    Numerical simulation and constructal theory applied for geometric optimization of thin perforated plates subject to elastic buckling
    (2013) Correia, Anderson Luis Garcia; Helbig, Daniel; Real, Mauro de Vasconcellos; Santos, Elizaldo Domingues dos; Isoldi, Liércio André
    Many elements in engineering are formed by thin plates. Hulls and decks of ships are examples of application. These elements can have holes that serve as inspection port, access or even to weight reduction. The presence of holes causes a redistribution of the membrane stresses in the plate, significantly altering their stability. In this paper the Bejan’s Constructal Theory was employed to discover the best geometry of thin perforated plates submitted to elastic buckling phenomenon. To study this behavior simply supported rectangular plates with a centered elliptical perforation were analyzed. The purpose was to obtain the optimal geometry which maximizes the critical buckling load. For this, the degrees of freedom H/L (ratio between width and length of the plate) and H0/L0 (ratio between the characteristic dimensions of the hole) were varied. Moreover, different values of hole volume fraction ϕ (ratio between the perforation volume and the massive plate volume) were also investigated. A computational modeling, based on the Finite Element Method (FEM), was used for assessing the plate buckling load. The results showed that Constructal Design can be employed not only in the heat transfer and fluid flow problems, but also to define the best shapes in solid mechanics problems.

    Constructal design of perforated steel plates subject to linear elastic and nonlinear elastoplastic buckling
    (2013) Helbig, Daniel; Real, Mauro de Vasconcellos; Correia, Anderson Luis Garcia; Santos, Elizaldo Domingues dos; Isoldi, Liércio André
    Steel plates are used in a great variety of engineering applications, such as deck and bottom of ship structures, and platforms of offshore structures. Cutouts are often provided in plate elements for inspection, maintenance, and service purposes. So, the design of shape and size of these holes is significant. Usually these plates are subjected to axial compressive forces which make them prone to instability or buckling. If the plate is slender, the buckling is elastic. However, if the plate is sturdy, it buckles in the plastic range causing the so-called inelastic (or elasto-plastic) buckling.Therefore, the goal of this work is to obtain the optimal geometry which maximizes the buckling load for steel plates with a centered elliptical perforation when subjected to linear and nonlinear buckling phenomenon by means of Constructal Design. To do so, numerical models were developed in ANSYS software to evaluate the elastic and elasto-plastic buckling loads of simply supported and uniaxially loaded rectangular plates with elliptical cutouts. The results indicated that the optimal shapes were obtained in accordance with the Constructal Principle of "Optimal Distribution of Imperfections", showing that the Constructal Design method can be satisfactorily employed in mechanic of materials problems.

    Otimização geométrica de placas com enrijecedores submetidas à flexão
    (2012) Silveira, Thiago da; Correia, Anderson Luis Garcia; Silva, Caio César de Castro da; Rocha, Luiz Alberto de Oliveira; Real, Mauro de Vasconcellos; Santos, Elizaldo Domingues dos; Isoldi, Liércio André
    As placas enrijecidas são muito utilizadas em estruturas navais. Quando estas estruturas estão sob forte ação de cargas de flexão, é necessário que os reforços contribuam para a redução da deflexão da placa. O Método de Elementos Finitos (MEF) pode ser utilizado para obter os valores da deflexão resultante de cargas de flexão sobre a placa. Para otimizar a geometria da placa enrijecida faz-se uso da Teoria Constructal desenvolvida por Adrian Bejan. Com as geometrias otimizadas, é possível a obtenção de deflexões que apresentam melhoria de aproximadamente 84% em relação às placas sem enrijecedores.
