A universal fracture criterion for high-strength materials

ABSTRACT: Recently developed advanced high-strength materials like metallic glasses, nanocrystalline metallic materials, and advanced ceramics usually fracture in a catastrophic brittle manner, which makes it quite essential to find a reasonable fracture criterion to predict their brittle failure behaviors. Based on the analysis of substantial experimental observations of fracture behaviors of metallic glasses and other high-strength materials, here we developed a new fracture criterion and proved it effective in predicting the critical fracture conditions under complex stress states. The new criterion is not only a unified one which unifies the three classical failure criteria, i.e., the maximum normal stress criterion, the Tresca criterion and the Mohr-Coulomb criterion, but also a universal criterion which has the ability to describe the fracture mechanisms of a variety of different high-strength materials under various external loading conditions.

Research on residual strength characteristics of high water materials based on improved H-B criterion.

Project description:To develop a new gangue polymer filling material with low compressive ratio, this paper intends to add high water cementing material to the gangue for backfilling. Uniaxial and tri-axial bearing experiments were conducted to study its bearing characteristics and residual strength. Based on Hock-Brown model theory, it is proposed that friction angle φr can be introduced to substitute model parameter mi, and the degree of cohesion loss can characterize the value of s. So the improved H-B model is established to characterize the residual strength of materials with ductile failure characteristics. The results show that the compressive strength of high water filling material increases linearly corresponding to the rise of confining pressure, and its strength characteristics conform to Mohr-Coulomb strength criterion. The ductile failure characteristics of the sample endow it with high residual strength, which in turn qualifies it for underground filling. After the introduction of cohesion and friction angle, the improved H-B criterion can fit the residual strength curve of the high water filling material more competently. The fitting coefficient of the samples with three water contents is 1.00, 0.99, and 1.00, respectively. The improved H-B model of residual strength demonstrates the change rule of residual strength of the samples corresponding to the change of confining pressure; under tri-axial loading, the angle between fracture surface and axial direction becomes larger as the confining pressure rises; and the failure mode of the material transforms from splitting failure to shear failure.

Allotropy in ultra high strength materials.

Project description:Allotropic phase transformations may be driven by the application of stresses in many materials; this has been especially well-documented for pressure driven transformations. Recent advances in strengthening materials allow for the application of very large shear stresses as well - opening up vast new regions of stress space. This means that the stress space is six-dimensional (rather than one for pressure) and that phase transformations depend upon crystal/grain orientation. We propose a novel approach for predicting the role of the entire stress tensor on phase transformations in grains of all orientations in any material. This multiscale approach is density functional theory based and guided by nonlinear elasticity. We focus on stress tensor dependent allotropic phase transformations in iron at high pressure and ultra-fine grained nickel and titanium. The results are quantitatively consistent with a range of experimental observations in these disparate systems. This approach enables the balanced design of high strength-high ductility materials.

Expanding Puck and Schurmann Inter Fiber Fracture Criterion for Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastic 3D-Printed Composite Materials.

Project description:The present work expands the application of Puck and Schürmann Inter-Fiber Fracture criterion to fiber reinforced thermoplastic 3D-printed composite materials. The effect of the ratio between the transverse compressive strength and the in-plane shear strength is discussed and a new transition point between the fracture conditions under compressive loading is proposed. The recommended values of the inclination parameters, as well as their effects on the proposed method, are also discussed. Failure envelopes are presented for different 3D-printed materials and also for traditional composite materials. The failure envelopes obtained here are compared to those provided by the original Puck and Schürmann criterion and to those provided by Gu and Chen. The differences between them are analyzed with the support of geometrical techniques and also statistical tools. It is demonstrated that the Expanded Puck and Schürmann is capable of providing more suitable failure envelopes for fiber reinforced thermoplastic 3D-printed composite materials in addition to traditional semi-brittle, brittle and intrinsically brittle composite materials.

UV-Cured Transparent Flexible Silicone Materials with High Tensile Strength.

Project description:Transparent flexible silicone materials are useful in electronics, sensors, coatings, and so forth. However, to the best of our knowledge, the tensile strength of unreinforced silicone rubber is lower than 0.4 MPa, and the highest tensile strength of highly transparent silicone-modified materials is no more than 1.5 MPa. The poor mechanical property limits their further application in electronic devices. Here, a kind of UV-cured transparent flexible silicone materials with tensile strength as high as 2.2 MPa were prepared by a UV-initiated thiol-ene reaction of a sulfur-containing hyperbranched polycarbosilane and a thiol silicone resin. Interestingly, their tensile strength can increase from 2.2 to 5.6 and 5.7 MPa after being immersed in an aqueous solution of 10 wt % hydrochloric acid and 10 wt % NaCl for 7 days, respectively. It is argued that the increase of the tensile strength of cured films may be attributed to the -SiOCH3 of the residual 3-trimethoxysilylpropanethiol in the sulfur-containing hyperbranched polycarbosilane. The performances of the cured materials were investigated in detail. These silicone materials exhibit transparency higher than 95% (wavenumber in the range of 400-800 nm), and the initial thermal decomposition temperatures of the cured materials are about 340 °C. These materials also show good anticorrosion property, and the mass loss of the materials immersed in the aqueous solution mediums is no more than 0.39 wt % even for 15 days.

Fracture Resistance Biomechanisms of Walnut Shell with High-Strength and Toughening.

Project description:Walnut shell is lightweight material with high-strength and toughening characteristics, but it is different from other nut shells' microstructure with two or three short sclerotic cell layers and long bundle fibers. It is essential to explore the fracture resistance biomechanism of lightweight walnut shell and how to prevent damage of bionic structure. In this study, it is found that the asymmetric mass center and geometric center dissipated impact energy to the whole shell without loading concentration in the loading area. Diaphragma juglandis is a special structure improved walnut shell's toughening. The S-shape gradient porosity/elastic modulus distribution combined with pits on single auxetic sclerotic cells requires higher energy to crack expansion, then decreases its fracture behavior. These fantastic findings inspire to design fracture resistance devices including helmets, armor, automobile anti-collision beams, and re-entry capsule in spacecraft.

High strength metallic wood from nanostructured nickel inverse opal materials.

Project description:This paper describes a nickel-based cellular material, which has the strength of titanium and the density of water. The material's strength arises from size-dependent strengthening of load-bearing nickel struts whose diameter is as small as 17?nm and whose 8?GPa yield strength exceeds that of bulk nickel by up to 4X. The mechanical properties of this material can be controlled by varying the nanometer-scale geometry, with strength varying over the range 90-880?MPa, modulus varying over the range 14-116?GPa, and density varying over the range 880-14500?kg/m3. We refer to this material as a "metallic wood," because it has the high mechanical strength and chemical stability of metal, as well as a density close to that of natural materials such as wood.

The strength of chemical linkage as a criterion for pruning metabolic graphs.

Project description:MotivationA metabolic graph represents the connectivity patterns of a metabolic system, and provides a powerful framework within which the organization of metabolic reactions can be analyzed and elucidated. A common practice is to prune (i.e. remove nodes and edges) the metabolic graph prior to any analysis in order to eliminate confounding signals from the representation. Currently, this pruning process is carried out in an ad hoc fashion, resulting in discrepancies and ambiguities across studies.ResultsWe propose a biochemically informative criterion, the strength of chemical linkage (SCL), for a systematic pruning of metabolic graphs. By analyzing the metabolic graph of Escherichia coli, we show that thresholding SCL is powerful in selecting the conventional pathways' connectivity out of the raw network connectivity when the network is restricted to the reactions collected from these pathways. Further, we argue that the root of ambiguity in pruning metabolic graphs is in the continuity of the amount of chemical content that can be conserved in reaction transformation patterns. Finally, we demonstrate how biochemical pathways can be inferred efficiently if the search procedure is guided by SCL.

Chipping fracture resistance of denture tooth materials.

Project description:ObjectiveThe applicability of the edge chipping method to denture tooth materials was assessed. These are softer materials than those usually tested by edge chipping. The edge chipping fracture resistances of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) based and two filled resin composite denture tooth materials were compared.MethodsAn edge chipping machine was used to chip rectangular blocks and flattened anterior denture teeth. Force versus edge distance data were collected over a broad range of forces and distances. Between 20 and 65 chips were made per condition depending upon the material, the scatter, and the indenter type. Different indenter types were used including Rockwell C, sharp conical 120(o), Knoop, and Vickers. The edge toughness, Te, was evaluated for different indenter types.ResultsThe edge chipping data collected on the blocks matched the data collected from flattened teeth. High scatter, particularly at large distances and loads, meant that many tests (up to 64) were necessary to compare the denture tooth materials and to ascertain the appropriate data trends. A linear force-distance trend analysis was adequate for comparing these materials. A power law trend might be more appropriate, but the large scatter obscured the definitive determination of the precise trend. Different indenters produce different linear trends, with the ranking of: sharp conical 120(o), Rockwell C, and Knoop, from lowest to highest edge toughness. Vickers indenter data were extremely scattered and a sensible trend could not be obtained. Edge toughness was inversely correlated to hardness.SignificanceEdge chipping data collected either from simple laboratory scale test blocks or from actual denture teeth may be used to evaluate denture materials. The edge chipping method's applicability has been extended to another class of restorative materials.

Synthesis of polar polynorbornenes with high dielectric relaxation strength as candidate materials for dielectric applications.

Project description:Materials with high dielectric permittivity and dielectric relaxation strength are sought for thermal and pressure sensors and electrical energy generators. However, most polymers have either too low dielectric permittivity or are so polar that their glass transition temperature (T g) is too high and thus decomposition and side reactions occur before an electric field can polarize the polar groups. Here, we use the power and versatility of ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) to synthesize polar polymers with high dielectric relaxation strength and T g significantly below the decomposition temperature. We first synthesized six polar norbornene monomers by conventional esterification, which were then polymerized by ROMP using Grubbs first- and third-generation catalysts. The structure of the polynorbornenes obtained were verified by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, molecular weights determined by gel permeation chromatography (GPC), and thermal properties evaluated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Additionally, their dielectric permittivity, conductivity, and dielectric losses were measured at different temperatures and frequencies ranging between 0.1 and 106 Hz.
