The coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) is an important property of ultra-low expansion (ULE) glass, and the ultrasonic velocity method has shown excellent performance for the nondestructive measurement of CTE in large ULE glass. In this method, the accurate acquisition of the ultrasonic velocity in ULE glass is necessary. Herein, we present a correlation method to determine the ultrasonic TOF in ULE glass and to further obtain the ultrasonic longitudinal wave velocity (cL) indirectly. The performance of this method was verified by simulations. Considering the dependence of cL on temperature (T), we carried out the derivation of the analytical model between cL and T. Based on reasonable constant assumptions in the physical sense, a cL–T exponential model was produced, and some experimental results support this model. Additional experiments were carried out to validate the accuracy of the cL–T exponential model. The studies we conducted indicate that the cL–T exponential model can reliably predict the ultrasonic velocity in ULE glass at different temperatures, providing a means for the nondestructive CTE measurement of large ULE glass at a specified temperature.

AbstractThe mechanical behavior of non-metalized GaAs wafer material at different temperatures were evaluated. The material properties of GaAs, including the modulus of elasticity, the modulus of rupture, the critical value of stress intensity factor, and the coefficient of thermal expansion, were experimentally determined over various temperature ranges.

The coefficient of thermal expansion analysis suite (CTEAS) has been developed to calculate and visualize thermal expansion properties of crystalline materials in three dimensions. The software can be used to determine the independent terms of the second-rank thermal expansion tensor usinghklvalues, correspondingdhkllistings and lattice constants obtained from powder X-ray diffraction patterns collected at different temperatures. UsingCTEAS, a researcher can also visualize the anisotropy of this essential material property in three dimensions. In-depth understanding of the thermal expansion of crystalline materials can be a useful tool in understanding the dependence of the thermal properties of materials on temperature when correlated with the crystal structure.

This paper investigates material properties of metakaolin/slag-based geopolymer mortar (GPM), relevant for composite action with conventional Portland cement-based concrete (PCC). GPM formulations with different workability (soft and stiff-plastic consistencies) were developed and characterized with regard to their compressive and tensile strength development over time, their shrinkage behaviour during hardening under different ambient conditions, as well as their thermal expansion. With the experimental data obtained, a coefficient of thermal expansion and equations for predicting the strength development were calculated. The GPMs exhibited significant autogenous shrinkage and drying shrinkage. Additionally, high very early shrinkage, tested by a new image correlation method, occurred immediately after setting under dry conditions. Thereby, the observed extent of early shrinkage strongly depended on the specimens’ thicknesses. Furthermore, the basic characteristics of autogenous and drying shrinkage of GPM were enlightened and compared to PCC.

Abstract INTRODUCTION Temperature affects the mechanical behavior of the arteries, a fact that intervenes in their function, both in physiology and in pathological states. The aim of the study is to analyze the mechanical response in the arteries (aorta and carotids) to changes in temperature. MATERIAL AND METHODS The thermo-mechanical behavior of human arteries (26 primitive carotids and 26 thoracic aortas) from cadaveric organ donors has been studied. The tests were carried out in a passive state, without electrical or chemical activation of the vessels. Pressurization tests were carried out at 4 different temperatures (17, 27, 37 and 42ºC) correlating internal pressure-external diameter of the vessels. The thermo-mechanical analysis was evaluated using the pressure-diameter curves at different temperatures, for this the coefficient of thermal expansion (α = (ΔD / D) / ΔT) and the Hayashi stiffness (β), exponential equation (Pressure / Diameter ratio). RESULTS The effect of temperature on arterial behavior is maximum when the curves refer to the initial diameter of the vessel at 0 mmHg for each temperature. At low pressures, the coefficient of dilation is negative, while above a certain threshold pressure (different for each type of artery), the coefficient of dilation becomes positive. CONCLUSIONS The stiffness of the vessels is manifested in the slope of the pressure-diameter curves and decreases with increasing temperature. The coefficient of thermal expansion is a function of the internal pressure to which the arteries are subjected.
