The modified mapping-collocation (MMC) method is applied to analyze a circumferential crack in an isotropic curved beam. Based on the method a MATLAB code was developed to obtain the stress field. Incorporating the stress correlation technique, the opening and sliding fracture mode stress intensity factors (SIF)s of the crack for the beam under pure bending moment load case are calculated. The MMC method aims to solve two-dimensional problems of linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) by combining the power of analytic tools of complex analysis (Muskhelishvili formulation, conformal mapping, and extension arguments) with simplicity of applying the boundary collocation method as a numerical solution approach. Qualitatively, a good agreement between the computed stress contours and the fringe shapes obtained from the photoelastic experiment on a plexiglass specimen is observed. Quantitatively, the results are compared with that of ANSYS finite element analysis software. The effect of crack size, crack position and beam thickness variation on SIF values and mode mixity is investigated.

Elastic analysis of a circumferential crack in an isotropic curved beam using the modified mapping-collocation method
Amireghbali, Aydin; Çöker, Demirkan (2014-07-01)
The modified mapping-collocation (MMC) method was applied to the boundary value problem (BVP) of a circumferential crack in an isotropic elastic curved beam subjected to pure bending moment loading. The stress correlation technique is then used to determine opening and sliding mode stress intensity factor (SIF) values based on the computed stress field near the crack tip. The MMC method aims at solving two-dimensional BVP of linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) circumventing the need for direct treatmen...
Nonlinear Vibrations of a Beam with a Breathing Edge Crack
Batihan, Ali C.; Ciğeroğlu, Ender (2015-02-05)
In this paper, nonlinear transverse vibration analysis of a beam with a single edge crack is studied. In literature, edge cracks are generally modeled as open cracks, in which the beam is separated into two pieces at the crack location and these pieces are connected to each other with a rotational spring to represent the effect of crack. The open edge crack model is a widely used assumption; however, it does not consider the nonlinear behavior due to opening and closing of the crack region. In this paper, a...
TIKHONOV REGULARIZATION FOR THE MODIFIED MAPPING-COLLOCATION METHOD APPLIED TO CIRCUMFERENTIAL CRACK IN A CURVED BEAM
Amireghbali, A.; Çöker, Demirkan (2014-07-25)
The modified mapping-collocation (MMC) method is applied to the problem of an isotropic curved beam with a circumferential crack under pure bending moment. Using least squares method to solve the overdetermined system of boundary condition equations causes numerical difficulties. Alternatively zeroth-order Tikhonov regularization is applied to solve the system. The regularization technique appears brilliantly helpful in eliminating the convergence problems associated with ill-posedness of the problem. The b...
Modeling and fabrication of electrostatically actuated diaphragms for on-chip valving of MEMS-compatible microfluidic systems
Atik, Ali Can; Ozkan, Metin Dundar; Ozgur, Ebru; Külah, Haluk; Yıldırım, Ender (IOP Publishing, 2020-11-01)
This paper presents an analytical model to estimate the actuation potential of an electrostatic parylene-C diaphragm, processed on a glass wafer using standard microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) process technology, and integrable to polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) based lab-on-a-chip systems to construct a normally-closed microvalve for flow manipulation. The accurate estimation of the pull-in voltage of the diaphragm is critical to preserve the feasibility of integration. Thus, we introduced an analytical m...
Lateral stiffness of steel plate shear wall systems
Topkaya, Cem (Elsevier BV, 2009-08-01)
The accuracy of the finite element method and strip method of analysis for calculating the lateral stiffness of steel plate shear wall (SPSW) systems is assessed by making comparisons with experimental findings. Comparisons revealed that while both methods provide acceptable accuracy, they also require the generation of sophisticated computer models. In this paper, two alternative methods are developed. The first one is an approximate hand method based on the deep beam theory. The classical deep beam theory...
