A technique has been developed using the reversing dc electrical potential method to determine the mode of damage taking place during creep-fatigue interaction. It is observed that the hysteresis loop created by plotting the stress verses electrical potential gives a clear indication whether the damage in process is creep dominated or fatigue-dominated. During the fatigue-dominated damage process the hysteresis loop of stress verses electrical potential changes the shape whereas during the creep-dominated damage process the hysteresis loop of stress verses electrical potential does not change the shape but moves in the direction of higher electrical potential values. These changes are observed well before any indication seen on the conventional hysteresis loop of stress verses strain. This identification of the damage mode is observed well before failure occurs. The conclusion has been confirmed through fractographs. Hence it can be said that this technique eliminates the need for fractographs when determining the mode of damage during creep-fatigue interaction.

The procedure of the determination of yield and ultimate strengths of irradiated 2 1/4 Cr-1 M0 steel using small punch specimen (10 mm by 10 mm by 0.5 mm) has been demonstrated. The result was compared with the result obtained from conventional tensile test. Fracture toughness of irradiated 2 1/4 Cr-1 M0 steel was measured by use of subsized CT specimen and D. C. electrical potential method. Owing to irradiation hardening of 2 1/4 Cr-1 M0 steel, yield and ultimate strength increase substantially and fracture toughness decreases 37 percent when the steel is irradiated to a fluence of 3.2 x 1023 n/m2. The small punch and subsized CT specimen can be used for irradiation test so that considerable irradiation space will be saved.

The electrokinetic effects are important in the understanding of electric properties in porous medium. In this study, the streaming potential and streaming current of saturated samples are measured at different concentrations, then three methods are applied to obtain the zeta-potential and electrokinetic coupling coefficient. The study shows that the results obtained from streaming potential and streaming current methods agree well with each other, but the results obtained from simplified streaming potential method become seriously inaccurate at low concentrations due to the influence of surface conductance. This experimental study also provides a reliable estimate of the surface conductivity and its contribution to zeta-potential at given concentrations.

The Schwarz alternating method, along with Muskhelishvili’s complex potential method, is used to calculate the stresses around non-intersecting circular holes in an infinite isotropic plate subjected to in-plane loads at infinity. The holes may have any size and may be disposed in any manner in the plate, and the loading may be in any direction. Complex Fourier series, whose coefficients are calculated using numerical integration, are incorporated within a Mathematica program for the determination of the tangential stress around any of the holes. The stress values obtained are then compared to published results in the literature and to results obtained using the finite element method. It is found that part of the results generated by the authors do not agree with some of the published ones, specifically, those pertaining to the locations and magnitudes of certain maximum stresses occurring around the contour of holes in a plate containing two holes at close proximity to each other. This is despite the fact that the results from the present authors’ procedure have been verified several times by finite element calculations. The object of this paper is to present and discuss the results calculated using the authors’ method and to underline the discrepancy mentioned above.

Chemically modified mesoporous silica material (SBA-15) was used for the construction of Tl(I) selective carbon paste electrode. The best response was found with the electrode containing 10% modifier as electrode material. The electrode has a lower detection limit of 6.0 × 10−9 M in a working concentration range of 1.0 × 10−8–1.0 × 10−1 M. The selectivity coefficient calculated by match potential method (MPM) shows the high selectivity of electrode towards Tl(I) over other tested ions. The electrode was successfully applied as an indicator electrode for the titration of 0.01 M TlNO3solution with standards EDTA solution and for sequential titration of mixture of different anions.

The aim of this paper is to understand the effects of the damage criteria modelling on the training phase (performed by means of Finite Element simulations) of an artificial neural network (ANN) enabled to locate impacts onto a CFRP laminate. The developed FE models have been also used to investigate the intra-laminar damage mode, which, among different ones, has the most effects on the residual strength of the panel.
