  • Impulse and Momentum
    Impulse and Momentum All particles with mass experience the effects of impulse and momentum. Momentum and inertia are similar concepts that describe an objects motion, however inertia describes an objects resistance to change in its velocity, and momentum refers to the magnitude and direction of it's motion. Momentum is an important parameter to consider in many situations such as braking in a car or playing a game of billiards. An object can experience both linear momentum and angular momentum. The nature of linear momentum will be explored in this module. This section will discuss momentum and impulse and the interconnection between them. We will explore how energy lost in an impact is accounted for and the relationship of momentum to collisions between two bodies. This section aims to provide a better understanding of the fundamental concept of momentum. Understanding Momentum Any body that is in motion has momentum. A force acting on a body will change its momentum. The momentum of a particle is defined as the product of the mass multiplied by the velocity of the motion. Let the variable represent momentum. ... Eq. (1) The Principle of Momentum Recall Newton's second law of motion. ... Eq. (2) This can be rewritten with accelleration as the derivate of velocity with respect to time. ... Eq.

  • What Is Hooke's Law? 16 February 2015, by Matt Williams
    What is Hooke's Law? 16 February 2015, by Matt Williams Like so many other devices invented over the centuries, a basic understanding of the mechanics is required before it can so widely used. In terms of springs, this means understanding the laws of elasticity, torsion and force that come into play – which together are known as Hooke's Law. Hooke's Law is a principle of physics that states that the that the force needed to extend or compress a spring by some distance is proportional to that distance. The law is named after 17th century British physicist Robert Hooke, who sought to demonstrate the relationship between the forces applied to a spring and its elasticity. He first stated the law in 1660 as a Latin anagram, and then published the solution in 1678 as ut tensio, sic vis – which translated, means "as the extension, so the force" or "the extension is proportional to the force"). This can be expressed mathematically as F= -kX, where F is the force applied to the spring (either in the form of strain or stress); X is the displacement A historical reconstruction of what Robert Hooke looked of the spring, with a negative value demonstrating like, painted in 2004 by Rita Greer.

  • Ductile Deformation - Concepts of Finite Strain
    327 Ductile deformation - Concepts of finite strain Deformation includes any process that results in a change in shape, size or location of a body. A solid body subjected to external forces tends to move or change its displacement. These displacements can involve four distinct component patterns: - 1) A body is forced to change its position; it undergoes translation. - 2) A body is forced to change its orientation; it undergoes rotation. - 3) A body is forced to change size; it undergoes dilation. - 4) A body is forced to change shape; it undergoes distortion. These movement components are often described in terms of slip or flow. The distinction is scale- dependent, slip describing movement on a discrete plane, whereas flow is a penetrative movement that involves the whole of the rock. The four basic movements may be combined. - During rigid body deformation, rocks are translated and/or rotated but the original size and shape are preserved. - If instead of moving, the body absorbs some or all the forces, it becomes stressed. The forces then cause particle displacement within the body so that the body changes its shape and/or size; it becomes deformed. Deformation describes the complete transformation from the initial to the final geometry and location of a body. Deformation produces discontinuities in brittle rocks. In ductile rocks, deformation is macroscopically continuous, distributed within the mass of the rock. Instead, brittle deformation essentially involves relative movements between undeformed (but displaced) blocks. Finite strain jpb, 2019 328 Strain describes the non-rigid body deformation, i.e. the amount of movement caused by stresses between parts of a body.

  • On the Path-Dependence of the J-Integral Near a Stationary Crack in an Elastic-Plastic Material
    On the Path-Dependence of the J-integral Near a Stationary Crack in an Elastic-Plastic Material Dorinamaria Carka and Chad M. Landis∗ The University of Texas at Austin, Department of Aerospace Engineering and Engineering Mechanics, 210 East 24th Street, C0600, Austin, TX 78712-0235 Abstract The path-dependence of the J-integral is investigated numerically, via the finite element method, for a range of loadings, Poisson's ratios, and hardening exponents within the context of J2-flow plasticity. Small-scale yielding assumptions are employed using Dirichlet-to-Neumann map boundary conditions on a circular boundary that encloses the plastic zone. This construct allows for a dense finite element mesh within the plastic zone and accurate far-field boundary conditions. Details of the crack tip field that have been computed previously by others, including the existence of an elastic sector in Mode I loading, are confirmed. The somewhat unexpected result is that J for a contour approaching zero radius around the crack tip is approximately 18% lower than the far-field value for Mode I loading for Poisson’s ratios characteristic of metals. In contrast, practically no path-dependence is found for Mode II. The applications of T or S stresses, whether applied proportionally with the K-field or prior to K, have only a modest effect on the path-dependence. Keywords: elasto-plastic fracture mechanics, small scale yielding, path-dependence of the J-integral, finite element methods 1. Introduction The J-integral as introduced by Eshelby [1,2] and Rice [3] is perhaps the most useful quantity for the analysis of the mechanical fields near crack tips in both linear elastic and non-linear elastic materials.

  • The Effect of Transverse Shear Deformation on the Bending of Elastic Shells of Revolution*
    41 THE EFFECT OF TRANSVERSE SHEAR DEFORMATION ON THE BENDING OF ELASTIC SHELLS OF REVOLUTION* BT P. M. NAGHDI University of Michigan 1. Introduction. The classical theory of thin elastic shells of revolution with small axisymmetric displacements, due to H. Reissner [1] for spherical shells of uniform thick- ness, and Meissner [2, 3] for the general shells of revolution, was recently reconsidered by E. Reissner [4], where reference to the historical development of the subject may be found. Although the formulation of the linear theory and the resulting differential equations contained in [4] differ only slightly from those of H. Reissner and Meissner, they offer certain advantages not revealed in earlier formulations. As has been recently pointed out, the improvement of the linear theory of thin shells, by inclusion of the effects of both transverse shear deformation and normal stress, requires the formulation of suitable stress strain relations and appropriate boundary conditions which, for shells of uniform thickness, have been very recently carried out by E. Reissner [5] and the present author [6]**. The latter also contains explicit stress strain relations when only the effect of transverse shear deformation is fully accounted for but that of normal stress is neglected. The present paper is concerned with the small axisymmetric deformation of elastic shells of revolution, where only the effect of transverse shear deformation is retained. The basic equations which include the appropriate expression for the transverse (shear) stress resultant due to the variation in thickness, are reduced to two simultaneous second-order differential equations in two suitable dependent variables. These equations are then combined into a single complex differential equation which is valid for shells of uniform thickness, as well as for a large class of variable thickness.

  • Pure Bending & Shear Deformation
    THEORY OF THE FOUR POINT DYNAMIC BENDING TEST PART IV: PURE BENDING & SHEAR DEFORMATION IMPORTANT NOTICE March 8 & 9 ; 2007 In the original report the coefficient in the formula for the effective cross area (denoted by: {,}BH , for the shear force), is taken equal to 2/3. Just st before the 1 European 4PB workshop on March 8 & 9; 2007 it was concluded, based on ABACUS FEM calculations, that a value of 0,85 was more appropriated and leads to: = 0,85.B.H THEORY OF THE FOUR POINT DYNAMIC BENDING TEST PART IV: PURE BENDING & SHEAR DEFORMATION AUTHOR: A.C. PRONK DATE: 1ST CONCEPT SEPTEMBER 2002 FINISHED MAY 2007 Abstract This report deals with the commonly neglected influences of shear forces on the measured deflections in the dynamic four point bending test. The report forms the fourth part in the series of reports on the “Theory of the Four Point Dynamic Bending Test”. It is world wide adopted that for a bending test in which the ratio of the (effective) length or span of the beam and the height of the beam is above a factor 8 the deflection due to shear forces can be neglected. This judgement is based on a comparison between the differential equations for pseudo-static bending tests. In this report the complete analytical solutions are derived for cyclic bending test conditions. It is shown that the deflection part due to shear forces is around 5% of the total deflection. For a good understanding of the theory it is advised to use Part I and II of the series on the Theory of the Four Point Bending Test next to this report.
