Investigating UF is important in both hard rock drilling and oil and gas recovery. A three-dimensional internal laser-engraved crack(3D-ILC) method was introduced to prefabricate two parallel internal cracks within the samples without any damage to the surface. The samples were subjected to UF. The mechanism of UF was elucidated by analyzing the characteristics of fracture surfaces. The crack propagation path under different ultrasonic parameters was obtained by numerical simulation based on the Paris fatigue model and compared to the experimental results of UF. The results show that the 3D-ILC method is a powerful tool for UF research.Under the action of an ultrasonic field, the fracture surface shows the characteristics of beach marks and contains powder locally, indicating that the UF mechanism includes high-cycle fatigue fracture, shear and friction, and temperature load. The two internal cracks become close under UF. The numerical result obtained by the Paris fatigue model also shows the attraction of the two cracks, consistent with the test results. The 3D-ILC method provides a new tool for the experimental study of UF. Compared to the conventional numerical methods based on the analysis of stress-strain and plastic zone, numerical simulation can be a good alternative method to obtain the crack path under UF.展开更多

The mechanical,electric and magnetic fields around an elliptical cylinder inclusion are formulated by complex potentials. Inside the inclusion,the strain,electric and magnetic fields are found to be uniform and vary with the shape of the ellipse. When the inclusion is reduced to a crack,along the interface,the strain,electric field strength and magnetic field strength equal the corresponding remote ones,which can be used as the boundary condition. Special cases,such as a rigid and permeable inclusion,a soft and impermeable inclusion,a line inclusion and a crack problem are discussed in detail.展开更多
