Wave Propagation along Axes of Symmetry in Linearly Elastic Media with Initial Stress

The proofs of the Fedorov–Stippes and Fedorov's theorems, which hold for linearly elastic homogeneous bodies in natural configurations, remain valid for any linearly elastic medium with initial stress provided that Hooke's tensor be replaced by a suitable elasticity tensor.     

Constitutive modeling of the mechanics associated with crystallizable shape memory polymers

Shape memory polymers are novel materials that can be easily formed into complex shapes, retaining memory of their original shape even after undergoing large deformations. The temporary shape is stable and return to the original shape is triggered by a suitable mechanism such as heating. In this paper, we develop constitutive equations to model the mechanical behavior of crystallizable shape memory polymers. Crystallizable shape memory polymers are called crystallizable because the temporary shape is fixed by a crystalline phase, while return to the original shape is due to the melting of this crystalline phase. The modeling is done using a framework that was developed recently for studying crystallization in polymers ([28], [25], [27], [31]) and is based on the theory of multiple natural configurations. In this paper we formulate constitutive equations for the original amorphous phase and the semi-crystalline phase that is formed after the onset of crystallization. In addition we model the melting of the crystalline phase to capture the return of the polymer to its original shape. The model has been used to simulate a typical uni-axial cycle of deformation, the results of this simulation compare very well with experimental data. In addition to this we also simulate circular shear of a hollow cylinder and present results for different cases in this geometry. Received: January 5, 2005     

On use of ghost-less beam splitter in reversal shear interferometer for measurement of spatial coherence of large cross-section laser beam

A configuration of reversal shear interferometer suitable for measurement of spatial coherence of high average power, large cross-section laser beam has been discussed. Ghost-less beam splitters in which unwanted multiple reflections from the surfaces have been suppressed by total internal reflection are used for beam splitting and re-combination. Advantages and drawbacks of this configuration have been discussed.     

The surface shear viscosity of a planar liquid-vapor interface I. Theory

In this paper we develop a theory for the calculation of the surface shear viscosity of a planar liquid-vapor interface. The theory is an extension of the generalized hydrodynamics formalism, originally developed for the calculation of linear transport coefficients in isotropic bulk fluids. We develop an expression for the surface shear viscosity in terms of the actual shear viscosity profile in the interfacial region. We derive an expression for this profile in terms of the first four moments of the autocorrelation function of the transverse parallel velocity (the component of velocity parallel to k, which is the projection of k on to the interface). Finally, we calculate these moments for a planar liquid-vapor interface.

Structural approach to enhance the fracture resistance of high-strength metallic materials

The paper proposes an approach to form (by special heat treatment) a structure and phase composition of martensitic steel that would enhance its ductility in the high-strength state. A correlation is experimentally established between the stability of fracture resistance and ductility in linear and plane stress states. The behavior of the scatterband of the ultimate strength with increase in the degree of ductility is analyzed. The possibility of predicting the ultimate strength from the lower edge of its scatterband is demonstrated with an example of a circular cylindrical shell __________ Translated from Prikladnaya Mekhanika, Vol. 42, No. 8, pp. 68–78, August 2006.

Residual stress determination in aluminium using electromagnetic acoustic transducers

The residual stresses in a shrink-fit specimen were measured ultrasonically, using shear-horizonal (SH) waves transmitted and received by noncontacting electromagnetic acoustic transducers. The presence of stress induces a small change in the velocity of the SH-waves. The difference in velocities of orthogonally polarized SH-waves (acoustic birefringence) was measured with a simple time-interval averaging system; this velocity difference can be related to the difference of principal stresses. The presence of material anisotropy (texture) in the specimen also causes relative velocity changes comparable to stress-induced changes. A simple method was used to remove the anisotropy-dependent component of the total relative velocity change, thereby allowing a determination of residual stress. This method consisted of measuring the birefringence in unstressed reference specimens and subtracting it from the birefringence measured at stressed locations. For the specimen used here, good agreement between theoretical and experimental values of stress was obtained.
