Numerical modelling of fatigue crack initiation and growth of martensitic steels
2010
This paper presents a numerical simulation of micro-crack initiation that is based on Tanaka-Mura micro-crack nucleation model. Three improvements were added to this model. First, multiple slip bands where micro-cracks may occur are used in each grain. Second improvement deals with micro-crack coalescence by extending existing micro-cracks along grain boundaries and connecting them into a macro-crack. The third improvement handles segmented micro-crack generation, where a micro-crack is not nucleated in one step like in Tanaka-Mura model, but is instead generated in multiple steps. High cycle fatigue testing was also performed and showed reasonably good correlation of proposed model to expe…
Molecular Dynamics Study of Copper and Aluminum under Mechanical Strain
1998
AbstractMechanical properties of copper and aluminum have been studied using finite temperature molecular dynamics simulations. Atomic interactions have been described by a many-atom effective medium potential, which takes into account interactions up to third neighbors. The computed elastic constants showed good agreement with experimental data. Encouraged by these results the model was applied to study fracture in copper. Systems with a grain boundary and an initial cut serving as a crack seed have been studied. In the first case, crack nucleation and propagation took place exclusively at the grain boundary. In the second case, dislocation propagation was observed in one of the <110>…
Varieties of algebras with pseudoinvolution: Codimensions, cocharacters and colengths
2022
Abstract Let A be a finitely generated superalgebra with pseudoinvolution ⁎ over an algebraically closed field F of characteristic zero. In this paper we develop a theory of polynomial identities for this kind of algebras . In particular, we shall consider three sequences that can be attached to Id ⁎ ( A ) , the T 2 ⁎ -ideal of identities of A: the sequence of ⁎-codimensions c n ⁎ ( A ) , the sequence of ⁎-cocharacter χ 〈 n 〉 ⁎ ( A ) and the ⁎-colength sequence l n ⁎ ( A ) . Our purpose is threefold. First we shall prove that the ⁎-codimension sequence is eventually non-decreasing, i.e., c n ⁎ ( A ) ≤ c n + 1 ⁎ ( A ) , for n large enough. Secondly, we study superalgebras with pseudoinvoluti…
Collocation Method for Linear BVPs via B-spline Based Fuzzy Transform
2018
The paper is devoted to an application of a modified F-transform technique based on B-splines in solving linear boundary value problems via the collocation method. An approximate solution is sought as a composite F-transform of a discrete function (which allows the solution to be compactly stored as the values of this discrete function). We demonstrate the effectiveness of the described technique with numerical examples, compare it with other methods and propose theoretical results on the order of approximation when the fuzzy partition is based on cubic B-splines.
A comparison analysis between unsymmetric and symmetric radial basis function collocation methods for the numerical solution of partial differential …
2002
Abstract In this article, we present a thorough numerical comparison between unsymmetric and symmetric radial basis function collocation methods for the numerical solution of boundary value problems for partial differential equations. A series of test examples was solved with these two schemes, different problems with different type of governing equations, and boundary conditions. Particular emphasis was paid to the ability of these schemes to solve the steady-state convection-diffusion equation at high values of the Peclet number. From the examples tested in this work, it was observed that the system of algebraic equations obtained with the symmetric method was in general simpler to solve …
THE ZONE MODULUS OF A LINK
2005
In this paper, we construct a conformally invariant functional for two-component links called the zone modulus of the link. Its main property is to give a sufficient condition for a link to be split. The zone modulus is a positive number, and its lower bound is 1. To construct a link with modulus arbitrarily close to 1, it is sufficient to consider two small disjoint spheres each one far from the other and then to construct a link by taking a circle enclosed in each sphere. Such a link is a split link. The situation is different when the link is non-split: we will prove that the modulus of a non-split link is greater than [Formula: see text]. This value of the modulus is realized by a spec…
Zur Existenz von Lösungen gewisser Randwertaufgaben
1971
With the aid of some known results about integral equations of the Hammerstein type there is proofed an existence theorem for the following class of boundary value problems−y″−l 2 y′=f(x,y),y(a)=y(b)=0,l 2>0 mit|f(x, y)|=0,l 3 (x)>0. The existence range is determined by the greatest eigenvalue of some linear problem.

Reduction of a Non—Linear Parabolic Initial—Boundary Value Problem to Cauchy Problem for a System of ODEs
2004
We consider the boundary value problem for a parabolic equation in the form $$\frac{{\partial {\text{u}}}}{{\partial t}} = \frac{1}{{p(x)}}\frac{\partial }{{\partial x}}\left( {p(x)f'(u)\frac{{\partial u}}{{\partial x}}} \right) + F(u),x \in (0,l),t0,$$ (1) $$u(0,x) = {u_0}(x),$$ (2) $$\frac{{\partial u}}{{\partial x}}{|_{x = 0}} = {f_1}\left( {{u_1}} \right),$$ (3) $$\frac{{\partial u}}{{\partial x}}{|_{x = 1}} = {f_2}\left( {{u_2}} \right),$$ (4) where u = u(t,x) is the unknown function, f 1, f 2, F, f are nonlinear functions and f′ (u) > 0, $${u_1} = {u_1}\left( t \right) \equiv u\left( {t,0} \right),{u_2} = {u_2}(t) \equiv u\left( {t,l} \right),f'\left( u \right) \equiv df(u)/du,p(x) \g…
