Junctions In Shell Structures: A Review
PublicationMany shell structures used in modern technology consist of regular shell parts joined together along their common boundaries. We review different theoretical, numerical, and experimental approaches to modelling, analyses and design of the compound shell structures with junctions. Several alternative forms of boundary, continuity and jump conditions at the singular midsurface curves modelling the shell junction are reviewed. We...

On mechanics of piezocomposite shell structures
PublicationThis study presents an original and novel investigation into the mechanics of piezo-flexo-magneto-elastic nanocomposite doubly-curved shells (PFMDCSs) and the ability to detect the lower and higher levels of electro-magnetic fields. In this context, by utilizing the first-order shear deformation shell model, stresses and strains are acquired. By imposing Hamilton's principle and the von Kármán approach, the governing equations...

Viscoplastic damage analysis of structures subjected to impact loading. Plate and shell structures. - Ł. Pyrzowski.
PublicationThe work presents the investigation in the response of plate-shell structures subjected to impact loading (gas mixture explosions). This phenomenon is studied in the context of its mechanical aspects, mainly the ductile fracture prediction. The work starts with the literature review and the description of theories, which are nowadays the most popular in the damage and failure modelling. After selecting the theoretical models and...

Application of lightweight cement composite with foamed glass aggregate in shell structures
PublicationThe purpose of the paper is to investigate the abilities of applying Granulated Expanded Glass Aggregate (GEGA) as a natural volume substitute of aggregate as a component of lightweight concrete. The GEGA aggregates used in the experiments were made of confused glass waste. In order to achieve satisfactory strength of concrete Granulated Ash Aggregate (GAA) was added as well. To produce specimens three grain sizes of aggregates...

Generalized Taylor formula and shell structures for the analysis of the interaction between geosythetics and engineering structures of transportation lines
PublicationThe analysis of the interaction between geosynthetics and engineering structures (e.g. railroad bed, soil foundation, pipeline) assumes that the geosynthetic form elastic membranes or shell laid on different types of foundations. The mathematical description of that problems in continuous domain employs Laplace operator Δ or d’Alembert operator □. In this paper we demonstrate the analysis based on generalize Taylor formula, and...

Neuro-wavelet damage detection technique in beam, plate and shell structures with experimental validation
PublicationNiniejsza praca poświęcona jest technice diagnostyki konstrukcji bazującej na transfor-macie falkowej oraz sztucznych sieciach neuronowych (tzw. system neuro-wavelet). Zastosowanie analizy falkowej pozwala na lokalizację uszkodzeń wymagającą mini-malnej ilości danych wejściowych. W tym celu niezbędna jest tylko odpowiedź kon-strukcji pomierzona w wielu punktach. Poprawę efektywności lokalizacji zniszczeń uzyskano poprzez użycie...

Acetate-Induced Disassembly of Spherical Iron Oxide Nanoparticle Clusters into Monodispersed Core−Shell Structures upon Nanoemulsion Fusion
PublicationIt has been long known that the physical encapsulation of oleic acid-capped iron oxide nanoparticles (OA−IONPs) with the etyltrimethylammonium (CTA+) surfactant induces the formation of spherical iron oxide nanoparticle clusters (IONPCs). However, the behavior and functional properties of IONPCs in chemical reactions have been largely neglected and are still not well-understood. Herein, we report an unconventional ligand-exchange...
