Based on mineral components and the creep experimental studies of Three Gorges granite and Beishan granite from different regions of China at various temperatures, the strength and creep property of two types of granites are compared and analyzed. Considering the damage evolution process, a new creep constitutive model is proposed to describe the creep property of granite at different temperatures based on fractional derivative. The parameters of the new creep model are determined on the basis of the experimental results of the two granites. In addition, a sensitivity study is carried out, showing effects of stress level, fractional derivative order, and the exponentm. The results indicate that the proposed creep model can describe the three creep stages of granite at different temperatures and contribute to further research on the creep property of granite.

In order to study the creep behavior of the surrounding rock of Hengda coal mine in Fuxin under different temperatures, the triaxial creep test of sandstone is carried out by the MTS815.02 test system. The relationship between damage variables and temperature is constructed based on the Weibull distribution of the meso-probability voxel intensity. Aiming at the nonlinear characteristics of rock creep, a nonlinear viscous pot element and a nonlinear spring element are proposed. The two linear viscous pot elements and one linear spring element in the Nishihara model can be replaced separately. Thus, an unsteady parameter creep model is established. The comparison between the Nishihara model curve and the model and the experimental curves in this article has been added to the article. Furthermore, the superiority of this model can be proved. The results show that the established variable-time aging creep model not only can describe the rock attenuation creep and stable creep deformation characteristics but also can make up for the shortcomings of the traditional creep model that cannot describe the accelerated creep characteristics. Moreover, it predicts the development law of creep deformation well. The model is in good agreement with the test curve, which shows the correctness and rationality of the model. It has guiding significance for actual engineering support and prediction of long-term deformation of surrounding rock.

Ligaments and tendons serve a variety of important functions in the human body. Many experimental studies have focused on understanding their mechanical behavior, mathematical modeling has also contributed important information. This paper presents a brief review of viscoelastic models that have been proposed to describe the nonlinear and time-dependent behavior of ligaments and tendons. Specific attention is devoted to quasi-linear viscoelasticity (QLV) and to our most recent approach, the single integral finite strain model (SIFS) which incorporates constitutive modeling of microstructural change. An example is given in which the SIFS model is used to describe the viscoelastic behavior of a human patellar tendon.

ABSTRACTAccurate Debye-Waller (DW) factors of chemically ordered β-NiAl (B2, cP2, ${\rm{Pm}}\bar 3 {\rm{m}}$) have been measured at different temperatures using an off-zone axis multi-beam convergent beam electron diffraction (CBED) method. We determined a cross over temperature below which the DW factor of Ni becomes smaller than that of Al of ~90K. Additionally, we measured for the first time DW factors and structure factors of chemically ordered γ1-FePd (L10, tP2, P4/mmm) at 120K. We were able to simultaneously determine all four anisotropic DW factors and several low order structure factors using different special off-zone axis multi-beam convergent beam electron diffraction patterns with high precision and accuracy. An electron charge density deformation map was constructed from measured X-ray diffraction structure factors for γ1-FePd.

This study aims at comparing the permanent deformation of Stone Mastic Asphalt (SMA) rubberized asphalt mixtures produced by the wet process. In this study, rubberized binders were prepared using two different blending methods, namely, continuous blend and terminal blend. To study the creep behaviour of control and rubberized asphalt mixtures, the dynamic creep test was performed using Universal Materials Testing Apparatus (UMATTA) at different temperatures and stress levels. Zhou three-stage creep model was utilized to evaluate the deformation characteristics of the mixtures. In all test conditions, the highest resistance to permanent deformation is showed by the rubberized mixtures produced with continuous blend binders. This study also reveals that the permanent deformation of rubberized mixtures cannot be predicted based on the characteristics of the rubberized binders.

In this study, it was achieved that crosslinking of PVP/GEL nanofibers with two-steps. Crosslinking is a process highly important for water-soluble polymers in terms of application areas and mechanical properties. Firstly, crosslinking of PVP polymers experimental studies were carried out via heat treatment at different temperatures and times. Then, GEL polymers were crosslinked with GTA vapour at different times. Morphological analysis was carried out via SEM images and chemical characteristics were determined via FT-IR analysis. Moreover, after the crosslinking process, SD and WL values were calculated. All results showed that before crosslinking of SEM images, nanofibers were smooth, fine and without beads. The average fiber diameter is 196 nm and the fiber diameter distribution is quite uniform. After crosslinking of SEM images, it is expected that all nanowebs will turn from fibrous surfaces to membranous. Generally, SD and WL values decrease with crosslinking time increase. According to all of the SEM images, SD and WL values, optimum conditions were determined for PVP as 4 hours at 180oC and for GEL as 24 hours. Lastly, the presence of PVP and GEL polymers in the nanofiber structure was verified chemically with FT-IR analysis.

A rock creep constitutive model is the core content of rock rheological mechanics theory and is of great significance for studying the long-term stability of engineering. Most of the creep models constructed in previous studies have complex types and many parameters. Based on fractional calculus theory, this paper explores the creep curve characteristics of the creep elements with the fractional order change, constructs a nonlinear viscoelastic-plastic creep model of rock based on fractional calculus, and deduces the creep constitutive equation. By using a user-defined function fitting tool of the Origin software and the Levenberg–Marquardt optimization algorithm, the creep test data are fitted and compared. The fitting curve is in good agreement with the experimental data, which shows the rationality and applicability of the proposed nonlinear viscoelastic-plastic creep model. Through sensitivity analysis of the fractional order β2 and viscoelastic coefficient ξ2, the influence of these creep parameters on rock creep is clarified. The research results show that the nonlinear viscoelastic-plastic creep model of rock based on fractional calculus constructed in this paper can well describe the creep characteristics of rock, and this model has certain theoretical significance and engineering application value for long-term engineering stability research.

Viscoelastic constitutive relationships incorporating fractional derivatives have been previously shown to be extremely useful in describing the frequency dependent behavior of common damping materials. However, the implementation of such models in the analysis of damped mechanical systems is somewhat complicated by the fact that polynomial equations with noninteger order exponents must be solved. This paper develops accurate approximations from which the damping factor and damped natural frequency of such systems may be obtained by evaluating relatively simple algebraic expressions.

In the current investigation, numerical study of a thermal jet of asymmetric (rectangular and elliptical) and axisymmetric (circular) geometry was investigated with variable density to verify the impact of the ratio of density and geometry on the generation of entropy. The central jet was brought to different temperatures (194, 293 and 2110 K) to obtain density ratios (0.66, 1 and 7.2) identical to a mixture jet ((Air-CO2), (Air-Air) and (Air-He)), respectively. Solving the three-dimensional numerical resolution of the Navier Stocks for turbulent flow permanent enclosed on the turbulence model K-εstandard was made. The results acquired are compared with that carried out in previous experimental studies, where it was concluded that, the axisymmetric (circular) geometry increases the entropy generation.

Heat transformation based on reversible chemical reactions has gained significant interest due to the high achievable output temperatures. This specific type of chemical heat pump uses a reversible gas–solid reaction, with the back and forward reactions taking place at different temperatures: by running the exothermic discharge reaction at a higher temperature than the endothermic charge reaction, the released heat is thermally upgraded. In this work, we report on the experimental investigation of the hydration reaction of strontium bromide (SrBr2) with regard to its use for heat transformation in the temperature range from 180 °C to 250 °C on a 1 kg scale. The reaction temperature is set by adjusting the pressure of the gaseous reactant. In previous experimental studies, we found the macroscopic and microscopic properties of the solid bulk phase to be subject to considerable changes due to the chemical reaction-. In order to better understand how this affects the thermal discharge performance of a thermochemical reactor, we combine our experimental work with a modelling approach. From the results of the presented studies, we derive design rules and operating parameters for a thermochemical storage module based on SrBr2.

Viscoelastic dampers are one of the most popular earthquake mitigation devices for building structures with a large number of applications in civil engineering. The seismic performance of viscoelastic dampers is greatly affected by viscoelastic materials. The present paper addresses the theoretical and experimental studies of the viscoelastic damper. The regular polyhedron chain network models for viscoelastic materials are proposed based on the molecular chain network microstructures and the temperature–frequency equivalent principle. Several dynamic property tests for the viscoelastic damper at different temperatures, frequencies, and displacements are carried out, and the proposed models are verified by comparing the numerical and experimental results. The comparisons show that the viscoelastic damper has perfect energy dissipation capacity, and the regular polyhedron chain network models can well describe the mechanical properties of the viscoelastic damper at different environmental temperatures and excitation frequencies.
