On internal stress and activation volume in polymers

The two-site model is developed for the analysis of stress relaxation data. It is shown that the product of d In (– )/d and (- _i) is constant where is the applied stress, _i is the (deformation-induced) internal stress and = d/dt. The quantity d In ( )/d is often presented in the literature as the (experimental) activation volume, and there are many examples in which the above relationship with (- _i) holds true. This is in apparent contradiction to the arguments that lead to the association of the quantity d In (– )/d with the activation volume, since these normally start with the premise that the activation volume is independent of stress. In the modified theory presented here the source of this anomaly is apparent. Similar anomalies arise in the estimation of activation volume from creep or constant strain rate tests and these are also examined from the standpoint of the site model theory. In the derivation presented here full account is taken of the site population distribution and this is the major difference compared to most other analyses. The predicted behaviour is identical to that obtained with the standard linear solid. Consideration is also given to the orientation-dependence of stress-aided activation.     

The age hardening effect in Ti-6 Al-4 V due to ω and α precipitation in the β grains

The structure at room temperature of a quenched TA6V titanium alloy has been investigated. This structure is + or + according to the treatment temperature; it is always metastable. During ageing the grains decomposed by the reaction + + +; this decomposition was accompanied by a large increase of the 0.2% yield stress. No structural modification was observed in. The and phase of TA6V were separately investigated in the form of single-phase alloys. The hardness of was insensitive to ageing, while was considerably hardened by and; we deduced that the strengthening of the minor phase during ageing is mainly responsible for the hardening of TA6V.

Higher approximations for supersonic flow past slowly oscillating bodies of revolution

Summary Supersonic flow past slowly oscillating pointed bodies of revolution is studied. Starting from the complete nonlinear potential equation an elementary linearized solution is discussed and it is shown how this solution together with the method of matched asymptotic expansions can be used to derive an elementary second-order slender body theory. This approach is further demonstrated for the oscillating cone and its range of validity is evaluated by comparison with other theoretical methods.

Shear viscosity of the B phase of superfluid3He

The shear viscosity (T) in the Balian-Werthamer (BW) state of superfluid ³ He is calculated variationally throughout the region 0t 1(t=T/T _c) from the transport equation for Bogoliubov quasiparticles. Coherence factors are treated exactly in the calculation of the collision integral. The numerical result for =_s= _s(T)/_n(T_c) agree very well with experiment in the range 0.8t1.0. Analytic expressions = 0.577 (1–1.0008t) and =1–(23/64) [=(T)/k _B T] are obtained in the low-temperature region and in the vicinity ofT _c, respectively. From the numerical analysis it is shown that the latter equation is valid only in the temperature range 0.9997t1.0.Supported by the Research Institute for Fundamental Physics, Kyoto University.     

Deformation approach to the evaluation of the period of initiation and growth of fatigue macrocracks

We performed experimental investigation of the opening displacements of the contours of stress concentrators (notches and cracks) for various amplitudes of cyclic loading. On the basis of experimental results, we propose a new deformation parameter _t which is a function of the notch (crack) tip opening displacement , namely, _t /(+d*), where is the radius of the tip of the notch andd* is the characteristic size of the prefracture zone. It is shown that this parameter uniquely determines the number of cyclesN _l to the initiation of a fatigue macrocrack independently of the geometry of the specimens and stress concentrators in elastic and elastoplastic materials, i.e., the dependence of _t onN ₁ is a characteristic of the material. It is experimentally demonstrated that this dependence enables one to quantitatively describe the process of fatigue fracture both in the stage of initiation of macrocracks and their propagation.Karpenko Physicomechanical Institute, Ukrainian Academy of Sciences, L'viv.

Coupling of order parameter collective modes to spin density in3He-B

We derive a general expression for the dynamic spin susceptibility of³He-B which is valid for all magnetic fields. The coupling of real and imaginary modes by particle-hole asymmetry is taken into account. Then we calculate the contribution of the mode at frequency =2 – 1/4 ( is the effective Larmor frequency) to the transverse susceptibility. The spectral weight of this mode in magnetic resonance absorption is proportional to (/)^1/2 (–)², where and are particle-hole asymmetry parameters. From the experimental coupling strength of the real squashing mode to sound we estimate (–)²10^–4. The dynamic susceptibility satisfies the sum rules of Leggett. Finally we point out the difficulties in calculating the transverse NMR frequency of³He-B. These difficulties arise from theS _z =0 Cooper pairs and from the coupling ofJ _z =±1 modes forJ=1 andJ=2.

Natural damped frequencies and axial response of a rotating finite viscous liquid column

Summary For a finite solidly rotating cylindrical liquid column the damped natural axisymmetric frequencies have been determined. The liquid was considered incompressible and viscous. The cases of freely slipping edges and that of anchored edges have been treated. It was found that instability appears in a purely aperiodic root for the spinning liquid bridge. This is in contrast to the instability appearing in the damped oscillatory natural frequency of a nonspinning liquid column at . The spinning viscous liquid column exhibits the same instability as the frictionless liquid. It appears at for axisymmetric oscillations.List of symbols a radius of liquid column - I _m modified Bessel function of first kind and orderm - s complex frequency ( ) - r, ,z polar cylindrical coordinates - p pressure - t time - u, v, w radial-, azimuthal- and axial velocities of liquid, respectively - Weber number - h height of liquid column - dynamic viscosity of liquid - v kinematic viscosity of liquid (v=/) - density of liquid - surface tension of liquid - _r , _rz shear stress - (r, z, t) circulation - (r, z, t) streamfunction - ₀ angular velocity of liquid column about the axis of symmetry - (,t) free surface displacement

Activated slip systems during yielding of α-β brass two-phase bicrystals

- brass two-phase bicrystals, consisting of fcc () single crystals and bee () single crystals, which were made by the solid state diffusion couple technique, were tensile-tested at room temperature in order to clarify the role of phase-interface on the deformation. The two-phase bicrystals had small concentration gradients in the- and-phases and satisfied the Kurjumov-Sach's orientation relationships i.e. {1 1 1} {1 1 0} and [1 1 0] [1 1 1] at the interface. The slip traces observed in bicrystals deformed to about 3% plastic strain showed a striking contrast between the- and-phases; the slip traces in the-phase were clear and straight, while those in the-phase were fine and wavy. The slip systems in the bicrystals were attributed to those observed in and single crystals, and were explained by a plastic strain incompatibility mechanism. The slip systems, originating at the interface or propagating from another phase, were observed on matching planes.On leave from Mechanical Engineering Department, Faculty of Engineering, Al-Azhar University, Cairo, Egypt.

Summary The differential equation f + ff + f² = 0 (where dashes denote differentiation with respect to the independent variable ) subject to the boundary conditions f(0)=0, f()=0 and either f(0)=1 or f(0)=–1 is considered. It is shown that by using pf as dependent variable and =C–f (where C=f()) as independent variable and then expanding in powers of , a very good approximation to the solution can be obtained using only a few terms in the expansion.
