Book Overall Mechanical Response of Soft Composite Materials with Particulate Microstructure at Finite Strains

Download or read book Overall Mechanical Response of Soft Composite Materials with Particulate Microstructure at Finite Strains written by Reza Avazmohammadi and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many soft, composite materials manufactured or found in nature consist of a homogeneous matrix phase and a random distribution of micron-sized particles in the matrix. Examples among engineering materials include reinforced elastomers, microgel suspensions and polymer-matrix composites, whereas biological tissues and fluids, such as intervertebral disc and blood, provide examples of natural materials. In this thesis, we present homogenization-based models for the overall constitutive behavior of such composite materials when subjected to mechanical loadings. These models account for the constitutive nonlinearities associated with the local behavior of the matrix and particle phases, as well as for the nonlinearities associated with possible evolution of the microstructure. In this thesis, we present models for three different classes of particulate composite materials. In the first part of this thesis, we propose a new model for the overall constitutive behavior of particle-reinforced elastomers when subjected to three-dimensional, large deformations. A key advantage of this model is that it incorporates the change in the orientation of rigid particles as the deformation proceeds, and therefore also incorporates the major influence of such changes on the development of material instabilities in the composites. We consider the application of this model to composites consisting of incompressible elastomers reinforced by aligned, spheroidal particles, undergoing non-aligned loadings. In the second part of this work, we present a homogenization-based model for the rheological behavior of suspensions of soft viscoelastic particles in Newtonian fluids as well as in yield stress fluids under uniform, Stokes flow conditions. We investigate the effects of the shape dynamics and constitutive properties of the fluid and particle phases on the macroscopic rheological behavior of the suspensions. In the last part of this work, we present a model to estimate the effective behavior of particulate composites consisting of elasto-viscoplastic matrices and elastic, spheroidal particles, subjected to small strains. Here, we explore the effect of the local properties and loading conditions on the effective behavior and field statistics in these composites for the case of elastic-ideally plastic matrices.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is dedicated to the tube flow of viscoelastic fluids and Newtonian single and multi-phase particle-laden fluids. This succinct volume collects the most recent analytical developments and experimental findings, in particular in predicting the secondary field, highlighting the historical developments which led to the progress made. This book brings a fresh and unique perspective and covers and interprets efforts to model laminar flow of viscoelastic fluids in tubes and laminar and turbulent flow of single and multi-phase particle-laden flow of linear fluids in the light of the latest findings.

Book Flow Induced Alignment in Composite Materials

Download or read book Flow Induced Alignment in Composite Materials written by T. D. Papathanasiou and published by Woodhead Publishing. This book was released on 1997-10-21 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of aligning short fibers in a fiber-reinforced material is to improve the mechanical properties of the resulting composite. Aligning the fibers, generally in a preferred direction, allows them to contribute as much as possible to reinforcing the material. In some cases, the mechanical properties of these aligned, short-fiber composites can approach those of continuous-fiber composites, with the advantages of lower production costs and greater ease of production. Since its publication, this book has been consistently recognized as one of the most important contributions to this field.

Book Downstream Industrial Biotechnology

Download or read book Downstream Industrial Biotechnology written by Michael C. Flickinger and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-03-12 with total page 884 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DOWNSTREAM INDUSTRIAL BIOTECHNOLOGY An affordable, easily accessible desk reference on biomanufacturing, focused on downstream recovery and purification Advances in the fundamental knowledge surrounding biotechnology, novel materials, and advanced engineering approaches continue to be translated into bioprocesses that bring new products to market at a significantly faster pace than most other industries. Industrial scale biotechnology and new manufacturing methods are revolutionizing medicine, environmental monitoring and remediation, consumer products, food production, agriculture, and forestry, and continue to be a major area of research. The downstream stage in industrial biotechnology refers to recovery, isolation, and purification of the microbial products from cell debris, processing medium and contaminating biomolecules from the upstream process into a finished product such as biopharmaceuticals and vaccines. Downstream process design has the greatest impact on overall biomanufacturing cost because not only does the biochemistry of different products ( e.g., peptides, proteins, hormones, antibiotics, and complex antigens) dictate different methods for the isolation and purification of these products, but contaminating byproducts can also reduce overall process yield, and may have serious consequences on clinical safety and efficacy. Therefore downstream separation scientists and engineers are continually seeking to eliminate, or combine, unit operations to minimize the number of process steps in order to maximize product recovery at a specified concentration and purity. Based on Wiley’s Encyclopedia of Industrial Biotechnology: Bioprocess, Bioseparation, and Cell Technology, this volume features fifty articles that provide information on down- stream recovery of cells and protein capture; process development and facility design; equipment; PAT in downstream processes; downstream cGMP operations; and regulatory compliance. It covers: Cell wall disruption and lysis Cell recovery by centrifugation and filtration Large-scale protein chromatography Scale down of biopharmaceutical purification operations Lipopolysaccharide removal Porous media in biotechnology Equipment used in industrial protein purification Affinity chromatography Antibody purification, monoclonal and polyclonal Protein aggregation, precipitation and crystallization Freeze-drying of biopharmaceuticals Biopharmaceutical facility design and validation Pharmaceutical bioburden testing Regulatory requirements Ideal for graduate and advanced undergraduate courses on biomanufacturing, biochemical engineering, biopharmaceutical facility design, biochemistry, industrial microbiology, gene expression technology, and cell culture technology, Downstream Industrial Biotechnology is also a highly recommended resource for industry professionals and libraries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geomorphology deals with some of the most striking patterns of nature. From mountain ranges and mid-ocean ridges to river networks and sand dunes, there is a whole family of forms, structures, and shapes that demand rationalization as well as mathematical description. In the various chapters of this volume, many of these patterns are explored and discussed, and attempts are made to both unravel the reasons for their very existence and to describe their dynamics in quantitative terms. Particular focus is placed on lava and mud flows, ice and snow dynamics, river and coastal morphodynamics and landscape formation. Combining a pedagogical approach with up-to-date reviews of forefront research, this volume will serve both postgraduate students and lecturers in search of advanced textbook material, and experienced researchers wishing to get acquainted with the various physical and mathematical approaches in a range of closely related research fields.
