On the basis of the first principle interatomic potentials, the site preference of various alloying elements in Fe3Al were evaluated for Ti, Si, Ni, Mn, Mo, and Cr, respectively. The calculated results of the substitutional distribution were in good agreement with the experimental results. Moreover, the calculated results showed that H atoms in Fe3Al prefer to occupy the Fe-type octahedral interstice on the surface, which resulted in concentration of H atoms on the surface. Cr addition decreased the absorbability of Fe3Al-based alloys for H atoms and the force to drive H atoms segregating to surface. The concentration of H atoms on the surface can be decreased by Cr addition.

The effect of cobalt on the structural properties of intermetallic Tb3(Fe28-xCox)V1.0with Nd3(Fe,Ti)29structure has been studied by using interatomic pair potentials obtained through the lattice inversion method. Calculated results show that the order of site preference of cobalt is 8j(Fe8), 4e(Fe11) and 2c(Fe1) which is in good agreement with experimental results. And the calculated lattice constants coincide quite well with experimental values. All these prove the effectiveness of interatomic pair potentials obtained through the lattice inversion method in the description of rare-earth materials.

The phase stability and site preference of some ternary elements of ThMn12 type rare-earth intermetallic compounds R ( Co , T )12 and R ( Co , T )12 N x are evaluated based on ab initio converted interatomic potentials. The calculated results show that adding either Mo or Mn makes the crystal cohesive energy decrease markedly. It proved that these elements can stabilize R ( Co , T )12 with the ThMn12 structure. The systemic energy is the lowest when T atoms occupy symmetrically 8i sites. For T = Mo or Mn, the doped nitrogen atom does not affect the order of site preference of these stabilizing elements. Moreover, the nitrogen atom occupies 2b sites. According to the calculated results, it can be seen that lattice parameters and X-ray patterns are in good agreement with experiment. All the above results indicate that the ab initio converted pair potentials are effective for the calculation of these kinds of anisotropy materials and some related nitrides.

This paper studies the effect of contact areas on the transient response of mechanical structures. Precisely, it investigates replacing the ordinary beam of a structure by two beams of half the thickness, which are joined by bolts. The response of these beams is controlled by adjusting the tightening of the connecting bolts and hence changing the magnitude of the induced frictional force between the two beams which affect the beams damping capacity. A cantilever of two beams joined together by bolts has been investigated numerically and experimentally. The numerical analysis was performed using ANSYS-Workbench version 17.2. A good agreement between the numerical and experimental results has been obtained. In general, results showed that the two beams vibrate independently when the bolts were loosed and the structure stiffness is about 20 N/m and the damping ratio is about 0.008. With increasing the bolts tightening, the stiffness and the damping ratio of the structure were also increased till they reach their maximum values when the tightening force equals to 8330 N, where the structure now has stiffness equals to 88 N/m and the damping ratio is about 0.062. Beyond this force value, increasing the bolts tightening has no effect on stiffness of the structure while the damping ratio is decreased until it returned to 0.008 when the bolts tightening becomes immense and the beams behave as one beam of double thickness.

An original poling method using purely optical means and based on a dual-frequency interference process is presented. We show that the coherent superposition of two beams at fundamental and second-harmonic frequencies results in a polar field with an irreducible rotational spectrum containing both a vector and an octupolar component. This enables the method to be applied even to molecules without a permanent dipole such as octupolar molecules. After a theoretical analysis of the process, we describe different experiments aiming at light-induced noncentrosymmetry performed respectively on one-dimensional Disperse Red 1 and octupolar Ethyl Violet molecules. Macroscopic octupolar patterning of the induced order is demonstrated in both transient and permanent regimes. Experimental results show good agreement with theory.

The droplet deformation in dispersing units of high-pressure homogenizers (HPH) is examined experimentally and numerically. Due to the small size of common homogenizer nozzles, the visual analysis of the transient droplet generation is usually not possible. Therefore, a scaled setup was used. The droplet deformation was determined quantitatively by using a shadow imaging technique. It is shown that the influence of transient stresses on the droplets caused by laminar extensional flow upstream the orifice is highly relevant for the droplet breakup behind the nozzle. Classical approaches based on an equilibrium assumption on the other side are not adequate to explain the observed droplet distributions. Based on the experimental results, a relationship from the literature with numerical simulations adopting different models are used to determine the transient droplet deformation during transition through orifices. It is shown that numerical and experimental results are in fairly good agreement at limited settings. It can be concluded that a scaled apparatus is well suited to estimate the transient droplet formation up to the outlet of the orifice.

Simulations of experimental results appearing in Jourdan et al. (2007, “Drag Coefficient of a Sphere in a Non-Stationary Flow: New Results,”Proc. R. Soc. London, Ser. A, 463, pp. 3323–3345) regarding acceleration of a sphere by the postshock flow were conducted in order to find the contribution of the various parameters affecting the sphere drag force. Based on the good agreement found between present simulations and experimental findings, it is concluded that the proposed simulation scheme could safely be used for evaluating the sphere’s motion in the postshock flow.

Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA) and static relaxation tests are carried out to study the viscoelastic deformation of PC/ABS alloy with blending ratio of PC to ABS being 50/50. A modified approach is developed to calculate the relaxation modulus of PC/ABS alloy from the DMA experimental results of storage and loss moduli. Comparison of the results obtained from DMA and static relaxation tests is presented and good agreement is found.

ABSTRACTIn order to take into account the actual morphology of the inhomogeneous media, we have developed, effective medium models based on a 2D and 3D position space renormalization /1,2/. These models predict the dipolar resonance and the percolation transition with critical exponents in good agreement with theoretical values and fairly reproduce most of the experimental results, whatever the concentration is. Further more, this allows a valuable comparison of the predictions of our models when applied on different lattices like real digitized TEM of cermet films or randomly occupied lattices.

Laminated glass has been increasing widely used in high rise buildings as a kind of safety glass in recent years. So we should analyze its material property. In this paper, we use flexural experiments and ANSYS program to analyze the main factors that affect the flexural capacity of the laminated glass. The test results show that the flexural capacity is closely related to film. And the ANSYS program had got good agreement with the experimental results. Comparison of experimental results with calculated ones indicates that the current design code will lead to conservative results and the equivalent thickness of laminated glasses provided in the code should be further discussed.
