微结构碳基和聚合物基互穿相复合材料的力学研究
Composite materials are known for their superior mechanical performance as a result of efficient load transfer between the reinforcing and matrix phases. However, the two-dimensional structure of laminated composites reduces their robustness to shear and out-of-plane loads, also enabling failure mechanis ms such as interlaminar failure and fiber pull-out. Meanwhile, unique structure–property relations in architected materials have led to tunable mechanical properties, deformation, and failure mechanis ms. While some architected materials have reached near-theoretical limits, the majority of current work focuses on describing the response of a single-material network in air, and the effect of a load-bearing second phase to a three-dimensional architecture is not well understood. Here, we develop facile fabrication methods for realizing centimeter-scale polymer- and carbon-based architected interpenetrating phase composites (IPC), consisting of a continuous 3D architecture surrounded by a load-bearing matrix, and determine the effect of geometry and constituent material properties on the mechanics of these architected IPCs. Using experiments together with computational models, we show that the matrix phase distributes stress effectively, resulting in a high-strength, stable response to loading. Notably, failure delocalization enhances energy dissipation of the composite, achieving specific energy absorption values comparable to those of wound fiber tubes. Finally, we demonstrate that the stress state in an IPC can be tuned using geometric design and introduce an example of optimized mechanical response in an architected composite. Altogether, this work bridges the gap between mechanically efficient composites and tunable architected materials, laying the foundation for a new class of strong, resilient, and programmable materials.
复合材料以其优异的机械性能而闻名,这是增强相和基体相之间有效载荷传递的结果。然而,层合复合材料的二维结构降低了其对剪切和面外载荷的鲁棒性,也导致了层间破坏和纤维拔出等破坏机制。同时,建筑材料中独特的结构-性能关系导致了可调的力学性能,变形和破坏机制。虽然一些建筑材料已经达到了接近理论的极限,但目前的大部分工作都集中在描述空气中单一材料网络的响应,并且承重第二阶段对三维建筑的影响还没有得到很好的理解。在这里,我们开发了简单的制造方法来实现厘米级聚合物和碳基结构互穿相复合材料(IPC),由一个由承载矩阵包围的连续3D结构组成,并确定几何形状和组成材料特性对这些结构IPC力学的影响。通过实验和计算模型,我们证明了基体相有效地分配应力,从而产生高强度、稳定的加载响应。值得注意的是,失效离域增强了复合材料的能量耗散,达到了与缠绕纤维管相当的比能量吸收值。最后,我们证明了IPC中的应力状态可以通过几何设计来调整,并介绍了一个优化结构复合材料力学响应的例子。总而言之,这项工作弥合了机械高效复合材料和可调建筑材料之间的差距,为新型坚固、有弹性和可编程材料奠定了基础。
Seis mic metamaterials for Rayleigh wave attenuation: A novel concept of soil-embedded water-tank metabarrier

瑞利波衰减的地震超材料:土埋水箱超屏障的新概念
In the context of ongoing research on seis mic metamaterials, this paper proposes a novel metabarrier for seis mic Rayleigh wave attenuation, conceived as a periodic array of soil-embedded cylindrical water tanks acting as resonant units below the soil surface. A theoretical framework is developed, where the dynamics of the water tank is treated by a classical 3D linear, pressure-based model for fluid–structure interaction under earthquake and soil is idealized as homogeneous and isotropic medium, in agreement with similar studies on seis mic metamaterials. The dispersion diagram obtained from the Floquet-Bloch dispersion ana lysis exhibits relevant band gaps in the low frequency range of seis mic Rayleigh waves, as well as in the higher frequency range of Rayleigh waves caused by other ground vibration sources as, e.g., railway or road traffic. Frequency-domain an alyses of a soil domain with a finite array of water tanks validate the band gaps and show considerable attenuation. An appealing feature of the proposed metabarrier is that the water-tank resonant units can be tuned by varying the water level; indeed, it is shown that, in this manner, opening frequencies and sizes of the band gaps can be changed. This is a remarkable advantage over alternative seis mic metamaterials that, in general, are not designed to be tunable. All calculations are implemented in COMSOL Multiphysics.
在正在进行的地震超材料研究的背景下,本文提出了一种用于地震瑞利波衰减的新型超屏障,该屏障被设想为嵌入土壤的圆柱形水箱的周期性阵列,作为土壤表面下的谐振单元。建立了一个理论框架,其中水箱的动力学用经典的三维线性、基于压力的模型来处理,该模型将地震和土壤下的流固相互作用理想化为均匀和各向同性介质,与地震超材料的类似研究一致。由Floquet-Bloch频散分析得到的频散图显示,在瑞利地震波的低频范围内,以及由其他地面振动源(如铁路或道路交通)引起的瑞利地震波的高频范围内,都存在相关的带隙。用有限水箱阵列进行的土域频域分析验证了带隙,并显示出相当大的衰减。所提出的超屏障的一个吸引人的特征是水箱谐振单元可以通过改变水位来调谐;事实上,通过这种方式,可以改变带隙的打开频率和大小。这是替代地震超材料的一个显著优势,一般来说,这些材料的设计不是可调的。所有的计算都在COMSOL Multiphysics中实现。

非弹性本构人工神经网络的广义对偶势:有限应变下的JAX实现
We present a methodology for designing a generalized dual potential, or pseudo potential, for inelastic Constitutive Artificial Neural Networks (iCANNs). This potential, expressed in terms of stress invariants, inherently satisfies thermodynamic consistency for large deformations. In comparison to our previous work, the new potential captures a broader spectrum of material behaviors, including pressure-sensitive inelasticity. To this end, we revisit the underlying thermodynamic framework of iCANNs for finite strain inelasticity and derive conditions for constructing a convex, zero-valued, and non-negative dual potential. To embed these principles in a neural network, we detail the architecture’s design, ensuring a priori compliance with thermodynamics. To evaluate the proposed architecture, we study its performance and limitations discovering visco-elastic material behavior, though the method is not limited to visco-elasticity. In this context, we investigate different aspects in the strategy of discovering inelastic materials. Our results indicate that the novel architecture robustly discovers interpretable models and parameters, while autonomously revealing the degree of inelasticity. The iCANN framework, implemented in JAX, is publicly accessible at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.14894687.
我们提出了一种设计非弹性本构人工神经网络(icann)的广义对偶势或伪势的方法。这种势,用应力不变量表示,本质上满足大变形的热力学一致性。与我们之前的工作相比,新的电位捕获了更广泛的材料行为,包括压敏非弹性。为此,我们回顾了icann有限应变非弹性的基本热力学框架,并推导了构造凸、零值和非负对偶势的条件。为了将这些原理嵌入到神经网络中,我们详细介绍了体系结构的设计,以确保先验地符合热力学。为了评估所提出的体系结构,我们研究了它的性能和局限性,发现粘弹性材料的行为,尽管该方法并不局限于粘弹性。在此背景下,我们研究了发现非弹性材料策略的不同方面。我们的研究结果表明,这种新架构可以健壮地发现可解释的模型和参数,同时自主地揭示非弹性程度。iCANN框架以JAX实现,可在https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.14894687公开访问。

重复内爆作用下钢板结构响应的实验、数值和无因次分析研究
Internal blasts are more destructive than air blasts due to the multiple reflection overlays of explosive shock waves in the confined space. This paper conducts experimental, numerical, and dimensionless an alysis studies for the structural response of steel plates subjected to repeated confined blasts. A couple of experiments, including different charge masses, stand-off distances, and blast number, are conducted to investigate the response of steel plates to a confined blast device. Experimental results show that the deflection of the target plate close to the blast point was s maller. The progressive deflection is decreased for repeated blasts. Then, a numerical simulation model is built further to investigate the structural response characteristics for repeated confined blasts. Finally, an empirical model is proposed to predict the central permanent displacement of the target plate under repeated confined blasts. This model considers the material and structure parameters of the target plates, the charge parameters, the local properties of the blast loading, and the influence of the venting. Results show that this model can predict the midpoint displacements of the target plates well.
由于爆炸冲击波在密闭空间内的多重反射叠加,内爆比空爆具有更强的破坏力。本文对反复密闭爆炸作用下钢板的结构响应进行了实验、数值和无因次分析研究。通过不同装药质量、离爆距离和爆炸次数的实验,研究了钢板对密闭爆炸装置的响应。实验结果表明,靠近爆炸点的靶板挠度较小。对于重复爆炸,渐进式偏转会减少。在此基础上,进一步建立数值模拟模型,研究重复密闭爆炸作用下结构的响应特性。最后,提出了重复密闭爆炸作用下靶板中心永久位移的经验模型。该模型考虑了靶板的材料和结构参数、装药参数、爆炸载荷的局部特性以及通风的影响。结果表明,该模型能较好地预测靶板的中点位移。

基于相变的可调谐声子晶体和超材料研究进展
Phononic crystals (PCs) and metamaterials (MMs) have emerged as innovative platforms for manipulating acoustic and elastic waves through tailored microstructures. However, their adaptability to dynamic environments is limited due to the conventionally fixed properties after fabrication, leading to the growing demand for tunable and reconfigurable structures. Phase transitions offer a promising mechanis m to enable significant variations in the properties of PCs and MMs. Nevertheless, a comprehensive review of the phase transition-enabled strategies is urgently needed to summarize current advancements and guide future developments. This review systematically assesses recent theoretical and experimental progress in phase transition-based PCs and MMs, focusing on material systems including shape memory alloys (S MAs), shape memory polymers (S MPs), ferroelectric materials, and liquid-solid phase-change materials (PCMs). Key mechanis ms are elaborated, including martensitic transitions, glass transitions, ferroelectric phase transitions, and solid-liquid phase transitions in various PCMs. Building on these mechanis ms, state-of-the-art design strategies for enabling active wave manipulation and novel functional behaviors, employing S MA-based systems, S MP-based systems, ferroelectric phase-change systems, and solid-liquid phase-change systems, are critically reviewed. In addition, advanced modeling and fabrication techniques to predict the material properties of PCMs and fabricate desired structures are comprehensively discussed. Finally, future perspectives are highlighted to provide detailed guidelines for developing high-performance PCs and MMs.

基于ANCF的MFC驱动柔性仿生尾鳍水下振荡建模与分析
With the deepening bionic fish research, a novel biomimetic fish design driven by s mart materials has gradually emerged. When used as actuators, macro fiber composites (MFC) exhibit excellent flexibility and piezoelectric drive properties. Therefore, the flexible biomimetic fish based on MFC has broad application prospects. However, there are two problems that need to be solved: the multiphysics coupling (solid-fluid-electric) in flexible caudal fin and the electromechanical coupling of MFC actuators in the process of large swing swimming. In this paper, the caudal body-caudal fin (BCF) propulsion system driven by MFC is studied, and the main driving caudal fin is simplified into a substrate with MFC patches on both sides, and its dynamics model is derived by absolute nodal coordinate formulation (ANCF). The MFC constitutive model considering electromechanical coupling effect is introduced to calculate the electromechanical coupling of a caudal fin model. The fluid-structure coupling of the caudal fin model is calculated by using the theory of immersion boundary-lattice Boltzmann method. A five-layer element which considers the epoxy glue layer is used to address the deformation coupling issue. The generalized α method is used to solve the dynamic equations of the system, and the numerical simulation of the dynamic response of the caudal fin model under multiple physical fields is realized. Experimental validation demonstrates excellent agreement between theory and measurement, with 3.98% error in distal end displacement. This method can accurately characterize the response of MFC biomimetic fish under electric drive within a flow field. The research results of this paper have theoretical and application value for the design of flexible biomimetic fishes.
随着仿生鱼研究的深入,一种以智能材料为驱动的新型仿生鱼设计逐渐出现。宏纤维复合材料(MFC)作为致动器具有优异的柔性和压电驱动性能。因此,基于MFC的柔性仿生鱼具有广阔的应用前景。然而,柔性尾鳍的多物理场耦合(固-流-电)和MFC作动器在大摆动游动过程中的机电耦合是需要解决的两个问题。本文研究了由MFC驱动的尾鳍-尾鳍(BCF)推进系统,将主驱动尾鳍简化为两侧有MFC贴片的基片,并采用绝对节点坐标公式(ANCF)建立了其动力学模型。引入考虑机电耦合效应的MFC本构模型来计算尾鳍模型的机电耦合。采用浸没边界-晶格玻尔兹曼方法计算了尾鳍模型的流固耦合。采用考虑环氧胶层的五层单元来解决变形耦合问题。采用广义α法求解系统动力学方程,实现了多物理场作用下尾鳍模型动态响应的数值模拟。实验验证理论与测量结果吻合良好,远端位移误差为3.98%。该方法可以准确表征电驱动下MFC仿生鱼在流场中的响应。本文的研究成果对柔性仿生鱼的设计具有一定的理论和应用价值。
