Abstract:
This study presents the characterization of the nonlinearly viscoelastic behavior of double base propellant (DBP) using Schapery-type constitutive model in the different conditions of temperature, strain level and strain rate. A recursive-iterative numerical algorithm is generated for the Schapery-type nonlinearly viscoelastic constitutive and implemented in a displacement-based finite element (FE) code for ABAQUS user material subroutines. Then, the model parameters are obtained by analyzing the response of creep-recovery tests and constant rate tensile tests at different temperatures, strain

Abstract:
The seismic vulnerability of a historical Basilica church located in Italy is studied by means of limit analysis and nonlinear finite element (FE) analysis. Attention is posed to the failure mechanisms involving the façade of the church and its interaction with the lateral walls. In particular, the limit analysis and the nonlinear FE analysis provide an estimate of the load collapse multiplier of the failure mechanisms. Results obtained from both approaches are in agreement and can support the selection of possible retrofitting measures to decrease the vulnerability of the church under seismic

Abstract:
A Finite Element (FE) based macro–element is described for the mechanical response of masonry structures within different ranges of analysis. The macro–element is composed of discrete rigid quadrilateral FE plates whose adjoining interfaces are connected through FE trusses. It allows representing both elasticity and strength orthotropy, full material nonlinearity and damage through a scalar–based model. The possibility of coupling with a so–called FE2 (multi–scale) strategy is also addressed. Validation of the macro–element is conducted within linear static, vibration, and cyclic (nonlinear) p

Abstract:
Nonlinear finite element (FE) analysis of reinforced concrete (RC) structures is characterized by numerous modeling options and input parameters. To accurately model the nonlinear RC behavior involving concrete cracking in tension and crushing in compression, practitioners make different choices regarding the critical modeling issues, e.g., defining the concrete constitutive relations, assigning the bond between the concrete and the steel reinforcement, and solving problems related to convergence difficulties and mesh sensitivities. Thus, it is imperative to review the common modeling choices

Abstract:
This paper presents an elastoplastic impact model for a spherical object impacting a supported composite layer or a half-space. The model utilizes a contact law that has been developed based on elastic-plastic and fully plastic indentation theories. For an impact event, the model parameters can easily be obtained analytically, computationally using Finite Elements (FE), and from experiments, by assuming transversely isotropic material behavior. Simulations are compared to those from a nonlinear FE model developed in ABAQUS, and to limited experimental data, with excellent results.

Background: It is well documented that epidural adhesion is associated with spinal pain. However, the underlying mechanism of spinal pain generation by epidural adhesion has not yet been elucidated. Objectives: To elucidate the underlying mechanism of spinal pain generation by epidural adhesion using a two-dimensional (2D) non-linear finite element (FE) analysis. Study design: A finite element analysis. Setting: A two-dimensional nonlinear FE model of the herniated lumbar disc on L4/5 with epidural adhesion. Methods: A two-dimensional nonlinear FE model of the lumbar spine was developed, consi

Abstract:
This study investigates a possibility for representing, interpreting and visualising the vibration response of aircraft panels using time domain measurements. The aircraft panels are modelled as thin orthotropic plates and their vibration response is simulated using FE modelling. The vibration response of a thin aluminium panel is simulated using FE modelling. The first ten resonant frequencies are estimated for the FE model and for the dynamically tested panel. They were found to show somewhat low sensitivity to damage. Then the simulated vibration response of the panel is transformed and exp

Abstract:
This paper studied numerically the behavior of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) confined bundle reinforced concrete (BRC) columns subjected to repeated impact load. To verify the numerical models with previous experimental tests, Abaqus/Explicit based nonlinear finite element (FE) model was developed. Based on the proposed FE analysis, a parametric study was conducted to investigate the effects of different factors such as CFRP confinement, eccentric axial load, bundle reinforcement arrangement, and column height on repeated impact capacity of RC column.

In the paper double-cone seal of ammonia converter is analyzed by means of the finite element method. The contact nonlinear FEM is adopted to simulate the process of double-cone seal in the pretension condition and the operation condition. The curve of contact stress versus time is generated based on the simulation. The stress distribution of plat head and seal ring identified that the standard radial clearance design in GB150-2011 is reasonable and can meet the seal requirements. The deformation and stress distribution evaluation of the entire double-cone seal is further conducted. Bolts load
