The mathematical model of the dynamic process of suppressing the conductor galloping was constructed, including the interaction effect of the damper and string of insulators as a bearing body. This model differs from the previous ones since it accounts for the string rotation together with the damper due to its deviation from the vertical and special shaping of the damper grooves. The mathematical vibration protection model was devised with two nonlinear differential equations, which, after their linearization and integration, can find the amplitude-frequency response equation in the linear statement of the problem. The formula was analytically derived for the natural vibration frequency of the working body center of mass in the isochronous damper, which does not include the roller radius. The critical control damper parameters, which affect the suppressing quality and efficiency of forced conductor vibrations, are defined. The graph-numerical method was advanced to determine the optimum parameters of the damper adjustment. The damper offers the advantage of its natural frequency independence of the working body amplitude.

To linearize the initial nonlinear problem, the method of continuous continuation in the parameter associated with the external load was used. For the variational formulation of the linearized problem, a Lagrange functional was constructed, defined at kinematically possible displacement velocities. To find the main unknowns of the problem of nonlinear bending of a hollow shell (displacements, deformations, stresses), the Cauchy problem for a system of ordinary differential equations is formulated. The Cauchy problem was solved by the Runge-Kutta– Merson method with automatic step selection. The initial conditions are found in the solution to the problem of geometrically linear deformation. The right-hand sides of the differential equations at fixed values of the load parameter corresponding to the Runge-Kutta–Merson scheme were obtained from the solution of the variational problem for the Lagrange functional. The variational problems were solved by the Ritz method in combination with the R-function method. The latter makes it possible to present an approximate solution in the form of a formula, which solution structure exactly satisfies all (general structure) or part (partial structure) of the boundary conditions. The problems of nonlinear deformation of a square cylindrical shell and a shell of complex shape with combined fixation conditions are solved. The influence of the direction of external loading, geometric shape, and fixation conditions on the stress-strain state is investigated.

A methodology is proposed based on the results of assessing the fracture toughness of a material based on the structure state in the region of the crack tip. It is shown that the state of the material structure in the fracture zone of a uniaxially loaded specimen under the action of a stress close to the material’s ultimate strength is adequate to the structure state in the region of the crack tip before crack initiation and is a structural characteristic of this material. Based on the above correlation of material states, a structural parameter is proposed for assessing the fracture toughness of elastic-plastic materials with a crack. A statistical parameter, determined by the LM-hardness method from the Weibull homogeneity coefficient m, which characterizes the degree of scattering of hardness characteristics obtained by indenting the test portion of the loaded specimen, was taken as the fracture toughness index. This characteristic is invariant to the type of stress state and the loading method, i.e., the state of the material structure in the region of the crack tip does not depend on the loading method, which affects only the rate of reaching the ultimate structural damage in the region of the crack tip and the direction of crack propagation. It has been experimentally proved that the structural criterion of fracture toughness can be the same material characteristic as the force or strain characteristic of material fracture toughness. The difference between materials in their ability to resist crack initiation and propagation is determined by their initial structure. It depends only on the value of the thermal and force load parameters at which the material reaches a level of damage (loosening) of the structure at the crack tip sufficient for crack initiation. For comparison, we consider possible options for assessing the fracture toughness of elastic-plastic materials about the damageability of the structure: based on the scattering of the hardness values of the material of the specimen with a crack, on the state of the material structure in the test portion after the failure of the loaded specimen or after its reloading, as well as based on the state of the material structure of the specimen under loading to the ultimate strength of the material.</p>","PeriodicalId":22007,"journal":{"name":"Strength of Materials","volume":"96 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2024-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140928879","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
