This paper introduces a generalized form of the prismatic tensegrity structures by converting a single-loop linkage into truss, in which the lines of joint axes rather than the nodes have dihedral symmetry. Since the vector space formed by the line coordinates of these joints has rank degeneracy one, the generated tensegrity structures are kinematically and statically indeterminate. These tensegrity structures are further proved to be prestress-stable, generally, for the total or partial parameter space of lines based on a second-order analysis of screws, and are called dihedral-line tensegrity structures in this paper. Specifically, this paper focuses on symmetric dihedral-line tensegrity structures, in which the nodes also have dihedral symmetry but in two orbits and members in seven orbits, and are called two-orbit dihedral-line tensegrity structures.

For a successful peeling process, the following conditions are required simultaneously: the interface between the film and the wafer is debonded, the interface between the wafer and the substrate remains undelaminated, and the wafer stays intact. However, there are relatively few studies focusing on the underlying mechanism in this peeling process. Here, a theoretical model is developed to investigate the competing behavior of interface delamination and wafer cracking for the bilayer film-substrate system. Based on the constant-stress (Dugdale) cohesive law and Euler-Bernoulli beam theory, both the competing interface delamination criterion and the wafer cracking criterion are determined. The corresponding competing maps of interface delamination and wafer cracking are obtained, in which the interface delamination path and the wafer safety status can be predicted. The effect of several dimensionless parameters on the competing behavior of interface delamination and wafer cracking is examined systematically, including the property of the geometry, the material, and the interface of the bilayer film-substrate system. The theoretical model is validated by both finite element analysis (FEA) and experimental results.

The deformation plasticity model and the incremental plasticity model coincides for proportional loading and since the deformation plasticity model is path-independent, the computational cost and implementation complexity reduce significantly compared to the conventional incremental elastoplasticity. To investigate the deformation plasticity model combined with topology optimization, we compare three common elastoplastic optimization objectives: stiffness, strain energy and plastic work. The possibility to limit the peak local plastic work while maximizing the strain energy is also investigated. The consistent analytical sensitivity analysis which only requires the terminal state is derived using adjoint method.

The materials produced through this process exhibit unique microstructures and mechanical properties, which necessitate dedicated study and characterization. In this context, our research focuses on the experimental characterization of the isothermal cyclic viscoplastic mechanical response of Hastelloy X (HX) over the temperature range of 22 to 1000 °C and at various strain rates, addressing a current gap in the literature. Recognizing the need for material models that can accurately represent the cyclic mechanical response of LPBF HX across a broad temperature range, we developed a robust extension of the viscoplastic isotropic-kinematic hardening Chaboche model, intended for applications in the thermomechanical simulation of the LPBF process for the analysis of residual stress and distortion, as well as for assessing the mechanical integrity of LPBF components. The extension involves expressing the entire set of model parameters explicitly with analytical functions to account for their temperature dependence. Consequently, the model includes a relatively large number of parameters to represent the isotropic-kinematic hardening viscoplastic response of the alloy over a wide temperature range, and hence to overcome the endeavor of its systematic calibration, a dedicated calibration approach was introduced. The model ultimately demonstrated its capability to precisely represent the isothermal response of the alloy over the examined temperatures and strain rates. To evaluate the model’s predictiveness for non-isothermal conditions, out-of-phase thermomechanical cyclic experiments were also conducted as independent benchmark tests, where the model’s predictions were fairly consistent with the experimental results.
