These differences of the morphology strongly alter the deformation mechanism, such as craze formation and cavitation in the rubber particles. The effects of mixing of ABS resins with various graft ratio and particle size on the mechanical properties and phase morphology are also discussed.","PeriodicalId":377759,"journal":{"name":"Materials Science Research International","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2000-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130264584","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}

We present two specific examples of potentially useful connections, (1) using molecular dynamics to determine a stress-displacement relation for direct use in continuum-level analysis, and (2) a comparative study of dislocation microstructure evolution by discrete dislocation dynamics and finite-element method.

The Monte Carlo simulation is carried out to demonstrate the feasibility of the theoretical model. It is performed for a two dimensional case when dislocation dipoles are formed on an underlying lattice under applied loads.

For this purpose, a ceramic strength database utilized on a personal computer was temporarily constructed so that collected data on flaws could be compiled as records in the database. It was clarified that distributions of the equivalent crack length l for several ceramics were nearly fitted to normal distribution functions. The distribution of l was investigated for every type of flaw, and it was found to shift toward a longer length region in the order of embedded, surface, and corner flaws. The flaw data were also correlated with strength and microstructural parameters. In the relation to the strength, the strength was reduced as a whole with the decrease in the crack length, while the lower bound of strength scatter was predicted by a modified relation of the fracture mechanics criterion for long cracks. It was revealed that the flaw size increased with the increase in the grain size or the porosity. The relation of a Petch-Hall type was observed between the grain size and the mean strength estimated by using the mean value of l. Some useful suggestions were offered for the improvement of ceramic strength.","PeriodicalId":377759,"journal":{"name":"Materials Science Research International","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130271408","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 local rule of CA taken in the present paper is the weighted addition modulo two rule. Each weight is chosen referring to the reaction-diffusion coupled differential equations with respect to immobile and mobile dislocation densities. The mesoscopic evolution of the immobile dislocation density is driven by the space-oriented bifurcation (Turing instability) and results in the ladder-type self-organization. Instability related to the space- and the time-oriented bifurcations is in detail discussed in a one-dimensional model. A stress amplitude-like parameter and two diffusion coefficients of the immobile and mobile dislocation densities highly affect the sequential evolution process. Finally, a two-dimensional hexagonal cell model representing a {111} glide plane of the fcc crystal is proposed. The same local rule is applied along the three preferential sliding directions for easy description of mutual interaction between cells. The evolution yields a localized isotropic and a one-directional anisotropic flow patterns of dislocation densities according to the combination of the three diffusion coefficients.","PeriodicalId":377759,"journal":{"name":"Materials Science Research International","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121740903","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}
