Expansive Additive

The creep phenomenon of hardening cement paste mixed with an expansive additive was modeled by considering the creep performance of hydration products of cement and expansive additive. A new composite model that is appropriate for particle conditions is proposed by considering the balance of the hydration products of cement and expansive additive and the stress redistribution phenomenon of hydration products newly generated by the progress of hydration. The creep of mortar and concrete mixed with the expansive additive was evaluated using a composite model of the paste and aggregate. Under the assumption that the modeled creep deformation is proportional to the stress and the gel volume of the hydration products, which allows the law of superposition to be applied, the distribution stress was predicted by applying the step-by-step method at each time increment. By predicting the maximum tensile stress applied to an inner steel ring through a creep analysis based on the measured deformation of the inner steel ring, it is possible to predict the stress progression with age to some degree.

The creep behaviors of TA2 and R60702 at low and intermediate temperature were presented and discussed in this paper. Experimental results indicated that an apparent threshold stress was exhibited in the creep deformation of R60702. Meanwhile, the primary creep phase was found as the main pattern in the room temperature creep behavior of TA2. Compared with the exponential law, the power law has been proved to be a proper constitutive model in the description of primary creep phase. It also showed that θ projection method had its significant advantage in the evaluation of accelerated creep stage. Thus, a composite model which combined power law with θ projection method was applied in the creep curves evaluation at low and intermediate temperature. Based on the multiaxial creep deformation results, the model was modified and discussed. A linear relationship existed between composite model parameters and applied load. Finally, the creep life of TA2 and R60702 could be accurately predicted by the composite model, and it is suitable for the application in low and intermediate temperature creep life analysis.

We examine the hydrogen embrittlement susceptibility of a high-strength AISI 4135 steel by means of a slow strain-rate test (SSRT) using notched round bar specimens. Hydrogen was introduced into the specimens by electrochemical charging and its content was measured by thermal desorption spectrometry (TDS). It was found that the maximum tensile stress decreased in a power law manner with increasing diffusible hydrogen content. Finite element method (FEM) calculations demonstrated that the peak value of the maximum principal stress and the peak value of the locally accumulated hydrogen concentration at the maximum tensile stress were in good agreement with one power law relationship for the specimens with different stress concentration factors.

Abstract In high pressure applications, rectangular blocks of steel are used instead of cylinders as pressure vessels. Bores are drilled in these blocks for fluid flow. Intersecting bores with axes normal to each other and of almost equal diameters, produce stresses which can be many times higher than the internal pressure. Experimental results for the magnitude of maximum tensile stress along the intersection contour were available. A parametric finite element model simulated the experimental set up, followed by correlation between finite element analysis and experimental results. Finally, empirical methods are applied to generate models for the maximum tensile stress σ11 at cross bores of open and close ended blocks. Results from finite element analysis and empirical methods are further matched. Design optimization of cross bores is discussed.

Abstract There is a drive towards a broader range of fuels in industrial gas turbines, with higher levels of sulphur and potentially hydrogen. Due to these harsher environments, there is also a drive for corrosion resistant alloys and coatings. A number of key corrosion resistant superalloys, which are being employed to cope with these evolving conditions, exhibit primary creep. It is therefore imperative that fundamental material models, such as those for creep deformation, are developed to ensure they can accurately predict the material response to evolving operating conditions. The requirements for a creep model are complex. The model must be able to: predict forward creep deformation in regions dominated by primary loads (such as pressure); predict stress relaxation in regions dominated by secondary loads (such as differential thermal expansion); predict the effects of different creep hardening mechanisms. It is also clear that there is an interaction between fatigue and creep. With flexible operation, this interaction can be significant and should be catered for in lifing methods. A model that has the potential to account for the effect of plasticity on creep, and creep on plasticity is therefore desirable. In previous work the authors presented the concept for a backstress model to predict creep strain rates in superalloys. This model was fitted to a limited dataset at a single temperature. The approach was validated using simple creep-dwell tests at the same temperature. This paper expands on the previous work in several ways: 1) The creep model has been fitted over a wide range of temperatures. Including the effect of temperature in complex creep models presents a number of difficulties in model fitting and these are explored. 2) The model was fitted to constant load (forward creep) and constant strain (stress relaxation) tests since any creep model should be able to predict both forms of creep deformation. However, these are often considered separately due to the difficulty of fitting models to two different datasets. 3) The creep deformation model was validated on stress change tests to ensure the creep deformation response can cope with changes in response variables. 4) The approach was validated using creep-fatigue tests to show that the creep deformation model, in addition to our established fatigue models, can predict damage in materials under complex loading.

Tensile Stresses

Uneven support as result of voids beneath concrete slabs can lead to high tensile stresses at the corner of the slab and eventually cause many forms of damage, such as cracking or faulting. Three-dimensional (3D) finite element models of the concrete pavement with void are presented. Mesh convergence analysis was used to determine the element type and mesh size in the model. The accuracy of the model is verified by comparing with the calculation results of the code design standards in China. The reliability of the model is verified by field measurement. The analysis shows that the stresses are more affected at the corner of the slab than at the edge. Impact of void size and void depth at the slab corner on the slab stress are similar, which result in the change of the position of the maximum tensile stress. The maximum tensile stresses do not increase with the increase in the void size for relatively small void size. The maximum tensile stress increases rapidly with the enlargement in the void size when the size is ≥0.4 m. The increments of maximum tensile stress can reach 183.7% when the void size is 1.0 m. The increase in slab thickness can effectively reduce maximum tensile stress. A function is established to calculate the maximum tensile stress of the concrete slab. The function takes into account the void size, the slab thickness and the vehicle load. The reliability of the function was verified by comparing the error between the calculated and simulated results.

Under low stress conditions, when the load exerting on the mined-out areas roof is less than the rock long-term strength, the rock roof will generate some creep deformation. In order to prevent the roof of the mined-out areas suddenly collapse, and to ensure the operator and construction equipment above the mined-out areas safety, it is an important security technical problem to reveal the creep characteristics of the shallow mined-out areas roof. Taking the mined-out areas of Antaibao Surface Mine as background, considering the rheological properties of rock roof, and assuming the roof was a rectangular thick plate, the creep characteristics of mined-out areas roof were analysed by applying the thick plate theory and Kelvin creep model. The regression equation of the roof deflection increment over time was given, and the creep characteristics of the shallow mined-out areas roof were revealed also.

Decay Behavior

Aging is a main factor affecting the durability of asphalt pavement. To study decay behavior of asphalt pavement with aging, aged asphalt was extracted from stratified pavement mixtures for different service-life. The changes of asphalt properties with service time and depth variations of the pavement were discussed. And numerical simulation analysis of pavement structure was conducted with pavement gradient modulus changes caused by aging. The results indicate that asphalt stiffness increases and low-temperature performance decays sharply with the extension of pavement service life, especially in the first several years. The vertical aging differences from top to bottom of pavement were significant, the aging extents decrease continuously from the surface, which cause the gradient changes of pavement modulus. The maximum tensile stress and maximum shear stress all increase with surface modulus increasing, so more serious aging can induce greater gradient modulus, shear stress and tensile stress are larger under the same loads, which have more serious damage to the pavement structure.

Creep Analysis

Concrete creep plays a significant role in the long-term performance of the prestressed concrete structure. However, most of the existing prediction models cannot accurately reflect the in-site concrete creep in a bridge construction environment. To improve the prediction accuracy of creep effects in concrete structures, an innovative creep analysis method is developed in this study. Parameters in the creep model in fib MC 2010 have been calibrated with respect to the long-term loading test results of the prestressed concrete beam. The measured strains of concrete and the midspan deflections of the test beam are compared with the predicted results using the creep model in fib MC 2010. It indicates that the results predicted by the calibrated creep model are in good agreement with the test results. However, the results predicted by the creep model in fib MC 2010 significantly deviate from the test results. This proposed creep analysis method can provide a new thought to improve the predicted effect of the creep effects on creep-sensitive structures.
