Such defects occur at all stages of the lifetime of structures. In most cases the estimation of their hazard and determination of allowable sizes attract attention when the defects can lead to brittle or quasi-brittle fractures. In this case, the models of linear and nonlinear destruction mechanics are applied, when the defects are considered as internal elliptical or surface semielliptical cracks. The stochastic variety of shapes, sizes, locations, and orientations of defects has a significant influence on the failure mechanisms. Therefore, the probabilistic problem of estimating allowable sizes of defects according to the criteria of risk of failure is relevant. This paper examines a general approach to estimation of the hazards of defects according to risk criteria. Two formulations of the probabilistic problem of risk estimation are presented: on the basis of single-parameter and two-parameter failure criteria. The risk function is used as the calculated characteristic, represented as the probability of failure according to a given criterion. An equation of the risk function based on single-parameter failure criteria is presented. The main focus is on the probabilistic model based on the two-parameter Morozov failure criterion. This criterion provides a wide range of opportunities for analyzing various failure mechanisms with variations in the size of defects. An expression for the risk function based on the family of two-dimensional Lu–Bhattacharya probability distributions of Weibull type is derived. It is shown that correlations between failure mechanisms can significantly influence the probabilities of failure and, consequently, the allowable size of defects.</p>","PeriodicalId":585,"journal":{"name":"Inorganic Materials","volume":"59 15","pages":"1524 - 1531"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140884475","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 object of the study was a sample of wastewater from the largest gas field Mustakillikning 25 yilligi in the Surkhandarya region of the Republic of Uzbekistan. It was shown that the sample was salty (dry residue was 34.1–31.7 g/dm<sup>3</sup>) and had a neutral reaction. The method of atomic emission analysis of water revealed high concentrations of potassium, sodium, and sulfur, a significant amount of calcium and magnesium, and a significantly smaller amount of a number of other elements contained in water. Study of various methods of sample preparation for ionometric measurements of chloride ion shows that a significant proportion of chlorine is bound with organic components of water. It is shown that boiling (~100°C) or fusing at 800–850°C with NaOH eliminates the interfering effect of accompanying components (sulfur, iodine, and organic matter) on the chloride determination. The results obtained provide quantitative determination of the total content of chlorine in water both in the form of a free chloride ion and in a bound state, probably in the composition of organochlorine compounds. The presence of fluorine in the organic part of the sample has not been revealed. The possibility of using a single sample preparation (boiling or fusing) for the determination of both chloride and fluoride ions has been shown. The interfering effect of the accompanying elements upon fluorine determination is masked by a buffer solution regulating the total ionic strength.

A method for selective and highly sensitive simultaneous amperometric determination of adrenaline, melatonin, and cortisol with the use of a two-detector flow-injection system is developed. Screen-printed carbon electrodes (SPE) with one or two working electrodes modified with a gold–palladium binary system that exhibits catalytic activity upon electrooxidation of the organic compounds under consideration are used as detectors. The high sensitivity of determination is attributed to the catalytic properties of the metal modifier: the transition from the metal to the binary system leads to an increase in the catalytic oxidation current of hormones. The selectivity of determination of adrenaline in the presence of melatonin and cortisol is provided by the difference in the oxidation potentials of the hormones on the proposed electrode. For selective determination of melatonin and cortisol, the surface of the modified working electrode is coated with a Nafion film. The difference of potentials of the peaks of oxidation of adrenaline, melatonin, and cortisol on such an electrode is 300 mV. The proposed method is tested in the analysis of urine samples. The flow-injection scheme is supplemented with a dialyzer and a chromatographic minicolumn to eliminate the interfering effect of electrophilic compounds.

As exemplified by experimentally obtained data on the kinetics of cyclic and one-sided accumulated plastic deformations in each of the half-cycles (cycles) of loading during static and low-cycle tests of specimens from a heat-resistant nickel alloy, it is shown that, under conditions of cyclic elastoplastic deformation, these deformation characteristics have an essentially nonlinear pattern of change, which is described on the basis of power equations and the parameters of cyclic deformation diagrams included in them. Here, the parameters of these equations depend on the type of cyclically hardening, softening, or stable material during its deformation in the elastoplastic region.

The structural model of a viscoelastic material has a number of advantages in describing both the rheology of a material and strain curves of it. In this model, a material is described as a structure consisting of several elements with relatively simple rheological properties. Reproduction of a complex behavior of a material under alternating non-isothermal loading is provided through the interaction of these simple elements. A technique developed in this work for modeling a viscoelastic material is intended for strength calculations of structures made of materials operating under conditions of a long-term repetitive thermomechanical impact using the finite element method. The application of the developed procedure to a polymeric material, polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), is considered. The results of testing this material under uniaxial compression at a constant temperature are presented. The methodology and results of identification of the developed structural model using a specialized software code are described. Formulas are obtained for the approximation of the deformation characteristics of the material at a constant strain rate and for the time dependence of the deformation of the material during its holding at a constant stress level. Approximation is an important stage in the validation of the material model, which facilitates the systematization of the initial experimental data and their further mathematical processing. The best approximation of the deformation characteristics of a viscoelastic material is provided by a hyperbolic tangent function, whereas a logarithmic function provides the best results for the deformation upon holding. Further construction of the structural model was performed by selecting sequential parameters of bilinear rheological functions of the separate elements of the model and by iterative refinement of these parameters.

Making the right decisions based on the results of qualitative analysis necessitates confirmation of the reliability (uncertainty) of the methods which can be provided by the validation procedure. However, the issues related to the validation of qualitative forensic methods are debatable in the absence general regulatory requirements for qualitative analysis methods. We consider a validation procedure of the qualitative forensic technique called microscopic examination of textile fibers, which consists in determining a complex of characteristic external features of natural and chemical textile fibers (color, color features, morphological features) using a microscope, as well as thickness and presence/absence of a matting agent for chemical fibers. These generic characteristics are used to differentiate the fibers under study in the forensic examination of fibrous materials. The reliability of the methodology and the competence of the performers were selected as validation parameters. The parameters were determined numerically by the likelihood ratio and by the values of the rate of false and true results in the total number of tests. Ten samples of natural and chemical textile fibers from the comparative collection of the Laboratory of Forensic Examination of Fibrous Materials of the RFCSE were used for validation. Three experts participating in the experiment independently identified the presence/absence of ten external signs in each of ten samples in the period of a week. Each expert tested a set of one hundred different external features, 39 of which were present in the samples and 61 were absent. When comparing the test results obtained by the expert with the corresponding regulated (known) external features, a conclusion was made about the level of true or false result for each sample. A low (1.7%) level of false results was revealed in relation to the total number of tests, and a low (2.6%) level of false results for each of the experts indicated the reliability of the technique and competence of the experts. The calculation of the likelihood ratio (<i>LR</i>) showed that the probability of true results in the assessment of a set of features is about 60 times (significantly more than one) higher than the probability of false results, which also indicates the reliability of the technique.
