In order to assess the strength and durability of such materials and structures, exhaustive theoretical and numerical investigations have been conducted over the past two decades. The main purpose of this paper is to present a state-of-the-art review and a critical discussion on the research of the MEE fracture mechanics. Following an introduction, the basic theory of the fracture mechanics in the linear magnetoelectroelasticity is explained with special emphasis on the constitutive equations related to different fracture modes, magnetoelectrical (ME) crack-face boundary conditions and fracture parameters for 2D plane problems. Then, the state of the art of the research on the fracture mechanics of the MEE materials and structures is reviewed and summarized, including 2D anti-plane and in-plane as well as 3D analyses under both static and dynamic loadings. The ME effects on the fracture parameters are revealed and discussed. Moreover, numerical investigations based on the finite element method (FEM), boundary element method (BEM), meshless methods and other novel methods are also reviewed for MEE fracture problems. Finally, some conclusions are drawn with several prospects to open questions and demanding future research topics. In particular, experimental observations are urgently needed to verify the validity of the theoretical predictions of the various fracture criteria. Another great challenge is to tackle the non-linear phenomena and domain switching in the fracture process zone.","PeriodicalId":8048,"journal":{"name":"Applied Mechanics Reviews","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":12.2,"publicationDate":"2024-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141820217","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The early mathematical description of statistical scaling stems from the birth of the extreme value statistics. The most commonly known mathematical model for statistical scaling is the Weibull size effect, a direct consequence of the infinite weakest-link model. However, abundant experimental observations on different localization-induced failures showed that the Weibull size effect is inadequate. Over the last two decades, two mathematical models were developed to describe the statistical size effect on localization-induced failures. One is the finite weakest-link model, in which the random structural resistance is expressed as the minimum of a set of discrete independent random variables, and the other is the level excursion model, a continuum description of the finite weakest-link model, in which the structural failure probability is calculated as the probability of the upcrossing of a random field over a barrier. This paper reviews the mathematical formulation of these two models, and their applications to various engineering problems including the strength distributions of quasibrittle structures, failure statistics of micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) devices, breakdown statistics of highk gate dielectrics, and probability distribution of buckling pressure of spherical shells containing random geometric imperfections. The implications of statistical scaling for the stochastic finite element simulations and the reliability-based structural design are discussed. In particular, the recent development of the size-dependent safety factors is reviewed.","PeriodicalId":8048,"journal":{"name":"Applied Mechanics Reviews","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":14.3,"publicationDate":"2024-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141267956","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is well known that story velocities are vital parameters for the design of steel structures with supplementary dampers. It has been recognized that nonlinear time history analysis is required to achieve an accurate evaluation of actual velocities, but this approach seems to be complicated and time-consuming for practical engineers. For this reason, this paper investigates the inelastic velocity ratio, which can be defined as the ratio of the maximum inelastic velocity to the maximum elastic one for steel buildings. The knowledge of this ratio, a unique factor for the whole structure, can be used to evaluate the maximum inelastic story velocities directly from the elastic counterparts. The proposed study is general and can be used in both ordinary steel structures as well as steel structures with supplemental damping devices. Widespread parametric studies are executed to achieve simple yet effective expressions for inelastic velocity ratios.","PeriodicalId":8048,"journal":{"name":"Applied Mechanics Reviews","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135266476","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To model these effects on frequency response of nanotubes, we use Eringen’s nonlocal elastic theory and surface elastic theory proposed by Gurtin and Murdoch to modify the governing equation. A modified version of Timoshenko nonlocal elasticity theory—known as the nonlocal truncated Timoshenko beam theory—is put forth to investigate the free vibration behavior of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). Using Hamilton’s principle, the governing equations and the corresponding boundary conditions are derived. Finally, to check the accuracy and validity of the proposed method, some numerical examples are carried out. The impacts of the nonlocal coefficient, surface effects, and nanotube length on the free vibration of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are evaluated, and the results are compared with those found in the literature. The findings indicate that the length of the nanotube, the nonlocal parameter, and the surface effect all play important roles and should not be disregarded in the vibrational analysis of nanotubes. Finally, the results show how effective and successful the current formulation is at explaining the behavior of nanobeams.","PeriodicalId":8048,"journal":{"name":"Applied Mechanics Reviews","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135728780","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While early scholars (Galileo, da Vinci, etc.) were experts across fields, specialization has taken hold later. With the advent of Artificial Intelligence, we can now explore relationships across areas (e.g., mechanics-biology) or disparate domains (e.g., failure mechanics-art). To achieve this, we use a fine-tuned Large Language Model (LLM), here for a subset of knowledge in multiscale materials failure. The approach includes the use of a general-purpose LLM to distill question-answer pairs from raw sources followed by LLM fine-tuning. The resulting MechGPT LLM foundation model is used in a series of computational experiments to explore its capacity for knowledge retrieval, various language tasks, hypothesis generation, and connecting knowledge across disparate areas. While the model has some ability to recall knowledge from training, we find that LLMs are particularly useful to extract structural insights through Ontological Knowledge Graphs. These interpretable graph structures provide explanatory insights, frameworks for new research questions, and visual representations of knowledge that also can be used in retrieval-augmented generation. Three versions of MechGPT are discussed, featuring different sizes from 13 billion to 70 billion parameters, and reaching context lengths of more than 10,000 tokens. This provides ample capacity for sophisticated retrieval augmented strategies, as well as agent-based modeling where multiple LLMs interact collaboratively and/or adversarially, the incorporation of new data from the literature or web searches, as well as multimodality.","PeriodicalId":8048,"journal":{"name":"Applied Mechanics Reviews","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135730633","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The external steel plates increase the stiffness, the sustainability, and the strength of the structures under some extreme solicitations. Moreover, the use of these plates as lost prefabricated formwork makes SCS structures modular, enabling higher construction rates. However, for a better understanding of the complex behavior of these structures up to failure, refined numerical simulations are needed to consider various local phenomena, such as concrete crushing in compression and interface interactions. Indeed, the highly non-linear steel–concrete interaction around the dowels is the key point of the composite action. In this contribution, a refined methodology is first proposed and applied on a push-out test. It is especially demonstrated that a regularization technique in compression is needed for the concrete model. Interface elements are also developed and associated with a nonlinear constitutive law between steel connectors and external plates. From this refined methodology, simplified numerical modeling is then deduced and validated. Directly applied to an SCS wall-to-wall junction, this simplified strategy enables the reproduction of the overall behavior, including the elastic phase, the degradation of the system, and the failure mode. The response of each component is particularly analyzed, and the key points of the behavior are highlighted.","PeriodicalId":8048,"journal":{"name":"Applied Mechanics Reviews","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135889944","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
