On shakedown and ratchetting of conforming frictional systems

Shakedown and ratchetting under tension–torsion loadings: analysis and experiments

Structural design analyses are conducted with the aim of verifying the exclusion of ratchetting. To this end it is important to make a clear distinction between the shakedown range and the ratchetting range. The performed experiment comprised a hollow tension specimen which was subjected to alternating axial forces, superimposed with constant moments. First, a series of uniaxial tests has been ...

Shakedown in frictional contact problems for the continuum

Elastic systems with frictional interfaces subjected to periodic loading are often found to ‘shake down’ in the sense that frictional slip ceases after the first few loading cycles. The similarities in behaviour between such systems and monolithic bodies with elastic– plastic constitutive behaviour have prompted various authors to speculate that Melan’s theorem might apply to them—i.e. that the...

Shakedown of Cohesive-frictional Non-homogeneous Soils under Moving Surface Loads

ABSTRACT: In this paper, shakedown limits of non-homogeneous soils in a half-space under rolling and sliding surface loads are investigated. The inhomogeneity of the soil is described by a power law for the variation of Young’s modulus with the depth. Mohr-Coulomb criterion is employed to characterise the cohesive-frictional behaviour of the soil. Analytical solutions to the elastic stress fiel...

effect of seed priming and irrigation regimes on yield,yield components and quality of safflowers cultivars

این مطالعه در سال 1386-87 در آزمایشگاه و مزرعه پژوهشی دانشگاه صنعتی اصفهان به منظور تعیین مناسب ترین تیمار بذری و ارزیابی اثر پرایمینگ بر روی سه رقم گلرنگ تحت سه رژیم آبیاری انجام گرفت. برخی از مطالعات اثرات سودمند پرایمینگ بذر را بر روی گیاهان مختلف بررسی کرده اند اما در حال حاضر اطلاعات کمی در مورد خصوصیات مربوط به جوانه زنی، مراحل نموی، عملکرد و خصوصیات کمی و کیفی بذور تیمار شده ژنوتیپ های م...
