It is found that a tensile CPF-induced stress generates near the interface between the CPF and the copper substrate at the substrate side in front of the notch tip for a U-shaped edgenotched specimens. The CPF-induced stress is superimposed on the applied stress to enhance emission and motion of dislocations. The peak opening stress (S11) increases with an increase in CPF thickness and a decrease in CPF Young's modulus. Damage mechanics based on the CZM was applied to study the stress corrosion crack initiation and propagation by analyzing the stress redistributions and load-displacement curves. The results show that the crack initiates first in the CPF and then propagates to the copper substrate. The fracture strain of the specimen covered a CPF is lower than that without a CPF. Based on the simulation results, the mechanism of the CPF-induced SCC, which promoted the initiation and propagation of the stress corrosion cracks, was discussed.展开更多

But the thermal mechanism of magnesium alloy/titanium alloy ultrasonic welding has not been defined clearly. In this paper, the experimental and the finite element analysis were adopted to study the thermal mechanism during welding. Through the test, the temperature variation law during the welding process is obtained, and the accuracy of the finite element model is verified. The microscopic analysis indicates that at the welding time of 0.5 s, the magnesium alloy in the center of the solder joint is partially melted and generates the liquid phase. Through the finite element analysis, the friction coefficient of the magnesium–titanium ultrasonic welding interface can be considered as an average constant value of 0.28. The maximum temperature at the interface can exceed 600 ℃ to reach the melting point temperature of the magnesium alloy. The plastic deformation begins after 0.35 s and occurs at the magnesium side at the center of the interface.展开更多

Fe-rich areas ofdifferent contents are observed in the matrix. The stress distributions and strain characteristicsat the interface between Cu matrix and Fe particle are studied by elastic-plastic finite elementplane strain model. Larger Fe particles and higher deforming extent of finish rolling are attributedto the intense stress gradient and significant non-homogeneity equivalent strain at the interfaceand accelerate surface peeling of Cu-0.1Fe-0.03P lead frame sheet.展开更多

The axial preloading stiffness was treated as the sum of the spindle modal stiffness and the framework elastic stiffness, based on a novel concept that magnitude of preloads can be controlled by measuring the resonant frequency of a spindle system. By employing an example of a certain type of aircraft simulating rotary table, the modal stiffness was measured on the Agilent 35670A Dynamic Signal Analyzer by experimental modal analysis. The equivalent elastic stiffness was simulated by both finite element analysis in ANSYS? and a curve fitting in MATLAB?. Results showed that the static preloading stiffness of the spindle was 7.2125×107 N/m, and that the optimal preloading force was 120.0848 N. Practical application proved the feasibility of our method.展开更多

A method of improving the magnetic signals is proposed in this paper by placing the excitation device which generates a weak external magnetic field about 100 A/re. The effect of the external magnetic field on the magnetic signals is studied using both finite element method (FEM) and uniaxial tensile tests. Comparison of the test data with the simulation ones of stress-magnetic coupling shows that the magnetic signals are strengthened and the measurement sensitivity of the detection system is greatly improved through the external magnetic excitation. Moreover, the FEM result has a good agreement with the testing results of No. 20 steel plate. The proposed method has laid a foundation for further practical engineering application.展开更多

In order to analyze the human ONH head stress and deformation in high IOP, an in vivo three-dimensional (3D) ONH model was reconstructed by optical coherence tomography (OCT) images and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images. Materials and Methods: A human eye was scanned by MRI and OCT in serial imaging protocol. The sclera and ONH were segmented from the images, and 3D models were reconstructed by multimodality image registration. Through the morphological segmentation, part of lamina cribrosa (LC) was acquired and reconstructed in combination with the ONH and sclera. Results: The models of ONH and sclera were got, the part of LC was included in the model. In the analysis of FEM, the ONH was compressed and the cup/disk ratio was changed obviously in high glaucomatous IOP. Discussion: This study described a method to build a 3D in vivo ONH model by image processing. It can be used in biomechanieal analysis, and provide the stress state of ONH for the research about the fundus damage of glaucoma.展开更多

FBG sensors are applied to construct the sensing network to detect the structural dynamic response signals generated by active actuation. The damage identification model is built based on the BP neural network. The dynamic signal characteristics extracted by the Fourier transform are the inputs, and the damage states are the outputs of the model. Besides, damages are simulated by placing lumped masses with different weights instead of inducing real damages, which is confirmed to be feasible by finite element analysis (FEA). At last, the damage identification system is verified on a CFRP plate with 300mm × 300mm experimental area, with the accurate identification of varied damage states. The system provides a practical way for CFRP structural damage identification.展开更多

The trap is composed of a pair of disk electrodes and a hexapole. With the help of a finite element software, the spatial distribution of the electrostatic field is calculated. The results indicate that a three-dimensional closed electrostatic trap is formed. Taking NDa molecules as an example, the dynamic process of loading and trapping is simulated. The results show that when the velocity of the molecular beam is 10 m/s and the loading time is 0.9964 ms, the maximum loading efficiency reaches 94.25% and the temperature of the trapped molecules reaches about 30.3 inK. A single well can be split into two wells, which is of significant importance to the precision measurement and interference of matter waves. This scheme, in addition, can be further miniaturized to construct one-dimensional, two-dimensional, and three-dimensional spatial electrostatic lattices.展开更多
