Numerical evaluation of expansion loops for pipe subjected to thermal displacements
The thermal expansion can lead to the high stress on the pipe. The problem can be overcome using expansion loops in a certain length depending on the material’s elastic modulus, diameter, the amount of expansion, and the pipe’s allowable stresses ...

On the switching between negative and positive thermal expansion in framework materials
The control of thermal expansion represents a challenge in materials design. This work shows that the length of the lattice parameter is a key element for controlling thermal expansion. By varying the lattice parameter through external pressure, chemical

A Modified Kerner Model to Predict the Thermal Expansion Coefficient of Multi-Phase Reinforced Composites Al6092/SiC/LAS [PDF]
In this work, a new supplementary formula was introduced to modify the Kerner model. This supplementary formula enable the Kerner model to predict the thermal expansion coefficient of multi-phase reinforced composites by normalization of the thermal ...

The thermal expansion of solids [PDF]
From the theory of normal vibrations of a lattice, a practical means of obtaining the equation of state of an ionic solid is developed from which the thermal expansion can be derived. Using previous work by Kellermann, application is made to the case of sodium chloride and the results compared with experiment.

Fundamentals of Thermal Expansion and Thermal Contraction
Thermal expansion is an important property of substances. Its theoretical prediction has been challenging, particularly in cases the volume decreases with temperature, i.e., thermal contraction or negative thermal expansion at high temperatures. In this paper, a new theory recently developed by the authors has been reviewed and further examined in the ...

Thermal expansion, electrical conductivity and hardness of Mn3Zn0.5Sn0.5N/Al composites
Mn3Zn0.5Sn0.5N/Al composites were successfully prepared by sintering at 623 K and 723 K. It is found that the thermal expansion of Al is effectively decreased with the addition of negative thermal expansion material Mn3Zn0.5Sn0.5N, which plays the role ...
