应变疲劳可靠性分析的现状及展望

未来是应用塑性变形知识解决结构失效问题的时代，应变疲劳可靠性分析是其中重要问题之一，它在９０年代才引起注意，文献很少。现有方法假设Ｃｏｆｆｉｎ－Ｍａｎｓｏｎ循环应变—寿命（ＣＳＬ）关系中的疲劳强度和塑性系数为独立随机变量，强度和塑性指数为常数，实际上它们都是拟合试验数据的相关随机变量。因此，只适于缺乏试验数据时的近似分析。试验揭示了材料的循环应力—应变（ＣＳＳ）响应存在很大分散性。考虑这一分散性和ＣＳＬ与ＣＳＳ关系中材料常 数的相关性，建立新的方法是未来值得研究的基础课题。建立考虑平均应变／应力影响和多轴方法，使之应用于工程实践，是值得进一步研究的重要课题。

Mechanical behavior of deep sandstone under high stress-seepage coupling

The mechanical behavior evolution characteristics of sandstone are important to the application and practice of rock engineering.Therefore,a new method and concept of deep rock mechanics testing are proposed to reveal the mechanical behavior evolution mechanism of deep roadway surrounding rock after excavation with a depth over 1000 m.High stress-seepage coupling experiments of deep sandstone under various confining pressures are conducted using GCTS.Stress−strain and permeability curves are obtained.The three-stage mechanical behavior of deep sandstone is better characterized.A platform and secondary compaction phenomena are observed.With the confining pressure increasing,the platform length gradually decreases,even disappears.In the stade I,the rigid effect of deep sandstone is remarkable.In the stage II,radial deformation of deep sandstone dominates.The transient strain of confining pressure compliance is defined,which shows three-stage evolution characteristics.In the stage III,the radial deformation is greater than the axial deformation in the pre-peak stage,but the opposite trend is observed in the post-peak stage.It is found that the dynamic permeability can be more accurately characterized by the radial strain.The relations between the permeability and stress−strain curves in various stages are revealed.

An Analytical Model of Electron Mobility for Strained-Si Channel nMOSFETs

An analytical model of electron mobility for strained-silicon channel nMOSFETs is proposed in this paper. The model deals directly with the strain tensor,and thus is independent of the manufacturing process. It is suitable for （100〉/ 〈110） channel nMOSFETs under biaxial or （100〉/〈 110 ） uniaxial stress and can be implemented in conventional device simulation tools .

Primary and recency effects based on loading path in classical plasticity

We have established an elastoplastic analysis model to explore the effect of loading path in an incompressible thin-walled tube under the combined action of axial force and torque based on Mises yield condition and isotropic linear hardening assumption.Further,four stress areas(σx,τx)are divided according to the characteristics of the final stress,and the plastic stress-strain relationship of twelve stress paths in different stress areas is derived.The"primary effect"of the stress path on plastic strain is demonstrated,namely,the plastic strain caused by the pre-loaded stress in path A(tensile stress is initially applied,followed by shear stress)is always greater than that caused by the post-loaded stress in path C(shear stress is initially applied,followed by tensile stress)irrespective of the value of final stress.The"recency effect"of the strain path on the stress is also established,which indicates that the stress caused by the post-loaded strain in path A is always greater than that caused by the pre-loaded strain in path C irrespective of the value of final strain.From the perspective of deformation,the"primary effect"of the stress path on the plastic strain and the"recency effect"of the strain path on the stress are unified.These effects are succinct and universal,and they provide useful insights on the plastic stress-strain relationship under different loading paths.Furthermore,they can serve as a useful reference for optimizing the processing technologies and construction procedures.

A nonlinear explicit dynamic GBT formulation for modeling impact response of thin-walled steel members

A nonlinear explicit dynamic finite element formulation based on the generalized beam theory(GBT)is proposed and developed to simulate the dynamic responses of prismatic thin-walled steel members under transverse impulsive loads.Considering the rate strengthening and thermal softening effects on member impact behavior,a modified Cowper-Symonds model for constructional steels is utilized.The element displacement field is built upon the superposition of GBT cross-section deformation modes,so arbitrary deformations such as cross-section distortions,local buckling and warping shear can all be involved by the proposed model.The amplitude function of each cross-section deformation mode is approximated by the cubic non-uniform B-spline basis functions.The Kirchhoff s thin-plate assumption is utilized in the construction of the bending related displacements.The Green-Lagrange strain tensor and the second Piola-Kirchhoff(PK2)stress tensor are employed to measure deformations and stresses at any material point,where stresses are assumed to be in plane-stress state.In order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed GBT model,three numerical cases involving impulsive loading of the thin-walled parts are given.The GBT results are compared with those of the Ls-Dyna shell finite element.It is shown that the proposed model and the shell finite element analysis has equivalent accuracy in displacement and stress.Moreover,the proposed model is much more computationally efficient and structurally clearer than the shell finite elements.

The Static Stress Triggering Effects Related to the Yutian M_S7.3 Earthquake

This paper calculates the static Coulomb stress changes generated by four earthquakes in the Yutian area during 2008 ~ 2014 separately,then discusses the triggering influence,their accumulated Coulomb stress changes and their influence on nearby faults.The results indicate that the M S5.5 earthquake in 2011 and the M_S7.3 earthquake in 2014 are both in the regions where the Coulomb stress change is positive,the stress changes are 0.004 MPa and 0.021 MPa, respectively, meaning they are triggered by prior earthquakes.The M S6.2 earthquake in 2012 occurred in the place where Coulomb stress change was negative,so it is postponed by the prior earthquakes.The image of Coulomb stress changes of the M S7.3 earthquake in 2014 is in accord with aftershocks( M L≥ 3.0)distribution,but some regions on the fault where the Coulomb stress change is positive have few aftershocks,and strong aftershocks may occur at these districts in future.In addition,this paper calculates the Coulomb stress change on nearby faults,and finds that the Coulomb stress changes of different elements in the GGC fault are very different,and must receive strong triggered-influence,though the result may be influenced by the input finite fault model,so there is still a large earthquake-risk.The GGN,PLC,PLW and LBW faults were also triggered by the four earthquakes occurring between 2008 ~ 2014.Their maximum Coulomb stress changes all exceed 0.002 MPa,so they also have a strong earthquake hazard.

Molecular dynamics study on the nano-void growth and coalescence at grain boundary

Molecular dynamics simulations using embedded atom method (EAM) potential were performed to study nano-void growth and coalescence at grain boundary in face-centered cubic bicrystal copper. Thin-plate specimens subjected to uniaxial tension strain with one-void and two-void at the centered grain boundary were employed to analyze the effect of specimen size, temperature and applied strain rate on the stress-strain response, incipient yield strength and macroscopic effective Young's modulus. The evolutions of dislocations, twin bands and void shapes under different specimen sizes were also presented. The obtained results show that, regardless of the void numbers, the specimen sizes, temperature, the applied strain rate had significant influence on the void shape evolution, stress-strain curve and incipient yield strength, while negligible effects on the macroscopic effective Young's modulus except for the temperature. Moreover, the voids growth rate along the grain boundary was also found to be associated with the specimen sizes.

Modeling of growth stress gradient effect on the oxidation rate at high temperature

A new oxidation kinetics model is established for high-temperature oxidation. We assume that the interface reaction is fast enough and the oxidation rate is controlled by diffusion process at high temperature. By introducing the growth stress gradient we modify the classical oxidation parabolic law. The modified factor of the oxidation rate constant is a function of growth strain, environment oxygen concentration, and temperature. The modeling results show that the stress gradient effect on the oxidation rate cannot be ignored. Growth strain will dominate whether the stress gradient effect promotes or slows down the oxidation process. The stress gradient effect becomes weaker at higher temperature. This effect is amplified at higher concentrations of environmental oxygen. Applied mechanical loads do not affect the oxidation rate. This model is available for high temperature oxidation of metals and alloys.

Transient near tip fields in crack dynamics

Transient effects of stress-strain fields in the vicinity of a stationary crack tip under high rate loads are discussed.Exact analytical solutions to near tip stresses are compared to fields prescribed by leading terms(one or several) of Williams asymptotic expansion.Influence of load application mode,time(or,which is the same,distance from a crack tip) and Poisson's ratio on this discrepancy is extensively examined.Some effects connected with crack tip propagation speed are also discussed.Significant inconsistencies between real(or received in numerical solutions of state equations-e.g.finite element computations) crack tip fields and stress intensity factor(SIF) singular field observed by numerous researchers are explained.The scope of problems where SIF field can be used for correct prediction of dynamic stress-strain fields in the crack tip region is established.Possibility to correctly approximate fields that are not SIF dominated,accounting additional terms of Williams expansion,is studied.
