These governing equations, in special cases, can be readily solved and yield the solutions to the problem. The solutions can be used for the analysis of the beams, including the calculation of various internal forces, stresses, strains and displacements. The present theory will be used to investigate the stresses and displacements of a plane curved beam subjected to the action of horizontal and vertical distributed loads. The numerical results obtained by the present theory are found to be in very good agreement with the results of the FEM results. Besides, the present theory is not limited to the beams with a double symmetric cross-section, it can also be extended to those with arbitrary cross-sectional shape.展开更多

Thesphere is assumed to be spherically isotropic with material consta-nts being inhomogeneous along the radial direction. By employing aseparation technique as well as the spherical harmonics expansionmethod, the governing equations are simplified to an uncoupledsecond-order ordinary differential equation, and a coupled system oftwo such equations. Solutions to these equations are given when theelastic constants and the mass density are power functions of theradial coordinate. Numerical examples are finally given to show theeffect of the material gradient on the natural frequencies.展开更多

It was assumed that the interfacial debonding induced an electrically impermeable crack at the interface. The principle of conformal transformation and analytical continuation were employed to reduce the formulation into two Riemann-Hilbert problems. This enabled the determination of the complex potentials in the inhomogeneity and the matrix by means of series of expressions. The resulting solution was then used to obtain the electroelastic fields and the energy release rate involving the debonding at the inhomogeneity-matrix interface. The validity and versatility of the current general solution have been demonstrated through some specific examples such as the problems of perfectly bonded elliptic inhomogeneity, totally debonded elliptic inhomogeneity, partially debonded rigid and conducting elliptic inhomogeneity, and partially debonded circular inhomogeneity.展开更多

One of them was a discrete model by a two-dimensional mean map applied to describe random stick-slip motion. The numerical examples show, that external noise can reduce the complexity of the system behavior. Secondly, a probability model described was established with coexistence of stick-slip and slip motions. The numerical results point out that this model possesses pure stochastic behavior.展开更多
