The contact modes are classified into dense contact, local non-contact, and loose contact. Subsequently, the corresponding mechanical model for each contact mode is developed according to its mechanical characteristics using the complex variable method. In the proposed mechanical model, a special algorithm is introduced to detect whether the local non-contact zone is re-contacted. Besides, a novel conformal mapping method is also proposed to accurately calculate the mechanical response of the concrete lining. Finally, the accuracy of the proposed method is verified by comparing it with the finite element method(FEM). Several parameter investigations are conducted to analyze the effects of different contact modes on the rock-lining interaction. The results show that:(i) the height of the local noncontact area does not have a significant effect on the contact stress distribution if no re-contact occurs;(ii) backfill grouting can reduce the local stress concentration caused by poor contact modes;and(iii) reducing the friction coefficient of the interface can lead to a more uniform distribution of internal forces in the concrete lining.展开更多

We propose to extend the formalism of real deterministic hidden variables in the complex domain, in analogy with the quantum Gamow ket formalism, and we introduce a time dependent classical probability density distribution by which we implement hidden time dependence in the quantum expectation values. We suggest therefore a classical framework which may recover by asymptotic temporal limits the standard Bell stationary quantum statistical averages. Endly we discuss the possible relevance of our proposal for general non-isolated quantum systems in noninertial frames and the consequent dynamic effects of vacuum instabilities on E.P.R tests and Q.M. ensemble statistical averages.展开更多

We deduce a generalization of Bell theorem assuming that classical observables are not dichotomic and that photon pair emission and detection is not a stationary stochastic process. We derive a photon imperfect polarization correlation functions due to rotational invariance breaking induced by hidden vacuum spin currents. We implement formally this approach deducing a generalization of C.H.S.H. inequalities which asymptotically converges to the standard one and which might be competitive with standard quantum mechanics predictions. We suggest to test this inequalities conceiving new E.P.R.-Bell like tests with time dependent detector efficiency and photon flux. Finally, we suggest to apply these generalized inequalities to the correlation functions of entangled classical spinning waves realized recently with metamaterials.展开更多

With consideration of the boundary conditions, a new stress function is introduced to transform the problem of bi-material interface crack into a boundary value problem of partial differential equations. Two sets of non-homogeneous linear equations with 16 unknowns are constructed. By solving the equations, the expressions for the real bi-material elastic constant εt and the real stress singularity exponents λt are obtained with the bi-material engineering parameters satisfying certain conditions. By the uniqueness theorem of limit,undetermined coefficients are determined, and thus the bi-material stress intensity factor in mixed cracks is obtained. The bi-material stress intensity factor characterizes features of mixed cracks. When orthotropic bi-materials are of the same material, the degenerate solution to the stress intensity factor in mixed bi-material interface cracks is in complete agreement with the present classic conclusion. The relationship between the bi-material stress intensity factor and the ratio of bi-material shear modulus and the relationship between the bi-material stress intensity factor and the ratio of bi-material Young's modulus are given in the numerical analysis.展开更多

The complex variable method and the conformal mapping technique are used. The continuity conditions for the traction and displacement along the interface in the physical plane are reduced to the similar conditions along the unit circle of the mapping plane. The properties of the complex potentials defined in the finite elliptic region are analyzed. From the continuity conditions, one can separate and obtain the relevant complex potentials defined in the inclusion and the matrix. From the obtained complex potentials, the dependence of the real strains and stresses in the inclusion from the assumed eigenstrains is evaluated. In addition, the stress distribution on the interface along the matrix side is evaluated. The results are obtained in the paper for the first time.展开更多

Applying the orthogonal function expansion method, the problem to be solved can be reduced into the solution of a set of infinite algebraic equations. According to free boundary conditions, numerical results of dynamic moment concentration factors in thick plates with two circular cutouts analyze that: there will be more complex interaction changes between two-cutout situation than single cutout situation. In the case of low frequency or high frequency and thin plate, the hole-spacing in the absence of coupling interactions was larger or smaller. The numerical results and method can be used to analyze the dynamics and strength of plate-like structures.展开更多

However, to date, there has been no reporting of a comparison of computational results between the FVM and the CVBEM in the assessment of flow field characteristics. In this work, the CVBEM is used to develop a flow field vector outcome of ideal fluid flow in a 90-degree bend which is then compared to the computational results from a finite volume model of the same situation. The focus of the modelling comparison in the current work is flow field trajectory vectors of the fluid flow, with respect to vector magnitude and direction. Such a comparison is necessary to validate the development of flow field vectors from the CVBEM and is of interest to many engineering flow problems, specifically groundwater modelling. Comparison of the CVBEM and FVM flow field trajectory vectors for the target problem of ideal flow in a 90-degree bend shows good agreement between the considered methodologies.展开更多

文摘An analytical model based on complex variable theory is proposed to investigate ground responses due to shallow tunneling in multi-layered ground with an arbitrary ground surface load.The ground layers are assumed to be linear-elastic with full-stick contact between them.To solve the proposed multi-boundary problem,a series of analytic functions is introduced to accurately express the stresses and displacements contributed by different boundaries.Based on the principle of linear-elastic superposition,the multi-boundary problem is converted into a superposition of multiple single-boundary problems.The conformal mappings of different boundaries are independent of each other,which allows the stress and displacement fields to be obtained by the sum of components from each boundary.The analytical results are validated based on numerical and in situ monitoring results.The present model is superior to the classical model for analyzing ground responses of shallow tunneling in multi-layered ground;thus,it can be used with assurance to estimate the ground movement and surface building safety of shallow tunnel constructions beneath surface buildings.Moreover,the solution for the ground stress distribution can be used to estimate the safety of a single-layer composite ground.

文摘The unified displacement function(UDF)is presented to describe the deformation behaviours of the tunnel profile along with time under the surface slope condition.Based on the discrete Fourier method,the third-order UDF in the physical plane is expanded to the Laurent series in the complex variable plane.The complex variable method is employed to derive the elastic analytical solution of stra-tum displacement,when the third-order UDF is taken as the displacement boundary condition of tunnel cross-section(DBCTC).The proposed elastic solution agrees well with the results of the finite element method for the consistent model,which verifies the correctness of the proposed analytical solution.Combining the corresponding principle and fractional Generalized Kelvin viscoelastic constitutive model,the fractional viscoelastic solution under the surface slope condition is determined.The time effect of stratum displacement is presented in two aspects:time-dependent DBCTC and time-dependent material parameters.The parameter analysis is performed to investigate influences of deformation modes of the third-order UDF,slope angle,tunnel radius and fractional order on the time effect of stratum vertical and horizontal displacement.

文摘Positive-instantaneous frequency representation for transient signals has always been a great concern due to its theoretical and practical importance,although the involved concept itself is paradoxical.The desire and practice of uniqueness of such frequency representation(decomposition)raise the related topics in approximation.During approximately the last two decades there has formulated a signal decomposition and reconstruction method rooted in harmonic and complex analysis giving rise to the desired signal representations.The method decomposes any signal into a few basic signals that possess positive instantaneous frequencies.The theory has profound relations to classical mathematics and can be generalized to signals defined in higher dimensional manifolds with vector and matrix values,and in particular,promotes kernel approximation for multi-variate functions.This article mainly serves as a survey.It also gives two important technical proofs of which one for a general convergence result(Theorem 3.4),and the other for necessity of multiple kernel(Lemma 3.7).Expositorily,for a given real-valued signal f one can associate it with a Hardy space function F whose real part coincides with f.Such function F has the form F=f+iHf,where H stands for the Hilbert transformation of the context.We develop fast converging expansions of F in orthogonal terms of the form F=∑k=1^(∞)c_(k)B_(k),where B_(k)'s are also Hardy space functions but with the additional properties B_(k)(t)=ρ_(k)(t)e^(iθ_(k)(t)),ρk≥0,θ′_(k)(t)≥0,a.e.The original real-valued function f is accordingly expanded f=∑k=1^(∞)ρ_(k)(t)cosθ_(k)(t)which,besides the properties ofρ_(k)andθ_(k)given above,also satisfies H(ρ_(k)cosθ_(k))(t)ρ_(k)(t)sinρ_(k)(t).Real-valued functions f(t)=ρ(t)cosθ(t)that satisfy the conditionρ≥0,θ′(t)≥0,H(ρcosθ)(t)=ρ(t)sinθ(t)are called mono-components.If f is a mono-component,then the phase derivativeθ′(t)is defined to be instantaneous frequency of f.The above described positive-instantaneous frequency expansion is a generalization of the Fourier series expansion.Mono-components are crucial to understand the concept instantaneous frequency.We will present several most important mono-component function classes.Decompositions of signals into mono-components are called adaptive Fourier decompositions(AFDs).Wc note that some scopes of the studies on the ID mono-components and AFDs can be extended to vector-valued or even matrix-valued signals defined on higher dimensional manifolds.We finally provide an account of related studies in pure and applied mathematics.
