The present study intends to provide the photoelastic coefficient and thermal expansion coefficient needed to use an FBG-embedded CFRP rod (smart rod) as strain sensor. Due to the monolithic combination of the FBG sensor with a CFRP rod, the smart rod is likely to exhibit thermal and mechanical properties differing from those of the bare FBG sensor. A tensile test showed that the photoelastic coefficient of the smart rod is 0.204, which is about 7.3% lower than the 0.22 value of the bare optical FBG. Moreover, the thermal expansion coefficient of the smart rod obtained through a thermal test appeared to be negative with a low value of −0.190×10−6/°C. Consequently, the temperature dependence of the smart rod is mainly expressed by means of the thermooptic coefficient. Compared to the bare FBG sensor, the smart rod is easier to handle and can measure compressive strains, which make it a convenient sensor for various concrete structures.

AbstractFine bulk samples of delta-phase Hf hydride with various hydrogen contents (CH) ranging from 1.62 to 1.72 in the atomic ratio (H/Hf) were prepared, and their thermal and mechanical properties were characterized. In the temperature range from room temperature to around 650 K, the heat capacity and thermal diffusivity of the samples were measured and the thermal conductivity was evacuated. The elastic modulus was calculated from the measured sound velocity. The Vickers hardness was measured at room temperature. Effects of CH and/or temperature on the properties of Hf hydrides were discussed. At room temperature, the thermal conductivity values of the Hf hydrides were 23 Wm−1K−1. The Young's and shear moduli and the Vickers hardness of Hf hydride decreased with increasing CH.

Coupled Equations

A technique for determining the in-plane modulus and the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of supported thin films has been developed. The modulus and CTE are calculated by solving two coupled equations that relate the curvature of film samples deposited on two different substrates to the thermal and mechanical properties of the constituents. In contrast with the conventional method used to calculate modulus and CTE, which involves differentiation of the thermal stress in the film, this new technique does not require the differentiation of the thermal stress, and can also provide the temperature-dependence of the in-plane CTE and elastic modulus of supported thin films. The data reduction scheme used for deducing CTE and elastic modulus is direct and reliable.

Thermal Changes

This paper focuses on both thermal and mechanical properties of the composite pastes. Heat-treatment was carried out at temperatures up to 105 and 900 °C for 6h, respectively. Thermal conductivity of the specimens enriched with 3 wt% nanoSiO2 was approximately 60% higher than that of pure paste. Volume heat capacity of the composite pastes displayed 28% increase. Moreover, the composite pastes contributed to ~25% improvement of compressive strength. XRD, and TG-DSC were employed to investigate the cause of physical and thermal changes in the heated specimens.

<div> <div> <div> <p>We report a systematic study of the thermal and mechanical properties of 134 pure SiO2 zeolites through DFT-based calculations by making use of the quasi-harmonic approximation (out of a total of 242 known fully ordered zeolitic frameworks). The comparison of our results with reported experimental data for several zeolites revealed a very good accuracy and validated our simulation methodology. We observe a wide range of thermal expansion coefficients (from −5 to −35 MK−1), highlighting the great influence of the framework topology over this physical property, while demonstrating that all pure-silica zeolites exhibit negative thermal expansion (NTE). Our simulations also provide a path for the computation of the bulk modulus for each structure, as well as its pressure and temperature dependence. Results revealed a large gamut of bulk modulus values (from 8 to 134 GPa), showing that most frameworks display pressure-induced softening — but not all! Finally, this study provides some hints to the open question of experimental feasibility of zeolitic frameworks, showing that the experimentally synthesized structures appear to have a distinct distribution of thermal and mechanical properties. </p> </div> </div> </div>

Most materials expand when heated, which can lead to thermal stress and even failure. Whereas thermomiotic materials exhibit negative thermal expansion, the creation of materials with near-zero thermal expansion presents an ongoing challenge due to the need to optimize thermal and mechanical properties simultaneously. The present work describes the preparation and properties of polymer–ceramic composites with low thermal expansion. Ceramic scaffolds, prepared by freeze-casting of low-thermal-expansion Al2W3O12, were impregnated with poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA). The resulting composites can have a coefficient of thermal expansion as low as 2 × 10−6 K−1, and hardness values of 4.0 ± 0.3 HV/5 (39 ± 3 MPa) and 16 ± 3 HV/5 (160 ± 30 MPa) parallel and perpendicular to the ice growth, respectively. The higher hardness perpendicular to the ice growth direction indicates that the PMMA is acting to improve the mechanical properties of the composite.

Geopolymers are prepared by alkali solution-activated natural minerals or industrial waste materials, which have been widely used as new sustainable building and construction materials for their excellent thermal and mechanical properties. The thermal and mechanical properties of geopolymers at high temperature have attracted great attention from many researchers. However, there are few systematic works concerning these two issues. Therefore, this work reviewed the thermal and mechanical behaviors of geopolymers at high temperature. Firstly, the thermal properties of geopolymers in terms of mass loss, thermal expansion, and thermal conductivity after high temperature were explained. Secondly, the mechanical properties of residual compressive strength and stress-strain relationship of fly ash geopolymers and metakaolin geopolymers after high temperature were analyzed. Finally, the microstructure and mineralogical characteristics of geopolymers upon heating were interpreted according to the changes of microstructures and compositions. The results show that the thermal properties of geopolymers are superior to cement concrete. The geopolymers possess few mass loss and a low expansion ratio and thermal conductivity at high temperature. The thermal and mechanical properties of the geopolymers are usually closely related to the raw materials and the constituents of the geopolymers. Preparation and testing conditions can affect the mechanical properties of the geopolymers. The stress-strain curves of geopolymer are changed by the composition of geopolymers and the high temperature. The silicon-type fillers not only improve the thermal expansion of the geopolymers but also enhance mechanical properties of the geopolymers. But, they do not contribute to reducing the thermal conductivity. the different raw materials, aluminosilicate precursor and reinforcement materials, result in different geopolymer damage during the heating. However, phase transitions can occur during the process of heating regardless of the raw materials. The additional performance enhancements can be achieved by optimizing the paste formulation, adjusting the inner structure, changing the alkali type, and incorporating reinforcements.

Object oriented finite element analysis (OOF2) is used to estimate the thermal and mechanical properties of WC– Al 2 O 3 composites. In the present work, five compositions of 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50% Al 2 O 3 (by volume) are studied. Young's modulus, thermal conductivity and thermal expansion coefficient are estimated using OOF2 and compared with other known analytical methods. Stress and strain contours are plotted to study the thermal and mechanical behavior of composites. It is found that the stresses are largely concentrated at the interfaces of the WC– Al 2 O 3 phases.
