bounded by several surfaces. The text is a dependable source of data for mathematicians and readers interested in three-dimensional problems of the mathematical theory of elasticity and thermoelasticity.
