This method is an extension of the classical Prony's method which decomposes a complicated signal into a number of complex exponential components. Because the proposed method processes multiple signals simultaneously, it can estimate the “global” dominating frequencies(poles) shared by those signals.The complex amplitude(residues) corresponding to the estimated frequencies for those signals is also obtained in the process. As the signals were collected at different locations along the axial direction of a marine riser, the phenomena of the stress wave propagation could be analyzed through the obtained residues of those signals. The Norwegian Deepwater Program(NDP) high mode test data were utilized in the numerical studies, including data sets in both the in-line(IL) and cross-flow(CF) directions. It was found that the most dominant component in the IL direction has its stress wave propagation along the riser being dominated by a standing wave, while that in the CF direction dominated by a traveling wave.展开更多

How to test its validity is of great importance and has been extensively studied by the literature. Nevertheless, all of the existing methods focus on the case that data are fully observed, but none of them seems having taken into account of the scenario when missing data are present. Motivated by this, this paper develops two testing statistics to handle such a situation relying on the idea of inverse probability weighted and augmented inverse probability weighted techniques. The asymptotic distributions of the proposed statistics are also derived under the null hypothesis. The simulation studies indicate that both testing statistics perform well in terms of size and power.展开更多

The simulated results are in good agreement with the residual stress for the plate test using the actual welding parameters. Furthermore, characteristics of residual stress could be investigated in detail in several aspects, such as the welding structures, the welding sequences, the time intervals, preheating, and repair weld. The intermittent welding may be more convenient and advantageous for the practical applications to reduce the stress, and the local repair welding may cause more stress within the repairing region obviously.展开更多

Therefore, the rolling process of GH4169 alloy sheet at room temperature was investigated by finite element method. The effects of rolling reduction, friction coefficient, rolling velocity and initial stress on the longitudinal residual stress distribution over the thickness of GH4169 alloy sheet were analyzed. The results show that the values of longitudinal residual stress can be slightly reduced by increasing the rolling reduction and velocity. The longitudinal residual stress over the thickness distributes as ‘‘V'' type or weak ‘‘W'' type. The initial stress mainly has an effect on the longitudinal stress in the backward slip area. But the friction coefficient has remarkable influence on longitudinal residual stress. With the friction coefficient increasing from 0.1 to 0.5, the value of longitudinal residual stress on the sheet surface is reduced by 282 MPa. Simultaneously, the tensile stress turns into compressive stress with a strong‘‘W'' type distribution.展开更多
