This paper is concerned with thermo-mechanical vibration behavior of flexoelectric/piezoelectric nanobeams under uniform and linear temperature distributions. Flexoelectric/piezoelectric nanobeams have higher natural frequencies compared to conventional piezoelectric ones, especially at lower thicknesses. Both nonlocal and surface effects are considered in the analysis of flexoelectric/piezoelectric nanobeams for the first time. Hamilton's principle is employed to derive the governing equations and the related boundary conditions which are solved applying a Galerkin-based solution. Comparison study is also performed to verify the present formulation with those of previous data. Numerical results are presented to investigate the influences of the flexoelectricity, nonlocal parameter, surface elasticity, temperature rise, beam thickness and various boundary conditions on the vibration frequencies of thermally affected flexoelectric/piezoelectric nanobeam.

The nonlocal strain gradient theory for the static bending analysis of graphene nanoplatelets (GPLs) reinforced the nanoplate is developed in this paper. The nanoplatelet is exposed to thermo-mechanical loads and is also supposed to stand on an elastic foundation. For computing impressive composite material characteristics, the Halpin-Tsai model is selected for various sectors. The various distributions are propounded including UD, FG-O, and FG-X. The represented equations are acquired based on the virtual work and sinusoidal shear and normal deformation theory (SSNDT). Navier's solution as the analytical method is applied to solve these equations. Furthermore, the effects of GPL weight fraction, temperature parameters, distribution pattern and parameters of the foundation are presented and discussed.

In this study, the flow control system with shape memory alloy in jet engine inlet was suggested to adjust the shock boundary layer interact~on for supersonic flight system. It consisted of the flap with shape memory alloy, spar with steel, and fixing device with aluminum alloy. The advantages of itself are a simple configuration, a passive air circulation by using the flap deflection due to pressure difference, and no need to be required the auxiliary devices. Finite element analysis was conducted to predict the thenno-mechanical behavlor of the flap system with shape memory alloy. The user-defined subroutine UMAT was implemented with ABAQUS to accon~modate the thermo-mechanical constitutive relation of shape memory alloy.

In the present paper a transient three-dimensional thermo-mechanical model for concrete is presented. For given boundary conditions, temperature distribution is calculated by employing a three-dimensional transient thermal finite element analysis. Thermal properties of concrete are assumed to be constant and independent of the stress-strain distribution. In the thermo-mechanical model for concrete the total strain tensor is decomposed into pure mechanical strain, free thermal strain and load induced thermal strain. The mechanical strain is calculated by using temperature dependent microplane model for concrete (O$\check{z}$bolt, et al. 2001). The dependency of the macroscopic concrete properties (Young's modulus, tensile and compressive strengths and fracture energy) on temperature is based on the available experimental database. The stress independent free thermal strain is calculated according to the proposal of Nielsen, et al. (2001). The load induced thermal strain is obtained by employing the biparabolic model, which was recently proposed by Nielsen, et al. (2004). It is assumed that the total load induced thermal strain is irrecoverable, i.e., creep component is neglected. The model is implemented into a three-dimensional FE code. The performance of headed stud anchors exposed to fire was studied. Three-dimensional transient thermal FE analysis was carried out for three embedment depths and for four thermal loading histories. The results of the analysis show that the resistance of anchors can be significantly reduced if they are exposed to fire. The largest reduction of the load capacity was obtained for anchors with relatively small embedment depths. The numerical results agree well with the available experimental evidence.

A brand-new micro actuator is introduced in this paper. This device is one of thermo-pneumatic actuators, and based on two distinct principles of snap-through buckling and phase change. These coupled phenomena affect each other positively and will outrun the performance of an ordinary thermo-pneumatic actuator. Our efforts are focused on comprehensive analysis on the driving force of the actuator. For the analysis, we explain each principle and offer approximated models for the buckling and phase change. The calculation results from each model are compared to experimental data. The comparison between prediction from models and data from experiments is within the satisfaction in spite of a lot of approximations.

A finite element analysis to solve the coupled thermomechanical problem in the plane strain upsetting of the porous metals was performed. The analysis was formulated using the yield function advanced by Lee and kim and developed using the thermo-elasto-plastic time integration procedure. The density and temperature dependent thermal and mechanical properties of porous metals were considered. The internal heat generation by the plastic deformation and the changing thermal boundary conditions corresponding to the geometry were incorporated in the program. The distributions of the stress, strain, pressure, density and temperature were predicted during the free resting period, deformation period and dwelling period of the forging process.

In the present study, thermo-electro-mechanical vibration characteristics of functionally graded piezoelectric (FGP) Timoshenko nanobeams subjected to in-plane thermal loads and applied electric voltage are carried out by presenting a Navier type solution for the first time. Three kinds of thermal loading, namely, uniform, linear and non-linear temperature rises through the thickness direction are considered. Thermo-electro-mechanical properties of FGP nanobeam are supposed to vary smoothly and continuously throughout the thickness based on power-law model. Eringen's nonlocal elasticity theory is exploited to describe the size dependency of nanobeam. Using Hamilton's principle, the nonlocal equations of motion together with corresponding boundary conditions based on Timoshenko beam theory are obtained for the free vibration analysis of graded piezoelectric nanobeams including size effect and they are solved applying analytical solution. According to the numerical results, it is revealed that the proposed modeling can provide accurate frequency results of the FGP nanobeams as compared to some cases in the literature. In following a parametric study is accompanied to examine the effects of several parameters such as various temperature distributions, external electric voltage, power-law index, nonlocal parameter and mode number on the natural frequencies of the size-dependent FGP nanobeams in detail. It is found that the small scale effect and thermo-electrical loading have a significant effect on natural frequencies of FGP nanobeams.

This paper addresses the systematic procedure using sequential approach for the analysis of the coupled thermo-mechanical behavior of a steady rolling tire. Not only the knowledge of mechanical stresses but also of the temperature loading in a rolling tire are very important because material damage and material properties are significantly affected by the temperature. In general, the thermo-mechanical behavior of a pneumatic tire is highly complex transient phenomenon that requires the solution of a dynamic nonlinear coupled themoviscoelasticity problem with heat source resulting from internal dissipation and friction. In this paper, a sequential approach, with effective calculation schemes, to modeling this system is presented in order to predict the temperature distribution with reasonable sccuracies in a steady state rolling tire. This approach has the three major analysis modules-deformation, dissipation, and thermal modules. In the dissipation module, an analytic method for the calculation of the heat source in a rolling tire is established using viscoelastic theory. For the verification of the calculated temperature profiles and rolling resistance at different velocities, they were compared with the measured ones.

화재 발생 시 지하구조물의 열-역학상호거동이 정확히 고려되지 못하고 있으며, 이로 인해 일반적인 열전달 이론에 근거한 수치해석 시 화재로 인한 구조물의 손상정도가 과소 평가될 수 있는 문제점이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 화재 발생 시 지하구조물의 열-역학 상호거동을 모사하기 위한 유한요소 기반의 수치모델을 새롭게 개발하였다. 특히, 화재로 인한 구조물의 단면 손실을 모사하기 위한 요소제거모델을 제안하였고 대류 경계조건을 적용하였다. 이때 요소 내의 최대 온도가 해석 시에 설정한 임계온도 이상이 되면 요소가 제거되도록 설정하였다. 모형 화재시험 결과와 해석 결과를 비교한 변수해석을 통하여, RABT와 RWS 화재 시나리오 조건에 대한 최적의 임계온도, 요소크기, 온도에 따른 대류열전달계수 조건 등을 제시하였다.

방사성 폐기물지하처분이나 열수 및 축열 에너지저장, 지열에너지 개발 등과 같은 대규모 지하공간 프로젝트들이 대두됨에 따라 역학, 수리 및 열적 거동을 동시에 고려한 연구가 필요하게 되었다. 열-수리-역학 상호작용 해석은 열로 교란되고 지하수로 포화된 암반내의 거동을 열 수리, 역학 3가지 지배방정식의 결합을 통해 구현하는 상당히 복잡한 수치 해석 기법 중의 하나이다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 Biot의 압밀이론에 기초한 수식화들을 이용하여 연속체 암반의 열-수리-역학적 상호작용을 모사할 수 있는 유한요소 프로그램을 개발하였다. 개발된 프로그램의 검증을 위해 등온과 비등온 조건하의 일차원 압밀모델에 대한 해석을 실시하여 해석해와 비교하였다. 이타원 압밀에 대한 변수해석을 통하여 포아송비나 수리적 이방성과 같은 인자들이 매체 거동에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 앞으로 본 프로그램에 개별체 절리 모델을 통합시켜 보다 일반적인 불연속 암반의 상호작용 거동 해석에 이용할 수 있을 것이다.
