A phenomenological constitutive law is developed for the deformation of polycrystalline ferroelastic materials. The model is framed within a thermodynamic setting common to internal variable plasticity. The two significant inputs to this model are a switching (yield) surface, and a hardening potential. To maintain simplicity, the shape of the switching surface is assumed to be spherical in a mo...

Lignocellulosic materials are commonly used in bio-H2 production for the sustainable energy resource development as they are abundant, cheap, renewable and highly biodegradable. In the process of the bio-H2 production, the pretreated lignocellulosic materials are firstly converted to monosaccharides by enzymolysis and then to H2 by fermentation. Since the structures of lignocellulosic materials...

In this paper some saturation properties of silicone oil-based magnetorheological fluids in mechanical engineering were researched and discussed by theoretical analysis and experiments. Firstly, experiment materials and preparation process of silicone oil-based magnetorheological fluids were presented. Secondly, magnetic-field saturation, particles saturation and added nano-particles saturation...

Magnetic Shape-Memory (MSM) materials are a new category of actuator materials with the potential to produce both large actuator strain and rapid response. To explore the possibility of developing MSM materials based on Fe-Ni-Co-Ti alloys, the effects of chemical composition (Co/Ni ratio) and ausaging on microstructure and magnetic shapememory response were studied. A suitable choice of chemica...

Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress sensors use a related luminal domain to monitor the unfolded protein load and convey the signal to downstream effectors, signaling an unfolded protein response (UPR) that maintains compartment-specific protein folding homeostasis. Surprisingly, perturbation of cellular lipid composition also activates the UPR, with important consequences in obesity and diabetes...

A computational investigation using a unique model and a solution algorithm was conducted, changing only the saturation pressure of one material artificially during nanopowder formation in thermal plasma fabrication, to highlight the effects of the saturation pressure difference between a metal and silicon. The model can not only express any profile of particle size-composition distribution for...
