The longitudinal and shear wave velocities in a polycrystalline sample of magnesium thorium alloy were measured by a pulse transmission technique as a function of temperature. Temperatures ranged from 25 C to about 350 deg C for longitudinal wave measurements and to about 220 deg C for shear measurements. The resulting velocity data were used to calculate various elastic properties of the material, including Young’s modulus, shear modulus, bulk modulus, and Poisson’s ratio. The resulting least squares fits for these data are: Longitudinal velocity, cl = 5.749 − 3.987 × 10−4T − 1.139 × 10−6T2mm/μsec; shear velocity, ct = 3.108 − 1.421 × 10−4T − 2.588 × 10−6T2mm/μsec; bulk modulus, B = 3.576 × 10″ − 2.744 × 107T + 1.187 × 105T2 dynes/cm2; Young’s modulus, E = 4.435 × 10″ − 1.415 × 107T = 6.037 × 105T2 dynes/cm2; shear modulus, G = 1.716 × 10″ − 7.994 × 106T − 2.619 × 105T2 dynes/cm2; Poisson’s ratio, σ = 0.293 − 6.459 × 10−6T + 3.392 × 10−7T2.

Ni3Al-based superalloys have excellent mechanical properties which have been widely used in civilian and military fields. In this study, the mechanical properties of the face-centred cubic structure Ni3Al were investigated by a first principles study based on density functional theory (DFT), and the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) was used as the exchange-correlation function. The bulk modulus, Young’s modulus, shear modulus and Poisson’s ratio of Ni3Al polycrystal were calculated by Voigt-Reuss approximation method, which are in good agreement with the existing experimental values. Moreover, directional dependences of bulk modulus, Young’s modulus, shear modulus and Poisson’s ratio of Ni3Al single crystal were explored. In addition, the thermodynamic properties (e.g., Debye temperature) of Ni3Al were investigated based on the calculated elastic constants, indicating an improved accuracy in this study, verified with a small deviation from the previous experimental value.

This study aimed at investigating the effects of the post material properties on the maximum stress in the root and maximum deformation of the restorative system. Effects of material properties of fiber post on the maximum equivalent stress in the root and the maximum deformation of the restorative system were numerically investigated. Results show that the maximum equivalent stress in the root can be decreased by 8.3% and the maximum deformation of the restorative system decreased by 10% compared with corresponding maximum values if changing Young’s modulus, Shear modulus and Poisson’s ratio in the range studied here. The maximum equivalent stress in the root is more sensitive to Young’s modulus and Poisson’s ratio while the deformation of the restorative system is more seriously affected by the Shear modulus of the post material.

The temperature dependence of the mechanical properties of polyvinyl alcohol-based poly n-isopropyl acrylamide (PVA-PNIPAm) hydrogel was studied from the static and dynamic bulk modulus of the material. The effect of the temperature-induced volumetric phase transition on Young’s Modulus, Poisson’s ratio, and the density of PVA-PNIPAm was experimentally measured and compared with a non-thermo-responsive Alginate hydrogel as a reference. An increase in the temperature from 27.5 to 32 °C results in the conventional temperature-dependent de-swelling of the PVA-PNIPAm hydrogel volume of up to 70% at the lower critical solution temperature (LCST). However, with the increase in temperature, the PVA-PNIPAm hydrogel showed a drastic increase in Young’s Modulus and density of PVA-PNIPAm and a corresponding decrease in the Poisson’s ratio and the static bulk modulus around the LCST temperature. The dynamic bulk modulus of the PVA-PNIPAm hydrogel is highly frequency-dependent before the LCST and highly temperature-sensitive after the LCST. The dynamic elastic properties of the thermo-responsive PVA-PNIPAm hydrogel were compared and observed to be significantly different from the thermally insensitive Alginate hydrogel.
