It's difficult to meet the design requirements of a rocket with sensitive parameters using traditional methods. This paper develops and optimization concept for lightweight solid-propellant small caliber high Mach number. The structural numerical modeling depend on interior ballistic methodology. model is validated by comparing pressure-time data from simulation experiment. A modified evolution...

Abstraet--In this paper we present plane-stress crack-tip stress and strain fields for pressure-sensitive dilatant materials. A hydrostatic stress-dependent yield criterion and the normality flow rule are used to account for pressure-sensitive yielding and plastic dilatancy. The material hardening response is specified by a power-law relation. The plane-stress mode I singular fields are found i...

Tremendous efforts have been devoted to study the complex phenomenon "knock in spark ignition engines. There is an increasing interest in providing some tools to study knock in simulated data. In the previous studies, engine cylinder pressure oscillation has been used to investigate knock. Unless those methods involved highly complex non-detailed chemical relations, the previous studies were de...

Calculation of lateral earth pressure on retaining walls is one of the main issues in geotechnics. The upper and lower bound theorems of plasticity are used to analyze the stability of geotechnical structures include bearing capacity of foundations, lateral earth pressure on retaining walls and factor of safety of slopes. In this paper formulation of finite element limit analysis is introduced ...
