A number of studies revealed the possible eastward movement of the Tibetan Plateau low-pressure system in summer and indicated the enhancement effect of this process on the southwest vortex in the Sichuan Basin, which can induce strong convective precipitation and flood events in China. In this study, a numerical simulation of a southwest vortex rainstorm process was performed. The results show that the low-pressure system originated from the Tibetan Plateau affects the southwest vortex mainly at the middle level, causing the strength increase of southwest vortex (SWV), and acts as a connection between the positive vorticity centers at the upper and lower layers. For the microscopic cloud structure, the vertical updraft of the cloud cluster embedded in the SWV increases as the low-pressure system from the plateau arrives at the Sichuan Basin. Vapor and liquid cloud water at the lower level are transported upward, based on which the ice cloud at the upper level and the warm cloud at the lower level are joined to create favorable conditions for the growth of ice crystals. As the ice crystals grow up, snow and graupel particles form, which substantially elevates the precipitation. This effect leads to the rapid development of SWV rainstorm clouds and the occurrence of precipitation. In addition to the effect of the plateau vortex, the subsequent merging of the convective clouds is another important factor for heavy rainfall because it also leads to development of convective clouds, causing heavy rainfall.

In this paper, the locally thinned three-way structure under internal pressure is analyzed based on the theory of plastic strengthening effect and limit analysis. A finite element model is presented through ANSYS commercial software to simulate the mechanical properties of orthogonal and oblique three-way structures. This paper systematically analyses how the shape and size of the thinning effect the plastic limit load of the pipe and what is the typical failure mode of plastic failure. Some valuable conclusions are drawn, which provide a useful reference for the design and production of the tee pipe.

In this paper, the thermal analysis and structural analysis of MLCC are carried out by using the commercial finite element software ANSYS. By comparing the thermal-mechanical analysis results of the structural optimization models of different schemes, the optimal optimization scheme is found. The model calculated the time required for MLCC to reach temperature stability considering thermal convection and heat conduction, and obtained the thermal deformation and thermal stress distribution of MLCC element. Based on the analysis results of MLCC original model, the thermal analysis under different wave soldering temperatures was carried out. Based on the simulated transient results, the structure and materials of MLCC key components were optimized. The results provide a basis for the optimal design of MLCC.

Coupling dynamic stiffness is a key parameter in vibrational analysis of complex coupled structures, for both estimation of structural vibrational characteristics and design of vibration control. An indirect method of inverse substructuring analysis to identify the stiffness is studied further by using frequency response functions that are tested on the models of coupled structures. The theoretical effectiveness of this method is here verified by two 'mass-rubber' ex- perimental models constructed as two-level substructures with mono-coupling and tri-coupling connections, and the identification error is also analyzed. The coincidence of numerical and experimental results show that the indirect method has better feasibility and effectiveness than the existing direct method of inverse substructuring analysis, and with more applicable con- ditions and higher acceptable precision in determining the stiffness. It provides more solid theoretical basis for the stiffness identification by inverse substructuring analysis.

Owing to its viscoelastic nature, tendon exhibits stress rate-dependent breaking and stiffness function. A Kelvin-Voigt viscoelastic shear lag model is proposed to illustrate the micromechanical behavior of the tendon under dynamic tensile conditions. Theoretical closed-form expressions are derived to predict the deformation and stress transfer between fibrils and interfibrillar matrix while tendon is dynamically stretched. The results from the analytical solutions demonstrate that how the fibril overlap length and fibril volume fraction affect the stress transfer and mechanical properties of tendon. We find that the viscoelastic property of interfibrillar matrix mainly results in collagen fibril failure under fast loading rate or creep rupture of tendon. However, discontinuous fibril model and hierarchical structure of tendon ensure relative sliding under slow loading rate, helping dissipate energy and protecting fibril from damage, which may be a key reason why regularly staggering alignment microstructure is widely selected in nature. According to the growth, injury, healing and healed process of tendon observed by many researchers, the conclusions presented in this paper agrees well with the experimental findings. Additionally, the emphasis of this paper is on micromechanical behavior of tendon, whereas this analytical viscoelastic shear lag model can be equally applicable to other soft or hard tissues, owning the similar microstructure.

In order to analyze the causes of cracking in abutments subject to concrete shrinkage and temperature variation during the construction process and to determine factors affecting the mechanical properties of the abutment, nonlinear calculations capturing abutment behavior are conducted with Midas/FEA software. Using these calculations, the cracking mechanism is identified, and the influence of the evaluated factors is analyzed. It is concluded that the deformation between the pile cap and abutment backwall as constrained by a pile foundation when subjected to concrete shrinkage and temperature changes is the basic cause of abutment cracks during construction;these cracks form over the piles and develop upward. For a given reinforcement ratio, the distribution of horizontal crack-control steel using small, closely spaced bars is more beneficial. When pile-bearing capacity meets the standard, the width of the generated cracks tends to decrease with the decrease in the diameter of the piles. The existence of a postcast strip in the abutment backwall also contributes to the decrease in the depth of the crack. Finally, the impact of age difference between the pile cap concrete and abutment backwall concrete on cracking is inconsequential.
