On the coupled thermo-hydro-mechanical behaviors of layered porous media by the transformed differential quadrature method

Zhi Yong Ai, Yong Zhi Zhao

Summary: This paper investigates the thermo-hydro-mechanical (THM) problem of layered porous media using the transformed differential quadrature method (TDQM). By transforming the governing equations in cylindrical coordinates and discretizing the temporal and spatial domains, the partial differential equations are converted into algebraic equations. Through the introduction of load conditions, boundary conditions, and continuity conditions, the matrix equation to solve the coupled THM problem is obtained. Case studies are conducted to verify the TDQM solution and discuss the influences of thermal and hydraulic parameters on the THM behaviors of layered porous media.

Dynamical inquest of refuge and bubbling issues in an interacting species system

Gourav Mandal, Lakshmi Narayan Guin, Santabrata Chakravarty

Summary: The ecological framework investigates the dynamical complexity of a system influenced by prey refuge and alternative food sources for predators. This study provides a thorough investigation of the stability-instability phenomena, system parameters sensitivity, and the occurrence of bifurcations. The bubbling phenomenon, which indicates a change in the amplitudes of successive cycles, is observed in the current two-dimensional continuous system. The controlling system parameter for the bubbling phenomena is found to be the most sensitive. The prediction and identification of bifurcations in the dynamical system are crucial for theoretical and field researchers.

A multi-physical coupling isogeometric formulation for nonlinear analysis and smart control of laminated CNT-MEE plates

Duy-Khuong Ly, Ho-Nam Vu, Chanachai Thongchom, Nguyen-Thoi Trung

Summary: This paper presents a novel numerical approach for nonlinear analysis and smart damping control in laminated functionally graded carbon nanotube reinforced magneto-electro-elastic (FG-CNTMEE) plate structures, taking into account multiple physical fields. The approach employs a multi-physical coupling isogeometric formulation to accurately capture the nonlinear strain-displacement relationship and the magneto-electro-elastic coupling properties. The smart constrained layer damping treatment is applied to achieve nonlinear damped responses. The formulation is transformed into the Laplace domain and converted back to the time domain through inverse techniques for smart control using viscoelastic materials.

Dynamic modeling and nonlinear analysis for lateral-torsional coupling vibration in an unbalanced rotor system

Pingchao Yu, Li Hou, Ke Jiang, Zihan Jiang, Xuanjun Tao

Summary: This paper investigates the imbalance problem in rotating machinery and finds that mass imbalance can induce lateral-torsional coupling vibration. By developing a model and conducting detailed analysis, it is discovered that mass imbalance leads to nonlinear time-varying characteristics and there is no steady-state torsional vibration in small unbalanced rotors. Under largely unbalanced conditions, both resonant and unstable behavior can be observed, and increasing lateral damping can suppress instability and reduce lateral amplitude in the resonance region.
