Abstract:
ABSTRACTVisualising the loads that a structure can tolerate provides a key insight into the structural design process, especially for materials and structures that are governed by complex failure criteria. This paper proposes a general method for efficient construction of performance envelopes in load space, and demonstrates the approach with two examples. The performance envelope identifies all possible failure modes, all the redundant and non-redundant structural constraints, and the limiting failure mode in a particular direction in load space. Once the envelope has been constructed, the st

Presented in this paper are the three-dimensional nonlinear finite element analyses of the failure envelopes of suction caisson under torsion, vertical and lateral pullout combined load in soft clay. The soft clay under undrained condition is simulated by perfectly elasto-plastic Tresca model. Through the numerical analyses, the failure envelopes for combined loading (V-T、H-T、V-H-T) of suction caisson is reviewed. And the mathematical expression of failure envelope is deduced.

This paper aims to assess the effect of nonlinearity of the soil shear strength envelope on the sliding mass configurations and the minimum two- and three-dimensional factors of safety for slopes susceptible to translational failure in both static and seismic conditions. An extensive parametric study was conducted using slope models and nonlinear soil strength envelopes that simulate translational failure case histories. Analysis of the results led to the development of stability charts that do not require an iterative procedure when determining the factors of safety. The introduction of a two

Engineering analysis of slope stability includes three separate but interrelated phases: (a) experimental strength measurements, (b) determination of a strength envelope that best fits the experimental results, and (c) formal limiting equilibrium analysis using the resulting strength envelopes. Studying the interrelations between these phases leads to an integrated approach to slope stability analysis.

Abstract:
Transitional failure envelopes of single- and double-walled carbon nanotubes under combined tension-torsion are predicted using classical molecular dynamics simulations. The observations reveal that while the tensile failure load decreases with combined torsion, the torsional buckling moment increases with combined tension. As a result, the failure envelopes under combined tension-torsion are definitely different from those under pure tension or torsion. In such combined loading, there is a multitude of failure modes (tensile failure and torsional buckling), and the failure consequently exhibi

The bearing capacity of embedded foundations subject to combined horizontal and moment loading in undrained soils is of interest particularly to the offshore geotechnical engineer. These loadings can be experienced by monopod foundations and offshore manifolds and often take the form of a horizontal load applied at a lever arm height above the foundation base. Previous design methods using the failure envelope approach have suggested that peak moment capacity of a foundation is mobilized with positive horizontal loads, but that peak horizontal load is mobilized with no additional moment loadin

Due to the dynamically-varying nature of aircraft loading scenarios, a large number of global load cases are generated which must be analysed in a Global Finite Element Model (GFEM) to obtain the internal load paths going into each substructure.

One innovation developed by QUB to reduce the number of load cases is to use Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) to derive a smaller set of characteristic loads which represent all the global

A major design issue in the implementation of a Subsurface Drip Irrigation (SDI) system for extensively crops such as alfalfa (i.e. crops that cover the entire surface as opposed to row crops), is the determination of the appropriate depth of placement of the drip line tubing. It is important to allow necessary farming operations with heavy equipment at harvesting times while still providing adequate water to meet the crop water requirements. It is also a need to ensure appropriate spacing between the dripline laterals to assure reasonable lateral irrigation uniformity for plant germination.

While the displacement paths are arbitrarily or empirically set, the positions of the stabilised loads on the failure envelope can not be predetermined or planned.

The distribution of wind-driven rain loads on building facades is of high importance in evaluating the hygrothermal performance and durability of building envelopes. Wind-driven rain is known to be a major source of moisture loads on building facades and is responsible for numerous cases of facade failure. One of the classical solutions for preventing the building envelope from being extensively exposed to such loads is the use of overhangs. In this work, the effects of different overhang lengths on the distribution of wind-driven rain on building facades are investigated by numerical methods.
