Download or read book Deformation and Fracture Properties of the Soft Magnetic Composite Somaloy 700 3P on Different Length Scales written by Schwark, Tabea Gisela and published by KIT Scientific Publishing. This book was released on 2018-07-09 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soft Magnetic Composites (SMCs) typically consist of large iron particles coated with a fairly thin inorganic layer. The combination of soft particles with a brittle layer causes, however, a rather poor mechanical behaviour of the SMCs. The particle boundaries of the specific SMC Somaloy 700 3P can be classified into four different types according to the complexity of their layers. Tests on both micro- and macroscale showed that the particle-boundary interface is critical in terms of failure.

Download or read book On the Electro Chemo Mechanical Coupling in Solid State Batteries and its Impact on Morphological Interface Stability written by Ganser, Markus and published by KIT Scientific Publishing. This book was released on 2021-03-09 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Solid state batteries with a lithium metal electrode are considered the next generation of high energy battery technology. Unfortunately, lithium metal is prone to harmful protrusion or dendrite growth which causes dangerous cell failure. Within this work the problem of protrusion growth is tackled by deriving a novel electro-chemo-mechanical theory tailored for binary solid state batteries which is then used to discuss the impact of mechanics on interface stability by numerical studies.

Download or read book Fatigue of Micro Molded Materials Aluminum Bronze and Yttria Stabilized Zirconia written by Kennerknecht, Tobias and published by KIT Scientific Publishing. This book was released on 2014-12-04 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Custom built setups were developed to investigate micro samples during quasistatic and cyclic testing in tension, compression and bending. Micro molded CuAl10Ni5Fe4-samples showed similar fatigue behavior compared to macroscopic samples due to both the sample size and microstructure being scaled down with the manufacturing process. Results from cyclic three-point bending tests on micro molded 3Y-TZP suggested that a minimum crack extension is necessary to develop cyclically degradable shielding.

Download or read book Investigations on Joule heating applications by multiphysical continuum simulations in nanoscale systems written by Feuchter, Manuel Klaus Ludwig and published by KIT Scientific Publishing. This book was released on 2014-10-01 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work furthers the overall understanding of a 3w-measurement, by considering previously unexamined macroscopic influence factors within measurement by Finite Element simulations (FES). Moreover, new measuring configurations are developed to determine (an)isotropic thermal conductivities of nanoscale samples. Since no analytic solutions are available for these configurations, a new evaluation methodology is presented to determine emergent thermal conductivities by FES and Neural Networks.

Download or read book A novel micro mechanical model for prediction of multiaxial high cycle fatigue at small scales written by Eslami, Reza and published by KIT Scientific Publishing. This book was released on 2017-05-03 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The grain microstructure and damage mechanisms at the grain level are the key factors that influence fatigue of metals at small scales. This is addressed in this work by establishing a new micro-mechanical model for prediction of multiaxial high cycle fatigue (HCF) at a length scale of 5-100?m. The HCF model considers elasto-plastic behavior of metals at the grain level and microstructural parameters, specifically the grain size and the grain orientation.

Book excerpt: With the advent of high performance computing, the application areas of the phase-field method, traditionally used to numerically model the phase transformation in metals and alloys, have now spanned into geoscience. A systematic investigation of the two distinct scientific problems in consideration suggest a strong influence of interfacial energy on the natural and induced pattern formation in diffusion-controlled regime.

This book was released on 2024-01-09 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this work, the first simulation model of oxygen depolarized cathodes (ODC), which are silver catalyst-based gas diffusion electrodes, is presented that considers the phase equilibrium of the gas-liquid interface and structure-related inhomogeneities in electrolyte distribution. By means of the model it has been identified that mass transport of water and ions in the liquid phase is a crucial factor for electrode performance and how it is influenced by the electrode structure.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates the fatigue mechanisms and crack initiation of Ni, Al and Cu on a small-scale in the Very High Cycle Fatigue regime by means of innovative fatigue experimentation. A novel custom-built resonant fatigue setup showed that the sample resonant frequency changes with increasing cycle number due to fatigue damage. Mechanisms such as slip band formation have been observed. Cyclic hardening, vacancy and oxidation formation may be considered as early fatigue mechanisms.

Download or read book Influence of strain on the functionality of ink jet printed thin films and devices on flexible substrates written by Mishra, Nilesha and published by KIT Scientific Publishing. This book was released on 2019-02-15 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ink-jet printed devices on the flexible substrate are inexpensive and large area compatible as compared to rigid substrates. However, during fabrication and service they are subjected to complex strains, resulting in crack formation or delamination within the layers, affecting the device performance. Therefore, it is necessary to understand their failure mechanisms by correlating their electrical or structural properties with applied strain, supported by detailed microstructural investigations.
