    Notes: The computational methods used to predict and optimize the thermal-structural behaviour of aerospace vehicle structures are reviewed. In general, two classes of algorithms, implicit and explicit, are used in transient thermal analysis of structures. Each of these two methods has its own merits. Due to the different time scales of the mechanical and thermal responses, the selection of a time integration method can be a difficult yet critical factor in the efficient solution of such problems.Therefore mixed time integration methods for transient thermal analysis of structures are being developed. This proposed methodology would be readily adaptable to existing computer programs for structural thermal analysis.

    Notes: A method is presented for performing efficient and stable finite element calculations of heat conduction with quadrilaterals using one-point quadrature. The stability in space is obtained by using a stabilization matrix which is orthogonal to all linear fields and its magnitude is determined by a stabilization parameter. It is shown that the accuracy is almost independent of the value of the stabilization parameter over a wide range of values; in fact, the values 3, 2 and 1 for the normalized stabilization parameter lead to the 5-point finite difference, 9-point finite difference and fully integrated finite element operators, respectively, for rectangular meshes; numerical experiments reported here show that the three have identical rates of convergence in the L2 norm. Eigenvalues of the element matrices, which are needed for stability limits, are also given. Numerical applications are used to show that the method yields accurate solutions with large increases in efficiency, particularly in nonlinear problems.

    Notes: A new family of coupled time integration operators of different orders is developed. It permits different time integration operators to be used simultaneously in various regions of the model. This approach has the advantage of applying a very accurate time integrator, such as Runge Kutta method of order two to four, to the local nonlinear region of interest and a simple time integrator, such as the implicit-explicit or mixed time implicit-explicit method of order one, for the remaining region. The computer implementation aspects, stability analysis as well as the numerical evaluations of these new methods are presented. This is another attractive addition to the repertoire of time integration methods.

    Notes: The probabilistic finite element method (PFEM) is formulated for linear and non-linear continua with inhomogeneous random fields. Analogous to the discretization of the displacement field in finite element methods, the random field is also discretized. The formulation is simplified by transforming the correlated variables to a set of uncorrelated variables through an eigenvalue orthogonalization. Furthermore, it is shown that a reduced set of the uncorrelated variables is sufficient for the second-moment analysis. Based on the linear formulation of the PFEM, the method is then extended to transient analysis in non-linear continua.The accuracy and efficiency of the method is demonstrated by application to a one-dimensional, elastic/plastic wave propagation problem and a two-dimensional plane-stress beam bending problem. The moments calculated compare favourably with those obtained by Monte Carlo simulation. Also, the procedure is amenable to implementation in deterministic FEM based computer programs.

    Notes: Abstract In this paper, a stochastic damage model is proposed for the rupture prediction of a brittle, multi-phase material. The model, based on the macrocrack-microcrack interaction, characterizes damage by microcracking and fracture by macrocracking. The model incorporates uncertainties in locations, orientations and numbers of microcracks. Owing to the high concentration of microcracks within the frontal damage zone near the macro-tip, a higher order analysis based on traction boundary integral equations is formulated for an arbitrary array of cracks. The change of the stress intensity at the macrocrack tip by the configuration of microcracks is investigated through a parametric study. The presence of large fluctuation in the stress intensity at the macro-tip justifies the use of the statistical approach, which will be presented in a companion paper.

    Notes: Abstract The stochastic damage model, which has been proposed in Part I of this paper, is utilized to analyze quantitatively the effects of uncertainties in locations, orientations and numbers of microcracks at the macro-tip. This is accomplished by introducing a computer simulation model which incorporates a statistical characterization of geometrical parameters of a random microcrack array. The counteracting effects of microcracking on the fracture toughness, namely, toughness enhancement and toughness degradation, are explored statistically through the change of the location and size of the near tip damage zone. The effects of changes in the geometric configuration and density of microcracks at the macro-tip are also examined through the present statistical approach. The validity of the present model is verified by comparing the obtained statistical distribution with the analytic model based on the Neville distribution function. A very good fit achieved by the use of the Neville function demonstrates the potential of the present damage model, in predicting the inherent statistical distribution of the fracture toughness from the intrinsic random microdefects.

    Notes: In this paper, a ring rolling process is analysed by the Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) finite element method. Phenomena associated with the process, such as large deformations, elastoplastic material behaviour and the friction on the interface, are included in the analysis. Special modelling on driven, idle and guide rolls is given. Results which include the overall shape of the formed ring, the time histories of roll separating force and driving torque, the distribution of the normal pressure on the ring-roll interface as well as the distribution of effective stresses in the formed ring, are also presented.

    Notes: New temporal and spatial discretization methods are developed for multiple scale structural dynamic problems. The concept of fast and slow time scales is introduced for the temporal discretization. The required time step is shown to be dependent only on the slow time scale, and therefore, large time steps can be used for high frequency problems. To satisfy the spatial counterpart of the requirement on time step constraint, finite-spectral elements and finite wave elements are developed. Finite-spectral element methods combine the usual finite elements with the fast convergent spectral functions to obtain a faster convergence rate; whereas, finite wave elements are developed in parallel to the temporal shifting technique. Therefore, the spatial resolution is increased substantially. These methods are especially applicable to structural acoustics and linear space structures. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of these methods.

    Notes: A method that incorporates the hydrodynamic lubrication analysis into the arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) finite element analysis is developed for steady-state strip rolling simulation. By employing the ALE formulation, only part of the workpiece, which is subjected to large plastic deformation within the roll-bite region, is modelled, so that the computational cost is substantially reduced. In the hydrodynamic lubrication formulation, the effect of surface roughness on the lubricant flow is taken into consideration by the use of an average flow model. The friction stress is expressed in terms of forming variables such as surface roughness, lubricant and workpiece properties, film thickness, forming speed and process geometry. Furthermore, the elastic deformation of rolls is also analysed by the boundary element method to avoid the finite element discretization inside the rolls. Two numerical examples, aluminium and steel strip rolling processes, are presented to demonstrate the merits of the proposed method.
