Hot deformation behavior of FeCrCuMnNi high entropy alloy

Ali Shabani et al.

Summary: The hot deformation behavior of FeCrCuMnNi high entropy alloy was studied through hot compression tests in the temperature range of 500-970 degrees C and strain rates of 0.1, 0.01, and 0.001 s-1 up to a strain of 0.6. An Arrhenius-type equation was used to evaluate the deformation behavior and propose a constitutive equation. The alloy exhibited typical hot deformation behavior with an activation energy of approximately 250 kJ/mol, mainly governed by Cu lattice diffusion. Discontinuous dynamic recrystallization (dDRX) was the main restoration phenomenon, with grain boundary sliding and dislocation sliding as the main active mechanisms. Processing maps based on energy efficiency (η) and flow instability (ξ) were plotted, revealing an instability region between 750 and 850 degrees C at different strain rates, which might be directly related to the formation of a hard sigma phase within this temperature range.

Effect of Seismic Isolation on the Performance of High-Rise Buildings with Torsional Instability

Fevzi Saritas et al.

Summary: Seismic bearings are used to mitigate the harmful effects of earthquakes. The torsion mode, an important irregularity, increases shear forces on vertical members in high-rise buildings, potentially causing brittle failure of reinforced concrete members. This study evaluated the seismic performance of a high-rise building with torsion mode using push-over analysis and nonlinear time history analyses. Rubber bearings were used for base isolation, effectively shifting the dominant torsion mode to higher modes. The results showed that properly arranging rubber bearings on the ground floor can improve the dynamic behavior and seismic performance of high-rise buildings with torsional instability.

Summary: Several flow features revealed by hot cylinder compression tests were analyzed and compared in terms of formability for different materials. The shapes of cylinder-compressed specimens were analyzed and their relation to formability was investigated.

Thermomechanical in-plane dynamic instability of asymmetric restrained functionally graded graphene reinforced composite arches via machine learning-based models

Zhicheng Yang et al.

Summary: This paper investigates the thermomechanical in-plane dynamic instability of asymmetric restrained functionally graded graphene reinforced composite (FG-GRC) arches with power law distribution of graphene sheets with atom vacancy defects. The temperature-dependent mechanical properties are determined by a genetic programming assisted micromechanical model. The governing equations for the thermomechanical in-plane dynamic instability are derived by Hamilton's principle and solved by differential quadrature method (DQM) in conjunction with Bolotin method. Numerical studies examine the effects of vacancy defect, graded distribution of graphene, temperature variation, load position, and boundary conditions on the free vibration, elastic buckling, and dynamic instability behaviors of the FG-GRC arch. Results show that the FG-GRC arch's structural performance is weakened by graphene defect and temperature rise, and is significantly influenced by both graphene distribution and boundary conditions.

Analysis of the wall thickness distortion in tube hydro-forging

Gang Chen et al.

Summary: Tensile deformation is the most common principle in sheet forming, but a new tube forming process, tube hydro-forging, has been developed based on compression deformation. Apart from the instability problem, a new surface defect, thickness distortion, was discovered. This study analyzes wall thickness distortion from a mechanical and deformation perspective. It is found that a bending moment exists in the low pressure tube hydroforming process, leading to small wrinkles in the straight wall. As compressive deformation increases, these small wrinkles develop into thickness distortion. Wall thickness and compressive strain are identified as major factors affecting this phenomenon. Experimental and simulation techniques verify the findings. This research contributes to the understanding of new surface phenomena in compressive deformation.

Influence of mandrel-cores filling on size effect of cross-section distortion of bimetallic thin-walled composite bending tube

Yingxia Zhu et al.

Summary: This study introduces two new size factors, cross-section hollow coefficient and bending degree, to reveal the size effect of bending forming of bimetallic composite tube. The hollow coefficient and bending degree limit the size description range of commonly used bent tubes to (0, 2.00). The study also reveals the evolution laws of cross-section distortion forms and the influence of mandrel-cores on the size effect. Results show that mandrel-cores filling can expand the forming limit of bent tubes, but may also cause forming defects of wrinkles and ruptures. The identification factor (hollow coefficient multiplied by bending degree) provides a method for determining the cross-section distortion forms of all composite bending tubes.

Axisymmetric necking versus Treloar-Kearsley instability in a hyperelastic sheet under equibiaxial stretching

Mi Wang et al.

Summary: This study investigates the bifurcations and necking phenomena of hyperelastic sheets under equibiaxial stretching conditions. The conditions for axisymmetric necking and the amplitude equation for bifurcated necking solution are derived. The results show that the critical stretch for necking is greater than the TK instability under force control, but is less than the critical stretch for the limiting-point instability.

Hot tensile deformation mechanism and microstructure evolution of Mg-2Nd alloy with heterostructure

Ting Yang et al.

Summary: The deformation mechanism and microstructure evolution of the Mg-2Nd alloy during hot tensile deformation were investigated. It was found that the peak stress decreases and the elongation to fracture increases with increasing deformation temperature. The alloy contains fibrous extrusion zones (FEZs) and non-fibrous extrusion zones (non-FEZs), with the microstructure deformation in the FEZs being more pronounced. In the initial deformation stage, grain deformation occurs primarily in the FEZs, while recrystallization occurs in both FEZs and non-FEZs in the later deformation stage. The dominant deformation mechanism in the FEZs is intragranular slip, supplemented by grain boundary slip (GBS), while the dominant deformation mechanism in the non-FEZs is GBS, with coordinated intragranular slip. The recrystallization mechanism in the FEZs is continuous dynamic recrystallization (CDRX), while it is discontinuous dynamic recrystallization (DDRX) in the non-FEZs. Thus, the dominant hot tensile deformation mechanisms of the alloys alternate between intragranular slip, GBS, and dynamic recrystallization (DRX).

On Wrinkling in Sandwich Panels with an Orthotropic Core

Zbigniew Pozorski et al.

Summary: This paper focuses on the local loss of stability problem in the facing of a sandwich panel, comparing classical solutions for facing instability on homogeneous and isotropic substructures. It discusses the relationships between strain energy components associated with different core deformations and presents a new solution for orthotropic cores consistent with classic solutions for isotropic cores. Numerical examples support the correctness of analytical formulas, and parametric analyses demonstrate the sensitivity of wrinkling stress to changes in core material parameters.

A multi-scale model for global buckling and local wrinkling interaction with application to sandwich beams

Khadija Mhada et al.

Summary: The work introduces a new 2D Reduced model that considers the coupling between local instabilities and global buckling in sandwich structures. By using a multi-scale approach based on Fourier series and slowly varying coefficients, the model transforms a 2D sandwich model into a simplified version which only evaluates the envelope of instability. The proposed model is validated by comparison with the 2D Complete model and the analytical solution, and the non-linear system is solved using the Asymptotic Numerical Method (ANM).
