Transient individual liquid slug motion in a voided line is investigated both numerically and experimentally. In a series of experiments, slugs of various lengths are propelled into an empty pipe under varying air pressures controlled at an upstream reservoir. The pressure-time histories created by the impacting slugs at an elbow located at the end of the pipe reach are measured, and the peak pressures are in reasonable agreement with results reported in an earlier study. An analytical model is developed to predict the slug acceleration and its impulse at the elbow. Comparisons between measured and predicted parameters reveal the random nature of the slug motion and subsequent impact. (C) 1997 Academic Press Limited.

Transient dynamic response of viscoelastic cylinders enclosed in filament wound cylindrical composites Şen, Özge; Turhan, Doğan; Department of Engineering Sciences (2005) In this study, transient dynamic response of viscoelastic cylinders enclosed in filament wound cylindrical composites is investigated. Thermal effects, in addition to mechanical effects, are taken into consideration. A generalized thermoelasticity theory which incorporates the temperature rate among the constitutive variables and is referred to as temperature-rate dependent thermoelasticity theory is employed. This theory predicts finite heat propagation speeds. The body considered in this thesis consists o...
Large deformation analysis of shells under impulsive loading Evcim, Mehmet; Darendeliler, Haluk; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2010) In this thesis large deformation behavior of shell structures under high intensity transient loading conditions is investigated by means of finite element method. For this purpose an explicit finite element program is developed with interactive user interface. The developed program deals with geometric and material nonlinearities which stem from large deformation elastic - plastic behavior. Results of the developed code are compared with the experimental data taken from the literature and simulation results...
Reduced order nonlinear aeroelasticity of swept composite wings using compressible indicial unsteady aerodynamics Farsadi, Touraj; Rahmanian, Mohammad; Kayran, Altan (Elsevier BV, 2020-01-01) Nonlinear dynamic aeroelasticity of composite wings in compressible flows is investigated. To provide a reasonable model for the problem, the composite wing is modeled as a thin walled beam (TWB) with circumferentially asymmetric stiffness layup configuration. The structural model considers nonlinear strain displacement relations and a number of non-classical effects, such as transverse shear and warping inhibition. Geometrically nonlinear terms of up to third order are retained in the formulation. Unsteady...
Mixed-mode fracture analysis of orthotropic functionally graded materials Sarıkaya, Duygu; Dağ, Serkan; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2005) Functionally graded materials processed by the thermal spray techniques such as electron beam physical vapor deposition and plasma spray forming are known to have an orthotropic structure with reduced mechanical properties. Debonding related failures in these types of material systems occur due to embedded cracks that are perpendicular to the direction of the material property gradation. These cracks are inherently under mixed-mode loading and fracture analysis requires the extraction of the modes I and II ...
CONTACT STRESS AND SURFACE FATIGUE FAILURE ANALYSIS FOR COMBINED NORMAL AND TANGENTIAL LOADING Arıkan, Mehmet Ali Sahir (1994-01-01) Contact stresses in bodies in line contact are determined by using the analytical expressions developed for two elastic bodies held in contact by forces normal to the area of contact and accompanied by frictional (tangential) forces. Variations of the stresses in the contact region, and effect of coefficient of friction on these stresses is investigated. Maximum values of principal, maximum shearing and von Mises stresses are determined for static failure analysis; mean and alternating von Mises stresses ...
