Study on constraint of mixed mode crack and failure assessment diagram of pressure-bearing structure by MIAO Xinting, LIU Guoxu, ZHANG Jinbo, PENG Jian, BIE Fengfeng

“…The crack tip constraint and failure assessment diagram （FAD） in both plate specimen and pipe structure were studied to find out the compatibility and correlation of between the sample and piple.Based on the finite element method, constraints at crack tip of central cracked plate （CCP） specimen and cracked pressure pipe were obtained.It was found that crack tip constraint of CCP specimen under uniaxial loading is better matched with thick-walled pipeline under axial tensile loading, while CCP specimen under biaxial loading is better matched with thin-walled pipeline under internal pressure.In addition, the failure assessment diagram of CCP specimen and pipeline were obtained.It was found that FAD of CCP specimen is less related with thickness, when the thickness of pipe is within the range of thick wall or thin wall; was also pointed out that stress parallel to the crack direction increases the failure assessment curve （FAC） of the structure. …”

Evaluation of Surface Water Quality Based on Combined Weight-TOPSIS Mathematical Model by LIAN Haidong, MU Duo, ZHANG Shuo, XU Cundong

“…In order to evaluate the water worse than class V,and make a more objective and comprehensive evaluation,based on the water quality monitoring results of 8 sections in old Tongli Town,this paper divides the surface water quality standards into six classes,determines the combined weight by the combination of subjective weighting (AHP) and objective weighting (entropy weight),evaluates the water quality of old Tongli Town by the TOPSIS mathematical model improved with combined weight,and compares the results with those of other methods.The evaluation results show that:The water quality of old Tongli Town is class V or V^-,and the water quality of internal section is worse than that of external section.The main impact factors for water quality are the DO and NH₃-N.The combined weighting method overcomes the shortcoming of subjective weighting method or objective weighting method alone,with more scientific weighting process.The results of combined weight-TOPSIS model is basically consistent with those of the improved fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method,which can make the evaluation results more differentiated,so it is worthy of popularization and application in the evaluation of similar water quality.…”
