hot rolling of a large ring of titanium alloy (lrt) is a highly nonlinear incremental forming process with coupled mechanical and thermal behaviors (mtbs) which significantly affect microstructure and properties of the ring. the feed rate of idle roll and the rotational speed of driver roll have major effects on ovality of the ring. in this paper, the effects of these parameters on the ovality ...

Introduction. Multi-tensor models are of great interest for clinical applications because they enable the assessment of the white matter microstructure of individual fiber bundles in addition to the brain connectivity. In this work we propose a novel acquisition scheme and a novel fitting procedure for estimating the parameters of a multi-compartment model with two tensors and free water diffus...

A computational approach to the optimization of service properties of two-phase materials (in this case, fracture resistance of tool steels) by varying their microstructure is developed. The main points of the optimization of steels are as follows: (1) numerical simulation of crack initiation and growth in real microstructures of materials with the use of the multiphase finite elements (MPFE) a...

Design of deformation (thermo-mechanical) processes to achieve desired structural response will be addressed. Plastic deformation is assumed to be accommodated through crystallographic slip and reorientation of crystals. Conventional methodologies towards polycrystal plasticity use an aggregate of single crystals and this choice of the aggregate affects the response of the polycrystal. In order...
