Microstructure,mechanical properties and bio-corrosion properties of Mg-HA bionanocomposites fabricated by a novel severe plastic deformation process

This research investigates the alterations in microstructure, mechanical properties, and corrosion behavior of binary magnesium-hydroxyapatite bionanocomposites with 2, 5, and 10 wt%HA. By mixing Mg and HA powders with different percentages of HA contents, a combined method of cyclic extrusion compression (CEC), equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) and conventional extrusion were employed to consolidate the mixture of powders. All composites were examined. The results indicate that the addition of hydroxyapatite to magnesium improves the mechanical properties, but these properties are deteriorated with the hydroxyapatite content of over 5 wt%. The corrosion behavior of the composites was examined by immersion test, mass loss and polarization tests in Hank’s solution. The results indicate that Mg-5HA exhibits the best corrosion resistance and the corrosion rate increases when the HA content rises to more than 5 wt%. In addition, the specimen produced through the proposed method in this work indicates better corrosion resistance in comparison with cast and extruded pure Mg.     

Size-dependent separation of graphene oxide by deformation of packed-gel in a chromatographic column

ABSTRACT

A deformable gel-packed chromatographic column was used to separate as-synthesized graphite oxide with different sizes. The synthesized gel (56 µm) was deformed by pressure of the fluid flow and the gaps in the gels showed a range of sizes. A suspension of graphene oxide (0.1 g/L, 10 mL) was injected, and graphene oxide in the elution had a size at 0.56 μm and 0.14 μm, whereas in half upper and bottom domain of the gel layer graphene oxide had a size at 33 µm and 2.9 µm, respectively, demonstrating that graphene oxide suspension was separated by size through gel layer.

针对煤矿井下高瓦斯软煤顺层长钻孔排渣困难、成孔率低、施工困难等问题,通过数值模拟实验研究了井下深部软煤体变形破坏特征,分析了顺层长钻孔孔周松软煤体变形特征及应力变化,以揭示顺层长钻孔孔周松软煤体变形产渣规律。研究表明:深部高瓦斯软煤顺层钻孔孔周煤体的应力平衡临界条件破坏后将发生大体积突然垮落;钻孔水平最大变形位移为1.22mm,垂直方向最大变形位移为10.7mm;径向孔周煤体垂向变形呈现逐渐减小趋势,且垂向变形明显大于钻孔水平变形。在水平方向上,钻孔孔周煤体应力分布呈现先增大再逐渐减小的变化规律,径向距离对水平应力分布的影响逐渐减小;随着径向距离的增加,钻孔孔周煤体应力分布逐渐降低,钻孔孔壁处煤体的应力出现最大值,且垂直方向处应力值最大。

Developing an element free method for higher order shear deformation analysis of plates

A procedure is presented to eliminate transverse shear locking in analysis of laminated composite plates using Element Free Galerkin (EFG) method based on higher-order transverse shear deformation theory (HSDT). In the procedure, derivatives of the transverse displacement are introduced as independent variables. Thus, a formulation requiring C⁰ continuity shape functions for approximation is proposed for higher-order transverse shear deformation analysis of plates. Shear locking is avoided considering reduced integration for shear stiffness matrix; a method which is implemented in FEM. Moving Least Squares (MLS) method is utilized for shape functions and the penalty method is implemented to impose approximate boundary conditions. The present solutions are verified with other higher-order shear deformable studies. Moreover, a comparison between the present solutions with those obtained by EFG procedure based on First-order transverse Shear Deformation Theory (FSDT) is performed.     

Structural fatigue crack growth on a representative volume element under cyclic strain behavior

By introducing parameters λ and ω into the crack tip field, a unified cyclic stress and strain field was first formulated by using the Hutchinson-Rice-Rosengren (HRR) field and the Rice-Kujawski-Ellyin (RKE) field under plane stress states in the present study. On the basis of the plastic strain energy and the linear damage accumulation, two fatigue crack growth models without any artificial parameters were then proposed from a representative volume element of cyclic strain behavior. The fatigue crack growth model included parameters λ and ω which showed the effect of two singularity fields. In addition, a simplified structural fatigue crack growth model was eventually established in terms of the fatigue life of each point on the crack front and the non-self-similar shape evolution law. Finally, the predictions of models are compared with the experimental data and the agreement is found to be fairly good.     

Origin of stress overshoot in amorphous solids

Based on the shear-transformation-zone (STZ) theory, we propose a constitutive model for describing homogeneous elastoplastic deformation of amorphous solids where the interaction of shear transformations and free volume dynamics is incorporated. This theoretical model can reproduce the stress overshoot behavior that shows the dependence of strain rate, temperature, STZ population and dilatancy of systems. It reveals that the stress overshoots its steady state value due to the delayed activation of shear transformations that results from the insufficient free volume in the system. However, the subsequent strain softening (stress drop) is attributed to the shear-induced dilatation that is a result of the positive interplay between shear transformations and free volume creation, the latter playing the dominant role. Our analysis also demonstrates that the STZs, as basic carriers of amorphous plasticity, govern the yielding of the system, whereas the free volume dynamics significantly affects the post-yielding behaviors.     

Molecular Dynamics Study of Radial Corrugation in Carbon Nanotubes

Molecular dynamics simulations of multiwalled carbon nanotubes under hydrostatic pressure are performed to elucidate the novel class of radial buckling in the systems. It is revealed by all-atom simulations that the initial circular cross section transforms into a flower-like wavy configuration at critical pressure on the order of hundreds mega pascals or less. This kind of radial buckling, called radial corrugation, originates from the competition of the three relevant energies in the system: in-plane strain energy, van der Waals interaction energy between adjacent tubes, and out-of-plane bending energy. Their possible consequences for physical properties of carbon nanotubes are also discussed.
