Abstract:
Several authors have proposed methods which use the Taylor–Bishop–Hill theory in order to calculate the yield surface of textured samples of which the O.D.F. is known.The purpose of this paper is to show how these methods can be generalized while keeping the computational effort within reasonable limits. It must be emphasized that the new method produces “true” plane sections of the yield locus instead of so-called “principle strain yield loci.”A theorem that permits the exploitation of the sample symmetry is demonstrated. After a general description of the method, it is explained how the theorem can be used in order to restrict the number of deformation modes that must be considered.The next section discusses how a data bank of Taylor factors can be constructed. The full-constraint Taylor theory as well as the relaxed Taylor theory are considered.In the next section, it is explained how the plane sections through the multidimensional yield locus are generated. A few applications are finally discussed, including a study of the elongation of a torsion sample of which the O.D.F. has been measured.

Abstract:
The Saffman–Taylor instability for yield stress fluids appears in various situations where two solid surfaces initially separated by such a material (paint, puree, concrete, yoghurt, glue, etc.) are moved away from each other. The theoretical treatment of this instability predicts fingering with a finite wavelength at vanishing velocity, and deposited materials behind the front advance, but the validity of this theory has been only partially tested so far. Here, after reviewing the basic results in that field, we propose a new series of experiments in traction to test the ability of this basic theory to predict data. We carried out tests with different initial volumes, distances and yield stresses of materials. It appears that the validity of the proposed instability criterion cannot really be tested under such experimental conditions, but at least we show that it effectively predicts the instability when it is observed. Furthermore, in agreement with the theoretical prediction for the finger size, a master curve is obtained when plotting the finger number as a function of the yield stress times the sample volume divided by the square initial thickness, in wide ranges of these parameters. This in particular shows that this traction test could be used for the estimation of the material yield stress.

Abstract:
A new one-dimensional theory for estimating the dynamic yield strength of materials, based on post-test measurements of Taylor impact specimens, has been developed by the authors. This theory offers the advantage of mathematical simplicity, while requiring only measurements of final specimen length, final undeformed length, and impact velocity as experimental data inputs. It is observed that the theory can accommodate a variety of material constitutive relations while preserving its basic simplicity. In particular, the dynamic material strength on impact, Y, can be directly correlated with impact velocity V through the relation Y = − Y0 − BV2. Here Y0 is the static yield strength and B is a material constant. This relation provides a rate-dependent constitutive law that is potentially useful in situations such as rod penetration, for example.

Full text
Abstract:
The present study is devoted to extending Barlat’s famous yield criteria to tension–compression asymmetry by a novel method originally introduced by Khan, which can decouple the anisotropy and tension–compression asymmetry characteristics. First, Barlat (1987) isotropic yield criterion, which leads to a good approximation of yield loci calculated by the Taylor–Bishop–Hill crystal plasticity model, is extended to include yielding asymmetry. Furthermore, the famous Barlat (1989) anisotropic yield criterion, which can well describe the plastic behavior of face-centered cubic (FCC) metals, is extended to take the different strength effects into account. The proposed anisotropic yield criterion has a simple mathematical form and has only five parameters when used in planar stress states. Compared with existing theories, the new yield criterion has much fewer parameters, which makes it very convenient for practical applications. Furthermore, all coefficients of the criterion can be determined by explicit expressions. The effectiveness and flexibility of the new yield criterion have been verified by applying to different materials. Results show that the proposed theory can describe the plastic anisotropy and yielding asymmetry of metals well and the transformation onset of the shape memory alloy, showing excellent predictive ability and flexibility.

Abstract:
In this paper, we study two families of QBD processes with linear rates: (a) the multiserver retrial queue and its easier relative; and (b) the multiserver M/M/∞ Markov modulated queue. The linear rates imply that the stationary probabilities satisfy a recurrence with linear coefficients; as known from previous work, they yield a"minimal/nondominant" solution of this recurrence, which may be computed numerically by matrix continued-fraction methods. Furthermore, the generating function of the stationary probabilities satisfies a linear differential system with polynomial coefficients, which calls for the venerable but still developing theory of holonomic (or D-finite) linear differential systems. We provide a differential system for our generating function that unifies problems (a) and (b), and we also include some additional features and observe that in at least one particular case we get a special "Okubo-type hypergeometric system", a family that recently spurred considerable interest.The differential system should allow further study of the Taylor coefficients of the expansion of the generating function at three points of interest: (i) the irregular singularity at 0; (ii) the dominant regular singularity, which yields asymptotic series via classic methods like the Frobenius vector expansion; and (iii) the point 1, whose Taylor series coefficients are the factorial moments.

Abstract:
Insurance premiums are calculated using optimal control theory by maximising the terminal wealth of an insurer under a demand law. If the insurer sets a low premium to generate exposure then profits are reduced, whereas a high premium leads to reduced demand. A continuous stochastic model is developed, which generalises the deterministic discrete model of Taylor (1986). An attractive simplification of this model is that existing policyholders should pay the premium rate currently set by the insurer. It is shown that this assumption leads to a bang-bang optimal premium strategy, which cannot be optimal for the insurer in realistic applications. The model is then modified by introducing an accrued premium rate representing the accumulated premium rates received from existing and new customers. Policyholders pay the premium rate in force at the start of their contract and pay this rate for the duration of the policy. It is shown that, for two demand functions, an optimal premium strategy is well-defined and smooth for certain parameter choices. It is shown for a linear demand function that these strategies yield the optimal dynamic premium if the market average premium is lognormally distributed.

Full text
Abstract:
The Taylor–Saffman problem concerns the fingering instability which develops when one liquid displaces another, more viscous, liquid in a porous medium, or equivalently for Newtonian liquids, in a Hele-Shaw cell. Recent experiments with Hele-Shaw cells using non-Newtonian liquids have shown striking qualitative differences in the fingering pattern, which for these systems branches repeatedly in a manner resembling the growth of a fractal. This paper is an attempt to provide the beginnings of a hydrodynamical theory of this instability by repeating the analysis of Taylor & Saffman using a more general constitutive model. In fact two models are considered; the Oldroyd ‘Fluid B’ model which exhibits elasticity but not shear thinning, and the Ostwald–de Waele power-law model with the opposite combination. Of the two, only the Oldroyd model shows qualitatively new effects, in the form of a kind of resonance which can produce sharply increasing (in fact unbounded) growth rates as the relaxation time of the fluid increases. This may be a partial explanation of the observations on polymer solutions; the similar behaviour reported for clay pastes and slurries is not explained by shear-thinning and may involve a finite yield stress, which is not incorporated into either of the models considered here.

Full text
Abstract:
The yield criterion in rate-independent single crystal plasticity is most often defined by the classical Schmid law. However, various experimental studies have shown that the plastic flow of several single crystals (especially with Body Centered Cubic crystallographic structure) often exhibits some non-Schmid effects. The main objective of the current contribution is to study the impact of these non-Schmid effects on the ductility limit of polycrystalline sheet metals. To this end, the Taylor multiscale scheme is used to determine the mechanical behavior of a volume element that is assumed to be representative of the sheet metal. The mechanical behavior of the single crystals is described by a finite strain rate-independent constitutive theory, where some non-Schmid effects are accounted for in the modeling of the plastic flow. The bifurcation theory is coupled with the Taylor multiscale scheme to predict the onset of localized necking in the polycrystalline aggregate. The impact of the considered non-Schmid effects on both the single crystal behavior and the polycrystal behavior is carefully analyzed. It is shown, in particular, that non-Schmid effects tend to precipitate the occurrence of localized necking in polycrystalline aggregates and they slightly influence the orientation of the localization band.

Abstract:
We are witnessing a transition from the traditional to novel processing technologies in the food industry to address the issues regarding energy, environment, food, and water resources. This chapter first introduces the concept of food process intensification based on vortex technologies to all food engineers/researchers. Thereafter, the novel processing methods for starch gelatinization/hydrolysis and heat sterilization based on Taylor–Couette flow are reviewed. In fluid mechanics communities, the Taylor–Couette flow is well-known as a flow between coaxial cylinders with the inner cylinder rotating. Recently, this unique flow has been applied in food processing. In starch processing, enhanced heat transfer through Taylor vortex flow significantly improves gelatinization. In addition, effective and moderate mixing leads to an increase in the reducing sugar yield. In sterilization processing, the enhanced heat transfer also intensifies the thermal destruction of Clostridium botulinum. However, a moderate heat transfer should be ensured because excessive heat transfer also induces thermal destruction of the nutritional components. The Taylor–Couette flow is only an example considered here. There are various flows that intensify the heat/mass transfer and mixing in food processing. It is expected that this chapter will stimulate the development of food processing based on fluid technologies, toward food process intensification.

Abstract:
The first part of the chapter describes Faddeev–Popov's quantization method, nd the resulting Slavnov–Taylor (ST) identities, in a simple context. This construction automatically implies, after introduction of Faddeev–Popov ‘ghost’ fermions, a Becchi–Rouet–Stora–Tyutin (BRST) symmetry, whose properties are derived. The differential operator, of fermionic type, representing the BRST symmetry, with a proper choice of variables, has the form of a cohomology operator, and a simple form in terms of Grassmann coordinates. The second part of the chapter is devoted to the quantization and renormalization of non-Abelian gauge theories. Quantization of gauge theories require a gauge-fixing procedure. Starting from the non-covariant temporal gauge, and using a simple identity, one shows the equivalence with a quantization in a general class of gauges, including relativistic covariant gauges. Adapting the formalism developed in the first part, ST identities, and the corresponding BRST symmetry are derived. However, the explicit form of the BRST symmetry is not stable under renormalization. The BRST symmetry implies a more general, quadratic master equation, also called Zinn-Justin (ZJ) equation, satisfied by the quantized action, equation in which gauge and BRST symmetries are no longer explicit. By contrast, in the case of renormalizable gauges, the ZJ equation is stable under renormalization, and its solution yields the general form of the renormalized gauge action.

Abstract:
Because polar regions may amplify what would be considered small to moderate climate changes at lower latitudes, Weller (1998) proposed that the monitoring of high latitude regions should yield early evidence of global climate change. In addition to the climate changes themselves, the connections between the polar regions and the lower latitudes have recently become of great interest to meteorologists and paleoclimatologists alike. In the southern polar regions, the direct monitoring of important climatic variables has taken place only for the last few decades, largely because of their remoteness. This of course limits the extent to which polar records can be related to low latitude records, even at multiyear to decadal timescales. Climatologists and ecologists are faced with the problem that, even though these high latitude regions may provide important clues to global climatic change, the lengths of available records are relatively short. The McMurdo Dry Valleys Long-Term Ecological Research (MCM LTER) program was established in 1993. This program built on the monitoring begun in the late 1960s by researchers from New Zealand, who collected records of climate, lake level, and stream discharge in the Wright Valley, Antarctica. Griffith Taylor’s field party obtained the first data related to lake level in 1903 as part of Scott’s Discovery expedition. Analysis of the more recent data from the New Zealand Antarctic and MCM LTER programs when compared to the 1903 datum indicates that the first half of the twentieth century was a period of steadily increasing streamflows, followed in the last half of the century by streamflows that have resulted in more slowly increasing or stable lake levels (Bomblies et al. 2001). Thus, meteorological and hydrological records generated by the MCM LTER research team, when coupled with past data and the ecological information currently being obtained, provide the first detailed attempt to understand the connection between ecosystem structure and function and climatic change in this region of Antarctica. In addition, the program helps to fill an important gap in the overall understanding of climatic variability in Antarctica.

Abstract:
As the laser spot size in micro-scale laser shock peening is in the order of magnitude of several microns, the anisotropic response of grains will have a dominant influence on its mechanical behavior of the target material. Furthermore, conventional plasticity theory employed in previous studies needs to be reexamined due to the length scale effect. In the present work, the length scale effects in microscale laser shock peening have been investigated. The crystal lattice rotation underneath the shocked surface was determined via Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD). From these measurements, the geometrically necessary dislocations (GND) density that the material contains has been estimated. The yield strength increment was then calculated from the GND distribution by using Taylor model and integrated into each material point of the FEM simulation. Finite element simulations, based on single crystal plasticity, were performed of the process for both with and without considering the GND hardening and the comparison has been conducted.

Abstract:
Abstract In this study, a computational examination of Taylor bubbles was performed for gas/non-Newtonian fluid two-phase flows developed in a minichannel T-junction mixer with a hydraulic diameter of 1 mm. The investigations employed three separate aqueous xanthan gum solutions at concentrations of 0.05, 0.1 and 0.15 w/w, which are referred to as non-Newtonian (yield power-law) fluids. The effective concentration of the xanthan gum solutions and superficial velocity of the inlet liquid phase on the length, velocity, and shape of the Taylor bubbles was studied using the ANSYS FLUENT 19 software package. The simulation results show an increase in bubble velocity with increasing film thickness, particularly in solutions of higher viscosity XG-0.15%. Furthermore, bubble lengths decreased as the xanthan gum concentrations increased, but bubble shapes underwent alterations when the concentrations increased. Another interesting result of the tests shows that when the liquid inlet velocity increases, bubble lengths decrease during lower liquid superficial velocity, whereas during higher velocities, they change only slightly after increases in concentration. Finally, with increasing XG concentration, the liquid film thickness around the bubble increased. The results show good agreement with correlations after modifying a capillary number (Ca*) for non-Newtonian liquids in all cases.

Abstract:
Abstract Barriers to output control of manipulators, both in the interior and at the boundary of accessible output sets, are analyzed using first and second order Taylor approximations of the output in selected directions as functions of manipulator input. The formulation is valid for both planar and spatial manipulators, with open chain and closed loop structures, and accounts for the effects of unilateral constraints on the range of admissible control inputs. Criteria defining curves and surfaces associated with singular output control of manipulators are extended to define normals to such curves and surfaces. It is shown that output velocity in the direction normal to such curves and surfaces must be zero, so they arc barriers to velocity control in the associated manipulator configuration. Second order Taylor expansion of normal output with respect to input parameters yields quantitative information regarding barriers to output position control. Definiteness properties of the resulting quadratic approximation define directions of admissible and inadmissible outputs. Algorithms for automatically computing the associated quadratic forms and eigenvalues that determine their definiteness properties are presented and illustrated using planar examples.

Abstract:
Free surface liquid metal targets are considered in several high power targets as a tool to produce secondary particles, since their power density exceeds material sustainable limits. Many target designs consider due to the high power deposited in the liquid a concave formed back plate in order to yield a higher boiling point. Upstream the free surface target domain the liquid metal flow is conditioned by a nozzle. However, a back-wall curvature as well as a concave shaped exit nozzle contour can lead to the occurrence of secondary motions in the flow caused by Taylor-Go¨rtler (TG) instabilities. These motions may impact the hydrodynamic stability the flow and also lead to an undesired heat transfer from the hottest region produced within the liquid target towards the uncooled back plate. In this study, the suitability of the Large Eddy Simulation (LES) technique to simulate the formation, development and destruction TG instabilities in transitional and turbulent boundary layers was tested by comparing the simulation results with experimental data reported in literature. All comparisons exhibit a qualitative and quantitative good agreement between experimental data and numerical predictions regarding the mean flow parameters and unsteady large-scale structures caused by TG instabilities.

Abstract:
New nuclear power reactor designs will require resistance to a variety of possible malevolent attacks as well as traditional dynamic accident scenarios. The design/analysis team may be faced with a broad range of phenomena including air and ground blasts, high-velocity penetrators or shaped charges, and vehicle or aircraft impacts. With a host of software tools available to address these high-energy events, the analysis team must evaluate and select the software most appropriate for their particular set of problems. The accuracy of the selected software should then be validated with respect to the phenomena governing the interaction of the threat and structure. Several software codes are available for the study of blast, impact, and other shock phenomena. At the Idaho National Laboratory (INL), a study is underway to investigate the comparative characteristics of a group of shock and high-strain rate physics codes including ABAQUS, LS-DYNA, CTH, ALEGRA, ALE3D, AUTODYN, and RADIOSS. In part I of this report published in 2007, a series of five benchmark problems to exercise some important capabilities of the subject software was identified. The benchmark problems selected are a Taylor cylinder test, a split Hopkinson pressure bar test, a free air blast, the dynamic splitting tension (Brazilian) test, and projectile penetration of a concrete slab. Part II — this paper — reports the results of two of the benchmark problems: the Taylor cylinder and the dynamic Brazilian test. The Taylor cylinder test is a method to determine the dynamic yield properties of materials. The test specimen is a right circular cylinder which is impacted against a theoretically rigid target. The cylinder deforms upon impact, with the final shape depending upon the specimen density, the impact velocity, and the dynamic yield stress, in turn a function of strain and strain rate. The splitting tension test, or Brazilian test, is a method to measure the tensile strength of concrete using a cylindrical specimen. The specimen is loaded diametrically in compression, producing a fracture at the center of the specimen that propagates toward the loading points until the cylinder is split. To generate a dynamic load, different methods such as a drop-weight or a split Hopkinson pressure bar are employed. The Taylor anvil and dynamic Brazilian test analyses are presented, including discussion of the analysis approach for each of the five subject software packages and two vendor submittals; comparison of results both among the codes and to physical test results; and conclusions as to the applicability of the subject codes to these two problems. Studies of the remaining three benchmark problems and overall conclusions will be presented in future publications.

Abstract:
Abstract Various models exist of the 2D impact of a molten thermal spray particle onto a flat solid surface. Such models, however, cannot be used to examine 3D effects such as the asymmetric splashing and breakup which are common under thermal spray conditions. The focus of the present work is on such effects. A 3D model of droplet impact has been developed which predicts splashing and the subsequent formation of small satellite droplets. The model is a 3D version of RIPPLE (LA12007- MS), an Eulerian fixed-grid finite volume code utilizing a volume tracking algorithm to track the droplet free surface. Simulations are presented of the impact and splashing of a molten tin droplet, and the results compared with photographs. A simple model, based on Rayleigh-Taylor instability theory, yields an estimate of the number of satellite droplets which form during impact. Finally, a simulation of droplet impact under thermal spray conditions demonstrates breakup, although in the form of a corona which separates from the bulk of the fluid.

Abstract:
This paper presents an improved analytical model for the unbonded flexible pipe stress analysis with consideration of nonlinear material properties for metal layers. Analytical methods have often been used to analyse the stress and strain of flexible pipe systems because of their low cost and efficiency compared with detailed finite element modeling. Most of these kinds of models only consider the deformation of pipes within the elastic region. Such linear models can not be used directly to assess pipe failure modes such as the pipe burst strength, where the nonlinearity of the metallic material plays an important role in governing the pipe deformation and pipe structural capacity. The improved analytical model presented in this paper has fully considered the nonlinearity of metal layers such as the pressure armour and tensile armour layers because of their importance in resisting internal pressure and tension loads. Non-associative elasto-plastic stress strain curves obtained from experiments are used to simulate the metal layers. Von Mises stress is adopted in the model as the yield criterion of the metal layers. Radial return method (Simo and Taylor 1985 [1], Simo and Hughes 1998 [2]) is used to solve the plastic stress and strain of metal layers beyond the yield point. Due to its high nonlinearity from both system equations and material properties, Newton-Raphson method is adopted in the model as the solving method. The proposed study here considers tension, torque and pressure loads only for a straight pipe. The model predictions have been compared against measurements from Wellstream burst tests and failure tension tests performed over the full scale pipe samples. The prediction and experiment results agree.

The position of the centroid line of the beam is integrated from its slope that is related to the rotation of a corresponding cross-section and stretch and shear strains. The rotation is parametrized by a rotation vector, which has a clear and intuitive physical meaning. Taylor polynomials are used for certain terms that have zero denominators to avoid singularity in numerical implementation. Governing equations of the beam are obtained using Lagrange’s equations for systems with constraints, and several benchmark problems are simulated to show the performance of the current formulation. Results show that the current formulation do not suffer from shear and Poisson locking problems that the absolute nodal coordinate formulation can have. Results from the current formulation for a planar static case are compared with its exact solutions, and they are in excellent agreement with each other, which verifies accuracy of the current formulation. Results from the current formulation are compared with those from commercial software ABAQUS and RecurDyn, and they are in good agreement with each other; the current formulation uses much fewer numbers of elements to yield converged results.

Abstract:
Abstract The most common viscosity models used in the drilling industry are the Bingham, the Power-Law and the Herschel-Bulkley models. In addition, it is common to refer to the low-shear yield-point. The scope of the present paper is to discuss numerical methods applicable for calculating annular frictional pressure losses. The topic of annular frictional pressure loss modelling has been treated in textbooks. None of these couple their models with the selection of viscosity data from measurements at the relevant shear rates. It is earlier shown how rotation of the inner string in an annulus can complicate the flow due to establishment of Taylor vortices. There are currently no analytical methods to handle such flow. The effect of the vortices depends strongly on the fluid’s composition in addition to the flow conditions. The practical way to handle these situations are by “fingerprinting” during circulation. In the paper examples will be presented showing how the Herschel-Bulkley fluid can be transferred to simple models for axial flow in an annulus where the inner cylinder does not rotate. It is common to use the narrow slot approximation. This method was used by Founargiotakis et al. In this paper both the modified Herschel-Bulkley model with dimensionless shear rates and the traditional model where the consistency depends on the shear rate will be presented. The dimensionless shear rate model can easily be translated back to the traditional form and vice-versa. Mathematical models will be presented. Hence a framework is given that is easier to use for digitalization and automation and in correlations including pressure, temperature and composition.
