| − | '''Abstract''': The nonlinear dynamic response and buckling of a simple, two degree of freedom system is investigated in this work under an impulsive load that simulates a nearby detonation-like explosion. The system includes force and moment springs in much the same way as membrane and bending effects develop in shell structures. The static response is first obtained to evaluate bifurcation states and nonlinear equilibrium paths including geometric imperfections. The dynamic problem is modeled using Lagrange equation of motion. The nonlinear dynamic response under impulsive load is next computed for the perfect configuration under increasing load levels. The presence of quasi-bifurcations is detected using stability coefficients based on second order derivatives of the total potential energy. For a given load level, it is found that one stability coefficient vanishes at the first maximum in the displacement versus time trajectory, at which the system passes through a state of zero velocity. This occurs for the same displacement configuration as in the static buckling mode. The results show that quasi-bifurcation loads thus obtained are independent of the amplitude of the geometric imperfection considered but display high sensitivity to changes in the membrane to bending stiffness ratio.

| − | '''Resumen''': La respuesta dinámica nolineal y el pandeo de un sistema simple de dos grados de libertad se estudia en este trabajo bajo carga impulsiva que simula una explosión cercana. El sistema incluye resortes de fuerza y momento que representan efectos membranales y flexionales tal como los que se desarrollan en cáscaras. Primero se obtiene la respuesta estatica para evaluar bifurcacion y trayectorias de equilibrio nolineales incluyendo imperfecciones geométricas. El problema dinamico se modela usando las ecuaciones de movimiento de Lagrange. Se computa la respuesta dinamica nolineal bajo cargas impulsivas para la configuracion perfecta bajo niveles crecientes de carga. Se detecta la presencia de cuasi-bifurcaciones mediante coeficientes de estabilidad basados en derivadas segundas de la energía. Para un nivel determinado de carga se encuentra que un coeficiente de estabilidad se anula en el primer maximo en la trayectoria de desplazamiento versus tiempo, en cuyo caso la velocidad es nula, lo cual ocurre para la misma configuracion de desplazamiento que en el modo de pandeo estatico. Los resultados demustran que las cargas de cuasi-bifurcacion son independiente de la imperfeccion geometrica considerada pero muestran gran sensibilidad frente a cambios en la relacion de rigideces membranal versus flexional.

| − | ==INTRODUCTION==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | This paper investigates the dynamic buckling of a simple, two degree of freedom (DOF) model, under an impulsive load in order to explore the type of analysis that should be considered when addressing shell problems under blast pressures due to explosions. The specific area of interest of the authors is the response of tanks in oil refineries and oil storage facilities (Godoy 2016).
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Explosions have been identified as the most frequent accidents affecting the oil industry. Interest in the behavior of oil storage tanks under blast loads caused by explosions has intensified during the last decade following the notorious accident at a tank farm located in Buncefield, UK (2008) and another one in Bayamon, Puerto Rico (Batista-Abreu and Godoy 2011). Evidence from field observations in Buncefield and other places where explosions occurred indicates that permanent damage takes place in thin walled structures, involving buckling and plasticity (Taveau 2011; Noret et al. 2012).
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Understanding and modeling this class of problems requires computation of the nonlinear dynamic response under short duration impulsive loads. Although the nonlinear dynamic analysis of structures under impulsive loads is part of the state of the art in analytical and finite element approaches (Nayfeh 1979; Nayfeh and Balachandran 2004), such studies may sometimes be obscured by the complexity of the problem under consideration, whereas the interpretation of results and the evaluation of stability to identify dynamic buckling are topics still subject to discussion. Thus, to improve our understanding on the mechanics of behavior of shells under blast loads it may be convenient to perform studies on much simpler analogous structural systems, for which the response can be modeled using analytical tools.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The buckling of structures under step or impulsive loading has been the subject of research since the 1960s. Reviews of dynamic buckling criteria were presented for example in the books by Simitses (1990), Amabili (2008), and Kubiak (2013). By analogy with the static case, we shall define that a fundamental motion is the trajectory in a plot of a representative DOF with respect to time, computed at a given load level.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Two forms of dynamic buckling which are relevant to the present study have been identified in the literature:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | (a) Instability in the mode of the fundamental motion, associated with large amplitude oscillations. Forced vibrations are investigated in this approach using nonlinear dynamics and a criterion is employed to assess the occurrence of unstable oscillations. The most common criterion employed in the literature was originally proposed by Budiansky and Roth (1962) and refined by Budiansky (1967), in which the dynamic response is first computed for various load levels and a plot of load versus amplitude of a representative DOF is constructed. By analogy with the static case, this plot is here called a pseudo-equilibrium path. Dynamic buckling is identified whenever there is a jump in the pseudo-equilibrium path, i.e. when a small increment in load causes a non-proportional (large) increment in transient displacements. This criterion was originally developed for step loads, but its application to impulsive loads (such as those associated with explosions) is less evident. Other forms of identification of this type of instability use a phase-space diagram (displacement versus velocity).
| |
| − |
| |
| − | In some cases, it may be difficult to identify dynamic buckling from changes in displacements. For seismic excitation, Virella et al. (2006) considered changes in the slope of the pseudo-equilibrium path, so that dynamic buckling was said to occur whenever a small increment in load causes a large change in slope. This approach was subsequently employed for example by Buratti and Tavano (2014), and reviewed by Kubiak (2013).
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Finally, Kounadis et al. (1989) studied a one DOF system together with an energy criterion to identify dynamic buckling.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | (b) Instability in a mode which is orthogonal to the fundamental motion. This behavior is known as quasi-bifurcation from a fundamental trajectory and was originally identified by Lee (1977, 1981). As stated before, the motion of an undisturbed system shows oscillations in a mode here identified as the fundamental mode. But there are cases in which a second mode (which is orthogonal to the fundamental mode) grows at a critical time, leading to a quasi-bifurcation; at first this takes the form of small random oscillations, but a divergent motion is finally achieved. This quasi-bifurcation initially occurs in a mode with the same configuration as that provided by the static critical mode under the same load distribution. Further, Lee (1981) identified that the dynamic post-bifurcation mode may change in time.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The identification of a quasi-bifurcation state may be carried out either:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | (i) By establishing conditions at which dynamic bifurcation should occur, such as in the works of Kounadis et al. (1989), and Simitses (1990). The relationship between static and dynamic instability was explored by Simitses (1990) who stated that when the dynamic response along the fundamental motion reaches a deflected configuration which is coincident with the configuration at static buckling, then a jump occurs into another equilibrium state.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | (ii) By following stability indicators along the fundamental motion, such as frequencies of vibration, static eigenvalue problems, tangent matrix or, as in the present case, static stability coefficients. Various authors (Kroplin and Dinkle 1986; Kleiber et al. 1987; Burmeister and Ramm 1990; Kratzig and Eller 1992) implemented strategies to evaluate stability along a fundamental motion.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | This paper focuses on quasi-bifurcation phenomena which is believed to occur in shells under impulsive loads due to an explosion and which may be instrumental in explaining the failure modes observed in oil industry infrastructure.

| |
| − | ==CASE-STUDY OF TWO DOF SYSTEM==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | To illustrate the dynamic instability process under an impulsive loading, a simple two DOF system is considered in this paper. This system was originally proposed by Croll and Walker (1972) to investigate static buckling, and a similar one was studied by Simitses (1990).
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The system is shown in Figure 1, and is formed by three rigid bars of length ''L'' with an initial configuration at angles ''α''<sub>0</sub> and ''β''<sub>0</sub>, and with rotational springs of modulus ''C'' and a line spring of modulus ''K''. Notice that ''C'' and ''K'' are representative of bending and membrane action in a shell or arch structure but do not have a direct relationship with them. The mass of the system is assumed to be lumped at the hinges.

| |
| − |
| |
| − | To perform computations, both static and dynamic, values have been assigned to variables by adopting ''L''=1, ''C''=1, ''K''=1000, ''α''<sub>0</sub>=''β''<sub>0</sub>=0.2rad, ''m''=10. For this set of data, Croll and Walker (1972) obtained a static nonlinear equilibrium path (α=β), reaching an unstable limit point, and a bifurcation (unstable, symmetric) at a load well before the limit point. Using the present algorithm, the results indicate a limit point at ''P<sup>L</sup>''=6.23 in a mode given by ''α<sup>L</sup>''=''β<sup>L</sup>''=0.0857rad, whereas bifurcation is obtained at ''P<sup>B</sup>''=1.18 with a configuration given by ''α<sup>B</sup>''=''β<sup>B</sup>''=7.64×10<sup>-3</sup>rad (Figure 2). Static results are in agreement with those obtained by Croll and Walker (1972) using perturbation techniques.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Based on the results of the theory of elastic stability (Croll and Walker 1972, Thompson and Hunt 1973), it is possible to state that, under static load, the present system experiences unstable behavior at ''P<sup>B</sup>''. Because there are no stable equilibrium states emerging from the bifurcation state, then the system will experience a dynamic jump in search of a stable equilibrium configuration; this dynamic jump is usually associated with large displacements and strains in real systems, with the consequence that plasticity and material failure usually occur before a new equilibrium state is reached.

Results are plotted in Figure 3 in the form of ''P'' versus displacement ''α''; for example, for ''ξ'' = 0.025 the equilibrium path departs from bifurcation behavior and a maximum is reached at ''α<sup>M</sup>''= 0.05rad with ''P<sup>M</sup>''= 1.04. Unstable behavior (leading to a descending path) is found to occur beyond the maximum, leading to a dynamic jump. For increasing values of ''ξ'' the maximum occurs at decreasing values of ''P<sup>M</sup>'' and increasing ''α<sup>M</sup>''. Also, the values of ''α<sup>M</sup>'' are significantly larger than ''α<sup>B</sup>'' in this case.

| |
| − | Figure 4 shows the maximum load in Figure 3 (normalized with respect to ''P<sup>B</sup>'') as a function of the imperfection, i.e. a static imperfection-sensitivity plot. Notice that there is a large drop in the maximum load that the system can attain for increasing values of ''ξ''.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The equilibrium path ceases to display a maximum for values of ''ξ'' larger than 0.6, so that for values of ''ξ''>0.6 the behavior is no longer associated with bifurcation but represents a set of monotonically increasing stable equilibrium states. The range of interest in our case is for systems that exhibit unstable behavior under static load, and this occurs for ''ξ''<0.6.

At this state along the fundamental motion the system displays the same conditions as in the static case and thus exhibits the same unstable behavior. </span>
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * These previous remarks are the condition identified by Lee (1977, 1981) for a quasi-bifurcation, and explored using other stability parameters by Kleiber (1987). It may be concluded that the system reaches a quasi-bifurcation at ''P'' = 34.88 and departs from the fundamental motion given by ''α''(''t'') = ''β''(''t'') to enter into a bifurcated state with ''α'' ≠ ''β'' (which is the eigenmode in the static problem).
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * Because the static bifurcation is unstable, a dynamic jump occurs at this quasi-bifurcation state.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * For higher loads, i.e., ''P'' > 34.88, at least one stability coefficient has a negative value.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | This mechanism contributes to explain why large deflections and plasticity are observed in real structures under impulsive loads due to an explosion: they are caused by a dynamic jump at a quasi-bifurcation.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Notice that dynamic instability in a mode with ''α''(''t'') = ''β''(''t'') (as predicted by the criterion due to Budiansky and Roth (1962), and Budiansky (1967) does not occur for this load level. An investigation of the oscillations along the fundamental motion shows that a much higher load level ''P'' is required to reach dynamic instability. Such behavior is of no interest in the present study because a quasi-bifurcation occurs well before an oscillatory instability.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | A plot of the DOF at quasi-bifurcation versus the load level is shown in Figure 8. Unlike problems controlled by instability along the fundamental motion, as described by Budianksy (1967), in which a sharp change in maximum displacements is obtained for a small change in the load parameter, in the present case a smooth nonlinear curve is obtained, with a decreasing tangent for increasing values of ''P''.

| |
| − |
| |
| − | ==Energy at bifurcation and quasi-bifurcation states==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | To better understand ways to estimate dynamic quasi-bifurcations under impulsive loads, it is worth considering the energy involved in the process.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | As shown in Figure 7(a), for a peak load ''P''<sub>0</sub>''<sup>D</sup> = ''34.88 the configuration at the critical time ''t<sub>c</sub> = ''0.57s reaches a displacement field given by ''α = β = ''7.6×10<sup>-3</sup>rad.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * Because this is the same configuration as in the bifurcation state under static loading, then the strain energy ''U<sup>D</sup>''is the same as ''U<sup>B</sup>'', i.e. ''U<sup>D</sup> = U<sup>B</sup> = ''4.5×10<sup>-3</sup>.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * Along the fundamental motion shown in Figure 7(a), energy conservation under impulsive loading requires that ''T + U ''='' constant''. To evaluate the constant we know that at time ''t = 0'', the strain energy is zero, ''U(t ''= 0'') ''='' ''0, and the above expression reduces to ''T(t ''= 0'') ''='' T''<sup>0</sup>. Thus, conservation reads ''T ''+'' U ''='' T''<sup>0</sup>''.''
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * The velocity is zero at ''t = t<sub>c</sub>'', and the kinetic energy becomes zero, so that the conservation of energy becomes ''U'' (''t ''='' t<sub>c</sub>) ''='' U<sup>D</sup> ''='' T''<sup>0</sup>.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * Finally, it follows that quasi-bifurcation is reached if

| |
| − |
| |
| − | In summary, computation of the elastic energy when the system buckles under a static load can be used to identify the initial velocity and impulse under a blast load and thus estimate a dynamic quasi-bifurcation. This energy approach may be extremely helpful for multi-degree of freedom systems because less computations are required, provided the deformed shape of the systems in static and dynamic behavior are approximately the same.

| − | '''INFLUENCE OF GEOMETRIC IMPERFECTIONS'''
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Lee states that “when the system is subjected to initial disturbances however small in amplitude but having a component leading to the eigenmode, the component of the deviated motion having the eigenmode grows most rapidly” (Lee 1981). To explore this problem, the initial shape of the two DOF system is modified to include a geometric imperfection with the shape of the static eigenmode. The influence of imperfections in the geometry is explored in this section in a way similar to what was done for the perfect dynamic case in Section 4. The imperfection is again written in terms of the parameter ''ξ'' (Eq. 9), taking extreme values between 0 and 0.6.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Consider first an imperfection amplitude ''ξ'' = 0.4. According to what was obtained in the static case, this value of ''ξ'' is still in the region affected by static unstable bifurcation, and a maximum in the imperfect equilibrium path is reached at ''P<sup>M</sup>''(''ξ'' = 0.4) = 0.42 with a displacement of ''α<sup>M</sup>''(''ξ'' = 0.4) = 0.11rad (Figure 3). Notice that for the imperfect system both values of the load and displacement at the maximum in the equilibrium path change with respect to the perfect system. In comparison with the perfect case (for which ''P<sup>B</sup> ''= 1.18 and ''α<sup>B</sup> ''= 7.6×10<sup>-3</sup>rad), the singularity in the static path appears at a lower load, but with a larger displacement amplitude.

| |
| − | For ''P''<sub>0</sub>= 6.23 in the imperfect system, the transient response indicates that the two DOF do not oscillate in-phase because they start from different initial values and undergo an amplification of this difference in time, as shown in Figure 9(a). The stability coefficients in Figure 9 (b) are all positive, thus indicating stable behavior at points corresponding to maximum values in Figure 9 (a).

On the contrary, shorter times of positive pulse duration are associated with large differences between static and dynamic results. </span>

| |
| − |
| |
| − | The present results for a simple two DOF system attempt to highlight the mechanism by which thin-walled structures may experience plasticity and even collapse under an impulsive load caused by a nearby explosion.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | For a system that has an unstable critical state under static load (an unstable symmetric bifurcation in the present study), a quasi-bifurcation has been shown to occur if the static critical displacement configuration is reached at a state with zero velocity in the dynamic motion under an impulse. For the present two DOF model, stability at a point with zero velocity was evaluated by means of static stability coefficients. Other forms of stability evaluation may be more convenient for multiple degrees of freedom systems, such as natural frequencies or singularities in the tangent stiffness matrix.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Studies of imperfection-sensitivity of the present system indicate that there is moderate sensitivity of quasi-bifurcation loads, in the order of less than 20% change between perfect and imperfect response. The sensitivity with respect to changes in the stiffness parameters has also been studied, and one can see that low sensitivity is detected for static bifurcation loads, but significant changes are computed for quasi-bifurcation loads. This design-sensitivity is also expected to occur in thin-walled structures.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Finally, the pulse duration, as reflected by ''t''<sub>0</sub>, plays a key role in the evaluation of quasi-bifurcation. For ''t''<sub>0</sub> in the order of the natural period of vibration, the response is almost the same as in the static case or step loading; but for small values of ''t''<sub>0</sub> there are large differences between quasi-bifurcation and bifurcation loads. For example, for ''t''<sub>0</sub>'' = 0.1T''<sub>1</sub>, the value of quasi-bifurcation load is more than 10 times the critical bifurcation load.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Following the work of Simitses (1990), when the initial kinetic energy associated with a blast load reaches the value of the energy of a static unstable equilibrium position, then there is a movement away from equilibrium which is identified as dynamic buckling. This approach has been investigated in the paper and provides results within 15% of those obtained by the nonlinear transient analysis. This is a lower bound to the quasi-bifurcation load, and it has the advantage that it does not require computation of the transient results.
