    Notes: Abstract A very precise system for measuring two-dimensional velocity fields in solid samples has been used for nondestructive measurements of both externally applied and residual inhomogeneous stresses in solids,J integrals, stress intensity factors of cracks, and hardness of quenched steel. The longitudinal velocity measurement is based on precise determination of the propagation transit time through the stressed solid specimen using a small diameter, water-coupled acoutic transducer, which is scanned mechanically over the sample. Changes in velocity are then related to changes of stress in the sample by the theory of acoustoelasticity. Similar measurements show a high degree of correlation between longitudinal velocity changes and changes in microstructure in steel samples. Applications to problems of solid mechanics and material science illustrate the utility of this nondestructive measuring technique.

    Notes: Abstract A general theory of eddy current flaw response, appropriate to both standard low frequency and ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) probes, is developed for simple two-dimensional and three-dimensional open and closed surface flaw geometries. This analysis, based on the assumption of a uniform interrogating field applied to the flaw by the probe, shows that flaw opening responses increase with the operating frequency of the probe. Experimental results using both types of probe confirm this result for realistic practical geometries, where variations of crack mouth opening displacement under load provide useful information about crack dimensions.

    Keywords: Acoustic diffraction ; acoustic transmission ; asperity contact ; crack closure ; fatigue cracks ; mode conversion ; NDE ; stress intensity factor

    Notes: Abstract The partial contact of two rough fatigue crack surfaces leads to transmission, reflection, diffraction, and mode conversion of an acoustic signal at those contacts. This paper reviews recent experimental and theoretical efforts to understand and quantify such contact on actual fatigue cracks in greater detail. It is shown that the size and density of individual contacts, or asperities, can be estimated from acoustic measurements. Furthermore, it is shown that this information is useful to provide the static stress across a partially closed crack as well as the “effective” stress intensity range which activates fatigue crack propagation.

    Keywords: Optimal control ; control constraints ; terminal equality constraints ; exact penalty function ; convergence
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Mathematics
    Notes: Abstract The presence of control constraints, because they are nondifferentiable in the space of control functions, makes it difficult to cope with terminal equality constraints in optimal control problems. Gradient-projection algorithms, for example, cannot be employed easily. These difficulties are overcome in this paper by employing an exact penalty function to handle the cost and terminal equality constraints and using the control constraints to define the space of permissible search directions in the search-direction subalgorithm. The search-direction subalgorithm is, therefore, more complex than the usual linear program employed in feasible-directions algorithms. The subalgorithm approximately solves a convex optimal control problem to determine the search direction; in the implementable version of the algorithm, the accuracy of the approximation is automatically increased to ensure convergence.

    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Mathematics
    Notes: Abstract In Part 1 of this paper, implementable and conceptual versions of an algorithm for optimal control problems with control constraints and terminal equality constraints were presented. It was shown that anyL ∞ accumulation points of control sequences generated by the algorithms satisfy necessary conditions of optimality. Since such accumulation points need not exist, it is shown in this paper that control sequences generated by the algorithms always have accumulation points in the sense of control measure, and these accumulation points satisfy optimality conditions for the corresponding relaxed control problem.

    Topics: Mathematics
    Notes: Abstract An optimal control problem, which includes restrictions on the controls and equality/inequality constraints on the terminal states, is formulated. Second-order necessary conditions of the accessory-problem type are obtained in the absence of normality conditions. It is shown that the necessary conditions generalize and simplify prior results due to Hestenes (Ref. 5) and Warga (Refs. 6 and 7).
