The Impact

Aiming at the cyclic impact deformation and failure of tunnel surrounding rock under shear stress, a self-developed rotation-impact simulation test platform was used to determine the number of failures, stress-strain curves, and energy in the process of cyclic impact failure. The failure process of rock under different impact velocities and shear stresses has been systematically studied. Results show that, under the same impact speed, the shear stress will increase with the increase in the rotation speed, but an upper limit will exist. When the rotation speed reaches this upper limit, the shear stress will no longer increase. The presence of shear stress will reduce the number of impacts required for rock failure. When the impact speed is 7.2 m/s, the number of impacts at the maximum rotation speed is 60% of the static state. When the impact velocity is 16.8 m/s, this value is only 33.3%. At the same impact velocity, the stress-strain curves under different rotation speeds do not change significantly, but with the increase in the rotation speed, the slope of the elastic stage of the stress-strain curve gradually decreases, and the corresponding stress of the rock sample decreases when the maximum strain is reached. With the increase in shear stress, the crushing specific energy required for rock failure gradually decreases. The greater the impact velocity, the more obvious the impact of shear stress on energy dissipation. In the tunnel process, when the surrounding rock is subjected to impact loads from different directions, only the axial strain analysis will have certain safety hazards, and timely support and reinforcement work are required.

This paper presents a smart passive MR damper with fast-responsive characteristics for impact mitigation. The hybrid powering system of the MR damper, composed of batteries and self-powering component, enables the damping of the MR damper to be negatively proportional to the impact velocity, which is called rate-dependent softening effect. This effect can keep the damping force as the maximum allowable constant force under different impact speed and thus improve the efficiency of the shock energy mitigation. The structure, prototype and working principle of the new MR damper are presented firstly. Then a vibration platform was used to characterize the dynamic property and the self-powering capability of the new MR damper. The impact mitigation performance of the new MR damper was evaluated using a drop hammer and compared with a passive damper. The comparison results demonstrate that the damping force generated by the new MR damper can be constant over a large range of impact velocity while the passive damper cannot. The special characteristics of the new MR damper can improve its energy dissipation efficiency over a wide range of impact speed and keep occupants and mechanical structures safe.

Fabrics are an extremely important element of body armors and other armors. Understanding fabrics requires understanding how yarns deform. Classical theory has shown very good agreement with the deformation of a single yarn when impacted transversely. However, the impact speed at which a yarn breaks based on this classical theory is not correct; it has been experimentally noted that yarns break when impacted at a lower speed. This paper explores the mechanism of yarn breakage. The problem of the transverse strike of a yarn by a flat-faced projectile is analytically solved for early times. It is rigorously demonstrated that when a flat-faced projectile strikes a yarn, the minimum impact speed that breaks the yarn will always be at least 11% less than the classical-theory result. It is further shown that when the yarn in front of the projectile “bounces” off the projectile face due to the impact, the impact speed that breaks the yarn is further reduced. If the yarn bounces elastically off the projectile face at twice the impact velocity (the theoretical maximum), there is a 40% reduction in the projectile impact speed that breaks the yarn.

The propagation of layer-wise crushing bands in cellular materials under dynamic impact can be described by the plastic shock wave model. A cell-based finite element model of irregular aluminum honeycomb is constructed to carry out several constant-velocity compression tests. The shock wave speed is obtained by the one-dimensional stress distribution in the specimen along the loading direction. The relation between the shock wave speed and impact velocity is obtained and analyzed. It is found that the relation tends to be linear with the increase of the impact velocity. But the shock wave speed tends to be a constant value with the decrease of the impact velocity. A piecewise model is proposed to describe the dynamic stress-strain relation of aluminum honeycombs based on a piecewise hypothesis of the relation between the shock wave speed and the impact velocity together with the one-dimensional shock wave theory. Different stress-strain relations corresponding to different impact velocity regions and different deformation modes are obtained.

AbstractWhilst lithopanspermia depends upon massive impacts occurring at a speed above some limit, the intact delivery of organic chemicals or other volatiles to a planet requires the impact speed to be below some other limit such that a significant fraction of that material escapes destruction. Thus the two opposite ends of the impact speed distributions are the regions of interest in the bioastronomical context, whereas much modelling work on impacts delivers, or makes use of, only the mean speed. Here the probability distributions of impact speeds upon Mars are calculated for (i) the orbital distribution of known asteroids; and (ii) the expected distribution of near-parabolic cometary orbits. It is found that cometary impacts are far more likely to eject rocks from Mars (over 99 percent of the cometary impacts are at speeds above 20 km/sec, but at most 5 percent of the asteroidal impacts); paradoxically, the objects impacting at speeds low enough to make organic/volatile survival possible (the asteroids) are those which are depleted in such species.

Abstract We have investigated a relation between micromechanical processes and the stress-strain curve of a dry fiber network during tensile loading. By using a detailed particle-level simulation tool we investigate, among other things, the impact of “non-traditional” bonding parameters, such as compliance of bonding regions, work of separation and the actual number of effective bonds. This is probably the first three-dimensional model which is capable of simulating the fracture process of paper accounting for nonlinearities at the fiber level and bond failures. The failure behavior of the network considered in the study could be changed significantly by relatively small changes in bond strength, as compared to the scatter in bonding data found in the literature. We have identified that compliance of the bonding regions has a significant impact on network strength. By comparing networks with weak and strong bonds, we concluded that large local strains are the precursors of bond failures and not the other way around.

Abstract Introduction Local wall shear stress (WSS) metrics, high local lipid levels (as detected by near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS)), as well as systemic lipid levels, have been individually associated with atherosclerotic disease progression. However, a possible synergistic effect remains to be elucidated. This study is the first study to combine WSS metrics with NIRS-detected local lipid content to investigate a potential synergistic effect on plaque progression in human coronary arteries. Methods The IMPACT study is a prospective, single centre study investigating the relation between atherosclerotic plaque progression and WSS in human coronary arteries. Patients with ACS treated with PCI were included. At baseline and after 1-year follow-up, patients underwent near-infrared spectroscopy intravascular ultrasound (NIRS-IVUS) imaging and intravascular doppler flow measurements of at least one non-culprit coronary artery. After one month, a CT angiography was made. CT derived centreline combined with IVUS lumen contours resulted in a 3D reconstruction of the vessel. The following WSS metrics were computed using computational fluid dynamics applying the vessel specific invasive flow measurements: time-average wall shear stress (TAWSS), relative residence time (RRT), cross-flow index, oscillatory shear index and transverse wall shear stress. Low TAWSS is known as pro atherogenic, in contrast to all the other shear stress metrics, at which a high magnitude is pro-atherogenic. The arteries were divided into 1.5mm/45° sectors. Based on NIRS-IVUS, wall thickness change over time was determined and NIRS positive sectors detected. Furthermore, per vessel the shear stress was divided into tertiles (low, intermediate, high). To investigate the synergistic effect of local lipids on shear stress related plaque growth, wall thickness change over time was related to the different shear stress metrics comparing the NIRS-positive with the NIRS-negative sectors. Results 15 non-culprit coronary arteries from the first 14 patients were analyzed (age 62±10 years old and 92.9% male). A total of 2219 sectors were studied (5.2%, N=130, NIRS-positive) for wall thickness changes. After studying all five shear stress metrics, we found for TAWSS and RRT that presence of lipids, as detected by NIRS, amplified the effect of shear stress on plaque progression (see figure). Sectors presenting with lipid-rich plaque, compared to NIRS-negative sectors, showed more progression when they were exposed to low TAWSS (p=0.07) or high RRT (p=0.012) and more regression in sectors exposed to high TAWSS (p=0.10) or low RRT (p=0.06). Delta wall thickness vs shear stress Conclusion We presented the first preliminary results of the IMPACT study, showing the synergistic effect of lipid rich plaque and shear stress on plaque progression. Therefore, intravascular lipid-rich plaque (NIRS) assessment has added value to shear stress profiling for the prediction of plaque growth, leading to improved risk stratification.

Ring Cracks

The damage behaviors induced in a SiC by a spherical particle impact having a different material and size were investigated. Especially, the influence of the impact velocity of a particle on the cone crack shape developed was mainly discussed. The damage induced by a particle impact was different depending on the material and the size of a particle. The ring cracks on the surface of the specimen were multiplied by increasing the impact velocity of a particle. The steel particle impact produced the larger ring cracks than that of the SiC particle. In the case of the high velocity impact of the SiC particle, the radial cracks were generated due to the inelastic deformation at the impact site. In the case of the larger particle impact, the morphology of the damages developed were similar to the case of the smaller particle one, but a percussion cone was formed from the back surface of the specimen when the impact velocity exceeded a critical value. The zenithal angle of the cone cracks developed into the SiC decreased monotonically as the particle impact velocity increased. The size and material of a particle influenced more or less on the extent of the cone crack shape. An empirical equation was obtained as a function of impact velocity of the particle, based on the quasi-static zenithal angle of the cone crack. This equation will be helpful to the computational simulation of the residual strength in ceramic components damaged by the particle impact.

This paper analyzes the impact of natural random variation of soil properties on the constitutive modelling of geomaterial behaviour. A theoretical framework for accommodating variation in soil properties is presented. The framework is then used to examine the consequence of parameter variability on stress–strain relations. An important observation is that average soil parameters from a series of tests on small specimens, in which density of the specimens varies randomly, do not necessarily reflect the average constitutive behaviour of soil. Model predictions are shown to be consistent with the experimental data.Key words: random variability, deterministic analysis, soil parameters, constitutive model.
