Electro-Thermal Effects and Deformation Response of Carbon Fiber

A carbon fiber mat is a sheet composed of intercrossing short carbon fibers, which has more stable and lower electrical resistivity compared with dispersed short carbon fiber mixed in cement. Thereby carbon fiber mat cement could exhibit obvious electro-thermal effect. When electrified, the temperature of composite structures made up of cement mortar and carbon fiber mat will rise rapidly. If the temperature field is not uniform, temperature difference will cause structures to deform, which can be used to adjust the deformation of structures. The temperature field and deformation response driven by the electro-thermal effects of a type of carbon fiber mat cement beams are studied. Firstly, the temperature and deformation responses are studied using theories of thermal conduction and elasticity. Secondly, experimental results are given to verify the theoretical solution. These two parts lay the foundation for temperature and deformation adjustment.     

Multi-Scale Experiments and Interfacial Mechanical Modeling of Carbon Nanotube Fiber

The multi-scale deformation and interfacial mechanical behavior of carbon nanotube fibers with multi-level structures are investigated by experimental and theoretical methods. Multi-scale experiments including uniaxial tensile testing, in situ Raman spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy are conducted to measure the mechanical response of multi-level structures within the fiber under tension. A two-level interfacial mechanical model is then presented to analyze the interfacial bonding strength of mesoscopic bundles and microscopic nanotubes. The evolution characteristics of multi-scale deformation of the fiber are described based on experimental characterization and interfacial strength analysis. The strengthening mechanism of the fiber is further studied. Comprehensive analysis shows that the property of multi-level interfaces is a critical factor for the fiber strength and toughness. Finally, the method of improving the mechanical properties of fiber-based materials is discussed. The result can be used to guide multi-level interface engineering of carbon nanotube fibers and fiber-based composites to produce high performance materials.     

综合管廊早龄期混凝土温度应力仿真模拟

以汉中市综合管廊为工程背景,通过有限元软件,首先模拟分析综合管廊早龄期温度场,随后将温度场结果附加到管廊结构中求解温度应力,从而分析综合管廊早龄期混凝土温度应力与浇筑长度的关系。模拟分析发现:综合管廊在混凝土浇筑早期,温度场沿长度方向变化不显著,且随着浇筑长度的增加,温度场不变;在墙体温度上升阶段,墙体内部沿长度方向的应力主要为压应力,当墙体混凝土内部温度达到最高,混凝土开始降温,结构内变形由膨胀逐渐变为收缩,内力由压应力逐渐变为拉应力,随着时间的变化,墙体内外温差趋于稳定,墙体温度应力也逐渐平稳,此时温度应力主要受外界环境变化影响;当综合管廊浇筑长度在60m范围内,浇筑长度越大,温度应力越大,但当浇筑长度超过60m,温度应力不再增加。     

A study on the compression sensibility and mechanical model of carbon fiber reinforced cement smart material

Under low compressive stress, carbon fiber reinforced cement (CFRC) exhibits the compressive sensibility for its inner deformation. The curve measured in the course of specimen suddenly loaded by a constant load and unloaded suddenly exhibits the variation of resistivity with time, and the curves measured under cyclic loads exhibits the variation of resistivity with cyclic stresses. Based on the results of experiment, the tunnel conduction effect and the structure of hardened cement paste, a mechanical model for CFRC is proposed and the rules of deformation when the specimen is loaded constantly or cyclically are also inferred. These rules can well explain the mechanism of CFRC' s compressive sensibility.Financed by National Natural Science Foundation of China Key Project No. 59432061.     

Elastic–plastic behavior of non-woven fibrous mats

Electrospinning is a novel method for creating non-woven polymer mats that have high surface area and high porosity. These attributes make them ideal candidates for multifunctional composites. Understanding the mechanical properties as a function of fiber properties and mat microstructure can aid in designing these composites. Further, a constitutive model which captures the membrane stress–strain behavior as a function of fiber properties and the geometry of the fibrous network would be a powerful design tool. Here, mats electrospun from amorphous polyamide are used as a model system. The elastic–plastic behavior of single fibers are obtained in tensile tests. Uniaxial monotonic and cyclic tensile tests are conducted on non-woven mats. The mat exhibits elastic–plastic stress–strain behavior. The transverse strain behavior provides important complementary data, showing a negligible initial Poisson's ratio followed by a transverse:axial strain ratio greater than ?1:1 after an axial strain of 0.02. A triangulated framework has been developed to emulate the fibrous network structure of the mat. The micromechanically based model incorporates the elastic–plastic behavior of single fibers into a macroscopic membrane model of the mat. This representative volume element based model is shown to capture the uniaxial elastic–plastic response of the mat under monotonic and cyclic loading. The initial modulus and yield stress of the mat are governed by the fiber properties, the network geometry, and the network density. The transverse strain behavior is linked to discrete deformation mechanisms of the fibrous mat structure including fiber alignment, fiber bending, and network consolidation. The model is further validated in comparison to experiments under different constrained axial loading conditions and found to capture the constraint effect on stiffness, yield, post-yield hardening, and post-yield transverse strain behavior. Due to the direct connection between microstructure and macroscopic behavior, this model should be extendable to other electrospun systems and other two dimensional random fibrous networks.

空心纤维常用于热电复合材料的结构设计。纤维附近产生的不均匀温度场会引起局部热应力集中,威胁材料的可靠性并可能导致结构失效。本文采用圆环夹杂模型,研究了含空心纤维热电复合材料在均匀远场电流和能流作用下的力学响应。基于非线性全耦合的热电本构方程,利用复变函数中的级数法得到了纤维和基体中热电场和应力场的解析解。通过数值算例,分析了空心纤维的传导能力和几何尺寸对温度场、应力场和局部热电转换效率的影响。结果表明：随着空心纤维内径和界面热阻的增大,界面周围的应力场增大,但并不改变应力场的分布趋势。此外,我们发现：温度分布和应力场对几何参数比对界面热阻更为敏感。     

Submicron deformation field measurements: Part 3. Demonstration of deformation determinations

This is the third and last paper is a sequence devoted to an experimental investigation of deformation mechanisms at the submicron scale through the use of a specially designed scanning tunneling microscope. Its application, when used jointly with digital image correlation, as a tool for strain and deformation determinations is explored by way of two demonstrations. First, deformations in a uniaxially stressed, unplasticized (poly)vinylchloride sample are analyzed to yield the three-dimensional surface displacement field over a 10 m×10m area. Homogeneous deformations occur at the micrometer and large size scales. However, at the 100-nm scale, inhomogeneous deformations embedded in a homogeneous deformation field appear. The second example addresses the deformation field in the vicinity of an interface between a carbon fiber and the surrounding matrix under shear stresses along the fiber. This loading leads to shearing a sheath from the carbon fiber that is about half a micron thick.     

Thermal effect on the deformation of a flexible beam with large kinematical driven overall motions

The research investigates the transient longitudinal and transverse deformation of a planar flexible beam with large overall motions in a temperature field. With the increase of temperature, longitudinal deformation is caused by the thermal expansion in axial direction. Due to the coupling of longitudinal and transverse deformation, the transverse deformation is induced, which is significant in cases where temperature increases rapidly in a very short period. Furthermore, the transverse temperature gradient, which is caused by the temperature variation in the transverse direction, may lead to transverse deformation. Considering the thermal strain, equations of motion of a flexible beam with arbitrary large overall motion are derived based on virtual work principle. The high order terms of the strain tensor are taken into account, such that the geometric nonlinear deformation terms are included in the dynamic equations. Simulation results of a rotating beam are shown to reveal the thermal effect and nonlinear effect on the dynamic performance of the beam.

A homogenization theory for time-dependentnonlinear composites with periodic internal structures

A homogenization theory for time-dependent deformation such as creep andviscoplasticity of nonlinear composites with periodic internal structures is developed. To beginwith, in the macroscopically uniform case, a rate-type macroscopic constitutive relation betweenstress and strain and an evolution equation of microscopic stress are derived by introducing twokinds of Y-periodic functions, which are determined by solving two unit cell problems.Then, the macroscopically nonuniform case is discussed in an incremental form using thetwo-scale asymptotic expansion of field variables. The resulting equations are shown to beeffective for computing incrementally the time-dependent deformation for which the history ofeither macroscopic stress or macroscopic strain is prescribed. As an application of the theory,transverse creep of metal matrix composites reinforced undirectionally with continuous fibers isanalyzed numerically to discuss the effect of fiber arrays on the anisotropy in such creep.
