In this work, the fracture behavior of a multi-layered thin film structure under residual tensile stress is investigated theoretically. Using composite material theory and a modified shear-lag model, the analytical solutions for the distribution laws of the tensile stress developed in the first-layer thin film and the shear stress developed along the interface can be obtained. In addition, the crack density of the first-layer thin film can be derived from the residual stress and the mechanical and geometric parameters of the cracked system. This result also yields a measurement of the residual stress from the crack density and the mechanical and geometric parameters of the system. Finally, a numerical example is presented to show how the crack density varies versus the residual stress.

The effect of the mechanical properties and geometric parameters on the crack density of a multi-layered thin film structure under residual tensile stress is investigated theoretically. The numerical results show that the crack density of the thin film decreases with the increase of the thickness of the thin film and (or) the fracture strength of the thin film. These results can help us more deeply understand the fracture behavior of the multi-layered thin film structure under residual tensile stress.

The effect of the mechanical properties and geometric parameters on the crack density of the thin film/substrate system under residual stress and uniaxial tensile loading is investigated in this work. The numerical results show that the crack density of the thin film increases with the increase of the Youngs modulus of the thin film and (or) the shear modules of the interface layer, and it decreases with the increase of the thickness of the thin film and (or) the fracture strength of the thin film. These results can help us more deeply understand the fracture behavior of the brittle thin film on the substrate under residual stress and external tensile loading.

The fracture behavior of a brittle coating on an elastic substrate under residual stress is investigated. Using a mechanical model, the analytical solutions for the distribution laws of the tensile stress developed in the coating, the shear stress developed along the interface and the relationship between the crack density of the coating and the residual stress can be obtained. The analytic relationship between the crack density and the residual stress can also be taken as a new expression to estimate the magnitude of the residual stress. A numerical example is presented to show how the crack density varies versus the residual stress.

To grind fused silica in ductile mode, it was proposed to repair surface and subsurface micro cracks of fused silica by CO2 laser irradiation. However, excessive residual stress remains on the surface because the melt fused silica on the surface quenches in air. It causes the critical depth of cut for ductile grinding fused silica to be smaller than 0.2μm. To investigate the distribution of the residual stress and look for an optimal manner of irradiation to control residual tensile stress, a numerical model of was built for simulating the dynamic behavior of fused silica when irradiated by CO2 laser. Laser energy absorption, heat transmission, viscoelastic behavior of fused silica and thermally induced stress were considered in the numerical simulation. The results show how the residual stress is formed and distributed. We found that an appropriate control of the temperature field as a function of time and position in the laser process is the key to reduce the residual stress. Therefore, three kinds of processes were proposed to reduce residual tensile stress on the surface of fused silica introduced by laser irradiation. The residual stress distributions of these three processes were compared by numerical analysis to decide a better method of laser irradiation.

The stress distribution on the midsection of a pure bending beam where tensile strain localization band initiates on the tensile side of the beam and propagates within the beam is analyzed. Using the static equilibrium condition on the section of the midspan of the beam and the assumption of plane section as well as the linear softening constitutive relation beyond the tensile strength, the expressions for the length of tensile strain localization band and the distance from the tip of the band to the neutral axis are derived. After superimposing a linear unloading stress distribution over the initial stress distribution, the residual stress distribution on the midsection of the beam is investigated. In the process of strain localization band’s propagation, strain-softening behavior of the band occurs and neutral axis will shift. When the unloading moment is lower, the length of tensile strain localization band remains a constant since the stress on the base side of the beam is tensile stress. While, for larger unloading moment, with an increase of unloading moment, the length of tensile strain localization band decreases and the distance from the initial neutral axis to the unloading neutral axis increases. The neutral axis of midsection of the beam will shift in the unloading process. The present analysis is applicable to some metal materials and many quasi-brittle geomaterials (rocks and concrete, etc) in which tensile strength is lower than compressive strength. The present investigation is limited to the case of no real crack. Moreover, the present investigation is limited to the case that the length of strain localization band before unloading is less than half of depth of the beam. Otherwise, the residual tensile stress above the elastic neutral axis will be greater than the tensile strength, leading to the further development of tensile strain localization band in the unloading process.

In recent automobile trends, the functions of opening and closing the vehicle door are accomplished by touch sensor and smart-phone NFC (Near Field Communication) systems. These convenience features are incorporated into the outdoor handle. However, this function can’t be used when chrome plating is applied to this part for design purposes. To solve the problem of chrome plating, we studied a metal sputtering deposition process technology, which can preserve the metal feeling without interfering with NFC and touch sensor operation. To achieve this interface communication and sensing performance, we developed a surface treatment that can generate micro-cracks in the thin film layer. We also investigated how the door handle manufacturing process affected the shape of the micro-cracks in the thin film. Results showed that the thickness of the thin film and the target power played a crucial role in controlling the residual tensile stress in the thin film, which was one of major factors responsible for generating micro-cracks in the thin film layer. The shape of the micro-cracks in the thin film was affected by the adjacent layers of the thin film, the primer paint and UV top coat. The surface energy of the primer paint and the shear stress produced by the hardening of the UV top coat were found to affect the shape of the micro-cracks. In addition, we found that there was no change in the shape of the micro-cracks with additional heat treatment, if the residual tensile stress was sufficiently relieved by the micro-cracks formed in the thin film. The slits between the micro-cracks in the outdoor handle cover allowed the Capacitance Sensor and NFC to perform.
