Based on the first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT), the nonlinear dynamic equations involving the transverse shear deformation and initial geometric imperfections were derived with the Hamilton philosophy. The axial shallow groove of the laminated composite cylindrical shell was treated as the initial geometric imperfections in the dynamic equations. A semi-analytical method of expanding displacements and loads along the circumferential direction and employing the finite difference method along the axial direction and in the time domain is used to solve the governing equations and obtain the dynamic response of the laminated shell. The B-R criterion was employed to determine the critical loads of dynamic buckling of the shell.

In this paper, a SP3 code named STELLA is developed and verified at SNERDI (Shanghai Nuclear Engineering Research and Design Institute). For SP3 method, neutron transport equation can be transformed into two coupled equations in the same mathematical form as diffusion equation. In this work, SANM (semi-analytic nodal method) is used to solve diffusion-like equation, due to its easy to handle multi-group problem. Whole core nodal boundary net current coupling is used to improve convergence stability in SANM, instead of solving two-node problem. CMFD (coarse-mesh finite difference) acceleration method is employed for 0-th SP3 equation, which represents the neutron balance relationship. Three benchmarks are used to verify the SP3 code, STELLA. The first one is a self-defined one dimensional problem, which demonstrates SP3 method is extremely accurate, due to no academic approximation in one dimensional for SP3. The second one is a two dimensional one-group problem cited from Larsen's paper, which is usually used to verify and prove the SP3 code correct and accurate. And the third one is modified from 2D C5G7-MOX benchmark, whose numerical results indicate that STELLA is accurate and efficient in pin size level, compared to diffusion model.展开更多

Within the framework of the frequency-domain potential flow theory, a semi-analytical higher-order translating-pulsating source(HOTP) method is presented to solve the problems of coupled radiation and diffraction potential. The method employs nine-node bi-quadratic curvilinear elements to discretize the boundary integral equations(BIEs) constructed over the mean wetted surface of the two ship hulls. In order to eliminate the numerical oscillation, analytical quadrature formulas are derived and adopted to evaluate the integrals related to the Froudedependent part of the Green’s function along the horizontal direction in the BIEs. Based on the method, a numerical program is originally coded. Through the calculations of hydrodynamic responses of single ships, the numerical implementation is proved successful. Then the validated program is applied in the investigations on the hydrodynamic interactions of two identical Wigley Ⅲ hulls and the underway replenishment of a frigate and a supply ship in waves with and without stagger, respectively. The comparison between the present computed results with experimental data and numerical solutions of other methods shows that the semi-analytical HOTP method is of higher accuracy than the pulsating source Green’s function method with speed correction and better stability than the traditional HOTP method based on Gauss quadrature. In addition, for two ships with obviously different dimensions,the influence of hydrodynamic interactions on the smaller ship is found to be more noticeable than that on the larger ship, which leads to the differences between the motions of frigate with and without the presence of supply ship.展开更多

The rolling motion equation of the ship in random oblique waves was established. The righting arm obtained by the numerical simulation was approximately fitted by an analytical function. The irregular waves were decomposed into two Gauss stationary random processes, and the CARMA(2, 1) model was used to fit the spectral density function of parametric and forced excitations. The stochastic energy envelope averaging method was used to solve the PDFs and the probability. The validity of the semi-analytical method was verified by the Monte Carlo method. The C11 ship was taken as an example, and the influences of the system parameters on the PDFs and probability were analyzed. The results show that the probability of ship rolling is affected by the characteristic wave height, wave length, and the heading angle. In order to provide proper advice for the ship’s manoeuvring, the parametric excitations should be considered appropriately when the ship navigates in the oblique seas.展开更多

In order to have continuous stress and deformation ?elds, a new semi-analytical approach is developed to predict the swelling induced?nite bending for a functionally graded(FG) layer composed of a pH-sensitive hydrogel,in which the cross-link density is continuously distributed along the thickness direction under the plane strain condition. Without considering the intermediary virtual reference,the initial state is mapped into the deformed con?guration in a circular shape by utilizing a total deformation gradient tensor stemming from the inhomogeneous swelling of an FG layer in response to the variation of the pH value of the solvent. To enlighten the capability of the presented analytical method, the ?nite element method(FEM) is used to verify the accuracy of the analytical results in some case studies. The perfect agreement con-?rms the accuracy of the presented method. Due to the applicability of FG pH-sensitive hydrogels, some design factors such as the semi-angle, the bending curvature, the aspect ratio, and the distributions of deformation and stress ?elds are studied. Furthermore, the tangential free-stress axes are illustrated in deformed con?guration.展开更多

We expand the electrostatic potential of the system in terms of some basis functions such as spherical harmonic function and cylinder function. The expansion coefficients can be obtained by solving the equations of the boundary conditions, combining an analytical translation transform of the coordinates and a numerical multipoint collection method. The precise electrostatic potential and the interaction energy are then obtained automatically. The method is available not only for the uniformly charged colloids but also for nonuniformly charged ones. We have successfully applied it to unconfined diluted colloid system and some confined systems such as the long cylinder wall confinement, the air–water interfacial confinement and porous membrane confinement. The consistence checks of our calculations with some known analytical cases have been made for all our applications. In theory, the method is applicable to any dilute colloid solutions with an arbitrary distribution of the surface charge on the colloidal particle under a regular solid confinement, such as spherical cavity confinement and lamellar confinement.展开更多

文摘This work focuses on the fluid-rigid interaction dynamics in the presence of a magnetic field.A rigid thin rectangular column immersed inside stationary metal liquid vibrates with a fixed small amplitude.The magneto-fluid-solid interaction(MFSI)dynamics issue is studied based on the complex Green’s function method.Considering either the normal or tangential vibration of a column,two types of semi-analytical solutions expressed by stream function integral equations of magnetic corrections,describing the time-displacement history of the column,flow field and electrical potential field of metal fluid and representing transient coupling effects of multi-physics field,are derived,respectively.Nonuniform discretization schemes and an iterative plan are applied to evaluate added damping and inertial loads.The results show that the main factor affecting normal vibration is pressure load,and the main factor affecting tangential vibration is vorticity load.The nonlinear effects of magnetic fields on the dynamics of fluid-rigid thin columns are revealed.The normal vibration exhibits better stability than the tangential vibration under the magnetic field.The induced electrical potential field and current intensity excited by normal vibration are significantly stronger than that of tangential vibration.These semi-analytical solutions can be applied as benchmarks in future validation and verification works for MFSI numerical algorithms for magnetic confinement nuclear fusion science.

文摘A semi-analytical finite element method(SAFEM),based on the two-scale asymptotic homogenization method(AHM)and the finite element method(FEM),is implemented to obtain the effective properties of two-phase fiber-reinforced composites(FRCs).The fibers are periodically distributed and unidirectionally aligned in a homogeneous matrix.This framework addresses the static linear elastic micropolar problem through partial differential equations,subject to boundary conditions and perfect interface contact conditions.The mathematical formulation of the local problems and the effective coefficients are presented by the AHM.The local problems obtained from the AHM are solved by the FEM,which is denoted as the SAFEM.The numerical results are provided,and the accuracy of the solutions is analyzed,indicating that the formulas and results obtained with the SAFEM may serve as the reference points for validating the outcomes of experimental and numerical computations.
文摘In this paper,a semi-analytical method is presented for free vibration and buckling analysis of functionally graded(FG)size-dependent nanobeams based on the physical neutral axis position.It is the first time that a semi-analytical differential transform method(DTM)solution is developed for the FG nanobeams vibration and buckling analysis.Material properties of FG nanobeam are supposed to vary continuously along the thickness according to the power-law form.The physical neutral axis position for mentioned FG nanobeams is determined.The small scale effect is taken into consideration based on nonlocal elasticity theory of Eringen.The nonlocal equations of motion are derived through Hamilton’s principle and they are solved applying DTM.It is demonstrated that the DTM has high precision and computational efficiency in the vibration analysis of FG nanobeams.The good agreement between the results of this article and those available in literature validated the presented approach.The detailed mathematical derivations are presented and numerical investigations are performed while the emphasis is placed on investigating the effect of the several parameters such as neutral axis position,small scale effects,the material distribution profile,mode number,thickness ratio and boundary conditions on the normalized natural frequencies and dimensionless buckling load of the FG nanobeams in detail.It is explicitly shown that the vibration and buckling behaviour of a FG nanobeams is significantly influenced by these effects.

文摘The aim of this paper is to introduce a new semi-analytical method,namely PIMOL(precise integration method of lines,the parametric finite difference method of lines based on the precise integration method),which is developed and used to solve the ordinary differential equation(ODEs)systems based on the finite difference method of lines and the precise integration method(PIM).Two examples of Poisson^equation problems are given:a boundary value problem and an ODE eigenvalue problem.The PIMOL can effectively reduce a semi-discrete ODE problem to a linear algebraic matrix equation.Numerical results show that the PIMOL is a powerful method.
文摘Dual vectors are applied in Hamilton system of applied mechanics. Electric and magnetic field vectors are the dual vectors in electromagnetic field. The Hamilton system method is introduced into the analysis of electromagnetism waveguide with inhomogeneous materials. The transverse electric and magnetic fields are regarded as the dual. The basic equations are solved in Hamilton system and symplectic geometry. With the Hamilton variational principle, the symplectic semi_analytical equations are derived and preserve their symplectic structures. The given numerical example demonstrates the solution of LSE (Longitudinal Section Electric) mode in a dielectric waveguide. (
文摘Recently, pH-sensitive hydrogels have been utilized in the diverse applications including sensors, switches, and actuators. In order to have continuous stress and deformation ?elds, a new semi-analytical approach is developed to predict the swelling induced?nite bending for a functionally graded(FG) layer composed of a pH-sensitive hydrogel,in which the cross-link density is continuously distributed along the thickness direction under the plane strain condition. Without considering the intermediary virtual reference,the initial state is mapped into the deformed con?guration in a circular shape by utilizing a total deformation gradient tensor stemming from the inhomogeneous swelling of an FG layer in response to the variation of the pH value of the solvent. To enlighten the capability of the presented analytical method, the ?nite element method(FEM) is used to verify the accuracy of the analytical results in some case studies. The perfect agreement con-?rms the accuracy of the presented method. Due to the applicability of FG pH-sensitive hydrogels, some design factors such as the semi-angle, the bending curvature, the aspect ratio, and the distributions of deformation and stress ?elds are studied. Furthermore, the tangential free-stress axes are illustrated in deformed con?guration.

文摘We present a semi-analytical method of calculating the electrostatic interaction of colloid solutions for confined and unconfined systems. We expand the electrostatic potential of the system in terms of some basis functions such as spherical harmonic function and cylinder function. The expansion coefficients can be obtained by solving the equations of the boundary conditions, combining an analytical translation transform of the coordinates and a numerical multipoint collection method. The precise electrostatic potential and the interaction energy are then obtained automatically. The method is available not only for the uniformly charged colloids but also for nonuniformly charged ones. We have successfully applied it to unconfined diluted colloid system and some confined systems such as the long cylinder wall confinement, the air–water interfacial confinement and porous membrane confinement. The consistence checks of our calculations with some known analytical cases have been made for all our applications. In theory, the method is applicable to any dilute colloid solutions with an arbitrary distribution of the surface charge on the colloidal particle under a regular solid confinement, such as spherical cavity confinement and lamellar confinement.

文摘Dry friction damping structures are widely-used in aero-engines to mitigate vibration.The nonlinear nature of friction and the two-dimensional in-plane motion on the contact interface bring challenges to accurately and efficiently predict the forced response of frictionally damped structures.The state-of-the-art Multi-Harmonic Balance Method(MHBM)on quasi-3D contact model in engineering cannot precisely capture the kinematics on the friction interface although the efficiency is high.The full-3D contact model can describe the constitutive relationship of the interface in a more accurate manner;however,the efficiency and convergence are not guaranteed for large-scale models.In this paper,a semi-analytical MHBM on full-3D contact model is proposed.The original Trajectory Tracking Method(TTM)for evaluating the contact force is reformulated to make the calculation more concise and the derivation of the Analytical Jacobian Matrix(AJM)feasible.Based on the chain rule of derivation,the AJM which is the core to upgrade the performance is deduced.Through a shrouded blade finite element model,the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method are compared with both the MHBM on full-3D contact model with numerical Jacobian matrix and the MHBM on quasi-3D contact model with AJM.The results show that the AJM improves significantly the efficiency of the MHBM on full-3D contact model.The time cost of the proposed method is in the same order of magnitude as that of the MHBM on quasi-3D contact model.We also confirm that the full-3D contact model is necessary for the dynamic analyses of shrouded blades.If one uses the quasi-3D model,the estimation relative error of damping can even reach 31.8%in some cases.In addition,the AJM also brings benefits for stability analysis.It is highly recommended that engineers use the MHBM on full-3D contact model for the dynamic analysis and design of shrouded blades.
