The mechanical strength and cyclic fatigue behavior of PIC700 commercial eco-piezoceramic disks are investigated under biaxial loading on unpoled and poled samples. The bending strength of unpoled samples was higher than those of poled ones. Fatigue tests were conducted under a load ratio of 10 at a frequency of 20 Hz with a sinusoidal waveform. The curve fitting for the S-N fatigue diagram is used to predict the lifetime of these eco-piezoceramics and describe their fatigue behavior. It was also found that the unpoled samples exhibited higher fatigue resistance than the poled ones. The fatigue limit of maximum load for ten million cycles of unpoled and poled samples was estimated to be 160 and 135 MPa, respectively. The detailed observations of the fatigue fracture surfaces by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) indicated that a wavy surface with a mixture of transgranular and intergranular fractures occurred preferentially in the case of the poled material. On the other hand, transgranular fractures seem to be predominant in the unpoled samples. It appears that the poling process causes the change in failure characteristics due to domain orientation that leaves an anisotropic stress field in the material. The poled ceramics possess a local stress concentration created by the orientation under the electric poling field of the 90° ferroelectric–ferroelastic domains. Under this local stress concentration, a microstructural degeneration is induced by domain switching under the cyclic load that accelerates crack growth, thereby reducing fatigue lifetime.

The present work deals with determination of the cause of crack occurring in a part of car body manufactured from deep-drawing sheet. UHR-SEM, EDS, EBSD and measurement of microhardness were used for evaluation of the structure, local deformation and crack formation mechanism. A material analysis discovered foreign particles in the material. These particles were identified as MgAl2O4 with BCC lattice. The occurrence of these hard particles led to local stress concentration, decrease in mechanical strength and sheet breach due to tensile stress during deformation.

This paper reports an experimental study on the use of carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets to strengthen non-load-carrying cruciform welded joints subjected to fatigue loading. Failure modes and corresponding fatigue lives were recorded during tests. Scatter of test results was observed. Thereafter, a series of numerical analyses were performed to study the effects of weld toe radius, the number of CFRP layers and Young's modulus of reinforced materials on local stress concentration at a weld toe. It was found that fatigue life of such welded connections can be enhanced because of the reduction of stress concentration caused by CFRP strengthening. Parametric study indicates that the weld toe radius and the amount of CFRP are the key parameters influencing the stress concentration factors and stress ranges of the joint. Enhancement of modulus for adhesive and CFRP sheets can also be beneficial to the fatigue performance to some extent.

According to the conventional fracturing could easily lead to the local stress concentration of coal, the effect of pressure relief and permeability improvement is not ideal. The mechanism of directional hydraulic fracturing is analyzed and the parameters such as the layout of directional hole, the fracturing hole sealing, the minimum cracking pressure are discussed, then the field application tests are carried out. The results show that the directional hydraulic fracturing effect is better than that of ordinary fracturing hole and the maximum concentration and the average drainage scalar is respectively 3.75 times and 4 times of the ordinary hole pumping gas fracturing effects. The effect of permeability improvement is remarkable.

Abstract Indonesia is a main country supplying coal in the Asia-Pacific region, it is important to ensure a stable coal supply to Japan. Because the topography of the seabed near East Kalimantan Island, Indonesia’s main coal production area, is shallow, it is difficult for bulk carriers to reach the coast. Therefore, Large-Scale Floating Coal Transshipment Station (LFTS) was proposed, which will be used as a relay base between coal-barging barges from land and bulk carriers offshore. Installing an LFTS offshore from East Kalimantan is expected to improve coal transport productivity. LFTS can store coal equivalent to five times the capacity of one bulk carrier (total 500,000T), and can accommodate 2 bulk carriers at the same time during offloading. The scale of LFTS is 590m × 160m. The LFTS has a flat spread and the elastic behavior becomes the dominant Structure. The upper part of the LFTS is different rigidity partly because the partition wall to be loaded by dividing the coal into each quality is provided. Loaded coal not only changes the draft of the LFTS but also greatly deforms the LFTS and is expected to cause local stress concentration on the structural members. Therefore, this paper investigates wave response characteristics and stress characteristics with the coal loading of the LFTS, and then evaluation of structural strength by limit state design method. In this study, linear potential theory and the finite element method (FEM) were used to analyze the static hydroelastic motion under various coal loading condition and wave response of LFTS. And, to grasp the local stress concentration occurring inside the LFTS by using the response results, a detailed model modeling a complicated internal structure was prepared. Zooming analysis which is a method of giving the deformation result by the whole model of LFTS as forced displacement to the local detailed model was carried out. As a result, depending on the coal loading condition and wave conditions, it became clear that LFTS will be in a tough situation.

Forging Die

For forging die fracture behaviors during the actual forging process of compactor grinding tooth, the fully forging process has been simulated based on FEM. Die stress changes and distributions were analyzed in details through two related simulation processes. The maximum load acting on the die which type is ideal rigid body predicted firstly. Then, the die stress can be obtained by the elastic-plastic analysis when the die bears maximum load. Results show that Local stress concentration beyond ultimate strength of material causes the fracture of lower die.
