A model based on the Euler-Bernoulli theory is used to assess the sensitivity of residual stresses in solid oxide fuel cells to the mechanical properties and geometry of the constituents. It considers different cell configurations, characterised by the pre ...
Open-pore 99.99% pure Al and Al-5 wt.% Mg foam produced by replication, with pores either 400 or 75 gm in average diameter, are tested in compression with repeated relaxation cycles, at room temperature. Similar data are collected on pure aluminium. Estima ...
Multiaxial experiments are performed on replicated aluminium foam using a custom-built apparatus. The foam structure is isotropic, and features open monomodal pores 75 mu m in average diameter. Plane stress (sigma(1), sigma(2), sigma(3) = 0) and axisymmetr ...
The gamma surfaces in the pyramidal I {1 -1 0 1} and II {1 1 -2 2} planes for hexagonal close packed Mg have been calculated using two embedded-atom-method potentials and by ab initio methods, and reasonable agreement is obtained for key stacking fault ene ...
Neutron diffraction is a technique often used for the non-destructive characterization of residual stresses in engineering materials and components. Measuring stresses within partially hollow objects with complex internal geometry however is challenging du ...
The temperature dependence of residual stresses in a WC-17.8vol.%Co cemented carbide was measured by neutron diffraction. The comparison of the WC lattice parameter within the WC-Co and within stress-free WC reference provides a measurement of lattice elas ...
A simple new model is proposed to predict the distribution of wind velocity and surface shear stress downwind of a rough-to-smooth surface transition. The wind velocity is estimated as a weighted average between two limiting logarithmic profiles: the first ...
A new model considering fixed and interlocked cracks for the analysis of reinforced concrete (RC) cracked membrane elements is presented. The model can be regarded as an extension of the cracked membrane model proposed by Kaufmann and Marti. Its value lies ...
We derive a three-dimensional constitutive theory accounting for length-scale dependent internal residual stresses in crystalline materials that develop due to a non-homogeneous spatial distribution of the excess dislocation (edge and screw) density. The s ...
In this paper, we demonstrate the integration of local oxidation and metal-gate strain technologies to induce 3.3%/5.6 GPa uniaxial tensile strain/stress in 2 μm long suspended Si nanowire MOSFETs, the highest process-based stress record in MOSFETs until n ...
