Both surface tension and surface elasticity stiffen the solids with liquid inclusions. The surface tension in elastic capillary number is replaced with surface Young’s modulus to define the second elastic capillary number. The aspect ratio of the included liquids is used to indicate the stiffening effect for both numbers. A smaller aspect ratio corresponds to a larger stiffening effect. In a typical FE analysis, when either number is 1 and the applied strain is 4%, the aspect ratio decreases by 7.4% due to surface tension and 2.6% due to surface elasticity. Compared to surface tension, surface elasticity has a similar but smaller influence on the deformation of solids with liquid inclusions. Extensive FE calculations are performed to establish the fitting formula for the aspect ratio as a function of elastic capillary number, the second elastic capillary number, and the applied strain. Surface viscoelasticity is modelled in the FE method by converting surface viscoelastic properties into the viscoelastic properties of the equivalent shell. The time-dependent aspect ratio due to surface viscoelasticity is presented and FE results show the same trend as those calculated from the approximated theory. The internal pressure of the included liquid is obtained from FE analysis and is compared with the theoretical estimation employing the Young–Laplace equation.","PeriodicalId":18648,"journal":{"name":"Modelling and Simulation in Materials Science and Engineering","volume":"22 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-03-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140313967","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}

To the authors’ knowledge, the formulation of the problem is always done with respect to a single constitutive relation and so limits the implementer to a single scheme with which to model relaxation. Furthermore, all current constitutive relations involve the finding of fitting parameters for an analytical function, which is a sufficiently painful process to warrant the study of best fitting procedures to this day. In contrast, this effort is the first full derivation of the two dimensional problem from fundamental principles. It is also the first generalization of the problem, which frees users to select constitutive relations without re-derivation or re-expression of the problem. This approach is also the first approach to the problem that could lead to the elimination of constitutive relations for representing relaxation in viscoelastic materials. Following, the full derivation, several common constitutive relations are outlined with analysis of how they may best be implemented in the generalized form. Several expressions for viscoelastic terms are also provided given linear, quadratic, and exponential interpolation assumptions.","PeriodicalId":18648,"journal":{"name":"Modelling and Simulation in Materials Science and Engineering","volume":"3 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140314227","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 results displayed that the small grain gradient samples exhibited grain size softening. The shear angle and cutting ratio increased with the increase in the grain gradient. The grain boundaries of the low grain gradient samples were damaged and slid during the cutting process. Moreover, the dislocation density increased with the increasing grain gradient. The multi-dislocation nodes and the Lomer–Cottrell junction were produced in the grain coarsening gradient samples, contributing to work hardening. The cutting forces from low to high cutting velocities were 136.70, 147.91, 165.82, and 164.79 nN, which confirmed that the cutting forces increased with increased cutting velocity.

We employ the threshold dynamics method, which allows for unparalleled computational speed, to simulate the full-field curvature motion of grain boundaries in a large polycrystal ensemble. Two sets of numerical experiments are performed to explore the effect of GB anisotropy on the evolution of microstructure features. In the first experiment, we focus on abnormal grain growth and find that GB anisotropy introduces a statistical preference for certain grain orientations. This leads to changes in the overall grain size distribution from the isotropic case. In the second experiment, we examine the development of texture and the growth of twin boundaries for different initial microstructures. We find that texture development and twin growth are more pronounced when the initial microstructure has a dominant fraction of high-angle grain boundaries.

However, the traditional approaches used to simulate grain boundaries lack physical fidelity and are often incompatible across different simulation methods. We review a new mesoscale interface boundary condition based on Burgers vector conservation and kinetic dislocation reaction processes. The main focus of the paper is to demonstrate how to unify this boundary condition with different plasticity simulation approaches such as the crystal plasticity finite element (CPFEM), continuum dislocation dynamics (CDD), and discrete dislocation dynamics (DDD) methods. In DDD and CDD, plasticity is simulated based on dislocation activity; in the former, dislocations are described as discrete lines while in the latter in terms of dislocation density. CPFEM simulates plasticity in terms of slip on each slip system, without explicit treatment of dislocations; it is suitable for larger scale simulations. To validate our interface boundary condition, we implemented simulations using both the CPFEM method and a two-dimensional CDD model. Our results show that our compact and physically realistic interface boundary condition can be easily integrated into multiscale simulation methods and yield novel results consistent with experimental observations.","PeriodicalId":18648,"journal":{"name":"Modelling and Simulation in Materials Science and Engineering","volume":"36 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-02-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140009225","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 is found that the band gap of Mg2Si, Mg2Ge and Mg2Sn decreases with applied uniaxial pressure and changes its direction from Г-Х to Г-К. The results of phonon frequencies indicate that the studied compounds are dynamically stable at zero and higher uniaxial strains. Furthermore, the uniaxial compression and temperature dependence of the Gibbs free energy, heat capacity and thermal expansion coefficient are investigated in the frame of the quasi-harmonic approximation. The semiclassical-Boltzmann method is used to study the Seebeck coefficient, electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and figure of merit ZT as a function of both temperature and uniaxial pressure.
