The efficiency of energy dissipation η is taken as a function of temperature and strain rate to obtain a Processing Map. In the Processing Map of steel D2, there are two zones of cracking susceptivity with high dissipation efficiency η of 46 % and 63 % respectively. One zone is in the range of 900 ℃ to 980 ℃ and the strain rate range of 0.01 s -1 to 0.06 s -1 , and the other from 1 140 ℃ to 1 160 ℃ and 8 s -1 to 10 s -1 . The experiment proves that there are microstructural brittle transgranular fractures and macroscopic thermal cracks in the two zones respectively. The map also revealed that deformation in these two zones is of instable flowing , so these two zones should be avoided when choosing hot deformation conditions.展开更多

The results shows that the clasic finite element mathematical models are not suitable to describe the near-tip deformation under the experimental conditions.Hydrogen charging made the crack tip plasticity decreased for steel A537 and the anodic dissolution enhance the near tip deformation of pure copper specimen.展开更多

A number of research efforts have successfully investigated the possibility of replacing the conventional aggregate skeleton with industrial by-products such as slag originating from steel production process. However, little is known on the effect of steel slag on the mixtures performance properties such as resistance to low-temperature cracking and to permanent deformation, stiffness and fatigue. This paper presents a comprehensive investigation on the fundamental performance properties of different types of asphalt mixtures prepared with 100% LD slag aggregate and a conventional asphalt mixture containing natural Gabbro aggregate. Sophisticated testing methods were used to evaluate the key performance parameters for the set of asphalt mixtures investigated. In this study, low temperature cracking was addressed through thermal stress restrained specimen tests. Penetration tests and cyclic compression tests were used to evaluate the response of asphalt binder and asphalt mixture to permanent deformation due repeated loading, respectively. The cyclic indirect tensile test was selected for investigating both stiffness properties and fatigue resistance. For this purpose the complex stiffness modulus was measured to quantify material stiffness under different temperature and loading conditions providing information on the visco-elasto-plastic material behavior. Fatigue tests were used to determine the progressive and localized material damage caused by cyclic loading. The experimental results indicate that asphalt mixtures prepared with LD slag are suitable for asphalt pavement construction and that in most cases they perform better than conventional asphalt mixtures prepared with Gabbro aggregate.展开更多

This study used nanoindentation techniques and the Sakai's series elastic and plastic deformation model to extract the resistance to plastic deformation from the plane strain modulus and the contact hardness for presintered zirconia. The modulus and the resistance to plasticity were used to calculate the relative amount of elasticity and plasticity. The fracture energy and the normalized indentation absorbed energy were used to deconvolute the resistance to machining-induced cracking based on the Sakai-Nowak model. All properties were extracted at a 10 mN peak load and loading rates of 0.1-2 mN/s to determine the loading rate effects on these properties. We found that the resistance to plasticity and the resistance to machining-induced cracking were independent of the loading rate (ANOVA, p 〉 0.05). The elastic and plastic displacements depended on the loading rate through power laws. This loading rate-dependent deformation behaviour was explained by the maximum shear stress generated underneath the indenter and the indentation energy. The plastic deformation components and the indentation absorbed energy at all loading rates were higher than the elastic deformation components and the elastic strain energy, respectively. Finally, we established the linkage among the pore structure, indentation behaviour and machinability of pre-sintered zirconia.展开更多
