AbstractThe pure cross-anisotropy is understood as a special scaling of strain (or stress). The scaled tensor is used as an argument in the elastic stiffness (or compliance). Such anisotropy can be overlaid on the top of any elastic stiffness, in particular on one obtained from an elastic potential with its own stress-induced anisotropy. This superposition does not violate the Second Law. The method can be also applied to other functions like plastic potentials or yield surfaces, wherever some cross-anisotropy is desired. The pure cross-anisotropy is described by the sedimentation vector and at most two constants. Scaling with more than two purely anisotropic constants is shown impossible. The formulation was compared with experiments and alternative approaches. Static and dynamic calibration of the pure anisotropy is also discussed. Graphic representation of stiffness with the popular response envelopes requires some enhancement for anisotropy. Several examples are presented. All derivations and examples were accomplished using the algebra program Mathematica.

AbstractIn this paper, modelling of the superposition of stress-induced and inherent anisotropy of soil small strain stiffness is presented in the framework of hyperelasticity. A simple hyperelastic model, capable of reproducing variable stress-induced anisotropy of stiffness, is extended by replacement of the stress invariant with mixed stress–microstructure invariant to introduce constant inherent cross-anisotropic component. A convenient feature of the new model is low number of material constants directly related to the parameters commonly used in the literature. The proposed description can be incorporated as a small strain elastic core in the development of some more sophisticated hyperelastic-plastic models of overconsolidated soils. It can also be used as an independent model in analyses involving small strain problems, such as dynamic simulations of the elastic wave propagation. Various options and features of the proposed anisotropic hyperelastic model are investigated. The directional model response is compared with experimental data available in the literature.

ABSTRACT4 Co–base amorphous alloys prepared by rapid quenchling are stress–annealed under different temperature (Ta) balow its crytalline temperature Tcry, after pre–annealing. The effect of magnetic anisotropy with Ta shows the mechanism of stress–induced anisotropy is changed from single ionic modal to pair model as Ta inereases. The effect of Mn content may exaggerate the model changing.

Abstract6 to 80 Å thin Ni(111) films were prepared on smooth and rough W(110) substrates in UHV and characterized by LEED and Auger spectroscopies. The measurements of the magnetic properties were carried out in situ by ferromagnetic resonance at 9 GHz between 300 and 600 K. We found that the effective anisotropies, which consist of surface, crystal, and stress induced anisotropy, increase with decreasing film thickness and temperature. The roughness of the substrate results in the drastic decrease of the effective anisotropy. This is attributed to the change of the surface structure and the stress within the Ni films. Furthermore we found that the Curie temperature Tc and the critical exponent β of Ni films on the smooth and rough substrates show no change.

Thermal stability of induced magnetic anisotropy (IMA) was studied in a course of subsequent annealings without any external effects for already field- or stress-annealed specimens of the nanocrystalline Fe73.5Cu1Nb3Si13.5B9 and amorphous Fe3Co67Cr3Si15B12 alloys. For these alloys the dependence of IMA thermal stability on the magnitude of the IMA constant (Ku) and temperature of stress-annealing was investigated. For the nanocrystalline alloy thermal stability of field- and stress-induced anisotropy with identical Ku was compared. It was shown that nanocrystalline specimens with identical Ku values after field- or stress-annealing have identical thermal stability of IMA. This can point to a similarity of the mechanisms of IMA formation after field- or stress-annealings. Thermal stability of stress-induced anisotropy in the nanocrystalline alloy with Ku value less than 1000 J/m3 and the amorphous alloy with Ku less than 100 J/m3 depends on the value of Ku. For both stress-annealed nanocrystalline and amorphous alloys magnetic anisotropy induced at higher temperatures is more stable because more long-range and energy-taking processes take place at these temperatures.

Most soil constitutive models were developed based on the traditional triaxial tests with isotropic assumption, in which the load is applied as the major principal stress direction and the other two principal stresses are symmetric. When such isotropic models are applied to practical analysis, stress induced anisotropy under complex stress state and the middle principal stress effects are often neglected, thus there are many disagreements between the calculated results and the infield testing data. To simulate the practical loading process, true triaxial tests were carried out on geomaterial under three-dimensional stress state. It was found that the stress induced anisotropy effects are remarkable and the middle principal stress effects are obvious because of the initial three-dimensional stress state. Such kind of stress-induced anisotropy could have important impact on the numerical analysis results and should be taken into consideration when developing the constitutive model.
