Book A Model for Deformation of Continuous Fiber Composites Under Isothermal Creep and Thermal Cycling Conditions

Download or read book A Model for Deformation of Continuous Fiber Composites Under Isothermal Creep and Thermal Cycling Conditions written by Myles Esmele and published by . This book was released on 1997-12-01 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A one-dimensional analytical model for axial deformation of continuous fiber reinforced metal-matrix composites under both thermal cycling and isothermal creep, with or without externally applied stresses, has been developed. Fibers in the model are considered to be non-creeping, therm-elastic solids, whereas the matrix is considered to be thermo-elastic-plastic and creeping. The model accounts for the strain history of the composite, and allows for changing matrix creep mechanisms via the use of unified creep laws. The use of unified creep laws allows separation of the overall instantaneous creep strain rate into dislocation creep and diffusional creep components, which can be further separated into power law breakdown, pipe diffusion controlled power law, volume diffusion controlled power law, Coble and Nabarro-Herring creep. Additionally, the model allows for the incorporation of time-dependent interfacial sliding near the extremities of the fiber due to the existence of interfacial shear stresses. Based on a recent study, interfacial creep has been represented as being controlled by diffusional flow with a threshold stress (Bingham flow). The interfacial creep law allows simulation of non-isostrain deformation across the interface, and thus the model is capable of explaining experimental observations of strain incompatibility across the interface near fiber-ends. It is envisioned that such a model will be useful in discerning the predominant matrix creep mechanism at a variety of time periods for a given applied stress and temperature, and thus make it possible for the generation of transient deformation mechanism maps for composites.

Book Creep Behavior of the Interface Region in Continuous Fiber Reinforced Metal Matrix Composites

Download or read book Creep Behavior of the Interface Region in Continuous Fiber Reinforced Metal Matrix Composites written by John V. Funn and published by . This book was released on 1997-09-01 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The accurate incorporation of interface effects on creep in metal matrix composites is contingent on the direct experimental determination of the deformation kinetics. The goal is accomplished by isolating the composite interface and precisely measuring the creep characteristics of the interface, by utilizing a fiber pushout apparatus to apply a constant force on the fiber of a model single fiber composite (SFC), so that the interface can creep under the applied shear stress. Two different model fiber/matrix systems one with no mutual solubility and the other with limited mutual solubility were investigated. In both systems, the interface displayed Bingham flow (diffusional flow with a threshold stress). The Finite Element Method (FEM) was utilized to check the conceptual validity of the test approach for one of the model systems, and to provide insight into the design of the sample and test apparatus. FEM was also utilized to estimate the residual radial stresses present in the model composite system following cooling from an elevated to ambient temperature. Based on the experimental results and the FEM analysis, an analytical model is advanced to incorporate the effect of radial residual stresses on the creep of the fiber/matrix interface. The model yields an explicit constitutive law which describes the stress, temperature, and matrix property dependence of interfacial creep. The model also indicates that the experimentally observed threshold stress is directly attributable to the radial stress acting on the fiber/matrix interface.

Book The Mechanics of Creep Deformation in Polymer Derived Continuous Fiber Reinforced Ceramic Matrix Composites

Download or read book The Mechanics of Creep Deformation in Polymer Derived Continuous Fiber Reinforced Ceramic Matrix Composites written by and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this Cooperative Research and Development Agreement between Lockheed Martin Energy Research Corporation and Dow Corning Corporation was to study the effects of temperature, stress, fiber type and fiber architecture on the time-dependent deformation and stress-rupture behavior of polymer-derived ceramic matrix composites developed by the Dow Corning Corporation. Materials reinforced with CG-Nicalon{trademark}, Hi-Nicalon{trademark} and Sylramic{reg_sign} fibers were evaluated under fast fracture, stress-relaxation, and stress-rupture conditions at temperatures between 700 C and 1400 C in ambient air and for stresses between 50 and 200 MPa. Some of the stress-rupture tests conducted as part of this program are among the longest-duration experiments ever conducted with these materials. The possibility of using accelerated test techniques to evaluate the very-long term stress-rupture/creep behavior of these materials was investigated by means of stress-relaxation experiments. However it was found that because these materials exhibit non-linear stress-strain behavior at stresses larger than the matrix cracking stress and because of environmentally-induced changes in the micro and mesostructure of the material, particularly at elevated temperatures, this approach is impractical. However, the results of stress-relaxation experiments will be useful to predict the behavior of these materials in applications where stresses are thermally-induced and therefore driven by strains (e.g., when components are subjected to thermal gradients). The evolution of the microstructure of the fibers, matrix and fiber-matrix interface was studied as a function of stress and temperature, using analytical electron microscopy. The results from these analyses were essential to understand the relationships between environment, stress, temperature and processing on the microstructure and properties of these materials.

Book Handbook of Contact Mechanics

Download or read book Handbook of Contact Mechanics written by Valentin L. Popov and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-04-26 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book contains a structured collection of the complete solutions of all essential axisymmetric contact problems. Based on a systematic distinction regarding the type of contact, the regime of friction and the contact geometry, a multitude of technically relevant contact problems from mechanical engineering, the automotive industry and medical engineering are discussed. In addition to contact problems between isotropic elastic and viscoelastic media, contact problems between transversal-isotropic elastic materials and functionally graded materials are addressed, too. The optimization of the latter is a focus of current research especially in the fields of actuator technology and biomechanics. The book takes into account adhesive effects which allow access to contact-mechanical questions about micro- and nano-electromechanical systems. Solutions of the contact problems include both the relationships between the macroscopic force, displacement and contact length, as well as the stress and displacement fields at the surface and, if appropriate, within the half-space medium. Solutions are always obtained with the simplest available method - usually with the method of dimensionality reduction (MDR) or approaches which use the solution of the non-adhesive normal contact problem to solve the respective contact problem.
