  Mechanics & Industry, EDP Sciences, 2003, 4, pp.607-617. On présente une méthode originale de caractérisation de la répartition de la déformation dans les matériaux hétérogènes, basée sur l'adaptation des techniques statistiques de caractérisation morphologique par covariance à 2 points aux champs locaux de déformation mesurés par microextensométrie MEB. Elle permet de montrer que le comportement mécanique n'est pas uniquement la conséquence d'interactions très locales entre grains ou domaines de phases voisins, mais résulte aussi de phénomènes à plus grande portée.

  Journal de Physique IV Proceedings, EDP Sciences, 2003, 110, pp.159-164. In the present study, dynamic compression tests have been performed on polycarbonate (PC) specimen for strain rates in the range of 500 to 2000s -1 and on aluminum for a strain rate around 1300s -1 using a Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB). Temperature measurement has been carried out using a fast response infrared optical pyrometer which is able to measure the surface temperature rise of a specimen during the tests. The temperature data shows that the mechanical work is not completely converted into heat. It implies the existence of a stored energy within the material and possibly a subsequent delay for the conversion of mechanical work into heat. (10.1051/jp4:20020687)

  , 2003. The yield stress of a ductile 2D porous material with a heterogeneous distribution of pores is investigated by means of a numerical tool based on the Fast Fourier Transform. Random distributions of circular voids, with a uniform or variable pore size and with overlapping or clearly separated pores, are compared, for a same overall porosity, to microstructures obtained as the intersection of the previous ones with a boolean scheme with a larger characteristic size. For pure shear and even more under purely hydrostatic load, the numerical simulations show that the pore distribution has a strong effect on the yield stress, with the so-called “Hashin Composite Cylinders Assemblage” being the hardest microstructure and the connected clusters the softest, while disconnected clusters lead to intermediate responses. An image analysis tool for the statistical characterization of the pore distribution is then proposed. It is based on the distribution function of the distance function, the width of which increases with the presence of clusters. An additional analysis allows one to distinguish microstructures with connected clusters from those with disconnected ones.

• Linear stability analysis in fluid-structure interaction with transpiration. Part II: Numerical analysis and applications
  
  • Fernández Miguel Angel
  • Le Tallec Patrick
  Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering, Elsevier, 2003, 192 (43), pp.4837-4873. This paper constitutes the numerical counterpart of the mathematical framework introduced in Part I. We address the problem of flutter analysis of a coupled fluid-structure system involving an incompressible Newtonian fluid and a reduced structure. We use the Linearization Principle approach developed in Part I, particularly suited for fluid-structure problems involving moving boundaries. Thus, the stability analysis is reduced to the computation of the leftmost eigenvalues of a coupled eigenproblem of minimal complexity. This eigenproblem involves the linearized incompressible Navier-Stokes equations and those of a reduced linear structure. The coupling is realized through specific transpiration interface conditions. The eigenproblem is discretized using a finite element approximation and its smallest real part eigenvalues are computed by combining a generalized Cayley transform and an implicit restarted Arnoldi method. Finally, we report three numerical experiments : a structure immersed in a fluid at rest, a cantilever pipe conveying a fluid flow and a rectangular bridge deck profile under wind effects. The numerical results are compared to former approaches and experimental data. The quality of these numerical results is very satisfactory and promising. (10.1016/j.cma.2003.08.001)

• A computational basis for elastodynamic cavity identification in a semi-infinite solid
  
  • Nintcheu Fata Sylvain
  • Guzina Bojan B
  • Bonnet Marc
  Computational Mechanics, Springer Verlag, 2003, 32, pp.370-380. The focus of this paper is a computational platform for the non-intrusive, active seismic imaging of subterranean openings by means of an elastodynamic boundary integral equation (BIE) method. On simulating the ground response to steady-state seismic excitation as that of a uniform, semi-infinite elastic solid, solution to the 3D inverse scattering problem is contrived as a task of minimizing the misfit between experimental observations and BIE predictions of the surface ground motion. The forward elastodynamic solution revolves around the use of the half-space Greenrsquos functions, which analytically incorporate the traction-free boundary condition at the ground surface and thus allow the discretization and imaging effort to be focused on the surface of a hidden cavity. For a rigorous approach to the gradient-based minimization employed to resolve the cavity, sensitivities of the trial boundary element model with respect to (geometric) void parameters are evaluated using an adjoint field approach. Details of the computational treatment, including the regularized (i.e. Cauchy principal value-free) boundary integral equations for the primary and adjoint problem, the necessary evaluation of surface displacement gradients and their implementation into a parallel code, are highlighted. Through a suite of numerical examples involving the identification of an ellipsoidal cavity, a parametric study is presented which illustrates the importance of several key parameters on the imaging procedure including the prior information, ldquomeasurementrdquo noise, and the amount of experimental input.

  , 2003, pp.261-268. The propagation of moving surface inside a body is analysed in the framework of thermodynamics, when the moving surface is associated with an irreversible change of mechanical properties. The thermodynamical force associated to the propagation has the form of an energy release rate. Quasistatic rate boundary value problem is given when the propagation of the interface is governed by a normality rule. Extension to generalised media to study delamination is also investigated.

• Activation of diffuse discontinuities and folding of sedimentary layers

  Journal of Geophysical Research : Solid Earth, American Geophysical Union, 2003, 108 (B4), pp.1-20. Folding of sedimentary layers is often accommodated by the opening or sliding of inherited and new discontinuities which are assumed here to be diffuse so that a continuum description applies at the fold scale. The rock rheology is then described with an elastoplasticity model for which the permanent deformation is of simple shear (sliding) or dilation (opening) with respect to specific orientations of the new or inherited diffuse discontinuities. To illustrate the relation between folding and activation of diffuse discontinuities, a three-dimensional layer under compression in the two horizontal directions and sustaining the overburden lithostatic pressure is studied. Cylindrical buckling occurs either before (elastic) or after the diffuse discontinuities have been activated. If buckling is elastic, inherited vertical discontinuities, striking obliquely to the fold geometrical axes, are activated in a sliding mode in the outer arc, leading to a rotation of the principal stress directions. Opening is then detected across new vertical planes striking obliquely to the fold axis. The activation of inherited or new vertical discontinuities can be suppressed if sliding takes place along weak bedding interfaces. Alternatively, early and homogeneous layer-parallel shortening, marked by a reverse fault mode, drastically reduces the critical buckling load compared to the Euler load and modifies the final geometry of buckling which is then more of a circular dome shape. The switching in buckling mode results in the fold limbs in a change from the early reverse fault to a strike-slip fault sliding and to opening across diffuse planes oriented consistently with the final circular structure.

• Simulation of stage I fatigue crack gowth in a polycrystal through coupled FEM and discrete dislocation dynamics
  
  • Bertolino Graciela
  • Doquet Véronique
  • Sauzay Maxime
  , 2003. An attempt to model the variability of short crack development in high-cycle fatigue is made by coupling finite element computations of the stresses ahead of a microcrack in a polycrystal with simulations of crack growth along slip planes based on discrete dislocations dynamics. The model predicts a large scatter in growth rates related to the crystallographic disorientations along the crack path. It also describes qualitatively the influence of the mean grain size and the fact that overloads may suppress the endurance limit by allowing arrested cracks to cross the grain boundaries.

  • Kresse Olga

  Journal of the Mechanics and Physics of Solids, Elsevier, 2003, 51, pp.1305-1332. In this paper, we study a highly idealized model of a moving lattice defect allowing for an explicit, “first principles” computation of a functional relation between the macroscopic configurational force and the velocity of the defect. The discrete model is purely conservative and contains information only about elasticities of the constitutive elements. The apparent dissipation is due to the presence of microinstabilities and the nonlinearity-induced tunneling of the energy from long to short wavelengths. This type of “radiative damping” is believed to be generic and accounting for a considerable fraction of inelastic irreversibility associated with fracture, plasticity and phase transitions. The paper contains direct comparison of the exact lattice solution with various continuum and quasicontinuum approximations. Despite its simplicity, the model can be used directly for the description of dynamic phase transitions in thin films. (10.1016/S0022-5096(03)00019-X)

• Safety of salt caverns used for underground storage. Blow out ; mechanical instability ; seepage ; cavern abandonment
  
  • Bérest Pierre
  • Brouard Benoît
  Oil & Gas Science and Technology - Revue d'IFP Energies nouvelles, Institut Français du Pétrole (IFP), 2003, 58, pp.361-384. Thousands of salt caverns (100 in France alone) are being used to store hydrocarbons. This is the safest way to store large quantities of hydrocarbons: salt formations are almost perfectly impermeable, and fire or explosion is impossible underground. However, a small number of accidents (blow-out, product seepage, cavern instability) have occurred in the past. Cavern abandonment is also a concern in some cases. This paper describes several accidents and the lessons that have been drawn from them, leading to considerable improvements in storage design and operation. (10.2516/ogst:2003023)

  , 2003. This paper presents the effect of inertia of cellular structures under impact loading. Experimental results under static and dynamic loading will be presented for square tubes made of a rate quasi-insensitive material (brass), the dynamic results being obtained using modified split Hopkinson pressure bar technique. The numeric simulation under Ls-dyna of those tests giving similar results will be also presented. Presented experimental, numeric results show that the inertia effect is a dominant factor responsible for the enhancement of crushing strength of cellular structures. (10.1051/jp4:20020733)

  Mechanics of Materials, Elsevier, 2003, 35, pp.581-586. This paper focuses on a new analytical solution: the one of the hydrostatic-elastic problem for a wetting fluid inside a 3D penny shaped circular crack in an elastic infinite solid loaded in tension at infinity, when the vapor pressure and the variation of liquid mass can be neglected. With the surface tension phenomena, the liquid is near the crack tip and is generally in tension (negative pressure). (10.1016/S0167-6636(02)00281-8)

  • Fadda Giuseppe

  Physical Review B: Condensed Matter and Materials Physics (1998-2015), American Physical Society, 2003, 68 (13). An explicit polynomial strain-energy function for tetragonal-orthorhombic-monoclinic zirconia (ZrO2), calibrated from the conventional hydrostatic p−T phase diagram, is used to study the effects of nonhydrostatic loading on the phase equilibria in this material. Several representative sections of the phase diagram of ZrO2 in temperature and stress space, containing both triple and critical points, are computed. A new orthorhombic structure of ZrO2 is predicted to be the most stable phase for a variety of experimentally accessible shear loads, in a wide range of temperatures and pressures.
