The RHEOMETALTM process is a commercially used semi-solid process for production of high integrity cast components. The process differs from most other semi-solid casting processes in that temperature control is not necessary during processing and large amount of slurry with required solid fraction can be quickly produced. The simplicity of this process has led to a large commercial interest during the last year. This work is based on an investigation regarding the variation of as-cast mechanical properties for secondary Al-Si based alloys (~2.5 % Cu) with a Si content varying from 4.55 to 8.90 % using the RHEOMETALTM process. The purpose was to find the most suitable Al-Si alloy for rheocasting, in comparison with the common HPDC-alloy A380 (EN-AC46000). It was found that lower Si containing alloys exhibited better elongation but slightly lower yield strength. The alloy containing 5.39 wt% Si showed the highest ultimate tensile strength in this investigation. The lower Si containing alloys also demonstrated better feedability in the rheocasting process, which is contrary to what normally is found for normal liquid casting processes. Based on the results in this investigation it is recommended to use an alloy containing about 5-7 wt% Si for rheocasting purposes.

Proposed in this study are several innovative seismic isolators composed of rubber materials that are called adaptive rubber bearings based on their adaptive characteristics. The materials used in the proposed isolators are free of lead commonly found in lead rubber bearings. The lead material results in a heavy environmental burden as well as lower yield strength and damping due to rising temperature during earthquakes, and thus causes larger displacements than we would expect. The designed mechanisms in the proposed isolators enable these devices to be manufactured relatively easily. They also provide extremely high damping to bearings, which is strongly desired by engineers in practice. The proposed rubber bearings are completely passive devices yet possess adaptive stiffness and adaptive high damping. The change in stiffness and damping is predictable and can be calculated at specifiable and controllable displacement amplitudes. The major benefit of the adaptive characteristics of seismic isolators is that a given system can be optimized separately for multiple performance objects at multiple levels of earthquakes. In this study, mathematical formulations are derived to explain the mechanisms of the proposed devices. Experimental results of high velocity cyclical loadings are also provided to verify the advanced concepts of the proposed devices.

Unmodified talc fillers were compounded with polypropylene (PP) and copolymer polyethylene (Co-PP) separately in a Brabender plasticorder internal mixer at 180 °C and 50 rpm in order to obtain composites, which contain 040 phr (per 100 part of resin) of filler at 40 phr intervals. The morphology development and the mechanical properties of the composites with reference to filler loading were investigated. In terms of mechanical properties, Youngs modulus and maximum compression load increased, whereas yield strength and elongation at break decreased with the increase in filler loading of PP/Co-PP/Talc composites. The PP/Co-PP exhibited lower yield strength and youngs modulus, and higher elongation at break than talc composites (data not show here). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to examine the structure of the fracture surface to justify the variation of the measured mechanical properties.

Zone of yield strength is a part of stress-strain diagram on steel. In this zone is located an upper and lower yield strength points. These points are important for calculation and design of steel structures elements. When a structural element is corroded, its mechanical properties are changed i.e. changes the geometric characteristics, superficial defects appear and leads to structural changes of material. The facts unambiguously determine that in order to decide whether or not the corrosion element can be reuse, it is necessary to study the material and to determine the new values at the yield strength points. In order to legally make the necessary calculation in sizing and to judge for its reuse. The report studies a zone of yield strength on steel elements with corrosion. Experimental data was obtained, then processed using the stochastic method of processing empirically obtained data, and it was determined with sufficient probability the values to be used for calculation and design in practice.

Constrained groove pressing (CGP) is a severe plastic deformation technique to produce the ultra-fine grained sheet. The inhomogeneous strain distribution and geometry variation induce differential mechanical properties in the processed sheet. The improved mechanical properties of CGP sheets is due to the composite effect of weak and strong regions formed by geometric and strain inhomogeneities. Weaker regions exhibit large strain, lower yield strength, and higher strain hardening compared to stronger regions. The estimation of mechanical properties is influenced by these defects leading to the difference in the mechanical properties along different orientations. Experimental investigation revealed that the commonly used tensile samples cut perpendicular to the groove orientation exhibit variation in thickness along the gauge length affecting the results from tensile tests. To further understand the effect of geometric variation, a typical CGP specimen was reverse engineered and finite element (FE) simulation was performed using the actual geometry of the CGP processed specimen. The strain distribution from FE simulation was validated experimentally using the digital image correlation data. Based on the numerical and experimental studies, miniature specimens were designed to eliminate the geometric effects from the standard parallel specimen. Miniature parallel specimens showed lower yield strength and total elongation compared to the standard specimens. However, the statistical scatter of total elongation of the miniature specimens was much less than that of the standard specimens, indicating better repeatability. Probably this is the first study to quantify the contribution of composite geometric effect in the mechanical properties of CGP.

The objective of this work was to investigate the fracture behavior of a heterogeneous I-shaped welded joint in the context of yield load solutions. The weld was divided into two equal parts, using the metal with the higher yield strength and the metal with the lower yield strength compared to base metal. For both configurations of the I-shaped weld, one with a crack in strength in the over-matched part of the weld and one for a crack in the under-matched part of the weld, a systematic study of fracture toughness SE(B) specimen was carried out in which the crack length, the width of the weld and the strength mismatch factor for both weld metals were varied, and the yield loads were determined. As a result of the study, two mathematical models for determination of yield loads are proposed. Both models were experimentally tested with one strength mismatch configuration, and the results showed good agreement and sufficiently conservative results compared to the experimental results.

The current study examines the effect of grain size on machining-induced residual stresses (RS), during turning, using finite element modelling. Based on the well-known inverse relation between grain size and material strength, the grain size effect was simulated via changing the workpiece yield strength. This was also done at different strain hardening rates. The model was validated using four materials. Larger grain size (lower yield strength) resulted in higher surface tensile RS. This is attributed to the surface layer being subjected to higher compressive plastic deformation, as well as higher workpiece temperatures, which both contribute to higher tensile RS.

The Variation of the mechanical properties of coiled tubing with increasing of the bending cycles was studied based on the fatigue bending cycle machine. The results show that the tensile strength had no significance changes during cycle fatigue. The yield strength and the force value was significantly decreased after 300 cycles, and the corresponding decreased magnitude linearly increased with the increasing of bending cycles. The changing tendency of strain hardening exponent on compression surface is different from the one on extruded surface. When the cycles increase from 100 to 600, the exponent on compression surface shows increases firstly, and decreases afterwards, However, the one on extruded surface shows decreases firstly, and increases afterwards. The yield strengths of the compression surface and extruded surface show the same changing tendency as strain hardening exponent.

The strength and plasticity balance of F/B dual-phase X80 pipeline steels strongly depends on deformation compatibility between the soft phase of ferrite and the hard phase of bainite; thus, the tensile strength of ferrite and bainite, as non-negligible factors affecting the deformation compatibility, should be considered first. In this purely theoretical paper, an abstract representative volume elements (RVE) model was developed, based on the mesostructure of an F/B dual-phase X80 pipeline steel. The effect of the yield strength difference between bainite and ferrite on tensile properties and the strain hardening behaviors of the mesostructure was studied. The results show that deformation first occurs in ferrite, and strain and stress localize in ferrite prior to bainite. In the modified Crussard-Jaoul (C-J) analysis, as the yield strength ratio of bainite to ferrite (σy,B/σy,F) increases, the transition strain associated with the deformation transformation from ferrite soft phase deformation to uniform deformation of ferrite and bainite increases. Meanwhile, as the uncoordinated deformation of ferrite and bainite is enhanced, the strain localization factor (SLF) increases, especially the local strain concentration. Consequently, the yield, tensile strength, and yield ratio (yield strength/tensile strength) increase with the increase in σy,B/σy,F. Inversely, the strain hardening exponent and uniform elongation decrease.
