The investigation of the metal damage at the creep by the method of electrical resistance measuring

In this paper the method of damage measurement of metal structure at the creep is proposed. In contrast to other methods, it allows the measurement of this damage to be carried out in the process of creep test without unloading and cooling of specimens. Experimental damage curves during creep are obtained as a result of test data processing by the suggested method. The analysis of these curves leads to a conclusion that the material damage at repture is monotonically decreasing function of the applied stress. This conclusion is an experimental verification of the theoretical result, obtained earlier. Visiting scholar (1988–1989) at South China University of Technology     

A non-linear viscoelastic model for ceramics at high temperatures

High-temperature mechanical behavior of ceramics is characterized by non-linear rate dependent responses, asymmetric behavior in tension and compression, and nucleation and coalescence of voids leading to rupture. Moreover, rupture experiments show considerable scatter or randomness in fatigue lives of nominally equal specimens. To capture the non-linear, asymmetric time-dependent behavior, a new non-linear viscoelastic model is proposed. Non-linearity and asymmetry are introduced in the volumetric component. To model the random formation and coalescence of voids, each element is assigned a failure strain sampled from a lognormal distribution. An element is deleted when its volumetric strain exceeds its failure strain. Temporal increases in strains produce a sequential loss of elements (a model for void nucleation and growth), which in turn leads to failure. Non-linear viscoelastic model parameters are determined from uniaxial tensile and compressive creep experiments on silicon nitride. The model is then used to predict the deformation of four-point bending and ball-on-ring specimens. Simulation is used to predict statistical moments of rupture lives. Numerical simulation results compare well with results of four-point bending experiments.     

Studies of Phase Behavior on R12TAB/Benzyl Alcohol/Water Ternary System

Phase behavior of ternary systems containing 3‐dodecyloxy‐2‐hydroxypropyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (R₁₂TAB), benzyl alcohol and water have been studied at 25±0.1°C. Ternary phase diagram of the systems shows a clear, isotropic, and low‐viscous region, a L phase, two liquid crystalline phases (lamella and hexagonal liquid crystal), and a coexisted phase of the liquid crystalline and micelles. ²H nuclear magnetic resonance (²H NMR) technology and polarizing‐light microscope were employed to confirm the symmetry structure of the liquid crystals and the boundaries for the different phases. In L phase, three types of different micelle regions (reverse micelles, normal micelles, and bicontinuous structures zones) were confirmed by means of the electric conductivity and the proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (¹H NMR) measurements. The microcosmic structures of the micelle were investigated, and the solubilizing position of benzyl alcohol were located according to the chemical shift of protons.     

Development of plasticity and damage in vibrating structural elements performing guided rigid-body motions

Summary  A numerical algorithm for studying the development of plastic and damaged zones in a vibrating structural element with a large, guided rigid-body motion is presented. Beam-type elements vibrating in the small-strain regime are considered. A machine element performing rotatory motions, similar to an element of a slider-crank mechanism, is treated as a benchmark problem. Microstructural changes in the deforming material are described by the mesolevel variables of plastic strain and damage, which are consistently included into a macroscopic analysis of the overall beam motion. The method is based on an eigenstrain formulation, considering plastic strain and damage to contribute to an eigenstrain loading of a linear elastic background structure. Rigid-body coordinates are incorporated into this beam-type structural formulation, and an implicit numerical scheme is presented for iterative computation of the eigenstrains from the mesolevel constitutive behavior. Owing to the eigenstrain formulation, any of the existing constitutive models with internal variables could in principle be implemented. Linear elastic/perfectly plastic behavior is exemplarily treated in a numerical study, where plastic strain is connected to the Kachanov damage parameter by a simple damage law. Inelastic effects like plastic shakedown and damage-induced low-cycle rupture are shown to occur in the examplary problems. Received 1 September 1999; accepted for publication 9 March 2000

Measuring uniaxial extensional viscosity using a modified rotational rheometer

Knowledge of the extensional behaviour of polymer melts is extremely important due to the industrial relevance of extensional flows in common processing techniques and sequences such as blow moulding, film blowing, fibre spinning, melt flow through extrusion dies and injection mould filling. One of the main problems both researchers and industrialists come across is the fact that, unlike shear flows, steady-state extensional flows are not easy to generate and maintain experimentally. This fact limits the extent to which one can characterise the materials and, therefore, the degree of optimisation of the productive process. In this paper, a modification to a commercially available controlled rate rotational rheometer is proposed in order to produce a cheap, easy to set-up, flexible extensional rheometer. This is based on the well-known Meissner-type extensional rheometer and makes use of the accurate velocity control and torque measurement possibilities of the rotational apparatus. In this case, the adaptation was performed on a TA Instruments Weissenberg Rheogoniometer, but the idea is applicable to most other similar devices. The feasibility of the modification will be discussed and confirmed, results being presented for two materials at different temperatures. These include the calculation of transient uniaxial extensional viscosity and a study of rupture conditions.

THE MOLECULAR MECHANISM OF PHOTOPORPHYRIN (YHPD)''''S PHOTOSENSITIZATION——LASER RAMAN SPECTROSCOPIC STUDY OF MICROCOSMIC AND PHOTOSENSITIVE DAMAGE OF YHPD TO PROTEIN

Laser Raman spectroscopy was used to investigate the microcosmic and photosensitive damage of YHPD to lysozyme, of which the three-dimensional structure has been elucidated. The experimental results shown by various damages of the main-chain and side-chain of lysozyme are as follows: (ⅰ) Phe and Cys are also damaged by photosensitization of YHPD, except for Trp, Tyr, Met, 1/2Cys and His; (ⅱ) the order of the photosensitized sensitivity of various groups of these amino acids have been described; (ⅲ) Trp and Tyr buried in the three-dimensional structure of the protein are damaged very greatly, and (ⅳ) the main-chain conformation of the protein has changed considerably, such as a decrease in orderly structure (α-helix, β-sheet and β-turn) and a simultaneous increase in random coil.     

Fast and accurate determination of the relative binding affinities of small compounds to HIV‐1 protease using non‐equilibrium work

The fast pulling ligand (FPL) out of binding cavity using non‐equilibrium molecular dynamics (MD) simulations was demonstrated to be a rapid, accurate and low CPU demand method for the determination of the relative binding affinities of a large number of HIV‐1 protease (PR) inhibitors. In this approach, the ligand is pulled out of the binding cavity of the protein using external harmonic forces, and the work of pulling force corresponds to the relative binding affinity of HIV‐1 PR inhibitor. The correlation coefficient between the pulling work and the experimental binding free energy of shows that FPL results are in good agreement with experiment. It is thus easier to rank the binding affinities of HIV‐1 PR inhibitors, that have similar binding affinities because the mean error bar of pulling work amounts to . The nature of binding is discovered using the FPL approach. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
