Critical earthquake response of elastic-plastic structures under near-fault ground motions (Part 2: Forward-directivity input)

open access: yesFrontiers in Built Environment, 2015
The triple impulse input is used as a simplified version of the forward-directivity near-fault ground motion and a closed-form solution of the elastic-plastic response of a structure by this triple input is obtained.

General Dynamic Collapse Criterion for Elastic–Plastic Structures Under Double Impulse as Substitute of Near-Fault Ground Motion

open access: yesFrontiers in Built Environment, 2020
A dynamic collapse criterion for elastic–plastic structures under near-fault ground motions is derived analytically by approximately transforming near-fault ground motions into double impulse and using an energy balance law.

A Workflow to Accelerate Microstructure‐Sensitive Fatigue Life Predictions

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces a workflow to accelerate predictions of microstructure‐sensitive fatigue life. Results from frameworks with varying levels of simplification are benchmarked against published reference results. The analysis reveals a trade‐off between accuracy and model complexity, offering researchers a practical guide for selecting the optimal ...

Critical earthquake response of a SDOF elastic‐perfectly plastic model with viscous damping under double impulse as a substitute for near‐fault ground motion

open access: yesJapan Architectural Review, 2018
The double‐impulse input is introduced as a substitute for the fling‐step near‐fault ground motion, and a closed‐form solution for the approximate elastic‐plastic response of a structure with viscous damping under the “critical double impulse” is derived.

A strategy to formulate data-driven constitutive models from random multiaxial experiments

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
We present a test technique and an accompanying computational framework to obtain data-driven, surrogate constitutive models that capture the response of isotropic, elastic–plastic materials loaded in-plane stress by combined normal and shear stresses ...

Investigation of Laser Ablation and Brush Pre‐Treatments for AlCu Cold Roll Bonding in Oxygen‐Free Conditions

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
It is shown that laser ablation pretreatment under oxygen‐free conditions enables copper–aluminium bonding at significantly lower deformation degrees and improved properties compared to mechanical brushing. Laser ablation further increases interface contact area and induces favourable residual stress states and microstructural compatibility ...

A Numerical–Experimental Approach for Multi‐Matrix Fiber‐Reinforced Plastics Characterization Using Finite Element Model Updating

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A numerical–experimental framework is developed for characterizing multi‐matrix fiber‐reinforced polymers (MM‐FRPs) combining epoxy and polyurethane matrices. Harmonic bending tests are integrated with finite element model updating (FEMU) to simultaneously identify elastic and viscoelastic material parameters.

The in-plane elastic-plastic response of an incompressible, filled hexagonal honeycomb

open access: yesJournal of the Mechanics and Physics of Solids, 2021
Exact solutions are derived for the small-strain, in-plane, elasto-plastic response of a hexagonal honeycomb using slender beam theory; incompressibility of the honeycomb is enforced by filling its voids with an incompressible, inviscid fluid. The honeycomb has sides of equal length, but its inclined struts subtend an angle that can deviate from 120 ...

Additive Gaussian Process Regression for Predictive Design of High‐Performance, Printable Silicones

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A chemistry‐aware design framework for tuning printable polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) for vat photopolymerization (VPP) is developed using additive Gaussian process (GP) modeling. Polymer network mechanics informs variable groupings, feasible formulation constraints, and interaction variables.
