However, fatigue often involves entangled complexities of material microstructures and service conditions, making diagnosis and prognosis of fatigue damage challenging. We report a statistical learning framework to predict the growth of fatigue cracks and the life-to-failure of the components under loading conditions with uncertainties. Digital libraries of fatigue crack patterns and the remaining life are constructed by high-fidelity physical simulations. Dimensionality reduction and neural network architectures are then used to learn the history dependence and nonlinearity of fatigue crack growth. Path-slicing and re-weighting techniques are introduced to handle the statistical noises and rare events. The predicted fatigue crack patterns are self-updated and self-corrected by the evolving crack patterns. The end-to-end approach is validated by representative examples with fatigue cracks in plates, which showcase the digital-twin scenario in real-time structural health monitoring and fatigue life prediction for maintenance management decision-making.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":46902,"journal":{"name":"Theoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters","volume":"13 6","pages":"Article 100477"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2023-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S209503492300048X/pdfft?md5=18a2938c5343e7e3c0b851217dba8417&pid=1-s2.0-S209503492300048X-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91998791","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed framework is demonstrated by applying it to the Sandia National Laboratory Scaled Wind Farm Technology facility consisting of three 225 kW turbines. LES of this site is performed for different wind speeds and yaw angles to generate datasets for training and validating the proposed ACNN. It is shown that the ACNN accurately predicts turbine wake characteristics for cases with turbine yaw angle and wind speed that were not part of the training process. Specifically, the ACNN is shown to reproduce the wake redirection of the upstream turbine and the secondary wake steering of the downstream turbine accurately.

However, studies have shown that people assume a squatting posture during daily activities. This paper introduces a novel mechanism that connects the knee joint with the foot-ankle joint to enable both squatting and walking. The prosthetic knee used is the well-known 3R36, while the Energy Storing and Return (ESAR) prosthetic foot is used for the ankle-foot joint. To coordinate knee and ankle joint movements, a six-bar linkage mechanism structure is proposed. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed modular transfemoral prosthesis accurately mimics the motion patterns of a natural human leg during walking and squatting. For instance, the prosthesis allows a total knee flexion of more than 140° during squatting. The new prosthesis design also incorporates energy-storing mechanisms to reduce energy expenditure during walking for amputees.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":46902,"journal":{"name":"Theoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters","volume":"13 5","pages":"Article 100476"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2095034923000478/pdfft?md5=560291a267a655201edfa6c9a585c331&pid=1-s2.0-S2095034923000478-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"92101423","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
