Elasto-plastic buckling and post-buckling analysis of sandwich plates with functionally graded metal-metal face sheets and interfacial damage简

Based on the elasto-plastic theory, considering the effect of spherical stress tensor on the elasto-plastic deformation and using the slicing treatment to deal with the plasticity of functionally graded coatings, the elasto-plastic increment constitutive equations of the sandwich plates with functionally graded metal-metal face sheets can be derived. Applying the weak bonded theory to the interfacial constitutive relation and taking into account the geometric nonlinearity, the nonlinear increment differential equilibrium equations of the sandwich plates with functionally graded metal-metal face sheets are obtained by the minimum potential energy principle. The finite difference method and the iterative method are used to obtain the post-buckling path. When the effect of geometrical nonlinearity of the plate is ignored, the elasto-plastic critical buckling load of the sandwich plates with functionally graded metal-metal face sheets can be solved by the Galerkin method and the iterative method. In the numerical examples, the effects of the interface damages, the induced load ratio, the functionally graded index, and the geometry parameters on the elasto-plastic post-buckling path and the elasto-plastic critical buckling load are investigated.     

Density functional theory study on the adsorption of alkali metal ions with pristine and defected graphene sheet

The graphene-based materials along with the adsorption of alkali metal ions are suitable for energy conversion and storage applications. Hence in the present work, we have investigated the structural and electronic properties of pristine and defected graphene sheet upon the adsorption of alkali metal ions (Li⁺, Na⁺, and K⁺) using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The presence of vacancies or vacancy defects enhances the adsorption of alkali ions than the pristine sheet. From the obtained results, it is found that the adsorption energy of Li⁺ on the vacancies defected graphene sheet is higher (3.05?eV) than the pristine (2.41?eV) and Stone–Wales (2.50?eV) defected sheets. Moreover, the pore radius of the pristine and defected graphene sheets are less affected by metal ions adsorption. The increase in energy gap upon the adsorption of metal ions is found to be high in the vacancy defected graphene than that of other sheets. The metal ions adsorption in the defective vacancy sheets has high charge transfer from metal ions to the graphene sheet. The bonding characteristic between the metal ions and graphene sheet are analysed using QTAIM analysis. The influence of alkali ions on the electronic properties of the graphene sheet is examined from the Total Density of States (TDOS) and Partial Density of States (PDOS).

扩散吸声结构(Diffsorber)能应用于室内外声品质的改善,具有很好的研究意义和应用前景。微穿孔复合QRD结构能显著提高低频吸声性能,但复合对扩散性能的影响未见报道。本论文对QRD结构及其与厚度为0.6mm,穿孔率为1%,2%,3%的微穿孔板复合结构的扩散性能进行测试,得出了相应的反射声能极坐标图和扩散系数。研究结果表明,微穿孔复合QRD结构在中低频特别在结构自身共振频率范围内具有良好的扩散性能,扩散系数在0.8到0.95之间,随着频率增加,复合结构的扩散性能有下降的趋势,同时由于微穿孔板的吸声性能,复合后结构的空间反射声能普遍降低5dB左右。     

Electrical properties of organic field effect transistors with thin graphite/metal electrode directly grown by ICP-CVD at low temperatures

The high contact resistance of organic thin film transistors (OTFTs), due to the work function difference between metal electrode and organic channel, seriously decreases the electrical properties. Graphene electrode could reduce the contact resistance and improve the electrical performance of OTFTs. However, the high chemical vapor deposition (CVD) temperature (900–1000 °C) limits the available OTFT substrate in the case of direct graphene growth on S/D metal electrodes. Furthermore, the application of a transferred graphene electrode induces significant problems due to the transfer process. In this work, thin graphite sheet was directly grown on a metal electrode by the inductively coupled plasma-chemical vapor deposition (ICP-CVD) method at as low temperature as 400, 500 °C. We show that OFETs with thin graphite sheet/metal, grown at 400, 500 °C, exhibit much lower contact resistance than OFETs with metal-only electrode.     

Heat and mass transfer in stagnation-point flow towards a stretching surface in the presence of buoyancy force and thermal radiation

In this paper an analysis has been made to study heat and mass transfer in two-dimensional stagnation-point flow of an incompressible viscous fluid over a stretching vertical sheet in the presence of buoyancy force and thermal radiation. The similarity solution is used to transform the problem under consideration into a boundary value problem of nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equations containing Prandtl number, Schmidt number and Sherwood number which are solved numerically with appropriate boundary conditions for various values of the dimensionless parameters. Comparison of the present numerical results are found to be in excellent with the earlier published results under limiting cases. The effects of various physical parameters on the boundary layer velocity, temperature and concentration profiles are discussed in detail for both the cases of assisting and opposing flows. The computed values of the skin friction coefficient, local Nusselt number and Sherwood number are discussed for various values of physical parameters. The tabulated results show that the effect of radiation is to increase skin friction coefficient, local Nusselt number and Sherwood number.

CTOD试验焊缝表面开缺口试样裂纹前沿平直度研究

对于裂纹尖端张开位移(CTOD)试验,焊缝试样中预制疲劳裂纹前沿平直度直接影响了试样制备的合格率,是试验的关键难题之一．试验中常对试样进行预处理以提高裂纹前沿平直度,但由此也使试验结果与实际情况产生一定差异．本文深入研究规范BS7448: Part2中对焊缝试样取样方向的规定,对表面开缺口试样裂纹尖端焊接残余应力进行分析,运用大型有限元软件ANSYS模拟90mm厚钢板焊接过程,求解了横向残余应力沿板厚方向及焊缝方向的分布规律,研究出横向残余应力分布是影响焊缝试样预制裂纹前沿平直度的主要原因,并通过试验进行验证．试验结果表明,表面开缺口试样可不经过局部韧带压缩等预处理而得到合格的裂纹前沿平直度,试验不改变原焊缝残余应力,可测得更加接近焊缝实际情况的CTOD韧度值,给CTOD试验中合理选取焊缝试样取样方向提供了新思路．

Self‐Assembly of Tetraphenylalanine Peptides

Three different tetraphenylalanine (FFFF) based peptides that differ at the N‐ and C‐termini have been synthesized by using standard procedures to study their ability to form different nanoassemblies under a variety of conditions. The FFFF peptide assembles into nanotubes that show more structural imperfections at the surface than those formed by the diphenylalanine (FF) peptide under the same conditions. Periodic DFT calculations (M06L functional) were used to propose a model that consists of three FFFF molecules defining a ring through head‐to‐tail NH₃⁺???^?OOC interactions, which in turn stack to produce deformed channels with internal diameters between 12 and 16 Å. Depending on the experimental conditions used for the peptide incubation, N‐fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl (Fmoc) protected FFFF self‐assembles into a variety of polymorphs: ultra‐thin nanoplates, fibrils, and star‐like submicrometric aggregates. DFT calculations indicate that Fmoc‐FFFF prefers a parallel rather than an antiparallel β‐sheet assembly. Finally, coexisting multiple assemblies (up to three) were observed for Fmoc‐FFFF‐OBzl (OBzl = benzyl ester), which incorporates aromatic protecting groups at the two peptide terminals. This unusual and noticeable feature is attributed to the fact that the assemblies obtained by combining the Fmoc and OBzl groups contained in the peptide are isoenergetic.
