Background: Nanowelding is an attractive bottom-up fabrication technique that allows the construction, connection, and repair of nanomaterials. The effects of contact interference, crystal orientation, and material type of nanoscale welded pairs are investigated in terms of atomic trajectories, strain distribution, and the stress-strain curve. Methods: The quasi-continuum (QC) method is applied to simulate nanowelding process. The QC method is a multi-scale combined molecular dynamics approach that mixes atomistic and continuum algorithms. Results: At a small contact interference of 0-1 nm, the ultimate stress of welded pairs is independent of the magnitude of contact interference. Regarding the effect of material type, the average ultimate stress for Ni-Ni welded pairs is the highest and that for Cu-Cu welded pairs is the lowest, regardless of the contact orientation mode. The elongation of Ni-Ni welded pairs increases with increasing contact interference. Conclusion: The crystal orientation of the contact plane and material type significantly determine the welding quality. Welding on the close-packed plane of both substrates leads to the highest ultimate stress. The ultimate stress for Ni-Ni welding pairs is the highest, and that for Cu- Cu welded pairs is the lowest.

This paper describes a new design method to obtain the inelastic deformation of pipelines induced by temporary ground deformations. The proposed design method consists of an elastic solution and a strain conversion procedure which was developed to predict the inelastic strain distribution by using the elastic solution and a stress-strain curve. Roundhouse type, yield-plateau type, and trilinear stress-strain curves are considered. Validation of the proposed method is conducted by comparing the results predicted by the proposed method with the results obtained by finite element analyses.

The present study deals with the extended version of our previous research work. In this article, for predicting the entire weld bead geometry and engineering stress–strain curve of the cold metal transfer (CMT) weldment, a MATLAB based application window (second version) is developed with certain modifications. In the first version, for predicting the entire weld bead geometry, apart from weld bead characteristics, x and y coordinates (24 from each) of the extracted points are considered. Finally, in the first version, 53 output values (five for weld bead characteristics and 48 for x and y coordinates) are predicted using both multiple regression analysis (MRA) and adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) technique to get an idea related to the complete weld bead geometry without performing the actual welding process. The obtained weld bead shapes using both the techniques are compared with the experimentally obtained bead shapes. Based on the results obtained from the first version and the knowledge acquired from literature, the complete shape of weld bead obtained using ANFIS is in good agreement with the experimentally obtained weld bead shape. This motivated us to adopt a hybrid technique known as ANFIS (combined artificial neural network and fuzzy features) alone in this paper for predicting the weld bead shape and engineering stress–strain curve of the welded joint. In the present study, an attempt is made to evaluate the accuracy of the prediction when the number of trials is reduced to half and increasing the number of data points from the macrograph to twice. Complete weld bead geometry and the engineering stress–strain curves were predicted against the input welding parameters (welding current and welding speed), fed by the user in the MATLAB application window. Finally, the entire weld bead geometries were predicted by both the first and the second version are compared and validated with the experimentally obtained weld bead shapes. The similar procedure was followed for predicting the engineering stress–strain curve to compare with experimental outcomes.

An improved hydraulic servo structure testing machine has been used to conduct biaxial dynamic compression tests on eight types of engineered cementitious composites (ECC) with lateral pressure levels of 0, 0.125, 0.25, 0.5, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0 (the ratio of the compressive strength applied laterally to the static compressive strength of the specimen), and three strain rates of 10−4, 10−3 and 10−2 s−1. The failure mode, peak stress, peak strain, deformation modulus, stress-strain curve, and compressive toughness index of ECC under biaxial dynamic compressive stress state are obtained. The test results show that the lateral pressure affects the direction of ECC cracking, while the strain rate has little effect on the failure morphology of ECC. The growth of lateral pressure level and strain rate upgrades the limit failure strength and peak strain of ECC, and the small improvement is achieved in elastic modulus. A two-stage ECC biaxial failure strength standard was established, and the influence of the lateral pressure level and peak strain was quantitatively evaluated through the fitting curve of the peak stress, peak strain, and deformation modulus of ECC under various strain rates and lateral pressure levels. ECC’s compressive stress-strain curve can be divided into four stages, and a normalized biaxial dynamic ECC constitutive relationship is established. The toughness index of ECC can be increased with the increase of lateral pressure level, while the increase of strain rate can reduce the toughness index of ECC. Under the effect of biaxial dynamic load, the ultimate strength of ECC is increased higher than that of plain concrete.

Box Counting Method

Based on industrial CT technique, Meso-mechanical experiment was conducted on construction waste recycled brick to get the real-time CT image and stress-strain curve of brick during the loading process. Box counting method was used to calculate the fractal dimension of the inner pore transfixion and crack evolution. The results showed that lots of pore in the interfacial transition zone mainly resulted in the damage of the brick. With the increase of stress, the opening through-pore appeared and crack expanded, and the fractal dimension increased.

The Impact

Abstract We have investigated a relation between micromechanical processes and the stress-strain curve of a dry fiber network during tensile loading. By using a detailed particle-level simulation tool we investigate, among other things, the impact of “non-traditional” bonding parameters, such as compliance of bonding regions, work of separation and the actual number of effective bonds. This is probably the first three-dimensional model which is capable of simulating the fracture process of paper accounting for nonlinearities at the fiber level and bond failures. The failure behavior of the network considered in the study could be changed significantly by relatively small changes in bond strength, as compared to the scatter in bonding data found in the literature. We have identified that compliance of the bonding regions has a significant impact on network strength. By comparing networks with weak and strong bonds, we concluded that large local strains are the precursors of bond failures and not the other way around.

Silty Soil

Combined with the silty soil characteristics of the Yellow River alluvial plain and the subgrade filling of Ji-He expressway, the paper discusses silty soil, stabilized silty soil strength and stress-stain characteristics through the indoor triaxial shear test. The results show that the remodeling silty soil has obvious peak, brittle failure, low residual strength after being destroyed and the stress-strain curve shows a softening type in confining pressure 100kPa lower stress level. In the confining pressure 400kPa higher stress level, soil samples peak is not obvious,mainly plastic failure and the stress-strain curve is close to a hardening type. Compared to mixed with 8% lime, stabilized silty soil of mixed with 4% cement and 4% lime shows that the partial stress peak is more obvious when destroyed and the residual strength is drastically reduced and more incline to brittle failure. In different the age, compared to mixed with 8% lime, stabilized silty soil of mixed with 4% cement and 4% lime shows that internal friction angle becomes larger and cohesion improves gradually whose amplitude is much larger than internal friction angle. Therefore, a more effective way to stabilize the silty soil of the Yellow River alluvial plain is to select silty soil mixed with 4% cement and 4% lime.

3-ply Cu-Ni-Zn/Cu-Cr/Cu-Ni-Zn clad composite plates were prepared by roll bonding at 823K and their properties were characterized. No intermetallic compounds were observed at Cu-Ni-Zn/Cu-Cr interfaces in the as-rolled and heat-treated Cu/Ni-Zn/Cu-Cr/Cu-Ni-Zn clad plates. The strength of as-rolled clad plate reached up to 420MPa with the ductility of 13%. After heat treatment at 723K for 1.5 hours, the strength of Cu-Ni-Zn/Cu-Cr/Cu-Ni-Zn clad composite plate dropped to 340 MPa and the ductility increased to 20%. With annealing at 723K, there is no drastic drop of the stress before final fracture, meaning three plates were bonded together until the last part of the stress-strain curve. The peak of the conductivity (>70% of IACS) was attained after aging for 1.5 hrs, compatible with the typical peak aging condition of Cu-Cr alloy.
