Controlled fabrication of hierarchically microstructured surfaces via surface wrinkling combined with template replication

In this paper,we present a simple method by combining surface wrinkling and template replication to create a series of hierarchical structures on polydimethylsiloxane(PDMS) elastomer.The primary stable lined patterns are formed by duplicating commercialized compact disk and digital versatile disk with PDMS.The secondary microscale patterns are from surface wrinkling,which is elicited by oxygen plasma(OP) treatment of the prestrained PDMS stamp followed with the prestrain release.By systematically varying the OP exposure duration,the prestrain,and the angle(θ) between the primary pattern orientation and the prestrain direction,we obtain highly ordered well-organized composite patterns from different patterning techniques and with different length scales and mechanical stabilities.     

Assessing Fabrics Wrinkling by Image Analysis

In this paper, the features of fabric wrinkle structure are analyzed, by image processing technique. The wrinkle images are processed and character parameters are extracted. The wrinkle side surface area ratio of image gray level intensity, the standard deviation of total pixels' gray level intensity and the standard deviation of wrinkle block area are adopted to evaluate fabric wrinkling. The results show that these three character parameters can be served for ranking the wrinkling. It provides a feasible objective method for fabrics wrinkling degree assessing.

Large eddy simulation of turbulent premixed flames using level-set G-equation

Level-set G-equation and stationary flamelet chemistry are used in large eddy simulation of a propane/air premixed turbulent flame stabilized by a bluff body. The aim was to study the interaction between the flame front and turbulent eddies, and in particular to examine the effect of sub-grid scale (SGS) eddies on the wrinkling of the flame surface. The results indicated that the two types of turbulence eddies—the resolved large scale eddies and the unresolved SGS eddies—have different effects on the flame. The fluctuation of the flame surface, which is responsible for the broadening of the time averaged mean flame brush by turbulence, depends on the large resolved turbulence eddies. Time averaged mean flow velocity, temperature, and major species concentrations mainly depend on the large scale resolved eddies. The unresolved SGS eddies contribute to the wrinkling at the SGS level and play an important role in the enhancement of the propagation speed of the resolved flame front. In addition, the spatially filtered intermediate species, such as radicals, and the spatially filtered reaction rates strongly depend on the small SGS eddies. The asymptotic behavior of flame wrinkling by the SGS eddies, with respect to the decrease in filter size and grid size, is investigated further using a simplified level-set equation in a model shear flow. It is shown that to minimize the influence of the SGS eddies, fine grid and filter size may have to be used.

Adhesion of nonplanar wrinkled surfaces

Topological patterns on polymer surfaces can significantly alter and control adhesion. In this study, the effect of surface wrinkles on a spherical surface on adhesion has been studied. Surface wrinkling induced by swelling of a crosslinked polydimethylsiloxane elastomer constrained by a stiff, thin surface layer (silicate) is used to produce topographic features of various length scales over a large curved area. By controlling the properties of the stiff layer and the applied strain conditions, surface wrinkles of varying amplitude and wavelength are obtained. The effect of wrinkle morphology on adhesion is quantified, and the results display a transition from enhancement of adhesion to decrease depending upon wrinkle dimensions. A simple phenomenological model is proposed that describes the change of adhesion behavior as a function of wrinkle morphology. Our results provide a critical understanding toward tuning the adhesion behavior of nonplanar surfaces consisting of periodic topographic structures. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Mechanical behavior and wrinkling patterns of phase-separated binary polymer blend film

The wrinkling of phase-separated binary polymer blend film was studied through combining the Monte Carlo (MC) simulation for morphologies with the lattice spring model (LSM) for mechanical properties. The information of morphology and structure obtained by use of MC simulation is input to the LSM composed of a three-dimensional network of springs, which allows us to determine the wrinkling and the mechanical properties of polymer blend film, such as strain, stress, and Young’s modulus. The simulated results show that the wrinkling of phase-separated binary polymer blend film is related not only to the structure of morphology, but also to the disparity in elastic moduli between polymers of blend. Our simulation results provide fundamental insight into the relationship between morphology, wrinkling, and mechanical properties for phase-separated polymer blend films and can yield guidelines for formulating blends with the desired mechanical behavior. The wrinkling results also reveal that the stretching of the phase-separated film can form the micro-template, which has a wide application prospect.     

空间薄膜阵面结构褶皱的实验研究

阵面薄膜上的褶皱会显著影响航天器性能,褶皱控制也是薄膜航天器研发的难点。本文采用白光扫描技术,测试了一个正方形薄膜阵面结构在纯剪切作用下的褶皱特性。测试结果显示,随着剪切力的增大,结构膜面褶皱数增加,褶皱幅度增大,膜面平整度降低。随着膜面预应力的增大,膜面上的褶皱数略有增大,褶皱幅度有所减小,膜面平整度有所提高。测试结果还显示,膜面上粘结缝的存在、以及粘结缝与剪切力间的方位关系对膜面褶皱有复杂的影响。论文所得结论对薄膜阵面结构设计研发具有参考价值。
