By employing modulus of resilience as the damage hardening variable, a damage variable related with dynamic modulus was extracted as the evaluation index. Then, the damage evolution law under two control modes was proposed, and it has a similar form to the Chaboche fatigue model with a nonnegative material parameter m related to its loading level. Experimental data of four loading levels were employed to calibrate the model and identify the parameter in both control modes. It is found that the parameter m shows an exponential relationship with its loading level. Besides, the difference of damage evolution under two control modes was explained by the law. The damage evolves from fast to slow under a controlled-strain mode. However, under a controlled-stress mode, the evolution rate is just the opposite. By using the damage equivalence principle to calculate the equivalent cycle numbers, the deduced model also interprets the difference of damage evolution under two control modes on the condition of multilevel loading. Under a controlled-strain mode, a loading sequence from a low level to a high level accelerates damage evolution. An inverse order under the controlled-stress mode can prolong fatigue life.展开更多

Permeability test, uni-axial compression test and THM coupling test are conducted to measure the permeability, elastic modulus and THM coupling stress-strain curves of brittle rock. The tested values of THM coupling elastic modulus E'HM are in good agreement with the predicted values of THM coupling elastic modulus ETHM, which can verify the newly established THM coupling damage model.展开更多

The water to binder(W/B) ratio and the concentration of sulfate solution were taken as variable parameters. Through the experiment, visual change, relative dynamic modulus of elasticity(RDME) and the surface damage layer thickness of concrete were measured.Furthermore, SEM and thermal analysis were used to investigate the changing of microstructure and corrosion products of concrete.The test results show that the ultrasonic velocity is related to the damage layer of concrete. It approves that an increase in damage layer thickness reduces the compactness and the ultrasonic velocity. The deterioration degree of concrete could be estimated effectively by measuring the surface damage layer and the RDME of concrete. It is also found that the content of gypsum in concrete is less than that of ettringite in test, and some gypsum is checked only after a certain corrosion extent. When the concrete is with high W/B ratio or exposed to high concentration of sulfate solution, the content of ettringite first increases and then decreases with corrosion time. However, the content of gypsum increases at a steady rate. The content of corrosion products does not correspond well with the observations of RDME change, and extensive amount of corrosion products can be formed before obvious damage occurs.展开更多

However, most of published articles use numerical methods and some studies conduct modal tests with simple 1D or 2D structures to verify the damage detection algorithms. Only a few studies utilize modal testing data from 3D frame structures. Few studies conduct performance comparisons between two different modal strain energy based methods. The objective of this paper is to investigate and compare the effectiveness of a traditional modal strain energy method(Stubbs index) and a recently developed modal strain energy decomposition(MSED) method for damage localization, for such a purpose both simulated and measured data from an offshore platform model being used. Particularly, the mode shapes used in the damage localization are identified and synthesized from only two measurements of one damage scenario because of the limited number of sensors. The two methods were first briefly reviewed. Next, using a 3D offshore platform model, the damage detection algorithms were implemented with different levels of damage severities for both single damage and multiple damage cases. Finally, a physical model of an offshore steel platform was constructed for modal testing and for validating the applicability. Results indicate that the MSED method outperforms the Stubbs index method for structural damage detection.展开更多

文摘Objective To compare the efficacy of Tuina(Chinese therapeutic massage)plus physical agents and physical agents alone for lateral collateral ligament injury of ankle in gymnasts,and to explore the feasibility of Tuina for injury intervention in competitive athletes.Methods A total of 64 gymnasts with types Ⅰ-Ⅱ lateral collateral ligament injury of ankle were selected and divided into a control group and an observation group according to a full analysis set based on the intention-to-treat principle,with 32 cases in each group.Patients in the control group received ultrasound and microwave treatment,while those in the observation group received additional Tuina manipulations.The efficacy was evaluated by total effective rate,visual analog scale(VAS)score,and American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society ankle-hindfoot scale(AOFAS-AHS)score.Results The total effective rate was 96.9% in the observation group and 90.6% in the control group.There was no statistical difference in the total effective rate between the two groups(P>0.05).The markedly effective rate was 75.0% in the observation group and 46.9% in the control group.The markedly effective rate in the observation group was higher than that in the control group(P<0.05).After treatment,the VAS scores of both groups showed a downward trend,and there were statistical differences between different treatment time points in the same group(P<0.05).After one and three months of treatment,the VAS scores of the observation group were lower than those of the control group(P<0.05).There were statistical differences in the AOFAS-AHS score before and after treatment within the same group(P<0.05).After one month of treatment,there was no statistical difference in the AOFAS-AHS score between the two groups(P>0.05).After three months of treatment,the AOFAS-AHS score in the observation group was higher than that in the control group,indicating statistical significance(P<0.05).There was an interaction between time and group(P<0.05).Conclusion Tuina plus physical agents can improve the symptoms of lateral collateral ligament injury of ankle in gymnasts.This combined treatment is superior to physical agents alone in relieving pain and improving joint functions.Therefore,Tuina plus physical agents can be used as a treatment for lateral collateral ligament injury of ankle in gymnasts.
文摘Objective:To observe the efficacy of warm needling moxibustion plus intra-articular injection of sodium hyaluronate for hip involvement in ankylosing spondylitis(AS).Methods:A total of 60 patients with hip involvement in AS were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group,with 30 cases in each group.The patients in the control group were given an intra-articular injection of sodium hyaluronate,once a week.The patients in the observation group were given additional warm needling moxibustion,once a day,with a 2-day interval after five consecutive days of treatment.After 5 weeks,changes in such indicators as visual analog scale(VAS)score,Harris score,Bath ankylosing spondylitis disease activity index(BASDAI),Bath ankylosing spondylitis functional index(BASFI),serum cartilage oligomeric matrix protein(COMP),interleukin(IL)-17 were observed,and the efficacy was evaluated.Six months after treatment,Bath ankylosing spondylitis radiology index-hip(BASRI-hip)was evaluated.Results:After treatment,the total effective rate in the observation group was higher than that in the control group(P<0.05).After treatment,the VAS scores in both groups were lower than those before treatment(P<0.05),and the score of the observation group was lower than that of the control group(P<0.05).After treatment,the Harris scores of both groups were higher than those before treatment(P<0.05),and the score of the observation group was higher than that of the control group(P<0.05).Six months after treatment,the BASRI-hip score of the control group was higher than that before treatment(P<0.05),while the score of the observation group was not significantly different from that before treatment(P>0.05)and was lower than that of the control group(P<0.05).After treatment,the scores of BASDAI and BASFI of both groups were lower than those before treatment(P<0.05),and the scores of the observation group were lower than those of the control group(P<0.05).After treatment,the levels of serum COMP and IL-17 of both groups were lower than those before treatment(P<0.05),and the levels of the observation group were lower than those of the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion:The efficacy of warm needling moxibustion plus intra-articular injection of sodium hyaluronate for hip involvement in AS is better than the intra-articular injection of sodium hyaluronate alone.This combined approach can alleviate hip pain,improve hip functions,delay the destruction of the hip,prevent AS development,and reduce the levels of serum COMP and IL-17.
