In this paper, we study the effect of the crystalline mean shape on the constitutive relation of the orthorhombic polycrystal. The crystalline mean shape and the crystalline orientation arrangement are described by the crystalline shape function (CSF) and the orientation distribution function (ODF), respectively. The CSF and the ODF are expanded as an infinite series in terms of the Wigner D-functions. The expanded coefficients of the CSF and the ODF are called the shape coefficients s^lm0 and the texture coefficients c^lmn respectively. Assuming that Ceff in the constitutive relation depends on the shape coefficients s^lm0 and the texture coefficients c^lmn by the principle of material frame-indifference we derive an analytical expression for C^eff up to terms linear in s^lmo and c^lmn and the expression would be applicable to the polycrystal whose texture is weak and whose crystalline mean shape has weak anisotropy. C^cff contains six unspecified material constants (λ, μ, c, s1, s2, s3), five shape coefficients (s^2 00, s^2 20, s^4 00, s^4 20, s^4 40), and three texture coefficients (c^4 99,c^4 20, c^4 40), The results based on the perturbation approach are used to determine the five material constants approximately. We also find that the shape coefficients 2 and a s^2mo and s^4m0 are all zero if the crystalline mean shape is a cuboid. Some examples are given to compare our computational results.展开更多

Systematic experiments were carried out for weirs with two different gear heights and eight groups of geometrical parameters. The impacts of various geometrical parameters of gear-shaped weirs on the discharge capacity were investigated. The following conclusions are drawn from the experimental study:(1) The discharge coefficient(m_c) was influenced by the size of the gear: at a constant discharge, the weir with larger values of a/b(a is the width of the gear, and b is the width between the two neighboring gears) and a/c(c is the height of the gear) had a smaller value of m_c. The discharge capacity of the gear-shaped weir was influenced by the water depth in the weir.(2) For type C1 with a gear height of 0.01 m, when the discharge was less than 60m^3/h and H_1=P < 1.0(H_1 is the water depth at the low weir crest, and P is the weir height), m_c significantly increased with the discharge and H_1=P; with further increases of the discharge and H_1=P, m_cshowed insignificant decreases and fluctuated within small ranges. For type C2 with a gear height of 0.02 m, when the discharge was less than 60m^3/h and H_1=P < 1.0, m_csignificantly increased with the discharge and H_1=P; when the discharge was larger than 60m^3/h and H_1=P > 1.0, m_c slowly decreased with the increases of the discharge and H_1=P for a=b 1.0 and a=c 1.0, and slowly increased with the discharge and H_1=P for a=b > 1.0 and a=c > 1.0.(3) A formula of m_cfor gear-shaped weirs was established based on the principle of weir flow, with consideration of the water depth in the weir, the weir height and width, and the height of the gear.展开更多
