In this paper we study the dynamic behavior of a concentrated short glass fiber suspension subject to simple shear flow. In particular we are interested in determining the relationship between the stress growth functions (shear and first normal stress) and the evolution of the fibers’ orientation distribution within the sample. Stress growth experiments, in start-up of flow, are performed on a ...

In hot forming process, the workpiece undergoes plastic deformation at high temperature and the microstructure of the workpiece changes according to the plastic deformation. These changes affect the mechanical properties of workpiece. In order to optimize this process, both the plastic deformation of workpiece and its microstructural changes should be taken into consideration. Since material be...

instruction: measurement of brachial artery diameter variation by ultrasound methods has commonly been used to test the endothelial function. it is known that the artery diameter is increased by flow stimulation. therefore in the present study, the effect of external obstruction, as flow stimulation, on the radial strain of the brachial artery was assessed. also the biomechanical behavior of th...

This study suggests the estimation method of stress distribution for the beam structures based on TLS (Terrestrial Laser Scanning). The main components of method are the creation of the lattices of raw data from TLS to satisfy the suitable condition and application of CSSI (Cubic Smoothing Spline Interpolation) for estimating stress distribution. Estimation of stress distribution for the struct...

Till now, different constitutive models have been applied to model the hot deformation flow curves of different materials. In this research, the hot deformation flow stress of API X65 pipeline steel was modeled using the power law equation with strain dependent constants. The results was compared with the results of the other previously examined constitutive equations including the Arrhenius eq...

Tensile stress-strain curve is of high importance in mechanics of materials particularly in numerical simulations of material deformations. The curve is usually obtained by experiment but is limited by necking phenomenon. Engineering stress-strain curve is converted to true stress-strain curve through simple formulas. The conversion, however, is correct up the point of necking. From this point ...
