Damage diagnosis in frame structures with a dynamic response method

1990-6
Akgün, Müşerref Asuman
Ju, Fudong
The dynamic response of planar frame structures composed of damped Bernoulli-Euler beams is computed, with and without a crack present in the structure. The inertance changes due to the crack are investigated in relation to the crack location, with the aim of developing a diagnosis method. The optimum excitation location and frequency and the optimum locations for response measurement are determined for best diagnosis results. The effects of crack location and severity and of damping are investigated. Damping is accounted for by the complex Young's modulus. Frames are analyzed with the electrical analogy method. A crack is modeled as a torsional spring, which is represented with an electrical resistor in the analogy. The electrical analogy method is used only as an analysis tool in this study, with the resulting equations being solved on a digital computer.

Yielding of two-layer shrink-fitted composite tubes subject to radial pressure
Eraslan, Ahmet Nedim (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2005-12-01)
Yielding of two-layer shrink-fitted composite tubes with axially constrained ends subject to either internal or external pressure is investigated in detail. In the framework of small deformations, a state of plane strain and von Mises yield criterion, analytical expressions are obtained for critical values of the pressure leading to plastic flow. It is shown that, depending on material properties and tube dimensions, different modes of plastic deformation may occur. Yielding may commence at the inner tube o...
DIRECTIONAL DEPENDENCE OF EXTRAORDINARY INFRARED OSCILLATOR PARAMETERS OF TLGAS2-TYPE LAYER CRYSTALS
Hasanlı, Nızamı; TAGIROV, VI (Elsevier BV, 1983-01-01)
The directional dispersion of IR-active modes of TlGaS2, TlGaSe2 and TlInS2 layersingle crystals has been investigated, depending on the angle between the phonon wave vector q and the optical c-axis. Owing to the possibility of preparation crystals with various orientations of reflecting surfaces with respect to the optical c-axis, it was of interest to check the applicability of the generalized Born and Huang theory of long-wave optical vibrations in uniaxial crystals to TlGaS2-type layer crystals.
RECONSTRUCTION OF PERMITTIVITY AND CONDUCTIVITY PROFILES OF A DIELECTRIC SLAB IN THE TIME DOMAIN BY DESCENT METHODS
ONDER, M; Kuzuoğlu, Mustafa (Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), 1992-10-01)
An optimisation approach is presented for the problem of reconstructing the permittivity and conductivity profiles of a dielectric slab from the reflected and transmitted field data. The problem is treated as an optimal control problem where the norm of the difference of measured and calculated boundary data is minimised subject to the state equation governing the system. The original constrained optimisation problem is reduced to the evaluation of stationary points of an augmented functional which is obtai...
Axisymmetric crack problem for a hollow cylinder imbedded in a dissimilar medium
Kadıoğlu, Fevzi Suat (Elsevier BV, 2005-05-01)
The analytical solution for the linear elastic problem of flat annular crack in a transversely isotropic hollow cylinder imbedded in a transversely isotropic medium is considered. The hollow cylinder is assumed to be perfectly bonded to the surrounding medium. This structure, which can represent a cylindrical coating-substrate system, is subjected to uniform crack surface pressure. Because of the geometry and the loading, the problem is axisymmetric. The z = 0 plane on which the crack lies, is also a plane ...
COMPRESSIBLE, HYPERELASTIC SPINNING TUBES SUBJECTED TO CIRCUMFERENTIAL SHEAR
ERTEPINAR, A (Elsevier BV, 1991-01-01)
The finite strain behavior of cylindrical tubes, made of a polynomial compressible material and subjected to the simultaneous action of constant spin and uniform external circumferential shear, is investigated using the theory of finite elasticity. The inner surface of the tube is assumed to be perfectly bonded to a rigid shaft. The governing quasi-linear system of two ordinary differential equations is solved using a shooting method. Numerical results are generated to analyze, qualitatively, the effects...
