A strategy to improve the work-hardening behavior of Ti–6Al–4V parts produced by additive manufacturing

open access: yesMaterials Research Letters, 2017
To improve the mechanical properties of additively manufactured parts, specific heat treatments must be developed. Annealing of electron beam-melted Ti–6Al–4V was performed at sub-transus temperatures and followed by water quenching.

Shakedown and collapse of elastic-plastic structures under variable and cyclic loads

open access: yesVietnam Journal of Mechanics, 2008
The paper presents an introduction to the results obtained mainly by the author in shakedown analysis of elastic plastic structures, with the shakedown theorems for elastic plastic kinematic hardening materials playing the central role. Some illustrative

Constitutive modeling of kinematic-hardening and damage in solder joints

open access: yes, 2007
Solder constitutive models are important as they are widely used in FEA simulations to predict the lifetime of soldered assemblies. This paper briefly reviews some common constitutive laws to capture creep in solder and presents work on laws capturing ...

A Soft Robotic Fish With a Dielectric Elastomer Actuator Body and Negative Stiffness Spine

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This work introduces a bio‐mimetic soft robotic fish driven by fiber‐reinforced dielectric elastomer actuators integrated as its body. By prestretching this active skin against a flexible spine, a negative stiffness system is created, enabling large‐amplitude bending.

Hybrid Continuum Robot Designs and Architectures for Healthcare Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Hybrid continuum robots represent an emerging class of flexible manipulators that blend materials, structures, and actuation concepts from the established fields of soft and continuum robotics. This review introduces an accessible framework to distinguish key hybridization approaches, surveys current designs aimed at complex clinical applications, and ...

Spring-Back Evaluation of Stretch Bending Process Based on Chaboche Combined Isotropic-Kinematic Hardening Laws

open access: yes, 2011
We present a study on spring-back prediction in the stretching bending process using the Chaboche model combined isotropic-kinematic hardening law and Mises yielding criterion, and a material user subroutine (VUMAT, UMAT) program was developed base on ...

3D‐Printing Aided Rapid Prototyping of Pretensioned Tensegrity Structures for Robotic Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Printing, injection molding, and assembly (PMA) is a method for rapid prototyping mesoscale, topologically complex, and tensioned tensegrity structures. In combination with PMA method, two mold design strategies: modular mold and compact channel layout, enable efficiency and scalability for tensegrity fabrication.

A MODIFIED SHAKEDOWN ANALYSIS FOR KINEMATIC HARDENING PIPING UNDER THERMAL-MECHANICAL LOAD

open access: yesJixie qiangdu, 2020
Shakedown analysis is a powerful tool for the ratchet & alternating plasticity prediction of the pressure piping under thermal-mechanical loads. In order to achieve the shakedown analysis containing the synergetic influence of the kinematic hardening and

Kinematic and isotropic strain hardening in copper with highly aligned nanoscale twins

open access: yesMaterials Research Letters, 2018
The kinematic and isotropic strain hardening was investigated in columnar-grained copper with preferentially oriented nanoscale twins deformed at two different strain rates of 5 × 10−5 and 5 × 10−3 s−1.
