选择性激光熔融法制造的拉伸和压缩加载条件下晶格结构的生成设计和力学性能
In this study, the generative design method was adopted to propose new modified lattice structures, which are suitable for tensile and compressive loading conditions. The effects of constraint stress and load magnitude on the lattice structure were analyzed. The inclined beams of body-centered cubic (BCC) were replaced with two parallel or crossed struts to improve the lattices' manufacture ability, obtaining three levels of self-supporting derived structures. Samples of AlSi10Mg material were successfully fabricated by selective laser melting (SLM) technology and the surface morphology was observed under the scanning electron microscope (SEM). The mechanical properties and energy absorption capability of the lattices were investigated by quasi-static compressive testing. Finite element (FE) models were also developed, which were in good accordance with the experiment results. Results indicated that the derived structures perform better load-bearing capacity and energy absorption compared with the original body-centered cubic without (BCC) and with z-struts (BCCZ), and the parallel body-centered cubic with horizontal struts and z-struts (P-BCCXYZ) shows the best. In addition, the effects of shape parameters on elastic modulus and yield strength were also discussed. The proposed lattices are expected to be widely used for components subjected to tensile and compressive loads, such as supporting, guarding, and connecting parts.

多部分粘弹性壳体结构的混合 MITC 和界面壳体元素配方
This study presents a novel approach for constitutive modeling of multi-part viscoelastic shell structures using a combination formulation of mixed MITC (MITC3 and MITC4) and interface shell elements with reduced computational cost. It focuses on accurate viscoelastic analysis, considering the time-dependent behavior of the multi-part shell structures. The use of the Laplace transform simplifies the integral-form constitutive equation, enabling efficient and accurate viscoelastic analysis. Moreover, by combining the advantages of MITC shell elements and interface shell elements, this approach comprehensively represents multi-part shell structures with non-matching interfaces. Hence, it allows the meshing of each component part independently when assembled. Furthermore, these methods also provide better resistance to shear and membrane locking, which can be problematic when modeling thin shell structures. In numerical examples, to validate the accuracy of the current study, we meticulously analyze multi-part shell models such as an elastic U-shaped beam and the viscoelastic propeller subjected to creep bending loads. This research contributes to improving the design and performance of shell structures in various engineering fields.

横向压缩和冲击载荷下多层格网加固双支撑复合材料圆柱体的破碎行为
This paper reports on the crushing behavior of several novel multi-layer lattice-web reinforced double-braced composite cylinders composed of glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) face sheets, GFRP lattice webs, polyurethane (PU) foam core and steel bars. A series of quasi-static lateral compression and low-velocity impact experiments were carried out to investigate the feasibility of the proposed cylinders. All the experimental specimens were manufactured using a vacuum assisted resin infusion process (VARIP) method. The bearing capacity and energy absorption performance of the composite cylinders can be significantly improved with the enhancement of multi-layer lattice-web layout and use of bracing. Among the proposed three types of lattice-web layouts, the double-layer dislocated lattice-web layout made the composite cylinder exhibit the greatest specific energy absorption (SEA) performance and good impact resistance property and can be chosen as an optimal configuration. Furthermore, numerical models were established using LS-DYNA software to simulate the large deformation of the composite cylinders with double-layer dislocated lattice-web layout. Based on the numerical models, parametric analysis was carried out to discuss the effects of various parameters on the crushing behavior of the composite cylinders. The bearing capacity and impact resistance property can be generally improved with the increase of GFRP thickness or radial lattice-web height. Additionally, using stronger foam material or smaller inclination of bracing can increase the absorbed energy in PU foam but the GFRP material always makes an essential contribution to the energy absorption of the composite cylinders.

磁化弹性板在时变磁势作用下的谐波共振和分岔奇异性分析
This paper deals with the superharmonic resonance of a ferromagnetic thin rectangular plate in the air-gap magnetic field excited by armature magnetic potential. Electromagnetic forces applied on the plate by the air-gap magnetic field cause the plate to transversal vibrate, which affects the air-gap magnetic field in turn, resulting the vibration and magnetic field coupling. According to the basic electromagnetic field theory and considering the magnetoelastic coupling effect, the air-gap magnetic field intensity is obtained by solving the Laplace's equation satisfied the air-gap magnetic boundary conditions. The electromagnetic force model of soft ferromagnetic plates is determined based on theories of electromagnetic and elasticity. According to the large deflection theory of plates, basic energy relationships and variational equations of the elastic plate are given. Eventually, the nonlinear magnetoelastic vibration equation of ferromagnetic thin plates is derived using Hamilton's principle and Galerkin method. The multi-scale method is used to solve the superharmonic resonance to obtain the amplitude-frequency response equation and the stability discriminant of solutions. The topological analysis of amplitude-frequency equation is carried out using singularity theory, and the bifurcation characteristics of systems on physical parameter planes in different regions are obtained according to the transition set. The correctness of analytical solutions is verified by comparison with numerical solutions. Through numerical calculations, curves of the static deflection and equivalent magnetic force of plate with parameters are given, and the amplitude curves, dynamic phase plane trajectories and time history diagrams of system response with changes in electromagnetic and structural parameters are plotted. Results show that both the decrease of armature magnetic potential amplitude and the increases of plate thickness and initial air-gap thickness reduce the static deflection. The increase of armature magnetic potential amplitude increases the equivalent magnetic force. As the decrease of initial air-gap thickness and the increases of armature magnetic potential amplitude and excitation force amplitude, the amplitudes of the upper branch and lower branch curves representing stable solutions decrease and increase, respectively, and the single-value solution region increases.
Kerfing or relief cutting is a fabrication approach to create moldable surfaces out of wood and metal panels. The kerf panels with pre-defined microstructural topology enable the creation of freeform kerf structures of complex geometries, which found many applications in building constructions. This study investigates the influence of inelastic materials, i.e., plastic deformation of stainless steel and viscoelastic wood, and microstructural topology on the overall moldability of kerf panels. Kerf unit cells fabricated from stainless steel (SS) and medium-density fiber (MDF) with different cut patterns, cut densities, and cell sizes are first studied. Experimental tests and mathematical models are used to examine the deformations of the kerf unit cells. Kerf panels of various microstructural topology, which depends on the cut patterns, cut densities, cell sizes, and cell arrangements, are then modeled to create freeform shapes. The effect of inelastic deformations, i.e., shape reconfiguration due to creep of MDF and utilizing inelastic deformations of SS to form the freeform shapes, are studied. When only an elastic deformation is considered, increasing the flexibility in kerf panels by increasing cut densities enables easy shape configurations. However, when a plastic deformation is utilized to form the shape, flexible kerf structures are less effective due to the relatively small stresses in the flexible kerf structures. Flexible kerf structures can experience significant creep deformations, inducing nonnegligible shape reconfigurations. To avoid shape reconfigurations due to the creep effect when using viscoelastic wood, one approach is to consider developable surfaces.
切口或浮雕切割是一种在木板和金属板上制造可成型表面的制造方法。具有预定义微结构拓扑的切口板能够创建复杂几何形状的自由形态切口结构,在建筑施工中得到广泛应用。本研究探讨了非弹性材料(即不锈钢和粘弹性木材的塑性变形)和微结构拓扑对切口板整体成型性的影响。首先研究了由不锈钢(SS)和中密度纤维(MDF)制成的具有不同切割模式、切割密度和单元尺寸的切口单元。实验测试和数学模型用于研究切口单元的变形。然后,根据切割模式、切割密度、单元尺寸和单元排列,对不同微结构拓扑的切口面板进行建模,以创建自由形状。研究了非弹性变形的影响,即中密度纤维板蠕变导致的形状重构,以及利用 SS 的非弹性变形形成自由形状。在只考虑弹性变形的情况下,通过增加切割密度来提高切口面板的柔韧性,可以轻松实现形状配置。然而,当利用塑性变形形成形状时,由于柔性切口结构中的应力相对较小,柔性切口结构的效果较差。柔性切口结构可能会发生显著的蠕变变形,从而导致不可忽略的形状重构。在使用粘弹性木材时,为避免蠕变效应导致的形状重构,一种方法是考虑可展开表面。

用离散里兹法分析带有任意切口的任意形状板材的屈曲问题
To overcome the difficulties of the Ritz method when dealing with complex geometric domain problem, a novel general numerical approach, discrete Ritz method (DRM), is proposed for buckling analysis of arbitrarily shaped plates with arbitrary cutouts. Accounting for a variety of boundary conditions, Legendre polynomials are adopted to construct the admissible function. By using the global trial function with variable stiffness properties within a virtual rectangular design domain, the deformation of any shape perforated plates can be captured with the help of numerical integration using Gauss quadrature. The shapes and cutouts of plates are both numerically simulated by using cutouts, where the stiffness is assigned zero within the cutouts in the virtual rectangular domain. Moreover, boundary conditions and load potential can be applied to any contour of the plate. Based on the above formulation, standard energy functionals and computation procedures are established to extract the buckling eigenvalues and mode shapes. Various shape plates with arbitrarily shaped cutouts are investigated. Under several boundary conditions, multiple inplane loads are applied, and the results are compared with those obtained by other numerical and analytical methods in the literature. Demonstrating the stability and accuracy of the DRM.
