There were errors in numerical analysis of stability for goaf, if it was analyzed as regular 3D mined-out area and the influence of coupling stress-seepage-disturbance was not considered adequately. Taking a lead zinc mine as the background, the model was built by the coupling of Surpac and Midas-Gts based on the goaf model precisely measured by CMS.According to seepage stress fundamental equations based on the equivalent continuum mechanical and the theory about equivalent load of dynamic disturbance in deep-hole blasting, the stability of mined-out area under multi-field coupling of stress-seepage-dynamic disturbance was numerically analyzed. The results show that it is more consistent between the numerical analysis model based on the real model of irregular 3D shape goaf and the real situation, which could faithfully reappear the change rule of stress–strain about the surrounding rock under synthetic action of blasting dynamic loading and the seepage pressure. The mined-out area multi-field coupling formed by blasting excavation is stable. Based on combination of the advantages of the CMS,Surpac and Midas-Gts, and fully consideration of the effects of multi-field coupling, the accurate and effective way could be provided for numerical analysis of stability for mined-out area.展开更多

These engineering disturbances are important factors that would alter the natural evolutionary processes or change the multi-field interactions in the rock masses from their initial equilibrium states. The concept of generalized multi-field couplings was proposed by placing particular emphasis on the role of engineering disturbances in traditional multi-field couplings in rock masses. A mathematical model was then developed, in which the effects of engineering disturbances on the coupling-processes were described with changes in boundary conditions and evolutions in thermo-hydro-mechanical （THM） properties of the rocks. A parameter, d, which is similar to damage variables but has a broader physical meaning, was conceptually introduced to represent the degree of engineering disturbances and the couplings among the material properties. The effects of blasting excavation, bolting and grouting in rock engineering were illustrated with various field observations or theoretical results, on which the degree of disturbances and the variations in elastic moduli and permeabilities were particularly focused. The influences of excavation and groundwater drainage on the seepage flow and stability of the slopes were demonstrated with numerical simulations. The proposed approach was further employed to investigate the coupled hydro-mechanical responses of a high rock slope to excavation, bolting and impounding of the reservoir in the dam left abutment of Jinping I hydropower station. The impacts of engineering disturbances on the deformation and stability of the slope during construction and operation were demonstrated.展开更多

This method was used to derive a series of exact three dimensional solutions which should be of great theoretical significance because most of them usually cannot be derived by other methods such as the transform method and the trial-and-error method. Further, many solutions are obtained in terms of elementary functions that enable us to treat more complicated problems easily. It is pointed out here that the method is usually only applicable to media characterizing transverse isotropy, from which, however, the results for the isotropic case can be readily obtained.展开更多

All governing equations and boundary conditions for the ferromagnetic shell are obtained from the variational manipulations on the magnetic scalar potential, temperature and the elastic displacement related to the total energy functional. The multi-field couplings and geometrical nonlinearity of the ferromagnetic thin shell are taken into account in the modeling. The general modeling can be further deduced to existing models of the magneto-elasticity and the thermo-elasticity of a ferromagnetic shell and magneto-thermo-elasticity of a ferromagnetic plate, which are coincident with the ones in literature.展开更多

These engineering disturbances are important factors that would alter the natural evolutionary processes or change the multi-field interactions in the rock masses from their initial equilibrium states. The concept of generalized multi-field couplings was proposed by placing particular emphasis on the role of engineering disturbances in traditional multi-field couplings in rock masses. A mathematical model was then developed, in which the effects of engineering disturbances on the coupling-processes were described with changes in boundary conditions and evolutions in thermo-hydro-mechanical （THM） properties of the rocks. A parameter, d, which is similar to damage variables but has a broader physical meaning, was conceptually introduced to represent the degree of engineering disturbances and the couplings among the material properties. The effects of blasting excavation, bolting and grouting in rock engineering were illustrated with various field observations or theoretical results, on which the degree of disturbances and the variations in elastic moduli and permeabilities were particularly focused. The influences of excavation and groundwater drainage on the seepage flow and stability of the slopes were demonstrated with numerical simulations. The proposed approach was further employed to investigate the coupled hydro-mechanical responses of a high rock slope to excavation, bolting and impounding of the reservoir in the dam left abutment of Jinping I hydropower station. The impacts of engineering disturbances on the deformation and stability of the slope during construction and operation were demonstrated.

文摘In order to study the multi-field coupling mechanical behavior of the simply-supported conductive rectangular thin plate under the condition of an externally lateral strong impulsive magnetic field, that is the dynamic buckling phenomenon of the thin plates in the effect of the magnetic volume forces produced by the interaction between the eddy current and the magnetic fields, a FEM analysis program is developed to characterize the phenomena of magnetoelastic buckling and instability of the plates. The critical values of magnetic field for the three different initial vibrating modes are obtained, with a detailed discussion made on the effects of the lengththickness ratio a/h of the plate and the length-width ratio a/b as well as the impulse parameter on the critical value BOcr of the applied magnetic field.

文摘Sandwiched functionally-graded piezoelectric semiconductor(FGPS)plates possess high strength and excellent piezoelectric and semiconductor properties,and have significant potential applications in micro-electro-mechanical systems.The multi-field coupling and free vibration of a sandwiched FGPS plate are studied,and the governing equation and natural frequency are derived with the consideration of electron movement.The material properties in the functionally-graded layers are assumed to vary smoothly,and the first-order shear deformation theory is introduced to derive the multi-field coupling in the plate.The total strain energy of the plate is obtained,and the governing equations are presented by using Hamilton’s principle.By introducing the boundary conditions,the coupling physical fields are solved.In numerical examples,the natural frequencies of sandwiched FGPS plates under different geometrical and physical parameters are discussed.It is found that the initial electron density can be used to modulate the natural frequencies and vibrational displacement of sandwiched FGPS plates in the case of nano-size.The effects of the material properties of FGPS layers on the natural frequencies are also examined in detail.

文摘We propose a multi-field implicit finite element method for analyzing the electromechanical behavior of dielectric elastomers. This method is based on a four-field variational principle, which includes displacement and electric potential for the electromechanical coupling analysis, and additional independent fields to address the incompressible constraint of the hyperelastic material. Linearization of the variational form and finite element discretization are adopted for the numerical implementation. A general FEM program framework is devel- oped using C＋＋ based on the open-source finite element library deal.II to implement this proposed algorithm. Numerical examples demonstrate the accuracy, convergence properties, mesh-independence properties, and scalability of this method. We also use the method for eigenvalue analysis of a dielectric elastomer actuator subject to electromechanical loadings. Our finite element implementation is available as an online supplementary material.
文摘This study presents a comprehensive mechanical analysis of P110S oil tubing subjected to thermal and chemical coupling effects,with particular attention to the presence of rectangular corrosion defects.Drawing on the material’s stress–strain constitutive behavior,thermal expansion coefficient,thermal conductivity,and electrochemical test data,the research incorporates geometric nonlinearities arising from large deformations induced by corrosion.A detailed three-dimensional finite element(FE)model of the corroded P110S tubing is developed to simulate its response under complex loading conditions.The proposed model is rigorously validated through full-scale burst experiments and analytical calculations based on theoretical formulations.Building upon this validation,the Extended Finite Element Method(XFEM)and a failure criterion grounded in damage evolution mechanics are applied to investigate the mechanical behavior of the tubing under the coupled influences of temperature,stress,and chemical corrosion.Special emphasis is placed on the role of rectangular corrosion features in determining failure mechanisms.To further elucidate the impact of multiple interacting parameters,a sensitivity analysis is performed by integrating grey correlation theory with simulation outcomes.Based on these findings,the study systematically explores the elastic–plastic deformation process,crack initiation and propagation behavior,and the burst failure response of tubing specimens with varying axial lengths and depths of corrosion.The proposed methodology provides a robust predictive framework for petroleum engineers to evaluate fracture pressure,diagnose failure modes,assess operational risks,and optimize production strategies.

文摘In this study,a series of triaxial tests are conducted on sandstone specimens to investigate the evolution of their mechanics and permeability characteristics under the combined action of immersion corrosion and seepage of different chemical solutions.It is observed that with the increase of confining pressure,the peak stress,dilatancy stress,dilatancy stress ratio,peak strain,and elastic modulus of the sandstone increase while the Poisson ratio decreases and less secondary cracks are produced when the samples are broken.The pore pressure and confining pressure have opposite influences on the mechanical properties.With the increase of the applied axial stress,three stages are clearly identified in the permeability evolution curves:initial compaction stage,linear elasticity stage and plastic deformation stage.The permeability reaches the maximum value when the highest volumetric dilatancy is obtained.In addition,the hydrochemical action of salt solution with pH=7 and 4 has an obvious deteriorating effect on the mechanical properties and induces the increase of permeability.The obtained results will be useful in engineering to understand the mechanical and seepage properties of sandstone under the coupled chemical-seepage-stress multiple fields.

文摘Permafrost regions of Qilian Mountains in China are rich in gas hydrate resources.Once greenhouse gases in deep frozen layer are released into the atmosphere during hydrate mining,a series of negative consequences occur.This study aims to evaluate the impact of hydrate thermal exploitation on regional permafrost and carbon budgets based on a multi-physical field coupling simulation.The results indicate that the permeability of the frozen soil is anisotropic,and the low permeability frozen layer can seal the methane gas in the natural state.Heat injection mining of hydrates causes the continuous melting of permafrost and the escape of methane gas,which transforms the regional permafrost from a carbon sink to a carbon source.A higher injection temperature concentrates the heat and causes uneven melting of the upper frozen layer,which provides a dominant channel for methane gas and results in increased methane emissions.However,dense heat injection wells cause more uniform melting of the lower permafrost layer,and the melting zone does not extend to the upper low permeability formation,which cannot provide advantageous channels for methane gas.Therefore,a reasonable and dense number of heat injection wells can reduce the risk of greenhouse gas emissions during hydrate exploitation.

文摘The fault caused by a pantograph-catenary arc is the main factor that threatens the stability of high-speed railway energy transmission.Pantograph-catenary arc vertical drift is more severe than the case under normal pressure,as it is easy to develop the rigid busbar,which may lead to the flashover occurring around the support insulators.We establish a pantograph-catenary arc experiment and diagnosis platform to simulate low pressure and strong airflow environment.Meanwhile,the variation law of arc drift height with time under different air pressures and airflow velocities is analyzed.Moreover,arc drift characteristics and influencing factors are explored.The physical process of the arc column drifting to the rigid busbar with the jumping mechanism of the arc root on the rigid busbar is summarized.In order to further explore the mechanism of the above physical process,a multi-field stress coupling model is built,as the multi-stress variation law of arc is quantitatively evaluated.The dynamic action mechanism of multi-field stress on arc drifting characteristics is explored,as the physical mechanism of arc drifting under low pressure is theoretically explained.The research results provide theoretical support for arc suppression in high-altitude areas.

文摘We propose a data-driven physics-informed neural networks(PINNs)via task-decomposition(DD-PINNs-TD)for modeling nonlinear thermal-deformation-polarization-carrier(TDPC)coupling mechanical behaviors of piezoelectric semiconductors(PSs).By embedding three-dimensional(3D),plate,and beam equations of PS structures into the constraints of the DD-PINNsTD framework,respectively,we develop three representative PINNs that exhibit significant advantages in computational efficiency and accuracy compared to traditional PINNs.Using the proposed DD-PINNs-TD models,we investigate the TDPC coupling responses of PS structures under different loadings.Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed models exhibit accuracy and stability of these models in predicting the nonlinear multi-field coupling mechanical behaviors of PSs.Notably,the plate and beam-theory-based DD-PINNs-TD models achieve superior computational efficiency relative to their 3Dequation-based counterparts.This study establishes a theoretical foundation for analyzing nonlinear multi-field coupling responses in PS stru ctures and has significant practical value in engineering applications.

文摘Tailoring grain size can improve the strength of polycrystals by regulating the proportion of grains to grain boundaries and the interaction area.As the grain size decreases to the nanoscale,the deformation mechanism in polycrystals shifts from being primarily mediated by dislocations to deformation occurring within the grains and grain boundaries.However,the mechanism responsible for fine-grain strengthening in ferroelectric materials remains unclear,primarily due to the complex multi-field coupling effect arising from spontaneous polarization.Through molecular dynamics simulations,we investigate the strengthening mechanism of barium titanate(BaTiO3),with extremely fine-grain sizes.This material exhibits an inverse Hall–Petch relationship between grain size and strength,rooting in the inhomogeneous concentration of atomic strain and grain rotation.Furthermore,we present a theoretical model to predict the transition from the inverse Hall–Petch stage to the Hall–Petch stage based on strength variations with size,which aligns well with the simulation results.It has been found that the piezoelectric properties of the BaTiO3 are affected by polarization domain switching at various grain sizes.This study enhances our understanding of the atomic-scale mechanisms that contribute to the performance evolution of fine-grain nano-ferroelectric materials.It also provides valuable insights into the design of extremely small-scale ferroelectric components.

文摘This paper presents an overview of the recent progress of potential theory method in the analysis of mixed boundary value problems mainly stemming from three-dimensional crack or contact problems of multi-field coupled media. This method was used to derive a series of exact three dimensional solutions which should be of great theoretical significance because most of them usually cannot be derived by other methods such as the transform method and the trial-and-error method. Further, many solutions are obtained in terms of elementary functions that enable us to treat more complicated problems easily. It is pointed out here that the method is usually only applicable to media characterizing transverse isotropy, from which, however, the results for the isotropic case can be readily obtained.

文摘Based on the generalized variational principle of magneto-thermo-elasticity of the ferromagnetic elastic medium, a nonlinear coupling theoretical modeling for a ferromagnetic thin shell is developed. All governing equations and boundary conditions for the ferromagnetic shell are obtained from the variational manipulations on the magnetic scalar potential, temperature and the elastic displacement related to the total energy functional. The multi-field couplings and geometrical nonlinearity of the ferromagnetic thin shell are taken into account in the modeling. The general modeling can be further deduced to existing models of the magneto-elasticity and the thermo-elasticity of a ferromagnetic shell and magneto-thermo-elasticity of a ferromagnetic plate, which are coincident with the ones in literature.

文摘In this paper,to better reveal the surface effect and the screening effect as well as the nonlinear multi-field coupling characteristic of the multifunctional piezoelectric semiconductor(PS)nanodevice,and to further improve its working performance,a magneto-mechanical-thermo coupling theoretical model is theoretically established for the extensional analysis of a three-layered magneto-electro-semiconductor coupling laminated nanoplate with the surface effect.Next,by using the current theoretical model,some numerical analyses and discussion about the surface effect,the corresponding critical thickness of the nanoplate,and the distributions of the physical fields(including the electron concentration perturbation,the electric potential,the electric field,the average electric displacement,the effective polarization charge density,and the total charge density)under different initial state electron concentrations,as well as their active manipulation via some external magnetic field,pre-stress,and temperature stimuli,are performed.Utilizing the nonlinear multi-field coupling effect induced by inevitable external stimuli in the device operating environment,this paper not only provides theoretical support for understanding the size-dependent tuning/controlling of carrier transport as well as its screening effect,but also assists the design of a series of multiferroic PS nanodevices.
