The deformation of a thick-walled cylinder under pressure is a classic elastic mechanics problem with various engineering applications. In this study, the displacement of a viscoelastic thick-walled cylinder under internal pressure is investigated via analytical as well as numerical modelling. The fractional Maxwell model is initially introduced to describe the creep deformation of high-strength Q460 steel. Subsequently, an analytical solution to the creep deformation of the thick-walled cylinder under both internal and external pressures is deduced with the corresponding principle. The analytical solution is examined with a numerical simulation that incorporates the fractional Maxwell model by a user-defined subroutine. The numerical simulation agrees well with the analytical solution. The limitations of the current study are also discussed.

In order to research the stability bearing capacity of high strength pole and tower compression members, analytical method and numerical simulation method were used to study stability on high strength axial compression members. Researched the impact of different slenderness ratio, different cross-section factors on the bearing capacity; energy relationship was using in analytical method, the boundary conditions issue is simplified according to different end restraint capacity; the failure modes and stability bearing capacity of members were studied by numerical simulation. Compared with the experimental results show that the numerical simulation and elastic theory analytical solution overestimate the capacity of members, but the numerical results have better agreement than the elastic theory analytical solution, which can show the numerical simulation method is right. Experiment method can obtain more secure mechanical behavior of high-strength angle steel member with axial loading.

Summary This paper presents an example of humid air flow around a single head of Chinese cabbage under conditions of complex heat transfer. This kind of numerical simulation allows us to create a heat and humidity transfer model between the Chinese cabbage and the flowing humid air. The calculations utilize the heat transfer model in porous medium, which includes the temperature difference between the solid (vegetable tissue) and fluid (air) phases of the porous medium. Modelling and calculations were performed in ANSYS Fluent 14.5 software.

<p>Landslide-generated waves have been major threats to coastal areas and have led to destruction and casualties. Their importance is undisputed, most recently demonstrated by the 2018 Anak Krakatau tsunami, causing several hundred fatalities. The accurate prediction of the maximum initial amplitude of landslide waves (<em>η<sub>max</sub></em>) around the source region is a vital hazard indicator for coastal impact assessment. Laboratory experiments, analytical solutions and numerical modelling are three major methods to investigate the (<em>η<sub>max</sub></em>). However, the numerical modelling approach provides a more flexible and cost- and time-efficient tool. This research presents a numerical simulation of tsunamis due to rigid landslides with consideration of submerged conditions. In particular, this simulation focuses on studying the effect of landslide parameters on <em>η<sub>max</sub>.</em> Results of simulations are compared with our conducted physical experiments at the Brunel University London (UK) to validate the numerical model.</p><p>We employ the fully three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics package, FLOW-3D Hydro for modelling the landslide-generated waves. This software benefit from the Volume of Fluid Method (VOF) as the numerical technique for tracking and locating the free surface. The geometry of the simulation is set up according to the wave tank of physical experiments (i.e. 0.26 m wide, 0.50 m deep and 4.0 m). In order to calibrate the simulation model based on the laboratory measurements, the friction coefficient between solid block and incline is changed to 0.41; likewise, the terminal velocity of the landslide is set to 0.87 m/s. Good agreement between the numerical solutions and the experimental results is found. Sensitivity analyses of landslide parameters (e.g. slide volume, water depth, etc.) on <em>η<sub>max </sub></em>are performed. Dimensionless parameters are employed to study the sensitivity of the initial landslide waves to various landslide parameters.</p>

A 7.8m/s vertical drop simulate of a full composite fuselage section was conducted with energy-absorbing floor to evaluate the crashworthiness features of the fuselage section and to predict its dynamic response to dummies in future. The 1.52m diameter fuselage section consists of a high strength upper fuselage frame, one stiff structural floor and an energy-absorbing subfloor constructed of Rohacell foam blocks. The experimental data from literature [6] were analyzed and correlated with predictions from an impact simulation developed using the nonlinear explicit transient dynamic computer code MSC.Dytran. The simulated average acceleration did not exceed 13g, by contrast with experimental results, whose relative error is less than 11%. The numerical simulation results agree with experiments well.

The failure mechanism of tungsten matrix composite was studied with microscale numerical simulation. The results show that high strength tungsten particles are the real loading elements of composite, its strength level embodies the whole property of the composite to some extent. The real stress in tungsten particles is much higher than the external load, so failure may take place when the external load is less than the theoretical strength of tungsten particles.
