Abstract Nanograin materials have superior properties in mechanics, physics and chemistry. Here, we found a new phenomenon that nanograin formation spontaneously occurs the process of ductile fracture for titanium alloy, dominating mechanism is local severe-plastic-deformation (LSPD). The microstructure evolution during entire monotonic tension was revealed to further understand from plastic de...

abstract castleman disease or giant node hyperplasia is a rare disorder of the lymphoid tissue most often involving the mediastinal lymph nodes. we report a case of localized retroperitoneal hyaline-vascular type of castleman disease. a 35-year old woman presented with mild epigastric pain with radiation to the back. amild anemia was the only abnormal associated finding. abdominal ultrasound an...

We present atomistic simulations of h110i oriented gold nanowires under tensile deformation. We find that h110i gold nanowires tend to form elongated, stable nanobridges upon necking, which is in agreement with previous experimental observations. In addition, the simulations reveal that the formation of a high strength multishell lattice structure during the plastic deformation of the h110i wir...

The production of prismatic dislocation loops in nuclear reactor core materials results hardening because the impede motion. Yielding often occurs by a localised clearing through interactions with gliding dislocations called channeling. cleared channels represent softer material within which most subsequent deformation is localized. Channeling associated hypothetical pileup and intergranular cr...

Two major types of passive margins are recognized, i.e. volcanic and non-volcanic, without proposing distinctive mechanisms for their formation. Volcanic passive margins are associated with the extrusion and intrusion of large volumes of magma, predominantly mafic, and represent distinctive features of Larges Igneous Provinces, in which regional fissural volcanism predates localized syn-magmati...

We analyze the onset of ‘necking’ and subsequent filament failure during the transient uniaxial elongation of viscoelastic fluid samples in extensional rheometers. In the limit of rapid elongation (such that no molecular relaxation occurs) the external work applied is all stored elastically and the Considère criterion originally developed in solid mechanics can be used to quantitatively predict...

We apply a recently developed 3D flexure model incorporating lateral variations in flexural rigidity (EET) and necking depth (zn) to study the 3D effects of intraplate stresses on Quaternary accelerated subsidence and uplift in the North Sea Basin and adjacent areas. In the model approach lateral variations and magnitude of predicted Quaternary vertical motions are largely dependent on the pre-...

This paper uses X-ray computed tomography to track the mechanical response of a vertebrate (Barnacle goose) long bone subjected to an axial compressive load, which is increased gradually until failure. A loading rig was mounted in an X-ray computed tomography system so that a time-lapse sequence of three-dimensional (3D) images of the bone's internal (cancellous or trabecular) structure could b...
