Abstract(2048) PDF(683)
Abstract:
By using "four shaft concept" a balance system for the second order reciprocating inertia forces of the plane crankshaft eigbt-cylinder V-type internal combustion enr,ines was worked out as reported in the paper[1].In paper[2] we have been able to acquire a "two shaft balance scheme" as a degeneracy of the"four shaft balance system" by pur suiting a far roundabout way.By the way as a mathematical by-product it has been met possibly a new curve which could be named,perhaps,as "The Degenerated hour-Leave.d Rose".which was intended to be discussed in detail with a special paper.

Ouyang Chang
1980, 1(2): 159-166.
Abstract(1512) PDF(546)
Abstract:
In engineering fracture analysis,random boundary imperfections as notches or cracks are common and important.In this paper,we have worked out a class of methods for solving two-dimensional problems of random boundary notches and/or cracks by an extension of Muskhelishvili's method.Through successive applications of analytic conti-nuation,Laurent series expansion and conformal mapping,we finally arrived at a set of linear algebraic equations governing the problem,Then standard com puting program of linear algebraic eq nations may he used to com plete the solution.It is noticed that the prescn method may give solutions for the cases in which there are certain smooth load distrihutmns on the notch surfaces.

1980, 1(2): 167-176.
Abstract(1712) PDF(804)
Abstract:
In this paper is discussed the difference method for the solution of singular perturbation problems for the elliptic equations,involving small parameter in the higher derivatives,As ε=0,the original equations are degenerated into the parabalic equations.Authors constructed special difference scheme by means of the boundary layer properties of the solutions of these problems and investigated the convergence of this scheme and asymptotic behaviour of the solutions,Finally,a numerical example is given.

Ye Kai-yuan, Hsu Chin-yun
1980, 1(2): 177-199.
Abstract(1565) PDF(635)
Abstract:
In this paper,under assumption that temperature is linearly distributed along the thickness of the shell.we deal with problems as indicated in the title and obtain general solutions of them which are expressed in analytic form.In the first part,we investigate free vibration of circular shallo w spherical shells with circular holes at the center under usual arbitrary boundary conditions.As an example,we calculate fundamental natural frequency of a circular shallow spherical shell whose edge is fixed(m=0).Results we get are expressed in analytic form and check well with E,Reissner's[1].Method for calculating frequency equation is recently suggested by Chien Wei-zang and is to be introduced in appendix 3.In the second part,we investigate forced vibration of shells as indicated in the title under arbitrary harmonic temperature field and arbitrary harmonic dynamic normal load.In the third part,we investigate forced vibration of the above mentioned shells with initial conditions under arbitrary unsteady temperature field and arbitrary normal load.In appendix 1 and 2,we discuss how to express displacement boundary conditions witli stress function and boundary conditions in the case m=1.

Miao Tian-de, Cheng Chang-jun
1980, 1(2): 221-235.
Abstract(2092) PDF(820)
Abstract:
Reissner equations of elastic plate are derived on the bases of incomplete generalized variational principle of complementary energy.The stress function ψ is obtained from the variational calculation in the form of Lagrange multiplier.The structure of solution of Reissner equations is thus determined.On the bases of these discussions,we obtained a simplified theory,in which the equations of equilibrium involving the shearing influence can be reduced into a fourth order differential equation similar to those of classic plate theory.

Abstract(1539) PDF(731)
Abstract:
The aim of this paper is to give a more or less general treatment of vibration of elastic non-uniform strut,such as composite wooden screw-propeller.In this paper,elastic modulus,cross-sectional area,and mass per unit length are considered to be of exponential functions of longitudinal coordinates,A general solution is obtained together with these three para meters,which are fou nd to be the main factors closely related to the frequencies of free vibration of such an elastic-non-uniform strut.
