Based on this definition, a good approach was proposed to extract the plastic properties or constitutive equations of metals from nanoindentation test combining finite element simulation. Firstly, without consideration of strain hardening, the representative stress was determined by varying assumed representative stress over a wide range until a good agreement was reached between the computed and experimental loading curves. Similarly, the corresponding representative strain was determined with different hypothetical values of strain hardening exponent in the range of 0-0.6. Through modulating assumed strain hardening exponent values to make the computed unloading curve coincide with that of the experiment, the real strain hardening exponent was acquired. Once the strain hardening exponent was determined, the initial yield stress ay of metals could be obtained by the power law constitution. The validity of the proposed methodology was verified by three real metals： AISI 304 steel, Fe andA1 alloy.展开更多

Closed cell aluminium fly ash foam developed through liquid metallurgy route was investigated for its stress--strain behaviour at different strain rates ranging from 700 s^-1 to 1950 s^-1. The numerical model of split Hopkinson pressure bar （SHPB） was simulated using commercially available finite element code Abaqus/Explicit. Validation of numerical simulation was carried out using available experimental and numerical results. Full scale stress--strain curves wez＇e developed for various strain rates to study the effect of strain rate on compressive strength and energy absorption. The results showed that the closed cell aluminium fly ash foam is sensitive to strain rate.展开更多

Owing to the pozzolanic reaction between calcium hydroxide and fly ash, compared with Portland cement, the hydration of concrete containing fly ash is much more complex. In this paper, by considering the production of calcium hydroxide in cement hydration and its consumption in the pozzolanic reaction, a numerical model is proposed to simulate the hydration of concrete containing fly ash. Similar to the hydration reaction of cement, fly ash activity is divided into three processes: an initial dormant period, a phase-boundary reaction process and a diffusion process. The mutual interactions between the cement hydration and fly ash reaction are considered through the available calcium hydroxide amount and available capillary water amount in the system. The properties of hardening fly ash blended concrete, such as the reaction degree of fly ash, chemically bound water, calcium hydroxide, and compressive strength, are determined from the contributions of cement hydration and fly ash pozzolanic reaction. The evaluated results show good accordance with the experimental results.展开更多

文摘Fly ash is an industrial by-product from coal combustion and has been widely used as mineral admixture in normal and high strength concretes. Owing to the pozzolanic reaction between calcium hydroxide and fly ash, compared with Portland cement, the hydration of concrete containing fly ash is much more complex. In this paper, by considering the production of calcium hydroxide in cement hydration and its consumption in the pozzolanic reaction, a numerical model is proposed to simulate the hydration of concrete containing fly ash. Similar to the hydration reaction of cement, fly ash activity is divided into three processes: an initial dormant period, a phase-boundary reaction process and a diffusion process. The mutual interactions between the cement hydration and fly ash reaction are considered through the available calcium hydroxide amount and available capillary water amount in the system. The properties of hardening fly ash blended concrete, such as the reaction degree of fly ash, chemically bound water, calcium hydroxide, and compressive strength, are determined from the contributions of cement hydration and fly ash pozzolanic reaction. The evaluated results show good accordance with the experimental results.
