Therefore, the X-ray stress measurement that is Non-destructive inspection is effective technique. However, there are few reports that described X-rays stress measurement about magnesium alloy. The report considered about X-ray elastic constant and stress constant in detail is not found. In this report, X-ray elastic and stress constants of rolled AZ61 magnesium alloy were measured. As result, by removing surface layer that has anelastic behavior and considering texture of specimen, X-ray elastic and stress constants can be measured. The X-ray elastic constants of AZ61 magnesium alloy in as received specimens were 41.2 GPa by using 101 _ 4 diffraction and 39.9 GPa by using 101 _ 5 diffraction.","PeriodicalId":17366,"journal":{"name":"journal of the Japan Society for Testing Materials","volume":"93 1","pages":"539-544"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83337169","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Kurashiki","doi":"10.2472/JSMS.63.380","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2472/JSMS.63.380","url":null,"abstract":"In this study, we propose a FE model for dry fabric forming simulation that can express the tension dependent shear behavior in order to predict the wrinkles, one of the major forming defects. Automakers are gradually using more carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) in mass production cars, because the development of resin transfer molding (RTM) have reduced its cycle time to less than 10 minutes. Finite element analysis (FEA) is essential to the vehicle design process, so numerical simulation of CFRP is strongly desired today. Forming simulation is especially important, because the performance of the final composite part strongly depends on changes in fiber orientation during the preforming. Moreover wrinkle is one of the major defects in preforming. RTM usually involves fabric reinforcement. During forming of fabric, large in-plane shear deformations typically occur. The reason for this is that the shear resistance is very low at the initial stage, because the deformation is governed by yarn contact friction at the cross-sections. Accurately expressing the in-plane shear behavior of fabric is very important for accurate forming simulation. In most simulation models the shear resistance of fabric is assumed to be independent from the tension along the yarn. However, meso-model predictions of the picture frame and bias-extension tests suggest this to be an invalid assumption. In this study, a micromechanical model that introduces the stress component due to the yarn rotational friction is adapted to the dry fabric forming simulation. In other words, this can express the shear behavior that depends on the tensions in the yarns. The results using this micromechanical model are in good agreement with the meso-model results in the various boundary conditions.","PeriodicalId":17366,"journal":{"name":"journal of the Japan Society for Testing Materials","volume":"8 1","pages":"380-385"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87056630","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The peened surface layer showed much higher Vickers hardness and compressive residual stress than those of a quenched and tempered SNCM420 steel. The increased Vickers hardness was mainly caused by an increase in the strain-induced transformed martensite fraction. The compressive residual stress was increased by the increases in size and gravity of shot material and arc-height. The higher compressive residual stress was principally associated with (1) plastic strain due to severe plastic deformation and (2) expansion strain due to the strain-induced transformation of metastable retained austenite. Contribution of the (2) was approximately 30% of total residual stress.","PeriodicalId":17366,"journal":{"name":"journal of the Japan Society for Testing Materials","volume":"18 1","pages":"662-668"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81241047","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, the feasibility of using the scallop shells with DCPD precipitate after phosphate ion removal as an adsorbent of lead in waste water was evaluated. When the scallop shells with DCPD precipitate were immersed in an aqueous solution containing 50ppm Pb 2+ at pH3, the concentration of Pb 2+ in the solution deceased with increasing immersion time. The Pb 2+ removal rate largely depended on the amount of DCPD precipitate on the surface of the scallop shells and increased with the amount of DCPD precipitate. From the results of SEM observation, EDX and XRD analysis, it was found that after immersing scallop shells with DCPD precipitate in the Pb2+ aqueous solution, DCPD converted into HAP(Ca 10 (PO 4 ) 6 (OH) 2 ) and hydroxypyromophite(Pb 5 (PO 4 ) 3 OH, HPY) whisker precipitated on the surface of HAP crystal. When DCPD converts into HAP, surplus PO 43- ions dissolve into the solution and react with Pb 2+ ions to form Pb 5 (PO 4 ) 3 OH. There results show that the scallop shells used for the adsorbent of phosphate ions would be reused as the adsorbent of lead in wastewater.","PeriodicalId":17366,"journal":{"name":"journal of the Japan Society for Testing Materials","volume":"47 1","pages":"442-445"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75244845","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The stiffness of specimens decreases gradually with the number of loading cycles. The stiffness reduction correlates with the decrease in bending strength and the increase in viscoelastic loss, which suggests the stiffness reduction process corresponds to the damage accumulation process under the cyclic loading. The stiffness reduction process whose rates increase with increasing temperature and deformation amplitude, has been proved to be the thermally activated process depending on load stress (deformation amplitude). Analyzing the stiffness reduction curves at various temperatures and loads by means of reduced variable methods, a master curve that can be used to estimate a fatigue life has been composed, and an activation energy and an activation volume are estimated to be 26±3kcal/mole and 1.1×10 m 3 respectively.

The PVA loading of the slurry scarcely affected the pore volume of sintered bodies. However, the pore size decreased and the compressive strength increased with increasing PVA loading in the slurry. When PVA was added, branch and ladder structures occurred in pore walls. Therefore, three dimensional pore structures developed due to the increased in the connectivities of the pore walls, resulting in the decrease in pore size and the increase in compressive strength.","PeriodicalId":17366,"journal":{"name":"journal of the Japan Society for Testing Materials","volume":"171 1","pages":"437-441"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77775460","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
