Exposure of buildings to fire is one of the unexpected events during the life of the structure. The heat from the fire can reduce the strength of structural members, and these damaged members need to be strengthened. Repair and strengthening of concrete members by fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites has been one of the most popular methods in recent years and can be used in fire-damaged concrete members. In this paper, in order to provide further data and information about the behavior of post-heated circular concrete columns confined with FRP composites, 30 cylindrical concrete specimens were prepared and subjected under four exposure temperatures of 300, 500, 700, and 900. Then, specimens were repaired by carbon fiber reinforced polymer composites and tested under axial compression. Results indicate that heating causes the color change, cracks, and weight loss of concrete. Also, with the increase of heating temperature, the shape of stress–strain curve of FRP-retrofitted specimens will change. Therefore, the main parts of the stress–strain curve such as ultimate stress and strain and the elastic modulus will change. Thus, a new stress–strain model is proposed for post-heated circular concrete columns confined by FRP composites. Results indicate that the proposed model is in a good agreement with the experimental data.

An analytical model for compressive stress-strain curve of polypropylene fiber reinforced concrete (PPFRC) was proposed. The polypropylene fiber used was 60-mm long twisted fiber with aspect ratio of 120. The fiber was added in three volume fractions 0.2%, 0.4% and 0.6%. Tow concrete mixtures with varying water-cement ratio were used. The accuracy of the proposed model was evaluated by comparing the area under stress-strain curves for experimental and analytical model. The results showed good agreement between the experimental and analytical curves. In addition; empirical equations were proposed to quantify the effect of polypropylene fiber on compressive strength, strain at peak stress, and toughness of concrete in terms of fiber volume fraction.

In this paper, the strain-rate dependent mechanical properties and stress-strain curve behavior of Sn3.8Ag0.7Cu (SAC387) solder is presented for a range of strain-rates at room temperature. The apparent elastic modulus, yield stress properties and stress-strain curve equation of the solder material is needed to facilitate finite element modeling work. Tensile tests on dog-bone shaped bulk solder specimens were conducted using a non-contact video extensometer system. Constant strain-rate uni-axial tensile tests were conducted over the strain-rates of 0.001, 0.01, 0.1 and 1 (s−1) at 25°C. The effects of strain-rate on the stress-strain behavior for lead-free Sn3.8Ag0.7Cu solder are presented. The tensile yield stress results were compared to equivalent yield stress values derived from nano-indentation hardness test results. Constitutive models based on the Ramberg-Osgood model and the Cowper-Symond model were fitted for the tensile test results to describe the elastic-plastic behavior of solder deformation behavior.

Stress-strain curve can accurately reflect the mechanical behavior of materials, and it is very important for structural design and nonlinear numerical analysis. Some cube and prism specimens were made to investigate the physical and mechanical properties of steel fiber reinforced alkali activated slag concrete (AASC); test results show that the strength, Young’s Elastic Modulus, and Poisson’s ratio all increase with the increase of steel fiber content. The steel fiber reinforced AASC shows an excellent postcracking behavior. Damage evolution parameter (D) was used to describe the formation and propagation of cracks, and continuum damage evolution model of steel fiber reinforced AASC was established by Weibull and Cauchy distribution. The establishing model can well describe the geometric characteristics of the key points of the concrete materials stress-strain curve. Finally, the accuracy of the model was verified by comparing the test stress-strain relationship curve of steel fiber reinforced AASC.

Abstract The tensile tests of BCC Fe nanowires were simulated through molecular dynamics methods. The temperature and strain rate effects on the mechanical properties as well as the orientation-dependent plastic deformation mechanism were analyzed. For [001]-oriented BCC Fe nanowires, as the temperature increased, the yield stress and Young's modulus decreased. While the yield stress and Young's modulus increased as the strain rate increased. With the increase of temperature, when the temperature was less than 400 K, the twin propagation stress decreased dramatically, and then tended to reach a saturation value at higher temperatures. Under different temperatures and strain rates, the [001]-oriented Fe nanowires all deformed by twinning. The oscillation stage in the stress-strain curve corresponds to the process from the nucleation of the twin to the reorientation of the nanowire. For [110]-oriented Fe nanowires, the plastic deformation is dominated by dislocation slip. The independent events such as the nucleation, slip, and annihilation of dislocations are the causes of the unsteady fluctuations in the stress-strain curve. The Fe nanowires eventually undergo shear damage along the dominant slip surface.

AbstractPlasticity size effects are well known in a wide variety of situations where either the material microstructure or a strain gradient exist at small length scales. Several theories have been developed to describe changes in the work hardening behaviour under these conditions but none that predict a change in the initial yield stress. Careful studies by Chaudhri et al and Pharr et al have unambiguously demonstrated plasticity size effects in ductile metals. In those experiments indentation stress-strain curves were generated using spherical indenters with radii ranging from a few micrometres to several hundred micrometres and these were compared to data from conventional compression tests. Large radius indenters produced a single indentation stress-strain curve independent of indenter radius with a power law hardening coefficient equivalent to that in the compression tests. However, the indentation stress-strain curves appeared at progressively higher pressures for smaller radius indenters. In this paper we model those experiments using finite element analysis methods. By inputting the uniaxial stress-strain data to the model (effectively, using von Mises criterion) the indentation stress-strain curves for the macro size indenters are reproduced. However, the model shows no length scale dependence for any size of indenter. We show that by off-setting the compression stress-strain curve by increasing the initial yield stress and inputting this data to the model, the indentation behaviour of the smaller radius indenters can be modelled. The increase in yield stress with decreasing indenter radius is demonstrated for Cu, Wand Ir and is shown to be consistent with the initiation of yielding over a finite volume.

This paper presents an experimental study of the mechanical properties of brass at high strain rates. The brass tested is the copperzinc alpha-beta and beta two-phase alloy in the cold-worked state. Experiments were conducted using an extended tension split Hopkinson bar apparatus. It is found that, at lower strain rates, the stress-strain curve is smooth, exhibiting no well-defined yield stress, but at higher strain rates the stress-strain curve not only shows a well-defined yield stress but also displays a very pronounced drop in stress at yield. The flow stress is found to increase with increasing strain rate, but the increase is more significant for the yield stress than for the flow stress, showing that the yield stress is more sensitive to the strain rate than the flow stress away from the yield point. Based on the experimental results, empirical strain-rate-dependent constitutive equations are recommended. The suggested constitutive equations provide a reasonable estimate of the strain-rate-sensitive behaviour of materials.

An analysis of the cutting process is presented which in conjunction with experimental cutting data enables the initial shear yield stress and the mean slope of the corresponding plastic stress-strain curve to be calculated for different rates of strain. It is found that for an increase in the strain rate the initial yield stress increases and the slope of the plastic stress-strain curve decreases.

Yield stress parameter derivation was conducted by stress-strain curve analysis on four types of grout injection leakage repair materials (GILRM); acrylic, epoxy, urethane and SPRG grouts. Comparative stress-strain curve analysis results showed that while the yield stress point was clearly distinguishable, the strain ratio of SPRG reached up to 664% (13 mm) before material cohesive failure. A secondary experimental result comprised of three different common component ratios of SPRG was conducted to derive and propose an averaged yield stress curve graph, and the results of the yield stress point (180% strain ratio) were set as the basis for repeated stress-strain curve analysis of SPRGs of up to 15 mm displacement conditions. Results showed that SPRG yield stress point remained constant despite repeated cohesive failure, and the modulus of toughness was calculated to be on average 53.1, 180.7, and 271.4 N/mm2, respectively, for the SPRG types. The experimental results of this study demonstrated that it is possible to determine the property limits of conventional GILRM (acrylic, epoxy and urethane grout injection materials) based on yield stress. The study concludes with a proposal on potential application of GILRM toughness by finite element analysis method whereby strain of the material can be derived by hydrostatic pressure. Comparative analysis showed that the toughness of SPRG materials tested in this study are all able to withstand hydrostatic pressure range common to underground structures (0.2 N/mm2). It is expected that the evaluation method and model proposed in this study will be beneficial in assessing other GILRM materials based on their toughness values.
