Shear resolved

Terminology used in discussing the mechanical and thermal properties of laminates is similar to that of metals, except for shear properties. Intralaminar, in-plane, or longitudinal shear reflects pure shear resolved onto a 45° shear plane. A property called interlaminar or horizontal shear is unique to laminates and is the shear between adjacent layers of a laminate. Intralaminar shear is a basic material property, which is strongly influenced by manufacturing techniques. 

The creation terms embody the changes in momentum arising from external forces in accordance with Newton s second law (F = ma). The body forces arise from gravitational, electrostatic, and magnetic fields. The surface forces are the shear and normal forces acting on the fluid diffusion of momentum, as manifested in viscosity, is included in these terms. In practice the vector equation is usually resolved into its Cartesian components and the normal stresses are set equal to the pressures over those surfaces through which fluid is flowing. 

Trajectory models require spatiaUy and temporaUy resolved wind fields, mixing-height fields, deposition parameters, and data on the spatial distribution of emissions. Lagrangian trajectory models assume that vertical wind shear and horizontal diffusion are negligible. Other limitations of trajectory and Eulerian models have been discussed (30).

But we want the tensile yield strength, A tensile stress a creates a shear stress in the material that has a maximum value of t = a/2. (We show this in Chapter 11 where we resolve the tensile stress onto planes within the material.) To calculate cr from t,, we combine the Taylor factor with the resolution factor to give... 

A tensile stress applied to a piece of material will create a shear stress at an angle to the tensile stress. Let us examine the stresses in more detail. Resolving forces in Fig. 11.1 gives the shearing force as...

As loading stresses approach or exceed the shear strength of a solid, inelastic effects are to be expected, and details of the behavior have been readily observed with modern, time-resolving measurement techniques. There are many observations of these behaviors.

For the [l52] orientation, where the resolved shear stress for <110] ordinary slip is 1.3 times that for <101] superlattice slip, <101] superlattice slip is observed up to the peak temperature. Above the peak, <110] ordinary slip occurs mostly on 111. Near the peak temperature, <101] dislocations are mostly in their screw orientations with many... 

Excellent agreement between experiment and onr calculations is obtained when considering the low temperature deformation in the hard orientation. Not only are the Peierls stresses almost exactly as large as the experimental critical resolved shear stresses at low temperatures, but the limiting role of the screw character can also be explained. Furthermore the transition from (111) to (110) slip at higher temperatures can be understood when combining the present results with a simple line tension model. 

Well before the advent of modern analytical instruments, it was demonstrated by chemical techniques that shear-induced polymer degradation occurred by homoly-tic bond scission. The presence of free radicals was detected photometrically after chemical reaction with a strong UV-absorbing radical scavenger like DPPH, or by analysis of the stable products formed from subsequent reactions of the generated radicals. The apparition of time-resolved ESR spectroscopy in the 1950s permitted identification of the structure of the macroradicals and elucidation of the kinetics and mechanisms of its formation and decay [15]. 

The theoretical basis for spatially resolved rheological measurements rests with the traditional theory of viscometric flows [2, 5, 6]. Such flows are kinematically equivalent to unidirectional steady simple shearing flow between two parallel plates. For a general complex liquid, three functions are necessary to describe the properties of the material fully two normal stress functions, Nj and N2 and one shear stress function, a. All three of these depend upon the shear rate. In general, the functional form of this dependency is not known a priori. However, there are many accepted models that can be used to approximate the behavior, one of which is the power-law model described above. 

Second, the resolution achieved in a 2-D experiment, particularly in the carbon domain is nowhere near as good as that in a 1-D spectrum. You might remember that we recommended a typical data matrix size of 2 k (proton) x 256 (carbon). There are two persuasive reasons for limiting the size of the data matrix you acquire - the time taken to acquire it and the shear size of the thing when you have acquired it This data is generally artificially enhanced by linear prediction and zero-filling, but even so, this is at best equivalent to 2 k in the carbon domain. This is in stark contrast to the 32 or even 64 k of data points that a 1-D 13C would typically be acquired into. For this reason, it is quite possible to encounter molecules with carbons that have very close chemical shifts which do not resolve in the 2-D spectra but will resolve in the 1-D spectrum. So the 1-D experiment still has its place. 

The continuous chain model includes a description of the yielding phenomenon that occurs in the tensile curve of polymer fibres between a strain of 0.005 and 0.025 [ 1 ]. Up to the yield point the fibre extension is practically elastic. For larger strains, the extension is composed of an elastic, viscoelastic and plastic contribution. The yield of the tensile curve is explained by a simple yield mechanism based on Schmid s law for shear deformation of the domains. This law states that, for an anisotropic material, plastic deformation starts at a critical value of the resolved shear stress, ry =/g, along a slip plane. It has been... 

In view of the development of the continuous chain model for the tensile deformation of polymer fibres, we consider the assumptions on which the Coleman model is based as too simple. For example, we have shown that the resolved shear stress governs the tensile deformation of the fibre, and that the initial orientation distribution of the chains is the most important structural characteristic determining the tensile extension below the glass transition temperature. These elements have to be incorporated in a new model. 

This additional Eq. (18) was discretized at the same resolution as the flow equations, typical grids comprising 1203 and 1803 nodes. At every time step, the local particle concentration is transported within the resolved flow field. Furthermore, the local flow conditions yield an effective 3-D shear rate that can be used for estimating the local agglomeration rate constant /10. Fig. 10 (from Hollander et al., 2003) presents both instantaneous and time-averaged spatial distributions of /i0 in vessels agitated by two different impellers color versions of these plots can be found in Hollander (2002) and in Hollander et al. (2003).
