The mechanical properties of concrete under cryogenic temperature (-165°C) are affected by the temperature field inside the concrete. This paper presents assumptions by adjusting the formulas of thermal conductivity (λ) and specific heat capacity (C), respectively under low temperature. Through ABAQUS, we simulate the temperature downward-upward processes and compare them with the test results. Finally, the research gets more reasonable formulas of λ and C, respectively under cryogenic temperature.

The study has been performed concerning the influence of temperature field created by heat conduction between sample and the anvils, and the influence of lubrication condition (friction coefficient) on thermal mechanical compression test with numerical simulation, with regard to deformation resistance and distributions of strain and strain rate. The results show that temperature field has an effect on deformation resistance and distributions of strain and strain rate. That will influence on the results from thermal mechanical simulation tests. Further, the results also show that friction coefficient has no influence on deformation resistance, but the friction coefficient will result in uneven distribution of strain and strain rate.

The aim of the presented study is to investigate the thermo-physical behaviour and mechanical properties of mortar pre-coated crumb rubber concrete block. For this purpose, thermal conductivity, emissivity and effusively will be tested in addition to the specific heat capacity. Thereafter, dynamic calculator software will be used to study the behaviour of a wall that constructed using the suggested concrete block and a comparison with a normal concrete wall will be made. Compressive, splitting tensile and flexural strength were tested as well. The results show that concrete blocks which meet the requirement of strength can be produced with about 300 kg/m3 of crumb rubber aggregate.

The effects of La and La+Sc addition on mechanical properties and thermal conductivity of Al-4.8Cu alloy were comprehensively studied. The as-cast samples were characterized by optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and first-principles methods. The results reveal that the grain morphology of Al-4.8Cu alloy changes from dendrite to fine equiaxed grain with La, La+Sc addition. The average grain size of Al-Cu-La (Al-4.8Cu-0.4La) and Al-Cu-La-Sc (Al-4.8Cu-0.4La-0.4Sc) decreased by 37.2% (70.36 μm) and 63.3% (119.64 μm) respectively compared with Al-Cu (Al-4.8Cu). Al-Cu-La has the highest elongation among the three which is 34.4% (2.65%) higher than Al-Cu. Al-Cu-La-Sc has the highest ultimate tensile strength and yield strength which are 55.1% (80.9 MPa) and 65.2% (62.1 MPa) higher than Al-Cu, respectively. The thermal conductivity of Al-Cu-La and Al-Cu-La-Sc is 10.0% (18.797 W·m−1·k−1) and 6.5% (12.178 W·m−1·k−1) higher than Al-Cu alloy respectively. Compared with Al-Cu, Al-Cu-La has less shrinkage and porosity, the presence of Al4La and AlCu3 contribute a lot to the decrease of specific heat capacity and the increase of plasticity and toughness. The porosity of Al-Cu-La-Sc does not significantly decrease compared with Al-Cu-La, the presence of Al3Sc and AlCuSc bring about the increase of specific heat capacity and brittleness.

The paper studies structure and mechanical properties of welded joints of hot-pressed panels and profiles manufactured by JSC Arkonik SMZ from aluminum-magnesium 1565ch alloy at the temperature range of –165 to 150°C. It is established that the nature of changes in the properties of welded joints of pressed panels and profiles of 1565ch alloy made by manual argon-arc welding with non-consumable electrodes of ArDS with filler material SwAMg-61 at various test temperatures is similar to changes of welded joints of rolled sheets. When the test temperature is lowered, low-temperature hardening of the welded joints takes place – at a cryogenic temperature (–165°C), 20–30% of strength is gained comparing to 20°C. The prolonged aging of welded joints at an elevated temperature (150°C) leads to strength decrease by 25–30% compared to that of 20°C. The coefficient of strength of welded joints with reinforced joint is not less than 0.9 of the actual strength of the base metal at all test temperatures.

AbstractFine bulk samples of delta-phase Hf hydride with various hydrogen contents (CH) ranging from 1.62 to 1.72 in the atomic ratio (H/Hf) were prepared, and their thermal and mechanical properties were characterized. In the temperature range from room temperature to around 650 K, the heat capacity and thermal diffusivity of the samples were measured and the thermal conductivity was evacuated. The elastic modulus was calculated from the measured sound velocity. The Vickers hardness was measured at room temperature. Effects of CH and/or temperature on the properties of Hf hydrides were discussed. At room temperature, the thermal conductivity values of the Hf hydrides were 23 Wm−1K−1. The Young's and shear moduli and the Vickers hardness of Hf hydride decreased with increasing CH.

With the premise of investigating mechanical properties, the thermal conductivity of autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) is a key index of self-insulation block walls for building energy conservation. This study focused on the effect of pore structures on the mechanical performance and thermal conductivity of AAC with the comparison of AAC base materials. Different kinds of AAC and their base materials were prepared and experimentally investigated. While maintaining a consistent mix proportion of the AAC base material, the pore structure of AAC was changed by the dosage of aluminum power/paste, foam stabilizer, and varying the stirring time of aluminum paste. The steam curing systems of AAC and the base material were determined based on SEM (Scanning Electronic Microscopy) and XRD (X-Ray Diffraction) tests. With almost the same apparent density, the pore size decreased with the increasing content of foam stabilizer, and the mixing time of aluminum paste and foam stabilizer has a great influence on pore size. The thermal conductivity test and compressive test results indicated that that pore size had an effect on the thermal conductivity, but it had little effect on the compressive strength, and the thermal conductivity of sand aeration AAC was 8.3% higher than that of fly ash aeration AAC; the compressive strength was 10.4% higher, too. With almost the same apparent density, the regression mathematical model indicates that the thermal conductivity of AAC increased gradually with the increase of pore size, but it had little effect on the compressive strength. From the test results of basic mechanical properties, the mechanical model of cubic compressive strength, elastic modulus, axial compressive strength, and splitting tensile strength was obtained. The proposed stress–strain relationship model could well describe the relationship of AAC and the base material at the rising section of the curve.
