Distribution of inherent strains and longitudinal residual stresses in medium thickness plate weldment is calculated and analyzed. A new method of calculating inherent strains and longitudinal residual stresses is proposed.展开更多

The thickness of the ice shell is very important in understanding Europa’s habitability and thermal history,but estimates from different studies are very inconsistent,ranging from 0.2 to 30 km. Here we obtain an estimate of the ice shell thickness from locations of flanking crack and forebulge along Ridge R. Considering the water’s heating process to nearby ice shell in the crack,a flexure model is applied and it suggests the thickness of an ice shell to be 500―1500 m without a convective layer. Compared with previous studies using the same method but ignoring the water’s heating process,the rationality and accuracy have been improved dramatically in our results. We also get some constraints on the strain rate ε and the characteristic temperature Tc,which defines the base of the elastic layer.展开更多
