A temperature gradient across the thickness of this shape memory polymer (SMP) sheet induces folding along the line of contact with the heating ribbon. Varying the electric current changes the degree of folding and the extent of local material flow. This method can be used to create practical three-dimensional (3D) structures. Sheets of PSPS and NPS were cut to 10 × 20 mm samples, and their folding angles were plotted with respect to time, as obtained from in situ videography. In addition, the use of polyimide tape (Kapton) was investigated for controlling the direction of self-folding. Results show that folding happens on the opposite side of the sample with respect to the tape, regardless of which side the heating ribbon is on, or whether gravity is opposing the folding direction. The results are quantitatively explained using a viscoelastic finite element model capable of describing bidirectional folds arising from the interplay between viscoelastic relaxation and strain mismatch between polystyrene and polyimide. Given the tunability of fold times and the extent of local material flow, resistive-heat-assisted folding is a promising approach for manufacturing complex 3D lightweight structures by origami engineering.","PeriodicalId":15700,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Engineering Materials and Technology-transactions of The Asme","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2021-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89928439","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It was found that the corrosion-induced failure rate of the coating–substrate interface upon exposure to an aggressive corrosive medium was high. Microscopic pits tend to appear at the interface of the coating and the substrate. The permeation channel at the coating interface did cause the corrosive medium, primarily the chloride ions, to gradually diffuse from the sides of the sample to the inner surface of the interface thereby enabling the initiation and continued progression of “local” corrosion. The process for failure due essentially to corrosion of the coating was established, while ensuring to include the infiltration phase, the presence of “local” corrosion phases, expansion, if any, due to corrosion, and eventually culminating in failure. Based on the experimental results, a finite element simulation of the “local” corrosion occurring at the coating interface was executed. The results revealed the microscopic pits at the interface to progressively increase the “local” stress concentration on the surface of the substrate but were found to have little influence on overall stress distribution in the coating. It was also found the shape of the etch pit had an effect on failure expansion under the influence of stress. The numerical method can be used to predict structural failure caused by corrosion pits at the interface of the coating–substrate system in an aggressive environment.","PeriodicalId":15700,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Engineering Materials and Technology-transactions of The Asme","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2021-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87419282","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cellular lattice structures have been at the forefront of this movement due to the ability to tailor their mechanical response through tuning of the topology, surface thickness, cell size, and cell density. In this work, the mechanical properties of additively manufactured periodic cellular lattices are evaluated and compared, primarily through the topology and surface thickness parameters. The evaluated lattices were based upon triply periodic minimal surfaces (TPMS), including novel variations on the base TPMS designs, which have not been tested previously. These lattices were fabricated out of Inconel 718 (IN718) through the selective laser melting (SLM) process. Specimens were tested under uniaxial compression, and the resultant mechanical properties were determined. Further discussion of the fabrication quality and deformation behavior of the lattices is provided. Results of this work indicate that the Diamond TPMS lattice has superior mechanical properties to the other lattices tested. Additionally, with the exception of the primitive TPMS lattice, the base TPMS designs exhibited superior mechanical performance to their derivative lattice designs.","PeriodicalId":15700,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Engineering Materials and Technology-transactions of The Asme","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2021-04-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83461845","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The compressive failure mechanism of the composite is analyzed by a multi-scale analysis method, which ranges from micro-scale defect propagation, through meso-scale microstructure failure, to macro-scale material failure. In order to predict the out-of-plane compressive properties of 3D fine weave-pierced C/C composite at different strain rates, a strain-rate-dependent compressive constitutive model is proposed. The results show that the out-of-plane compressive behavior of the 3D fine weave-pierced C/C composite is sensitive to strain rate. With increasing the strain rate, the initial compressive modulus, the maximum stress, and the strain at the maximum stress increase. The difference in mechanical behavior between quasi-static and high strain rate compression is owing to the strain rate effect on the defect propagation of the 3D fine weave-pierced C/C composite.

It addresses the question on how notch length and notch geometry is related to the tearing strength and tearing processes. The system considered consists of elastic-brittle fibers connected by strong interfiber bonds. Fiber fracture is the only failure mechanism. For a random fiber orientation case, deformation of the unnotched specimen occurs by long-range fiber chains connecting the load inducing boundaries, and failure is by tearing the cross section. The strength of the notched random fiber sheets is well described by a net section criterion, independent of the notch geometry. For a fiber orientation with symmetry relative to the loading direction, tensile loading is transferred by formation of the X-shaped fiber chains centered in the specimen. The subsequent failure occurs along the fiber chain by shear. Thus, the tearing strength is independent of the notch depth in double-edge notched and single-edge notched specimens, when the presence of shallow notch does not disrupt the force chains in the model. As the notch disturbs the fiber chains, alternative shear failure path forms near the notch tip, leading to a dependence of failure strength on the notch geometry. Then, the failure strength of notched nonwoven networks is described by a shear strength and a notch geometry term.","PeriodicalId":15700,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Engineering Materials and Technology-transactions of The Asme","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2021-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81089887","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two of the most commercialized and powerful PBF methods for fabricating full-density metallic parts are the laser PBF (L-PBF) and electron beam PBF (E-PBF) processes. In this study, a multiphysics-based 3D numerical model is developed to compare the thermo-fluid properties of Ti-6Al-4V melt pools formed by the L-PBF and E-PBF processes. The temperature-dependent properties of Ti-6Al-4V alloy and the parameters for the laser and electron beams are incorporated in the model as the user-defined functions (UDFs). The melt-pool geometry and its thermo-fluid behavior are investigated using the finite volume (FV) method, and results for the variations of temperature, thermo-physical properties, velocity, geometry of the melt pool, and cooling rate in the two processes are compared under similar irradiation conditions. For an irradiance level of 26 J/mm3 and a beam interaction time of 1.212 ms, simulation results show that the L-PBF process gives a faster cooling rate (1. 5 K/μs) than that in the E-PBF process (0.74 K/μs). The magnitude of liquid velocity in the melt pool is also higher in L-PBF than that in E-PBF. The numerical model is validated by comparing the simulation results for the melt-pool geometry with the PBF experimental results and comparing the numerical melt-front position with the analytical solution for the classical Stephan problem of melting of a phase-change material (PCM).","PeriodicalId":15700,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Engineering Materials and Technology-transactions of The Asme","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2021-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73463135","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
