In this presentation, a novel phase field grain growth model combined with a micro-elasticity effect including elastic anisotropy and inhomogeity is presented to demonstrate the effect of micro-elasticity on grain growth and texture evolution. We report on texture evolution and abnormal grain growth induced by external elastic load from the viewpoint of micro-elasticity and first demonstrate that the previous mechanism (macroscopic viewpoint) on the effect of external elastic load on grain growth does not work in strain-controlled system. In contrast to the macro-elastic descriptions, strong localization of strain energy density and inhomogeneous distribution even inside grains are observed. Moreover, elastically soft grains with a higher strain energy density grow at the expense of the elastically hard grains to reduce the total strain energy. It is observed that strong <100>//ND fiber texture was developed in poly-crystalline Cu with initial random texture by biaxial external strain while <111>//ND fiber texture evolved in biaxial external stress condition. Even, grain growth of <100>//ND textured grains is occurred as abnormal grain growth when <100>//ND textured grains are surrounded by <111>//ND fiber textured grains.

AbstractIn this paper, we present a general method to derive the explicit constitutive relations for isotropic elastic 6-parameter shells made from a Cosserat material. The dimensional reduction procedure extends the methods of the classical shell theory to the case of Cosserat shells. Starting from the three-dimensional Cosserat parent model, we perform the integration over the thickness and obtain a consistent shell model of order $$ O(h^5) $$ O ( h 5 ) with respect to the shell thickness h. We derive the explicit form of the strain energy density for 6-parameter (Cosserat) shells, in which the constitutive coefficients are expressed in terms of the three-dimensional elasticity constants and depend on the initial curvature of the shell. The obtained form of the shell strain energy density is compared with other previous variants from the literature, and the advantages of our constitutive model are discussed.

ABSTRACTAbnormal grain growth is characterized by the lack of a steady state grain size distribution. In extreme cases the size distribution becomes transiently bimodal, with a few grains growing much larger than the average size. This is known as secondary grain growth. In polycrystalline thin films, the surface energy γs and film/substrate interfacial energy γi vary with grain orientation, providing an orientation-selective driving force that can lead to abnormal grain growth. We employ a mean field analysis that incorporates the effect of interface energy anisotropy to predict the evolution of the grain size/orientation distribution. While abnormal grain growth and texture evolution always result when interface energy anisotropy is present, whether secondary grain growth occurs will depend sensitively on the details of the orientation dependence of γi.

ABSTRACTSelf-powered microsystems as an alternative to standard systems powered by electrochemical batteries are taking a growing interest. In this work, we propose a different method to store the energy harvested from the ambient which is performed in the mechanical domain. Our mechanical storage concept is based on a spring which is loaded by the force associated to the energy source to be harvested [1]. The approach is based on pressing an array of fine wires (fws) grown vertically on a substrate surface. For the fine wires based battery, we have chosen ZnO fine wires due the fact that they could be grown using a simple and cheap process named hydrothermal method [2]. We have reported previous experiments changing temperature and initial pH of the solution in order to determine the best growth [3]. From new experiments done varying the compounds concentration the best results of fine wires were obtained. To characterize these fine wires we have considered that the maximum load we can apply to the system is limited by the linear buckling of the fine wires. From the best results we obtained a critical strain of εc = 3.72 % and a strain energy density of U = 11.26 MJ/m3, for a pinned-fixed configuration [4].

The bi-material notch composed of two orthotropic parts is considered. The radial and tangential stresses and strain energy density is expressed using the Stroh-Eshelby-Lekhnitskii formalism for the plane elasticity. The potential direction of the crack initiation is determined from the maximum mean value of the tangential stresses and local minimum of the mean value of the generalized strain energy density factor in both materials. Matched asymptotic procedure is used to derive the change of potential energy for the debonding crack and the crack initiated in the determined direction.

This paper presents the application of the Strain Energy Density (SED) criterion to the estimation of fracture loads on structural steel S355J2 operating at lower shelf temperatures (−196°C) and containing U-shaped notches. 24 fracture tests were performed on this material, combining 6 different notch radii: 0 mm (crack-like defect), 0.15 mm, 0.25 mm, 0.50 mm, 1.0 mm and 2.0 mm. The results obtained in cracked specimens (0 mm notch radius) were used to determine the material fracture toughness, which is an input parameter in the SED criterion, whereas the notched specimens were used to demonstrate the capacity and the limitations of the SED criterion to provide fracture load estimations in the analyzed conditions.
