This study mainly investigates the prediction models of shear parameters and dynamic creep instability for asphalt mixture under different high temperatures to reveal the instability mechanism of the rutting for asphalt pavement. Cohesive force c and internal friction angle φ in the shear strength parameters for asphalt mixture were obtained by the triaxial compressive strength test. Then, through analyzing the influence of different temperatures on parameters c and φ, the prediction models of shear strength parameters related to temperature were developed. Meanwhile, the corresponding forecast model related to confining pressure and shear strength parameters was obtained by simplifying the calculation method of shear stress level on the failure surface under cyclic loading. Thus, the relationship of shear stress level with temperature was established. Furthermore, the cyclic time FN of dynamic creep instability at 60 °C was obtained by the triaxial dynamic creep test, and the effects of confining pressure and shear stress level were considered. Results showed that FN decreases exponentially with the increase in stress levels under the same confining pressure and increases with the increase in confining pressure. The ratio between shear stress level and corresponding shear strength under the same confining pressure was introduced; thus, the relationship curve of FN with shear stress level can eliminate the effect of different confining pressures. The instability prediction model of FN for asphalt mixture was established using exponential model fitting analysis, and the rationality of the model was verified. Finally, the change rule of the parameters in the instability prediction model was investigated by further changing the temperature, and the instability forecast model in the range of high temperature for the same gradation mixture was established by the interpolation calculation.

In the past, fluid-elastic instability in two-phase flow has been largely investigated with air-water flow. In this work, new experiments are conducted in air-water cross-flow with a fully flexible 5 × 3 normal square array having pitch-to-diameter ratio of 1.4. The tubes have a diameter of 0.016 m and a length of 0.21 m. The vibrations are measured using strain gages installed on piano wires used to suspend the tubes. Experiments are carried out for void fractions from 0%–30%. A comparison of the results of the current tests with previous experiments conducted in air-water cross-flow shows that instability occurs earlier in a fully flexible array as compared to a flexible tube surrounded by rigid tubes in an array. An attempt is made to separate out the effects of structural parameters of three different experimental datasets by replotting the instability criterion by incorporating the instability constant K, in the reduced velocity parameter.

The mechanical stability of a material is a fundamental issue in strength of atomic systems. Although the criterion of the mechanical stability of homogeneous structures such as perfect crystals have been successfully investigated so far, the criterion has not been able to be precisely evaluated in the cases of non-uniform deformations or bodies of inhomogeneous atomic structures. Now we present an instability criterion of an arbitrary atomic structure based on the energy balance of the whole system. This method gives the mathematically rigorous condition for the onset of an unstable deformation in any inhomogeneous atomic system. Furthermore, the method can be applied to any type of potential field, which means that ab initio evaluations of the mechanical instability of inhomogeneous structure under non-uniform deformation will be possible. The validity of the method is clarified by the application to tension of a cracked body. The onsets of unstable deformations and their deformation modes are precisely evaluated by the method.

Abstract The hot deformation behavior of Ti-10V-2Fe-3Al alloy obtained by the powder metallurgy (PM) method was investigated. Material for the research was produced by blending of elemental powders followed by uniaxial hot pressing. Thermomechanical tests of Ti-10V-2Fe-3Al compacts were carried out to determinate the stress-strain relationships at the temperature range of 800 °C to 1000 °C and strain rate between 0.01 and 10 s−1. Based on the dynamic material model (DMM) theory, processing maps at constant strain value were developed using data obtained from hot compression tests. The processing maps were elaborated for the final strain value, which was 0.9, and with flow instability criterion domains applied to it. Two critical regions associated with the flow behavior of the investigated material were revealed. Microstructural changes during hot deformation at various temperatures and strain rates were discussed. The correlation between calculated efficiency of power dissipation, flow instability criterion, and microstructure evolution was determined. The presence of defects was confirmed in regions predicted by the instability maps. The microstructure of the investigated alloy, corresponding to the high efficiency of power dissipation characterized by the occurrence of dynamic recrystallization (DRX) phenomena, was also shown. Additionally, average hardness values in relation to variable process parameters were designated. Based on the conducted studies and analysis, processing windows for Ti-10V-2Fe-3Al alloy compacts were proposed.

A simple instability condition based on the Ziegler's instability criterion is found to be more appropriate in delineating the regimes of flow instabilities in the processing maps of 2124 Al-20 Vol% SiCp metal matrix composite. Applicability of the criterion is demonstrated using the reported microstructural observations in open literature.

A novel viscous fingering instability, involving a less viscous fluid intruding underneath a current of more viscous fluid, was recently observed in the experiments of Kowal & Worster (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 766, 2015, pp. 626–655). We examine the origin of the instability by asking whether the instability is an internal instability, arising from internal dynamics, or a frontal instability, arising from viscous intrusion. We find it is the latter and characterise the instability criterion in terms of viscosity difference or, equivalently, the jump in hydrostatic pressure gradient at the intrusion front. The mechanism of this instability is similar to, but contrasts with, the Saffman–Taylor instability, which occurs as a result of a jump in dynamic pressure gradient across the intrusion front. We focus on the limit in which the two viscous fluids are of equal density, in which a frontal singularity, arising at the intrusion, or lubrication, front, becomes a jump discontinuity, and perform a local analysis in an inner region near the lubrication front, which we match asymptotically to the far field. We also investigate the large-wavenumber stabilisation by transverse shear stresses in two dynamical regimes: a regime in which the wavelength of the perturbations is much smaller than the thickness of both layers of fluid, in which case the flow of the perturbations is resisted dominantly by horizontal shear stresses; and an intermediate regime, in which both vertical and horizontal shear stresses are important.

Discontinuous yield of material as Jerky flow was explained. Then, the strain rate sensitivity (SRS) and instability criterion was given out. Some tests were carried out at constant stress rate, so Jerky flow is manifested as a discontinuity in the stress-strain curves in form of strain bursts. Finally, the dynamic behaviors of specimens during instability of thermal origin were simulated with COLSYS software, whose results are good with test ones.
