Stress profile

Solution of the flow equations has been based on the application of the implicit 0 time-stepping/continuous penalty scheme (Chapter 4, Section 5) at a separate step from the constitutive equation. The constitutive model used in this example has been the Phan-Thien/Tanner equation for viscoelastic fluids given as Equation (1.27) in Chapter 1. Details of the finite element solution of this equation are published elsewhere and not repeated here (Hou and Nassehi, 2001). The predicted normal stress profiles along the line AB (see Figure 5.12) at five successive time steps are. shown in Figure 5.13. The predicted pattern is expected to be repeated throughout the entire domain. 

Generally the material response stress versus particle velocity curves in Fig. 8.6 are nonlinear and either a graphical or more complicated analytic method is needed to extract a spall strength, Oj, from the velocity or stress profile. When behavior is nominally linear in the region of interest a characteristic impedance (Z for the window and for the sample) specify material... 

Changes in polarization may be caused by either the input stress profile or a relaxation of stress in the piezoelectric material. The mechanical relaxation is obviously inelastic but the present model should serve as an approximation to the inelastic behavior. Internal conduction is not treated in the theory nevertheless, if electrical relaxations in current due to conduction are not large, an approximate solution is obtained. The analysis is particularly useful for determining the signs and magnitudes of the electric fields so that threshold conditions for conduction can be established. 

It has previously been shown that, within the approximation above, an arbitrary stress profile applied to a piezoelectric disk produces a current... 

The polarization moves with the stress profile at a velocity U hence, once the profile is specified at an initial location the distribution of polarization at another location can be determined as... 

The resulting stress-volume relations for the 28.5-at. % Ni alloys are shown in Figure 5.13. The cusp in the fee curve at 430 MPa (4.3 kbar) is the mean value observed for the Hugoniot elastic limit, whereas the dashed line shown for the fee alloy indicates the stress region for which some strain hardening is indicated from the stress profiles. It is readily apparent that below 2.5 GPa (25 kbar) the fee alloy shows a much larger compressibility than the bcc alloy. 

An intrinsic surface is built up between both phases in coexistence at a first-order phase transition. For the hard sphere crystal-melt interface [51] density, pressure and stress profiles were calculated, showing that the transition from crystal to fluid occurs over a narrow range of only two to three crystal layers. Crystal growth rate constants of a Lennard-Jones (100) surface [52] were calculated from the fluctuations of interfaces. There is evidence for bcc ordering at the surface of a critical fee nucleus [53]. 

For best results, the measurements are carried out in the controlled stress mode. The samples are subjected to a preselected defined stress profile, leading to comparable results. 

Figure 3 gives an example of a typical force profile. The force is increased continuously and reaches the point - at the end of the first part of the force profile - where the pectin preparations start to flow. The so-called yield point is reached. The further increase leads to the continuous destruction of the internal structure and the proceeding shear thinning. The applied stress in part 3 of the stress profile destroys the structure of the fruit preparations completely. Now the stress is reduced linearly, see part 4 and 5, down to zero stress. The resulting flow curves 2, 3 and 4 and the enclosed calculated area from the hysteresis loop give important evidence about the time-dependent decrease of viscosity and a relative measure of its thixotropy. 

This may be what happens in polyethylene networks (1 ). A transformation from one morphology to another is therefore not at all required. The observed stress profile may be indicative of nothing more than a normal progression of lamellar growth whereby more and more folds are incorporated by the growing lamellae.

From these equations, the thermal stress profile through the thickness of the multi-layered material with a compositional profile can be calculated. If E and aA T vary continuously with z, o is continuous too. Because, the effective properties change as functions of the position in an FGM material, it is necessary to estimate the local composite properties as functions of...

For both geometries, the velocity profiles are schematically plotted in Figures 13.23 and 13.24 along with the shear stress profiles. With these velocity profiles, we see that large gradients of the velocity will play a significant role in orienting aniostropic particles, as was dis-... 

Determine the pressure distribution in a cylindrical uniaxially pressed powder with a length to diameter ratio of 1.5. The powder being pressed is cohesionless with an angle of repose of 30°. The wall of the hardened steel die is well lubricated with stearic acid, which gives an angle of friction with the wall of 1°. The mold was filled and tapped to a density of 54% of theoretical stress then pressed at 100 MPa. Assume that a parabolic stress profile on the die plunger is applied.

For long die geometries (which imphes the existence of a Poiseuille flow downstream of the contraction), fully developed velocity and stress profiles are imposed at the entry section only the velocity profile is imposed at the final section.
