The generalized fully plastic constitutive relations and the fully plastic J-integral, as well as its coefficients in polynomial expressions are given. The model obtained is incorporated into a finite element program. The corner cracks at a hole in a plate subjected pure tensions are calculated by the present model. The fully plastic J-integral is then estimated. The results obtained show that the line-spring model is effective for the analysis of corner cracks. The influence of the crack depth and the hardening exponent on the fully plastic J-integral is also discussed.展开更多

This method reduces the three-dimension problem of the surface cracks into a quasi-one-dimension problem and can be used to analyze the surface cracked plate under various loading conditions. In this paper theoretical analyses and numerical verifications are carried out. The calculated results are reported, which indicate that the present method is efficient and can be used to analyze the surface crack problem on a personal computer.展开更多

The method is conjunction with the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory, modal analysis and fracture mechanics principle was applied to derive a characteristic equation for the cracked beam vibration. As application examples, natural frequency responses for a cracked hinged-hinged beam and a cracked cantilever beam were examined. It was shown that the present solutions obtained are quite in agreement with the solutions or experimental results in available references.展开更多

It increases the flexibility of an interactive design environment. In this paper, a method to generate a highlight line model on an arbitrary triangular mesh is presented. Based on the highlight line model, a technique to remove local shape irregularities of a triangular mesh is then presented. The shape modification is done by solving a minimization problem and performing an iterative procedure. The new technique improves not only the shape quality of the mesh surface, but also the shape of the highlight line model. It provides an intuitive and yet suitable method for locally optimizing the shape of a triangular mesh.展开更多
