The rotor blade is discretized using a five-nodes, 15 DOFs beam finiteelement. The dynamic coupling effect between the rigid motion of the blade and the nonlinear elasticdeflections is taken into account. Utilizing the constitutive law of the curvilinear coordinatesystem, the typical moderate deflection beam theory is reformulated. In addition, the Leishman andBeddoes unsteady and dynamic stall model is incorporated and the inflow is evaluated with the freewake analysis. The derived nonlinear ordinary differential equations with time - dependentcoefficients of the rotor blade are given in the sense of the generalized forces. The sectionalloads of the blade and the equations of motion are solved simultaneously in the physical space. Theblade vibratory loads predicted by present analysis show generally fair a-greement with the flighttest data of the SA349/2 Gazelle helicopter.展开更多

Two analytical models and a new method are developed: (1) a higher mode generalized force spectrum (GFS) model of the transmission tower is deduced; (2) an analytical model that includes the contributions of the higher modes is further derived as a rational algebraic formula to estimate the structural displacement response; and (3) a new approach, applying load with displacement (ALD) instead of force, to solve the internal force of transmission tower is given. Unlike conventional methods, the ALD method can avoid calculating equivalent static wind loads (ESWLs). Finally, a transmission tower structure is used as a numerical example to verify the feasibility and accuracy of the ALD method.展开更多

In the present paper, the hydraulic force on the impeller of a model reversible pump turbine is quantitatively investigated through numerical simulations. It is found that both the amplitude of the force and its dominant components strongly depend on the operating conditions(e.g., the turbine mode, the runaway mode and the turbine brake mode) and the guide vane openings. For example, the axial force parallel with the shaft is prominent in the turbine mode while the force perpendicular to the shaft is the dominant near the runaway and the turbine brake modes. The physical origins of the hydraulic force are further revealed by the analysis of the fluid states inside the impeller.展开更多

All of generalized non-overload forces acted on a structure forms a convex set when ignoring the second-order effects (coupling effects between the generalized forces). It is true also when the Hessian matrix composed of the second-order partial derivatives on the hypersurface about the ultimate bearing of the structure is negative definite. The outward convexity is kept when the surface is expressed by certain dimensionless parameters. A series of properties based on the convexity are pointed out. Some applications in the analysis of bearing capacity of structures were illustrated with examples. The study shows that an evaluation about the bearing capacity state of a complex structure can be made on the basis of several points on the surface of the ultimate bearing of the structure.展开更多

In this paper we pre- sent molecular dynamics computer simulation results taken for a mixture of the two different kinds of nematic liq- uid crystals (LCs). We calculated rotational viscosity from Brownian behavior with friction of the mean director of the mixture comprising pentylcyanobiphenol (5CB) and decylcyanobiphenol (10CB) by using molecular dynamics computer simulation, where intermolecular potential parameter is Generalized AMBER force field (GAFF). Our computed results show a good agreement with the experimental results.展开更多
