Numerical Investigation on Stress Intensity Factor and J Integral in Friction Stir Welded Joint through XFEM method

Fracture and Structural Integrity, 2018
In fracture mechanics (domain of cracked environments), it is concerned to forecast the behavior of the structures until their ruin. Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is a new process for solid-state joining, it can weld high strength aluminum alloys from ...

Study on Wall Slip Critical Conditions of High-Burn-Rate Propellants Based on Rheological Tests and Inert Material Cleaning Technology

Applied Sciences
Composite solid propellant mixers face severe post-mixing cleaning challenges, especially for high-burn-rate propellants. Manual cleaning remains necessary due to the high viscosity and friction sensitivity of energetic ballistic modifiers (EBMs), which ...

AI-Based Prediction of Numerical Earthquakes Using (Pseudo) Acoustic Emission

Applied Mechanics
The Discrete Element Method is widely used in applied mechanics, particularly in situations where material continuity breaks down (fracturing, crushing, friction, granular flow) and classical rheological models fail (phase transition between solid and ...

Observation of a Dislocation Related Interfacial Friction Mechanism in Mobile Solid $^4$He

, 2012
We report a study of the temperature and stress dependence of the friction associated with a relative motion of two masses of solid $^4$He in contact. The situation where "two masses" coupled only by friction exists emerges spontaneously during a disordering of a single crystal contained inside a annular sample space of torsional oscillator (TO). Under

Bridging Polymer Brushes and Coatings Through Ultra‐Thick Growth by Surface‐Initiated Photoiniferter Polymerization

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Surface‐initiated photoiniferter‐mediated polymerization (SI‐PIMP) enables the controlled growth of UHMW polymer brushes with multi‐micrometer thicknesses, bridging conventional brushes and bulk‐like coatings. UHMW brushes are synthesized through a controlled/living process; they provide low friction and enhanced wear resistance under aqueous ...

Increasing Inter‐Micellar Connectivity Toughens and Imparts Cooling‐Induced Shape Memory in Micellar Hydrogels

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Oligomerizing Pluronic triblock copolymers provides a processing strategy for tuning the mechanical properties and stimuli‐responsive behaviors of micellar hydrogels. Varying oligomer fraction produces hydrogels spanning brittle to highly extensible responses; maintaining micellar architectures enables cooling‐induced reverse thermal shape memory and ...

Molecular Rotors: From Newtonian Fluids to Functional Materials as Viscosity and Temperature Sensing Tools

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Molecular rotors are fluorescent molecules that are sensitive to viscosity and temperature variations in the environment. They exhibit a direct correlation between fluorescence and viscosity within Newtonian fluids. However, this correlation becomes less straightforward in complex systems.
