    Yao Lu1, Jianyu Chen2, Dianlei Feng3,*, Moubin Liu1,*
    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.25, No.3, pp. 1-2, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.010004
    Abstract CFRPs (carbon fiber reinforced plastics), as a kind of fiber-reinforced plastic, present various advantages over traditional materials regarding the specific strength, stiffness, and corrosion resistance. For this reason, CFRPs are widely used in the space industry, like satellites and space stations, which are easily subjected to the HVIs (hypervelocity impacts) threatened by space debris. In order to mitigate the damage of HVIs and protect the spatial structures, it is necessary to predict the HVI process on CFRPs. Smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method, as a mesh-free particle-based method, has been widely applied for modeling HVI problems… More >

    Atomistic Simulations of Grain Boundary Mediated Plastic Deformation Mechanisms in Nanostructured Metals

    Qishan Huang1, Haofei Zhou2,*
    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.25, No.3, pp. 1-1, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.010014
    Abstract Nanostructured metals contain vast amount of grain boundaries which are crucial to their mechanical behaviors. The plastic deformation mechanisms mediated by grain boundaries have been attracted increasing attentions in recent years. Our recent studies have been focused on using atomistic simulations to understand the grain boundary mediated plastic deformation mechanisms including deformation twinning initiated by dislocation nucleation from grain boundaries [1], cyclic plastic deformability governed by reversible slip of grain boundary dislocations [2], and extreme shear deformation of nanocrystals induced by twin boundary sliding [3]. We have also proposed a misorientation-dependent model to explain the More >

    Shear Localization in Polycrystalline Metal at High-Strain Rates with Dynamic Recrystallization: Crystal Plasticity Modeling and Texture Effect

    Qilin Xiong1,2,*, Wen An1,2, Chuanzhi Liu1,2
    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.25, No.3, pp. 1-1, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.010044
    Abstract Shear localization is an important failure mode, or even the dominant mode in metals at high-strain rates. However, it is a great challenge to accurately predict the occurrence and evolution of shear localization in metals at the high-strain rate deformation. Here, a dislocation-based crystal plasticity constitutive model with a crucial mechanism of shear instability, namely dynamic recrystallization, was developed. The evolution equations of dislocation density and grain size in the process of dynamic recrystallization were proposed and incorporated into the new constitutive model. The threshold of the stored energy in crystals was used as the… More >

    Monte Carlo Simulation of Photon Transport in Composite Materials

    Ping Yang1, Pengyang Zhao1,*
    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.25, No.3, pp. 1-1, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.010047
    Abstract Composite materials may be subjected to an extreme condition where the surface is exposed to high-energy photon radiation (e.g., laser radiation), which can cause severe damage and destruction of the structure component. How the radiation energy is deposited in the composite material can greatly influence the subsequent damage process, which may include local heating, phase transformation, heat-induced shock waves, plasticity, etc. While the interaction of high-energy photons with homogeneous materials have been well studied, it is still a challenge to model the photon transport in composite materials, which have been increasingly used in more and… More >

    MPI Massive Parallelization of Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics for Simulation of Impact and Explosion Problems

    Jiahao Liu1, Moubin Liu1,*
    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.25, No.3, pp. 1-1, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.010056
    Abstract The dynamic failure process of structures under impact and explosive loading is very common in both military and industrial fields. However, the conventional mesh-based method has some shortcomings, such as large mesh distortion and sliding surface treatment. Some typical phenomena are difficult to be simulated. The smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method has natural advantages in treating large material deformations in impact and explosion problems [1]. To make the SPH method suitable for the impact and explosion problems, it is also improved by some treatments [2] to avoid inherent stress instability and unphysical oscillation. However, numerical… More >

    Theoretical and Numerical Research on the Vertical Impact of a Slender Flat-Ended 316 Stainless Steel Rod

    Yifan Wang1, Tao Wang1,*, Xuan Ye2,*
    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.25, No.3, pp. 1-1, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.010058
    Abstract Rod occasionally drops and impacts on a substrate, which can induce drastic vibration within the rod. Acquaintance with the mechanical and motional responses helps to evaluate the structure. In this study, the vertical impact of a slender flat-ended 316 stainless steel rod on a rigid flat was investigated. The rod was basically elastic despite minute plastic dissipation, which accounted for around 0.11% of the total energy, probably due to the convergence of the incident stress waves. Theoretical models describing the longitudinal vibration of the rod was established respectively using the contact-impact force and the displacement… More >

    Deformation Behaviour and Strengthening Mechanism of High-Entropy Alloys Using Model and Simulation

    Jia Li1, Yang Chen1, Baobin Xie1, Weizheng Lu1, Qihong Fang1,*
    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.25, No.3, pp. 1-2, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.010064
    Abstract The high-profile high-entropy alloy shows outstanding mechanical properties. However, the accurate and reasonable models for describing the mechanical behavior of HEAs are still scarce due to their distinctive characteristics such as serious lattice distortion, which limit the engineering application. We have developed a new general framework combining atomic simulation, discrete dislocation dynamics and crystal plasticity finite element method, to study the deformation behaviour and strengthening mechanism of HEAs, and realized the influence of complex cross-scale factors on material deformation [1-3]. Compared with the classic crystal plasticity finite element, the bottom-up hierarchical multiscale model could couple… More >

    Chuanlong Xu1, Haidong Fan1,*
    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.25, No.3, pp. 1-1, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.010110
    Abstract Grain boundary (GB) is an important microstructure and plays a vital role in the mechanical properties of polycrystalline materials by GB migration and sliding. In this work, molecular dynamic (MD) simulations were performed to investigate the migration mechanisms of symmetric tilt grain boundaries (STGBs) in magnesium. A total of 15 STGBs with the rotation angle θ from 0° to 90° were studied under a pure shear loading. The results show that the GB migration mechanisms are significantly influenced by the GB structure. For small angle STGBs (θ<28°), the GB migration is mediated … More >

    Multiscale Plasticity-Fracture Coupled Model

    Yinan Cui1,*, Zhijie Li1, Zhangtao Li1, Zhanli Liu1, Zhuo Zhuang1
    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.25, No.3, pp. 1-1, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.010121
    Abstract How the plasticity features influence the fracture behaviours of material is a critical question but remains far from well understood. To disclose this mystery, a multiscale plasticity-fracture coupled model is developed, which considers the atomistic-scale dislocation motion mechanism, the mesoscopic scales of discrete crack-dislocation interactions, and the continuum scale of crystalline plastic-fracture response. Body center cubic (bcc) material is chosen as an example to demonstrate the effectiveness of the developed model due to their wide applications and their special plasticity features, such as strong temperature dependence and non-Schmid effect. Several new insights about the fracture More >

    Quasi-Two-Dimensional Gold Nanosheets with Ultrahigh Strength

    Tong Zhang1, Binglun Yin1,2, Pan Wang3, Yang Gao1,2,*
    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.25, No.3, pp. 1-2, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.010131
    Abstract Solid gold usually holds face-centered-cubic structure and relatively low strength of 102 MPa. When the dimension is reduced to the nanoscale, the strength of metal should increase accordingly, due to size effect or complex nanostructures [1-3]. However, reported maximum strength in gold nanostructures is yet considerably lower than the ideal strength (~6 GPa), referring to the stress at elastic instability in a defectfree crystal with infinite dimensions [3-5]. Herein, the ideal strength of gold is experimentally achieved in a quasi-two-dimensional defect-free single crystalline nanosheet with hexagonal-close-packed (HCP) structure. Ultrathin gold nanosheets with a high aspect… More >

    Abstract The last decades have witnessed the real and huge potential applications of hydrogels in various areas, including biomedicine, soft robotics, and flexible electronics. The fatigue of hydrogels challenges their reliability and longevity in service, but the related works are not sufficient. In this work, stress-controlled cyclic fatigue tests of a double-network tough hydrogel, consisting of polyacrylamide and alginate polymer networks, under pure shear deformation are investigated. The effects of peak stress, loading rate, peak stress holding time, and environmental relative humidity on the fatigue of the double-network tough hydrogel are considered.

    Abstract Additive manufacturing emerges as an innovative technology to fabricate medical stents used to treat blocked arteries. However, there is a lack of study of underlying microstructure and mechanical properties of additively manufactured stent. In this work, additively manufactured 316L stainless steel stent was investigated, with electrochemical polishing being used to improve the surface finish. Microstructural characterisation was carried out using optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and electron backscatter diffraction. The hardness and elastic modulus were measured using Berkovich nanoindentation, with an emphasis on the effect of grain orientation. In addition, spherical nanoindentation was used to… More >

    Abstract In recent years, metal additive manufacturing (AM) has gained increasing attention from various industries. However, there are few studies on the thermal deformation behavior of additively manufactured metallic components, which is vital to pushing its applications’ boundary. In this work, we first experimentally investigate the mechanical behavior of AlSi10Mg produced by laser powder bed fusion under different temperatures and strain rates. A crystal plasticity finite element model is adopted to provide insights into the intrinsic deformation mechanisms. The model is validated by comparing it with the flow behaviors and dislocation evolutions observed in experiments at More >

    Investigating the Self-Force and Evolution of High-Speed Dislocations in Impacted Metals: A Discrete-Continuous Model and Configurational Mechanics Analysis

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.25, No.3, pp. 1-1, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.010223
    Abstract The responses of metals subjected to super high rates of deformation (> 10!/�), as shocking loading, is an area of active research. At such extreme loading rates, subsonic, transonic, and even supersonic dislocation (compared with the shear wave speed in metals) play a crucial role in plastic deformation. The behavior of high-speed dislocations is much more complex than that of quasi-static dislocations under static loads, as their self-force is history-dependent, and their evolution of density is rate-relevant. However, the fundamental questions regarding the self-force and evolution of high-speed dislocations in impacted materials is largely unknown.… More >

    Abstract Blade flutter is a complex phenomenon that can lead to serious damage or failure of turbomachinery systems. Predicting and mitigating blade flutter is therefore an important aspect of the design and analysis of these systems[1]. In this paper, we present a comparative study of two representative methods for blade flutter predictions: the energy method and the computational fluid dynamics/computational structural dynamics (CFD/CSD) coupled time-domain method. The energy method is a decoupled approach that uses a simplified model of the blade and fluid-structure interaction to calculate the stability boundaries of the system[2].

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.25, No.3, pp. 1-2, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.010342
    Abstract The hot section components are usually in service under cyclic loading in an extreme working environment with high rotational speed at high temperatures, which is prone to fatigue failure. It is reported that fatigue related failures have accounted for over 50% of all failures of hot section components. Consequently, fatigue related failure at high temperature is one of the most important factors that shortens the service life of hot section components. Ni-based superalloy GH4169, similar as Inconel 718 (IN718), is a γ′′ and γ′ precipitation strengthened alloy. For decades, GH4169 superalloy keeps being an important… More >

    Abstract Material wear between contact surfaces with relatively sliding can be related to the failure of elevated asperities at small scales. The asperity wear depends on various factors, including material properties, interfacial adhesion, and friction velocity. In this study, using a series of materials characterized by the modified coarse-grained potentials, we studied the rate effect of adhesive wear at the asperity level over a wide range of plowing conditions. The results showed that increasing plowing velocity leads to the transition of the wear mechanism from plasticity-induced asperity smoothing to the formation of fractured debris and thus… More >
