This paper describes a development of a new method (: Cantilever Method) to measure Young’s modulus of flexible materials. The method is based on a nonlinear deformation theory that takes into account large deformation behaviors. A set of testing devices was designed and machined. Measurements were carried out on two kinds of flexible materials (PVC: a high-polymer material and SWPA: a steel material). The modulus measured by this method is “Secant modulus”. The results of my evaluation confirm that the new method is suitable for flexible thin plates or rods. Based on the assessments made the method can be further applied to thin sheet and fiber materials (e.g., steel belt, glass fiber, carbon fiber, optical fiber, etc.).

Analytical Expressions

The subject of this paper is nonlinear vibrations of beams, strings (defined as beams with very thin uniform cross sections), plates and membranes (defined as very thin plates) without initial tension. Such problems are of great current interest in minute structures with some dimensions in the range of nanometers (nm) to micrometers (μm). A general discussion of these problems is followed by finite element method (FEM) analyses of beams and square plates with different boundary conditions. It is shown that the common practice of neglecting the bending stiffness of strings and membranes, while permissible in the presence of significant initial tension, is not appropriate in the case of nonlinear vibrations of such objects, with no initial tension, and with moderately large amplitude (of the order of the diameter of a string or the thickness of a plate). Approximate, but accurate analytical expressions are presented in this paper for the ratio of the nonlinear to the linear natural fundamental frequency of beams and plates, as functions of the ratio of amplitude to radius of gyration for beams, or the ratio of amplitude to thickness for square plates, for various boundary conditions. These expressions are independent of system parameters—the Young’s modulus, density, length, and radius of gyration for beams; the Young’s modulus, density, length of side, and thickness for square plates. (The plate formula exhibits explicit dependence on the Poisson’s ratio.) It is expected that these results will prove to be useful for the design of macro as well as micro and nano structures.

Complete Homogenization

FeAl20Si20 (wt.%) powders prepared by mechanical alloying from different initial feedstock materials (Fe, Al, Si, FeAl27) were investigated in this study. Scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and nanoindentation techniques were used to analyze microstructure, phase composition and mechanical properties (hardness and Young’s modulus). Finite element model was developed to account for the decrease in measured values of mechanical properties of powder particles with increasing penetration depth caused by surrounding soft resin used for embedding powder particles. Progressive homogenization of the powders’ microstructure and an increase of hardness and Young’s modulus with milling time were observed and the time for complete homogenization was estimated.
