Stress-strain relations for sand based on particulate considerationsAtukorala, Upul Dhananath January 1989 (has links)
Particulate, discrete and frictional systems such as sand constitute a separate class of materials. In order to derive stress-strain relations for these materials, their key features have to be identified and incorporated into the theoretical formulations. The presence of voids, the ability to undergo continuous and systematic spatial rearrangement of particles, the existence of bounds for the developed ratio of tangent and normal contact forces and the systematic variations of the tangent and normal contact force distributions during general loading, are identified as key features of particulate, discrete and frictional systems.
The contact normal and the contact branch length distribution functions describe the spatial arrangement of particles mathematically. The distribution of contact normals exhibit mutually orthogonal principal directions which coincide with the principal stress directions. Most contacts in frictional systems do not develop limiting friction during general loading. Sliding of a few suitably oriented contacts followed by rolling and rigid body rotations and displacements of a large number of particles is the main mechanism causing non-recoverable deformations in frictional systems. As a part of the rearranging process, dominant chains of particles are continuously constructed and destructed, the rates being different at different stages of loading. A change of loading direction is associated with a change of dominant chains of particles resulting in changes in strain magnitudes.
Rate insensitive incremental stress-strain relations are derived here using the principle of virtual forces. The key features of frictional systems have been incorporated into the stress-strain relations following the theoretical framework proposed by Rothenburg(1980), for analysing bonded systems of uniform spherical particles. For frictional systems, the load-deformation response at particle contacts is assumed to be non-linear. The deformations
resulting from all internal activity are quantified defining equivalent incrementally elastic stiffnesses in the tangent and normal directions at contacts and defining loading and unloading criteria. After each increment of loading, the incremental stiffnesses and contact normal distribution are updated to account for the changes resulting from rearrangement of particles. Laws that describe the spatial rearrangement of particles, changes in the ratio between the tangent and normal contact force distributions and the resistance to deformation
resulting from changes in dominant chains of particles are established based on the information from laboratory experiments reported in the literature and numerical experiments
of Bathurst(1985). The stress ratio and the state parameter (defined as the ratio of void ratios at the critical-state to the current state, computed for a given mean-normal stress) are identified as key variables that can be used to quantify the extent of particle rearrangements.
The proposed formulations are capable of modelling the non-linear stress-strain response which is dependent on the inherent anisotropy, stress induced anisotropy, density of packing, stress level and stress path. To predict the stress-strain response of sand, a total of 24 model parameters have to be evaluated. All the model parameters can be evaluated from five conventional triaxial compression tests.
The proposed stress-strain relations have been verified by comparing with laboratory measurements on sand. The data base consists of triaxial tests reported by Negussey(1984), hollow cylinder tests graciously carried out for the author by A. Sayao, and true triaxial and hollow cylinder tests made available for the Cleveland Workshop(1987). / Applied Science, Faculty of / Civil Engineering, Department of / Graduate

Stress analysis of parabolic arches and their dynamic behaviorHou, Shou-nien January 1958 (has links)
This thesis is concerned with both the static and dynamic analysis of parabolic arches. In the dynamic part, special attention is given to the free vibration of such arches.
The following procedure is followed. The loading conditions are assumed and a infinitesimal segment of the arch is taken so as the differential equations relating deflections and slope changes on both ends of the segment are developed. These obtain a set of general equations for elastic parabolic arches.
In dynamics, the equations of general curved structure are developed through considerations of dynamic equilibrium. A sudden removal of loading is assumed to cause the structure to vibrate freely. Then, a method of separating variables for partial differential equations is used to get the equations of deflection components. Each special characteristic function is derived for each special set of boundary conditions so as to get an unlimited number of modes of free vibrations. The Fourier series is employed to determine the coefficients of the dynamic equations, and to get a series-form solution for deflections.
Finally, two numerical examples are given to represent the practical application. Two kinds of parabolic arches, one with two-hinged supports and the other with fixed-ends are considered in each procedure. / Master of Science

Elasto-plastic stress analysis of curved structures with rectangular sectionHsu, Robert Y. 09 November 2012 (has links)
Since the Eighteenth century, a great amount of research has been done using the elastic analysis technique in the field of curved structures. Recently the question of behavior beyond the yielding range has become increasingly important. By applying the methods of plastic analysis, the collapse load of a structure can be determined, and also the stress distribution and the deflection, just before collapse, can be calculated. However the evolution of the stress distribution and the deflection at any section of the structure between the load causing first yielding and the collapse load is still an unsolved problem.
Concerning the problem of evolution of the stress distribution in the inelastic range, most literature relies on the simple plastic theory in which the effect of the axial force on the formation of a plastic hinge is neglected. In fact this conception is in serious error in some cases, especially when the curved structure is a shallow arch, the stresses developed are apparently governed by the axial force. Literature considering the combined effects of bending moment and axial force is very rare.
In this thesis, the author proposes a new method, incorporating effects of both axial force and bending moment, of determining the evolution of stress distributions and the deflections in the inelastic range. The thesis includes three parts. In the first to parts, the theory for the stress analysis and for the deflection of a rectangular section is presented. The third part contains three examples to illustrate the use of the new method in practical engineering problems. / Master of Science

Analysis of structural development during superdrawing of poly(ethylene terephthalate) fibersJain, Vibhor 09 January 2009 (has links)
A comprehensive experimental study was conducted to determine the limitations in processing conditions for superdrawing. Experimental studies were carried out by uniaxial drawing tests at temperatures from 90 to 120°C and at strain rates ranging from 0.008/s to 0.425/s. Crystallinity and orientation of the drawn samples were evaluated using differential scanning calorimetry and birefringence measurements. This study revealed that increasing temperature from 110°C to 120°C leads to more crystallization at low strain rates (0.001/s), and less crystallization at high strain rates (0.1/s). Furthermore, it was shown for the first time that the mechanism of crystallinity development in PET undergoes a transition at draw temperature of 113°C and strain rate of 0.17/s.
A new one-dimensional constitutive model was developed to predict the stress-strain behavior of PET fibers as they are drawn to very large draw ratios (up to 10) over a wide range of temperature (90-120°C) and strain rate (0.008-0.425/s). The model was based on the rubber elasticity theory and non-linear viscoelasticity.
