To quantify particle-matrix interactions, we present a mechanics model describing the energy functional of planar magnetic composites. Through the Fourier series, the analytical solutions for stress distribution and interfacial peeling length of a single particle-polymer unit are derived with the Rayleigh-Ritz method under uniaxial tension. The calculated results of stress fields without the magnetic field agree well with those of the finite element method. The effects of external magnetic field strength and particle content on the stress distribution and peeling length are fully explored, and the enhanced analytical outcomes are obtained through numerical prediction.These insights can be used to validate the reliability of engineering designs, including adaptive structures, micro-electro-mechanical sensors, and soft robotic systems.展开更多

Two types of polycrystalline CMT feed ingots synthesized in a traditional rocking furnace and vertical Bridgman(VB) furnace were adopted in THM growth, and the effects of the polycrystalline feed on the growth interface were revealed. The morphology of the growth interface of CMT crystal(CMT2) grown from the feed by vertical Bridgman was smoother with lower curvature compared with that of CMT crystal(CMT1) from the feed by rocking furnace. The radial Mn composition and Te inclusion distribution of the CMT wafers were analyzed and correlated to the growth interface. The Mn segregation along the radial direction and Te inclusion density of CMT2 were lower than those of CMT1. The VB method synthesized polycrystalline feed could improve the growth interface morphology, which is beneficial for decreasing the Te inclusions and Mn segregation in CMT wafers.展开更多

The soilroot interface mechanical properties can be obtained through the pullout force and root slippage curve(F-S curve). About 120 Pinus tabulaeformis single roots whose diameters ranged from 1 mm to 10 mm divided into 6 groups based on different root embedment length(50 mm, 100 mm and 150 mm) and different load velocity(10 mm·min^(-1), 50 mm·min^(-1), 100 mm·min^(-1) and 300 mm·min^(-1)) were investigated using the pullout method. This study aims to explore the mechanical properties of the soil-root interface in the real conditions using the pullout test method. The results showed two kinds of pullout test failure modes during the experimental process: breakage failure and pullout failure. The results showed that the roots were easier to be broken when the root diameter was smaller or the loading speed was larger. The relationship between the maximum anchorage force and root diameter was linear and the linearly dependent coefficient(R^2) was larger than 0.85. The anchorage force increased with the root embedment length. An increase of 10%^(-1)5% for the maximumanchorage force was found when load speed increased from 10 to 300 mm.min^(-1). The mean peak slippage of the root was from 13.81 to 35.79 mm when the load velocity varied from 10 to 300 mm.min^(-1). The study will be helpful for the design of slopes reinforced by vegetation and in predicting risk of uprooting of trees, and will have practical benefits for understanding the mechanism of landslide.展开更多

The present reached, in spite of the enlarged computational discontinuous problems are tested to verify the present method. The results show reduce the error of the spectral IIM, especially when more collocation points are method is t:avorable for the reason that the same level of the accuracy can be domain.展开更多

Comput. Phys. 147, 60) has been extended for elliptic and parabolic problems with interior boundaries or interfaces of discontinuities of material properties or solutions. Second order accuracy is achieved in space and time for both stationary and moving interface problems. The method is conservative for elliptic and parabolic problems with fixed interfaces. Based on this method, a front tracking algorithm for the Stefan problem has been developed. The accuracy of the method is measured through comparison with exact solution to a two-dimensional Stefan problem. The algorithm has been used for the study of melting and solidification problems.展开更多

文摘It is important to quantify the effect of the root diameter, the embedment length of the root and load speed on the soil-root interface mechanical properties for studying the root anchorage. The soilroot interface mechanical properties can be obtained through the pullout force and root slippage curve(F-S curve). About 120 Pinus tabulaeformis single roots whose diameters ranged from 1 mm to 10 mm divided into 6 groups based on different root embedment length(50 mm, 100 mm and 150 mm) and different load velocity(10 mm·min^(-1), 50 mm·min^(-1), 100 mm·min^(-1) and 300 mm·min^(-1)) were investigated using the pullout method. This study aims to explore the mechanical properties of the soil-root interface in the real conditions using the pullout test method. The results showed two kinds of pullout test failure modes during the experimental process: breakage failure and pullout failure. The results showed that the roots were easier to be broken when the root diameter was smaller or the loading speed was larger. The relationship between the maximum anchorage force and root diameter was linear and the linearly dependent coefficient(R^2) was larger than 0.85. The anchorage force increased with the root embedment length. An increase of 10%^(-1)5% for the maximumanchorage force was found when load speed increased from 10 to 300 mm.min^(-1). The mean peak slippage of the root was from 13.81 to 35.79 mm when the load velocity varied from 10 to 300 mm.min^(-1). The study will be helpful for the design of slopes reinforced by vegetation and in predicting risk of uprooting of trees, and will have practical benefits for understanding the mechanism of landslide.

文摘Two modeling methods of the root insert for wind turbine blade are presented,i.e.,the local mesh optimization method(LMOM)and the global modeling method(GMM).Based on the optimized mesh of the local model for the metal contact interface,LMOM is proposed to analyze the load path and stress distribution characteristics,while GMM is used to calculate and analyze the stress distribution characteristics of the resin layer established between the bushing and composite layers of root insert.To validate the GMM,a tension test is carried out.The result successfully shows that the shear strain expresses a similar strain distribution tendency with the GMM′s results.
文摘In this paper, we consider the mixed Navier-Stokes/Darcy model with BeaversJoseph interface conditions. Based on two-grid discretizations, a local and parallel finite element algorithm for this mixed model is proposed and analyzed. Optimal errors are obtained and numerical experiments are presented to show the efficiency and effectiveness of the local and parallel finite element algorithm.

文摘This paper presents the extension of the global description approach of a discontinuous function, which is proposed in the previous paper, to a spectral domain decomposition method. This multi-domain spectral immersed interlace method(IIM) divides the whole computation domain into the smooth and discontinuous parts. Fewer points on the smooth domains are used via taking advantage of the high accuracy property of the spectral method, but more points on the discontinuous domains are employed to enhance the resolution of the calculation. Two that the domain decomposition technique can placed around the discontinuity. The present reached, in spite of the enlarged computational discontinuous problems are tested to verify the present method. The results show reduce the error of the spectral IIM, especially when more collocation points are method is t:avorable for the reason that the same level of the accuracy can be domain.

文摘In this paper,a class of new immersed interface finite element methods (IIFEM) is developed to solve elasticity interface problems with homogeneous and non-homogeneous jump conditions in two dimensions.Simple non-body-fitted meshes are used.For homogeneous jump conditions,both non-conforming and conforming basis functions are constructed in such a way that they satisfy the natural jump conditions. For non-homogeneous jump conditions,a pair of functions that satisfy the same non-homogeneous jump conditions are constructed using a level-set representation of the interface.With such a pair of functions,the discontinuities across the interface in the solution and flux are removed;and an equivalent elasticity interface problem with homogeneous jump conditions is formulated.Numerical examples are presented to demonstrate that such methods have second order convergence.

文摘The lowest order Pl-nonconforming triangular finite element method (FEM) for elliptic and parabolic interface problems is investigated. Under some reasonable regularity assumptions on the exact solutions, the optimal order error estimates are obtained in the broken energy norm. Finally, some numerical results are provided to verify the theoretical analysis.

文摘A new treatment for interface of metal and dielectric in finite-difference time domain (FDTD) method was presented, further how and why this treatment should be as it is was explained. The FDTD method was developed to compute the low-frequency electromagnetic fields in the metal instead of the traditional high-frequency ones as it was originally proposed. The computational results agreed well with the experimental ones.

文摘The embedded boundary method for solving elliptic and parabolic problems in geometrically complex domains using Cartesian meshes by Johansen and Colella (1998, J. Comput. Phys. 147, 60) has been extended for elliptic and parabolic problems with interior boundaries or interfaces of discontinuities of material properties or solutions. Second order accuracy is achieved in space and time for both stationary and moving interface problems. The method is conservative for elliptic and parabolic problems with fixed interfaces. Based on this method, a front tracking algorithm for the Stefan problem has been developed. The accuracy of the method is measured through comparison with exact solution to a two-dimensional Stefan problem. The algorithm has been used for the study of melting and solidification problems.
