    Growth, Anisotropy, and Residual Stresses in Arteries

    K. Y. Volokh 1, 2 , Y. Lev3

    Molecular & Cellular Biomechanics, Vol.2, No.1, pp. 27-40, 2005, DOI:10.3970/mcb.2005.002.027

    Abstract A simple phenomenological theory of tissue growth is used in order to demonstrate that volumetric growth combined with material anisotropy can lead to accumulation of residual stresses in arteries. The theory is applied to growth of a cylindrical blood vessel with the anisotropy moduli derived from experiments. It is shown that bending resultants are developed in the ring cross-section of the artery. These resultants may cause the ring opening or closing after cutting the artery \textit {in vitro} as it is observed in experiments. It is emphasized that the mode of the arterial ring opening is affected by the parameters… More >

    Three-Dimensional J-Integral Based on a Domain Integral Method for Non-Homogeneous Solid with Residual Stresses Undergoing Large Deformation

    Hiroshi Okada*, Tatsuro Ishizaka, Akira Takahashi, Koichiro Arai, Yasunori Yusa

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.21, No.1, pp. 10-11, 2019, DOI:10.32604/icces.2019.05037

    Abstract In this paper, a new three-dimensional J-integral for non-homogeneous solids undergoing large deformation and associated with residual stresses is presented. The formulation of J-integral involves the strain energy density W that is generally defined by the integral W = ∫0t τijε·ijdt over the entire deformation history of a material point where tij and ε·ij are the components of the Kirchhoff stress and those of velocity strain. t and t represents the time. It is assumed that at t = 0 the body is free from any deformation and therefore the stresses are zeros.

    Residual Stresses in Resistance Spot Welded AZ61 Mg Alloy

    Davood Afshari1,*, Soheil Mirzaahamdi1, Zuheir Barsoum2

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.118, No.2, pp. 275-290, 2019, DOI:10.31614/cmes.2019.03880

    Abstract The use of magnesium alloys has been rapidly increased due to their ability to maintain high strengths at light weights. However weldability of steels and aluminum alloys by using resistance spot weld (RSW) process is a major issue, because it cannot be directly utilized for magnesium alloys. In this study, a structural-thermal-electrical finite element (FE) model has been developed to predict the distribution of residual stresses in RSW AZ61 magnesium alloy. Thermophysical and thermomechanical properties of AZ61 magnesium alloy have been experimentally determined, and have been used in FE model to increase the accuracy of the model.

    Effect of Residual Stresses on Wave Propagation in Adhesively Bonded Multilayered MEMS Structures

    M. Kashtalyan1,2, Y.A. Zhuk3

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.57, No.1, pp. 1-30, 2010, DOI:10.3970/cmes.2010.057.001

    Abstract The paper investigates propagation of stationary plane longitudinal and transverse waves along the layers in adhesively bonded multilayered structures for MEMS applications in the presence of residual stresses. The multilayered structure is assumed to consist of the infinite amount of the periodically recurring layers made of two different materials possessing significantly dissimilar properties: conductive metal layer and insulating adhesive layer. It is assumed that the mechanical behaviour of both materials is nonlinear elastic and can be described with the help of the elastic Murnaghan potential depending on the three invariants of strain tensor. The problem is formulated in the framework… More >

    Analysis and Prediction of Multi-Heating Lines Effect on Plate Forming by Line Heating

    Adan Vega1, Sherif Rashed2, Yoshihiko Tango3, Morinobu Ishiyama3, Hidekazu Murakawa2

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.28, No.1, pp. 1-14, 2008, DOI:10.3970/cmes.2008.028.001

    Abstract Experimental observations have shown that the inherent deformation produced by multi-heating lines is not a simple addition of the inherent deformation produced by single heating lines. Therefore, to accurately predict inherent deformation, the method of superposing inherent deformation of single heating lines is not appropriate. To overcome this difficulty, the authors investigate the influence of multi-heating lines on line heating inherent deformation. First, the influence of previous heating lines on inherent deformation of overlapping, parallel and crossing heating lines is clarified. The influence of the proximity to plate side edge on inherent deformation is also taken into account in the… More >

    An Analytical Model for Shot-Peening Induced Residual Stresses

    Shengping Shen1, S. N. Atluri2

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.4, No.2, pp. 75-86, 2006, DOI:10.3970/cmc.2006.004.075

    Abstract To improve the fatigue life of metallic components, especially in aerospace industry, shot peening is widely used. There is a demand for the advancement of numerical algorithms and methodologies for the estimation of residual stresses due to shot peening. This paper describes an analytical model to simulate the shot peening process and to estimate the residual stress field in the surface layer. In this reasonable, convenient, and simple model, no empirical relation is used, and the effects of shot velocity are included. The results of validation of this model against the test data are very good. More >

    A Numerical Study Comparing The Effect on Residual Stresses of Two Different Types of Projectiles During Shot Peening

    J. Solórzano-López1, F.A. García-Pastor2, Angélica Flores-Luna3

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.51, No.3, pp. 203-215, 2016, DOI:10.3970/cmc.2016.051.203

    Abstract Shot peening is a widely used technique to improve fatigue life in metallic alloys. This processing technique introduces a subsurface compressive residual stress field through a plastic deformation of the surface caused by the impact of a large number of high-speed projectiles. There are a number of parameters that affect the residual stress field depth and magnitude. The effects of the impact angle, shot speed and shot geometry are currently being researched. In particular, substituting spherical cast shots by cylindrical cut wire shots is an attractive option, especially in terms of cost. The effect of shot geometry on residual stresses,… More >

    Minimizing Thermal Residual Stress in Ni/Al2O3 Functionally Graded Material Plate by Volume Fraction Optimization

    Xing Wei1,2, Wen Chen1,3, Bin Chen1

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.48, No.1, pp. 1-23, 2015, DOI:10.3970/cmc.2015.048.001

    Abstract The thermal residual stress in the fabrication of functionally graded material (FGM) systems can give rise to various mechanical failures. For a FGM system under a given fabrication environment, the thermal residual stresses are determined by the spatial distribution of its constituent components. In this study, we optimize a Ni/Al2O3 FGM plate aiming at minimizing the thermal residual stresses through controlling its compositional distribution. Material properties are graded in the thickness direction following a power law distribution in terms of the volume fractions of constituents (P-FGM). An analytical model and a hybrid genetic algorithm with the pattern search are employed… More >
