Cyclic loading of WC-Ni by FEM with a realistic 3D morphology

Daniele Mari, Lucas Eric Jacques Degeneve

A Finite Element Model produced from a real WC-10wt.%Co sample is used to study the mechanical behavior of cemented carbides in compression tests. The model is obtained by slicing the sample by Focused Ion Beam and reconstructing it. This model is used to ...

Sustainable, recyclable and biodegradable castor oil-derived elastomers enabled by dynamic acetoacetyl formed amides

Youwei Ma

Developing sustainable, recyclable, and biodegradable elastomers with the mechanical properties comparable to commercial polymers presents a formidable challenge. To this end, we synthesize a kind of mechanically robust elastomers cross -linked by acetoace ...

On the slip burst amplitude cutoff in dislocation-rich microcrystals

Andreas Mortensen, Luciano Borasi

The plastic deformation of small-scale face-centered cubic metals exhibits intermittent slip burst events that appear on stress-strain curves as sudden strain jumps and/or load drops. These events are generally attributed to the avalanche-like cooperative ...

Elastic limit tensile stress of UHPFRC: Method of determination and effect of fiber orientation

Eugen Brühwiler, Emmanuel Denarié, Jian Zhan

This paper discusses the influence of fiber orientation on elastic limit tensile stress of ultra-high performance fiber reinforced cementitious composites (UHPFRC). An original model relating elastic limit tensile stress to fiber orientation is proposed, a ...

Automatic and high-precision acoustic emission-based structural health monitoring of concrete structures

Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion, Seyyedmaalek Momeni

Acoustic emission (AE) monitoring is a useful technique to monitor the health of a structure continuously, helping to prevent potential failure. AE are elastic waves produced and emitted during fracture processes inside a material and are recorded by senso ...

Thermophysical and thermomechanical properties of basalt-phenolic FRP rebars under high temperature

Thomas Keller, Hongwei Zhu

An experimental investigation was conducted on the thermophysical and thermomechanical properties of phenolic-basalt fiber-reinforced polymer (P-BFRP) rebars subjected to high temperature. As a comparison, vinylBFRP (V-BFRP) and epoxy-BFRP (E-BFRP) rebars ...

Finite element simulation of the Portevin-Le Chatelier effect in highly reinforced metal matrix composites

Andreas Mortensen

The Portevin- Le Chatelier effect in an AlCu/Al2O3 composite with a large volume fraction (60%) of ceramic particles is investigated from a numerical point of view using a strainageing visco-plastic material model for the metallic matrix and several differ ...

Joining of Oxide Dispersion-Strengthened Steel Using Spark Plasma Sintering

Cyril Cayron

Difficulties with joining oxide dispersion-strengthened (ODS) steels using classical welding processes have led to the development of alternative joining techniques such as spark plasma sintering (SPS). SPS, which is classically employed for performing sin ...

Crack Nucleation in the Adhesive Wear of an Elastic-Plastic Half-Space

Jean-François Molinari, Guillaume Anciaux, Lucas Henri Galilée Frérot

The detachment of material in an adhesive wear process is driven by a fracture mechanism which is controlled by a critical length-scale. Previous efforts in multi-asperity wear modeling have applied this microscopic process to rough elastic contact. Howeve ...
