Effect of Double Annealing on the Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of a Medium Manganese Steel

open access: yessteel research international, EarlyView.
A double intercritical annealing strategy is proposed to tailor the multiphase microstructure and mechanical response of a medium‐Mn steel. The treatment produces an ultrafine mixture of ferrite, martensite and multiple austenite populations with graded thermal and mechanical stability, formed through austenite reversion and controlled retransformation.

An Improved True Triaxial Hoek–Brown Strength Criterion

open access: yes工程科学与技术, 2023
Hoek–Brown strength criterion has been widely used in rock and rock mechanics analysis, rock slope stability analysis, rock tunnel design, and other fields, but the conventional Hoek–Brown strength criterion does not consider the influence of ...

A new smooth failure criterion for concrete inspired by Lubliner's condition

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract A new failure criterion with 10 parameters is proposed, based on Lubliner's idea of joining two Drucker–Prager cones. The novelty lies in the way of introducing deviatoric shape variation: through two Podgórski's functions. This feature allows for improving plane stress cross‐section's compatibility with experimental data.

Uncovering hidden bias in neutron diffraction residual strain measurements

open access: yesJournal of Applied Crystallography, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates that diffraction‐based residual strain calculations and uncertainty estimates depend on how grain populations are sub‐sampled, with important implications for interpreting residual stresses in heterogeneous materials with fine‐scale microstructure and strain gradients.When calculating residual strain via neutron or X‐ray ...

Physical Activity Profile of School‐Aged Children Born Very Preterm and Its Association With Sleep

open access: yesActa Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To describe the association between different physical activity and sleep parameters in school‐aged children born very preterm. Methods A cross‐sectional analysis was done in a cohort of 6‐ to 10‐year‐old children born at < 32 weeks' gestation at the Department of Neonatology, University of Tübingen, Germany.

The Material Basis of 18th‐Century Meissen Porcelain

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the summer of 1708, the quest for making hard‐paste porcelain from Saxonian clay and other mineral resources succeeded. This was achieved by applying as its essential ingredient newly discovered pure kaolin from Heidelsberg near Aue, western Saxon Ore Mountains.

Effect of Intermediate Principal Stress on the Strength, Deformation, and Permeability of Sandstone

open access: yesEnergies, 2018
Although the mechanical behaviors and flow aspects of sandstone have been previously investigated, studies of the effect of the intermediate principal stress (σ2) on the strength, deformation, and permeability of sandstone are lacking. In this work,
