The adhesive layer (AL) is modeled by the fractional Zener formulation within a four-parameter fractional thermo-viscoelastic framework, capturing its linear viscoelastic behavior. The FG adherends, consisting of nickel–aluminum oxide (Ni–Al₂O₃), are described using Timoshenko beam theory. Governing differential equations are derived from constitutive, equilibrium, and compatibility conditions at the reference temperature and subsequently extended to arbitrary temperatures through thermoelastic relations for the adherends and the time–temperature superposition principle for the adhesive. These equations are solved in the Laplace domain and inverted to the time domain using the Gaver–Stehfest algorithm. The proposed model provides a time- and temperature-dependent prediction of axial, shear, and peel stresses at any point within the adhesive layer or interfaces. Validation against finite element simulations in ANSYS Workbench demonstrates excellent agreement. Results reveal that temperature variations strongly influence the stress field, while elevated temperatures significantly accelerate the relaxation and stabilization of reduced stress components.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":698,"journal":{"name":"Mechanics of Time-Dependent Materials","volume":"29 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145315757","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}

An important factor in determining the long-term performance of the restored tunnel is the bond interface’s longevity. This study focuses on the bond interface creep behavior in steel plate-reinforced shield tunnels through experimental investigation. Accelerated testing was used to investigate the long-term creep response of the bond contact using the creep equivalence and Boltzmann superposition principles. The key takeaways are as follows: The progression of creep at the bond interface – from the moment of initial loading to when it reaches a stable state – can be broadly broken down into four phases: an instantaneous deformation phase, a stage of decay creep, a period of steady–stable creep, and accelerated creep phase. The bond contact of the shear specimen experiences accelerated creep after 186 hours when it is subjected to 90% of its maximum stress, while the bond interface of the tensile specimen reaches this stage in just 96 hours. As the stress level rises, so does the quantity of creep at the bond interface. As the distance from the loading end increases for the shear specimens, the amount of creep at the bond contact progressively diminishes. A notable 1000-fold increase in creep time is seen when Time-Stress Superposition Principle (TSSP) is used to speed up the characterization of experimental creep curves for the bond contact.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":698,"journal":{"name":"Mechanics of Time-Dependent Materials","volume":"29 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145315756","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}

This physical problem is regulated by a non-linear differential equation obtained by substituting the derived relations in the equilibrium equation.

Based on all the numerical calculations and graphs it is concluded that the circumferential and radial creep stresses are minimum for a hemispherical shell composed of functionally graded transversely isotropic material magnesium in comparison to zinc and beryl, it implies that the shell composed of (FGM) magnesium is experiencing the most stable or optimal state of deformation under the conditions of external pressure.

The environmental objective is to reduce the reliance on Portland cement, which is a major contributor to CO₂ emissions, by incorporating industrial and post-consumer waste materials. In mixtures, CB was introduced at replacement levels of 5, 10, 15, and 20%, while GP was added at levels ranging from 5 to 25% by weight in binary and ternary binders. A comprehensive assessment of the fresh properties, including mini-slump flow, V-funnel flow time, yield stress, and plastic viscosity, was conducted, alongside mechanical and durability tests such as compressive strength, water absorption, acid resistance (5% HCl) and sulfate attack (5% K₂SO₄). Results indicate that, CB decreases the flowability of SCM mixtures, necessitating a higher dosage of superplasticiser. However, when combined with GP, the flowability improves significantly, reducing the demand for superplasticiser. Optimal mechanical performance was observed in mixtures containing 15% CB and 0% GP, as well as 10% CB with 5% GP, which achieved compressive strength improvements of 12% and 13%, respectively, after 90 days. Moreover, the incorporation of higher GP contents (15–25%) enhanced the mortar’s resistance to hydrochloric acid and potassium sulfate solution, highlighting its contribution to long-term durability. These findings support the valorization of calcined clays and glass waste as viable alternatives for developing sustainable and cost-effective SCM, while reducing environmental impact in the construction industry.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":698,"journal":{"name":"Mechanics of Time-Dependent Materials","volume":"29 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145210711","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}

FTIR spectra revealed that all rejuvenators comprise aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, which are similar to the maltenes portion of asphalt. Test results showed that RR are thermally stable than CR and recycled binder blends with RR are softer than CR. Hence, RR have higher cracking resistance and cross-over frequency, but lower Zero Shear Viscosity and rutting resistance. Also, recycled mixes with RR showed higher irrecoverable strains than mixes with CR. On top of performing well in rutting, recycled mixes with CR also showed better or comparable fatigue performance at 40% recycled content.

The model incorporates buoyancy effects, reactive solute dynamics, Hall currents with linear dependence, a uniform transverse magnetic field, porous medium resistance via the Darcy–Brinkman formulation, and radiative heat transport under the gray approximation. Chemical reactions are assumed to be first-order. The governing nonlinear coupled equations are solved in closed form under long-wavelength and low-Reynolds-number approximations, which justify steady, creeping peristaltic motion. Validation against benchmark solutions reported by Ravi Rajesh and Rajasekhara Gowd demonstrates excellent agreement across varying Hall current parameters, confirming the robustness of the analysis. Results indicate that Hall currents enhance velocity by mitigating electromagnetic resistance, whereas higher Hartmann number suppress flow owing to Lorentz forces. An increasing Darcy number reduces drag from the porous matrix, thereby strengthening fluid transport. Both thermal and solutal Grashof numbers intensify buoyancy-driven convection, while Jeffrey fluid elasticity and thermal radiation contribute significantly to pumping efficiency. The Prandtl number regulates heat balance by promoting storage at higher values but supporting convective release near boundaries at lower ranges. Concentration profiles are sensitive to Biot, Soret, and Schmidt numbers as well as chemical reaction strength, underlining boundary-layer-controlled solutal modulation. Trends in pressure rise highlight viscoelastic effects in both forward and retrograde pumping regimes, whereas parametric variations in Nusselt and Sherwood numbers delineate pathways for optimizing thermal–solutal transport.
