Fifteen mechanochemical phenomena observed under compression and plastic shear of materials in a rotational diamond anvil cell (RDAC) are systematized. They are related to strain-induced structural changes (SCs) under high pressure, including phase transformations (PTs) and chemical reactions. A simple, three-scale continuum thermodynamic theory and closed-form solutions are developed which exp...

Fractal patterns are observed in computational mechanics of elastic-plastic transitions in two models of linear elastic/perfectly plastic random heterogeneous materials: (1) a composite made of locally isotropic grains with weak random fluctuations in elastic moduli and/or yield limits and (2) a polycrystal made of randomly oriented anisotropic grains. In each case, the spatial assignment of ma...

In Indonesia, there are still many parents who apply conventional ways of educating their children. This method makes always on the side those want to be right and don't listen children's opinions. As a result, children feel apathetic when they express feelings or opinions this is main obstacle communication in family, even though if we can each other have also taught about good communication, ...

The changes in elastic lattice-strain profiles and plastic zone around the fatigue crack in a compact-tension specimen were investigated during monotonic tensile loading and unloading cycles using neutron diffraction. Spatially-resolved strain measurements were performed on a 316 LN stainless steel to determine the in-plane (parallel to the loading direction) lattice-strain profiles ahead of th...

In present work, prediction the effect of nose radius, rz (mm) on the equivalent strain (PEEQ) and surface finish during the machining of titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) through orthogonal cutting process. The results were performed at several of the nose radiuses, rz (mm) while the cutting speed, vc (m/min), feed rate, f (mm/tooth) and depth of cut, d (mm) were remained constant. The equivalent pla...

Combined plastic flow and strain-induced phase transformations (PTs) under high pressure in a sample within a gasket subjected to three dimensional compression and torsion in a rotational diamond anvil cell (RDAC) are studied using a finite element approach. The results are obtained for the weaker, equal-strength, and stronger high-pressure phases in comparison with low-pressure phases. It is f...

We demonstrate a process to fabricate silicon photonic devices directly on a plastic film which is both flexible and transparent. This process allows the integration of complex structures on plastic films without the need of transferring from another substrate. Waveguides, grating couplers, and microring resonators are fabricated and optically characterized. An optical strain sensor is shown as...

Shear instabilities in the form of shear bands are often observed during high speed, plastic deformations of metals. According to one theory, their formation is attributed to eeective strain-softening response, which results, at high strain rates, as the net outcome of the innuence of thermal softening on the, normally, strain-hardening response of metals. In order to test the core instability ...
