A study of the large strain deformation and failure behaviour of mixed biopolymer gels via in situ ESEM

A mixed biopolymer gel, consisting of a protein (gelatin) and polysaccharide (maltodextrin) mixture has been investigated. By controlling the composition it was possible to construct an ‘emulsion-like’ structure, with included spherical particles of one phase (maltodextrin) within a continuous matrix of the second (gelatin). Large strain deformation and failure behaviour of this system has been examined via in situ environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM). ESEM has been employed to explore the changes in the structure of the material, whilst allowing the sample to stay hydrated as it was subjected to tensile strain, thereby allowing simultaneous imaging and determination of stress-strain data of the native sample. Ductile behaviour was observed, which has been attributed to the stretching, tearing and fracture of gelatin ligaments and debonding at the interface between the maltodextrin particles and continuous gelatin matrix. Deformation and fracture of the maltodextrin particles during tensile testing was also observed. The interfacial fracture energy of the composite has been calculated following an elastomer composite-debonding model, although there are several limitations to this approach for the mixed gel. It was found in samples tested after different ageing times that the debonding stress and strain was decreasing with ageing leading to a lower interfacial fracture energy. Samples were also tested after successive loading cycles, which resulted in a mechanical strength decrease after each cycle.     

Plastic deformation of bcc metal thin foils without dislocation

Heavy plastic deformation of fcc metal thin foils to fracture has been found recently to proceed without involving dislocations, and it results in the formation of high density of vacancy clusters. Thin foil specimens of bcc metals such as V and Mo were plastically deformed to fracture in in situ elongation experiments under an electron microscope. Morphology of thinning and fracture was found to be similar to fcc metals, and no dislocation was observed during heavy deformation. Electron diffraction analysis at the tip of a crack during deformation confirmed a large elastic deformation of up to 5%. Unlike in fcc metal thin foil specimens, point defect clusters were not observed near fractured tips. This difference is attributed to the difference in vacancy reaction, though the deformation in bcc metals without dislocation most likely does produce vacancies.

本文用大变形刚塑性有限元模拟正方形板料在方冲头拉延下的凸缘变形过程，并以所获得的工件形状与金属流动方向为依据，对初始板料形状进行修正。对修正后的坯料形状进行二次模拟，获得了与给定凸缘形状基本吻合的拉延件形状。文中对不同凸缘圆角对极料优化形状的影响作了计算，讨论了在保证边界轮廓位置不变的条件下网格划分的方法。     

Application of Galerkin Method to Dynamical Behavior of Viscoelastic Timoshenko Beam with Finite Deformation

The motion equations governing the dynamical behavior of a viscoelasticTimoshenko beam with finite deformation are derived and simplified byGalerkin method. The viscoelastic material is assumed to obey thethree-dimensional fractional derivative constitutive relation. Thedynamical behaviors of the simplified systems with order 1 and order 2are numerically computed and compared by using the computational methodpresented by the authors. The dynamical behaviors of the systems areuniform qualitatively, but there is a little deviation quantitatively.And the truncated system with order 1 is safer than the one of order 2.It is also shown that the lower order system is reasonable. Theinfluences of the load parameter and the fractional derivative parameter(material parameter) on the deflection of the beam are consideredrespectively. The numerical methods in nonlinear dynamics, such as phasediagram, and Poincaré section, are applied to reveal dynamical behaviorsof the nonlinear viscoelastic Timoshenko beam. There are plenty ofdynamical behaviors, such as periodicity, bifurcation, quasi-periodicityand chaos in the dynamical system.     

小浪底水库调水调沙运用对大坝变形的影响分析

自2002年以来,小浪底水库汛前利用预泄汛限水位以上水量、腾空防洪库容的有利时机,连续5年进行集中调水调沙,获得了巨大的减淤效益.但在调水调沙期间,由于大流量下泄,水库水位下降较快,大坝变形明显增大,表现为水平位移向上游变化、垂直位移加速沉降变化的特点.监测分析结果表明,调水调沙运用不影响大坝安全稳定运行.
