In the same way that historic masonry structures were designed to sustain loads by activating purely compressive force paths, a modern metamaterial can be designed for specific purposes following the same logic. Conventional analysis methods for compression-only shells and vaults, often developed for masonry structures, have tended not to model combined vertical and horizontal loads directly. This has created a significant challenge for engineers assessing historic vaults or designing new shells. To address this gap, this paper presents an enhanced method based on membrane equilibrium analysis (MEA) and the static theorem of limit analysis. This approach is the first application of MEA to directly consider vertical and horizontal body forces acting on a compression-only shell through a parametric formulation of an Airy stress function. The method is applied to a case study of a sail vault subjected to vertical and horizontal loads. Moreover, it is demonstrated how this approach can be used to define iso-resistant shapes that offer more sustainable design options while preserving structural capacity.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":525,"journal":{"name":"Continuum Mechanics and Thermodynamics","volume":"37 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s00161-024-01350-z.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142939206","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Finite Element simulations of cyclic indentation on two Generalized Maxwell materials with different relaxation spectra were performed. A variety of cyclic responses to indentation were generated and analyzed using an analytical method based on elastic contact. It is shown that the elastic contact depth and contact stiffness from the loading curves should be used to identify the relaxation modulus corresponding to the time of loading. The stabilization of the loop has also been studied through the energy ratio, a parameter that describes the evolution of the dissipated energy with cycles. A simple time shift between cyclic creep and monotonous indentation creep of a linear viscoelastic material is demonstrated. The simulated indentation curves and the parameters derived from them were found to be qualitatively similar to the experimental cyclic indentation data on HDPE polymer at different loading rates. Assuming that the first loading is affected by plasticity due to the use of a sharp indenter, a correction was suggested to obtain the elastic relaxation modulus from the experiments. The values of the modulus identified in this way for HDPE compared well with the relaxation modulus identified for this material from previous cyclic tensile experiments. The small discrepancy was attributed to the non-linear viscoelasticity or the viscoplasticity of the polymer.\u0000</p></div>","PeriodicalId":525,"journal":{"name":"Continuum Mechanics and Thermodynamics","volume":"37 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142939207","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The choice of such solutions with symmetries is generally the result of considering factors such as reducing design and production costs, logistical considerations, but also for aesthetic reasons. The existence of these symmetries inside some structures brings new properties in the mechanical behavior and can be useful in simplifying the calculation, in the static and dynamic case. Symmetries can bring new properties when the problem of studying vibrations is raised. Thus, the dynamic analysis time can be reduced and the designer can get a quick picture of the behavior of the structure in operation. The paper aims to study a special situation of symmetry that can be encountered in engineering practice, namely the existence of three planes of symmetry within a structure. Such structures can be found frequently in the field of mechanical engineering but also in the construction of buildings. The presented properties can contribute to the reduction of dynamic analysis time and therefore to the reduction of design costs.

The treatment addresses the problem of non-smooth elastoplasticity which is represented by functions characterized by singularities and defined by non-smooth yielding limit conditions and non-differentiable functions. The mathematical theory of subdifferential calculus is properly advocated to provide the suitable mathematical framework in order to treat non-differentiable functions and non-smooth problems. Extended expressions of evolutive laws and complementarity conditions in non-smooth elastoplasticity are illustrated within the adopted generalized mathematical treatment. Relations between the presented mathematical formulations and the expressions in classical elastoplasticity are pointed out and discussed. The proposed treatment has significant advantages since it provides a geometrical framework to the maximum dissipation principle for non-smooth problems in elastoplasticity. Furtherly, the proposed treatment gives insights in the interpretation of the adopted geometrical framework for different types of evolutive laws for new materials and solids such as for instance in some types of new metamaterials with non-smooth constitutive behavior. In addition, the present formulation is also useful in the design of metamaterials, such as pantographic ones, where the plasticity of the pivots is relevant.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":525,"journal":{"name":"Continuum Mechanics and Thermodynamics","volume":"37 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142912797","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To address these challenges, the sophisticated coupled thermoelastic diffusion dynamic model has been developed based on Biot’s wave equation, Fick’s law, viscoelastic theory, and Ezzat’s fractional-order thermoelastic theory. The research presented here delves into the intricate thermoviscoelastic diffusion dynamic response of the system, exploring how it reacts when simultaneously confronted with a thermal source, normal load, and chemical shock directly applied to the surface of the cylindrical tunnel cavity. The Laplace transform and the Crump numerical inversion method have been used to obtain the non-dimensional displacement, temperature, chemical potential, concentration, radial stress, hoop stress, and axial stress. A meticulous analysis reveals the intricate interplay between the fractional coefficient, temporal evolution, and diverse shock load types on these variables. The fractional-order coefficients have a certain effect on the analysis of all physical variables except the non-dimensional chemical potential. The action time has a significant effect on all non-dimensional physical variables. The two different viscoelastic relaxation time factors have no significant effect on non-dimensional temperature and chemical potential, however, have obvious effects on non-dimensional concentration, radial stress, hoop stress, and axial stress.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":525,"journal":{"name":"Continuum Mechanics and Thermodynamics","volume":"37 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-12-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142888052","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
