A recent approach has been proposed in the literature to model the nonlinear behavior of a cable element based on three dimensional catenary elastic modelling and the general displacement control method (GDCM) as solver. In this paper, two modifications of this method are proposed to take into account the geometric constraints coupling the large displacements of the cable extremities. The first approach is to consider these constraints using penalty functions thus modifying the tangent stiffness matrix and the second method by adding external explicit elastic forces. These two methods are tested and compared by using numerical examples. The first method is numerically safer because it is not dependent on the poor numerical conditioning of the cable’stiffness matrix encountered when internal cable’s tension cannot balance the external forces.","PeriodicalId":45463,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Computational Mechanics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-02-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44554356","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Corrugated steel mechanical properties will directly affect the stability of support structure. Therefore, the important thing is to choose the appropriate parameter to improve the mechanical performance of ripples. Parameters that affecting the mechanical properties of corrugated steel include wave height, corrugation thickness and wave distance. This massage will rely on the Qipan Mountain tunnel project, studying its fabricated corrugated steel supporting structure, and selects corrugated steel with different thicknesses, wave heights and corrugated spans for transient analysis. The largest deformation of corrugated steel under blasting shock is calculated by numerical simulation to react the corrugated steel mechanical properties, and then use the method of Entropy to determine the influence of different parameter values on mechanical performance of corrugated steel. The weight coefficient of wave thickness is 92.38%, the influence weight coefficient of wave height is 7.54%, and the influence weight coefficient of wave short is 0.07%. It is shows that the thickness has the greatest influence on the mechanical properties of the supporting structure, and the wave distance has no influence. Through the above analysis, the parameter design and stability design of corrugated steel support structure can be given some reference and help.","PeriodicalId":45463,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Computational Mechanics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-02-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48213579","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The mesh structure is flexible and different mesh shapes and arrangements will affect the structural stiffness of the object. The unique structure of dragonfly wing veins allows the dragonfly to withstand pressures several times higher than itself and to fly freely. This study is based on dragonfly wing bionics to disassemble the structure of dragonfly wing vein geometry. And it aims to investigate the deflection under different geometries and three-dimensional spatial structures by using the drawing software Auto CAD to draw dragonfly sample graphics, the finite element software Hyper mesh to build the model and the solver OptiStruct to analyze the structure of wrinkling, arching deflection, z-direction maximum displacement, y-direction maximum rotation angle, combined displacement test under the different loads. The results show that: (1) The dragonfly wing vein mesh structure can enhance the stiffness under load. (2) In contrast, the displacement deformation of quadrilateral and combined hexagonal is smaller. (3) The structural stiffness of quadrilateral hexagon is enhanced as the height of wrinkling and arching increases. (4) The improvement of grid deflection with membrane structure is better than that without membrane structure. According to the above experimental results, the quadrilateral wrinkling and hexagonal arching structure has a significant improvement on the load bearing and deflection of the mesh, and has the potential to make structural optimization of the mesh series products, which is suitable for practical application and promotion.","PeriodicalId":45463,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Computational Mechanics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-02-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48981824","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since the development of heavy haul freight transport in China, wheel rail wear has been paid much attention, especially the use of heavy axle load locomotives on upgraded heavy haul lines, which makes reducing wheel rail wear and damage become a technical problem to be solved urgently. Considering that there are too many mechanical parameters involved in the prediction of heavy load wheel rail wear mechanical properties, the prediction accuracy is reduced. Therefore, this paper proposes a method based on GA-BP hybrid algorithm to predict the mechanical properties of heavy load wheel/rail wear. Hertz contact theory is used to simplify the wheel rail contact relationship, and the wheel rail contact model is established. According to the wheel/rail contact model, the expressions of heavy load wheel/rail in the case of vertical, horizontal, direction and gauge irregularity are analyzed, and based on this, a mechanical model of heavy load wheel/rail wear is established. In order to solve the problems of slow convergence speed and easy to fall into local optimum of BP neural network in the prediction of heavy load wheel/rail wear mechanical properties, the global convergence of genetic algorithm is used to optimize the BP network. According to the obtained mechanical parameters of heavy load wheel/rail wear, the mechanical parameters are input into the optimized model, and the relevant prediction results are output. So far, the research on the prediction method of heavy load wheel/rail wear mechanical properties based on GA-BP hybrid algorithm has been realized. The experiment is designed from three aspects of wear degree, hardness and tensile strength, and compared with the measured value, reference [4] method, reference [5] method and reference [6] method to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method. The experimental results show that the predicted results of wear degree, hardness and tensile strength by this method are closer to the measured results. It is proved that the proposed method has higher prediction accuracy and better practical application effect.","PeriodicalId":45463,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Computational Mechanics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-11-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45573933","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, the so-called pseudospectral method is employed, where state variables are approximated by Lagrange interpolating polynomials and static equations are collocated at Legendre-Gauss-Radau nonuniform mesh points. The resulting shape optimization problems are thus transcribed into constrained nonlinear programming problems, which in turn are solved by developed routines. Historical benchmark and academic problems such as simply supported beams subject to a concentrated compressing force, compressed and rotating cantilever beams and simply supported beams under a non-conservative follower distributed load are revisited and numerically solved under the conditions of plane deformation theory. Numerical solutions are discussed and compared to those obtained by the shooting method, which is largely employed for these problems, emphasizing how the proposed method could forecast optimal cross sectional area distributions within a unified fashion and without resorting to accurate guesses beforehand.","PeriodicalId":45463,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Computational Mechanics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44137114","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Asymmetric rolling (ASR) shows to be an adequate process to change the material anisotropy by increasing the normal anisotropy and decreasing the planar anisotropy. In this work, it is analysed the relationship between anisotropy and texture evolution using experimental and numerical approaches. Experimentally, the texture is modified by rolling, involving symmetric (SR), asymmetric rolling continuous (ARC) and asymmetric reverse (ARR) routes and different reductions per pass. The numerical analysis was performed through the visco-plastic self-consistent model where two hardening laws were considered, namely the Voce-type (V) and the dislocation density-based model (DDR). The main objective of the numerical method was to test the performance of the VPSC model for large plastic deformation. The Lankford coefficients decrease in RD and increase in TD with the increase in the total thickness reduction.

Finite Hankel transform (Fourier-Bessel expansion) is utilized to solve the problem with respect to radial variable. Two different cases, pure mechanical load and pure thermal load, were studied numerically to show the effect of considering the thermomechanical coupling term in the heat conduction equation. To show the effect of considering the coupling term in the heat conduction equation, the temperature history is plotted for the pure mechanical load case, where the temperature rises without applying any thermal load.

Firstly, the influencing factors of foundation bearing capacity are analyzed, and then the prediction parameters of foundation pressure strength and foundation strength are calculated. The prediction error was obtained by comparing the difference between the predicted value and the actual intensity, which was used as the optimization value to improve the accuracy of the prediction results of the characteristic values of the subsequent bearing capacity. Then, by calculating the characteristic parameters of foundation mechanics and establishing the boundary conditions of foundation bearing capacity, the mathematical model of foundation bearing capacity is constructed, so as to complete the analysis of the mechanical characteristics of foundation bearing capacity. The analysis results and foundation strength prediction parameters are input into the RBF neural network model. On the basis of optimizing parameter weights by the improved Relief algorithm, the prediction results of characteristic values of foundation bearing capacity are obtained by using the hyperparameters of THE RBF neural network algorithm.
