Ultimate Longitudinal Strength of Composite Ship Hulls

Xiangming Zhang, Lingkai Huang, Libao Zhu, Yuhang Tang, Anwen Wang (2017)

Curved and Layered Structures

Similarity:

A simple analytical model to estimate the longitudinal strength of ship hulls in composite materials under buckling, material failure and ultimate collapse is presented in this paper. Ship hulls are regarded as assemblies of stiffened panels which idealized as group of plate-stiffener combinations. Ultimate strain of the plate-stiffener combination is predicted under buckling or material failure with composite beam-column theory. The effects of initial imperfection of ship hull and eccentricity...

Adaptive modeling of reliability properties for control and supervision purposes

Kai-Uwe Dettmann, Dirk Söffker (2011)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

Modeling of reliability characteristics typically assumes that components and systems fail if a certain individual damage level is exceeded. Every (mechanical) system damage increases irreversibly due to employed loading and (mechanical) stress, respectively. The main issue of damage estimation is adequate determination of the actual state-of-damage. Several mathematical modeling approaches are known in the literature, focusing on the task of how loading effects damage progression (e.g.,...

Performance assessment on a variety of double side structure during collision interaction with other ship

Aditya Rio Prabowo, Jung Min Sohn, Dong Myung Bae, Joung Hyung Cho (2017)

Curved and Layered Structures

Similarity:

The main goal of the present paper was to study the physical response of a double side skin (DSS) structure under impact load in a collision event between two ships. Collision energy and damage extent (size and location) during the collision process were observed together with damage patterns on side structure. The ships were modeled after a Ro-Ro passenger ship and cargo reefer which were involved in a ship collision on the Sunda Strait while the analyseswere performed using non-linear...

Using normal mode analysis in teaching mathematical modeling to biology students

D. A. Kondrashov (2011)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

Similarity:

Linear oscillators are used for modeling a diverse array of natural systems, for instance acoustics, materials science, and chemical spectroscopy. In this paper I describe simple models of structural interactions in biological molecules, known as elastic network models, as a useful topic for undergraduate biology instruction in mathematical modeling. These models use coupled linear oscillators to model the fluctuations of molecular structures around the equilibrium state. I present many...

Elastic, plastic, fracture analysis of masonry arches: A multi-span bridge case study

Giuseppe Lacidogna, Federico Accornero (2018)

Curved and Layered Structures

Similarity:

In this work a comparison is presented between elastic, plastic, and fracture analysis of the monumental arch bridge of Porta Napoli, Taranto (Italy). By means of a FEM model and applying the Mery’s Method, the behavior of the curved structure under service loads is verified, while considering the Safe Theorem approach byHeyman, the ultimate carrying capacity of the structure is investigated. Moreover, by using Fracture Mechanics concepts, the damage process which takes place when the...

A comprehensive micromechanical model for the analysis of a smart composite piezo-magneto-thermoelastic thin plate with rapidly varying thickness is developed in Part I of thiswork. The asymptotichomogenization model is developed using static equilibrium equations and the quasi-static approximation of Maxwell’s equations. The work culminates in the derivation of general expressions for effective elastic, piezoelectric, piezomagnetic, dielectric permittivity and other coefficients. Among...

Visco-elastic-plastic modelling

Koppová, Jana, Minárová, Mária, Sumec, Jozef

Similarity:

In this paper we deal with the mathematical modelling of rheological models with applications in various engineering disciplines and industry. We study the mechanical response of visco-elasto-plastic materials. We describe the basic rheological elements and focus our attention to the specific model of concrete, for which we derive governing equations and discuss its solution. We provide an application of rheological model involving rigid-plastic element as well - mechanical and mathematical...

Thermodynamics of DNA microarrays

Enrico Carlon (2008)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

DNA microarrays have been widely used in molecular biology laboratories. The main current application of these devices is the determination of the gene expression level for thousands of genes simultaneously. Here we review a recently introduced physical model for hybridization (i.e. the binding of complementary DNA strands) in Affymetrix arrays and compare it to experimental results. The experimental data follow rather well the microscopic model and the approach offers several advantages...

A comprehensive micromechanical model for the analysis of a smart composite piezo-magneto-thermoelastic thin plate with rapidly-varying thickness is developed in the present paper. A rigorous three-dimensional formulation is used as the basis of multiscale asymptotic homogenization. The asymptotic homogenization model is developed using static equilibrium equations and the quasi-static approximation of Maxwell’s equations. The work culminates in the derivation of a set of differential...
