摘要:
Disclosed is a method of assessing a structural defect presence in a structure, the method comprising the steps of: determining at least one critical damage strain value of the structure, capturing a first image of a surface of the structure under a first loading condition; capturing a second image of the surface of the structure under a second loading condition; assigning a position matrix on the captured first image; obtaining a deformation matrix comprising a deformation value at each position of the position matrix by using an image correlation technique on the first and second images, and by comparing deformation of corresponding parts of the surface captured therein; calculating a strain matrix using the obtained deformation matrix; and determining a micro-crack to be present at a position if an element of the strain matrix representing the strain at the position is greater than or equal to a predetermined critical damage strain value, wherein the critical damage strain value is a strain value at which a micro-crack is detected or predicted to appear and/or propagate.

The invention relates to a method for determining the effects of a mechanical force on an object consisting of a solid material, according to which the deformations and stresses caused by the mechanical force at a plurality of points on the object are determined by means of a digital calculation method in an anelastic mode wherein the behaviour of the material is represented by a polycrystalline microscopic behaviour model using a maximum of ten grain blocks, the deformations of said grain blocks being determined from a maximum of six sliding systems, and optionally a maximum of seven grain joint blocks, the deformations of said grain joint blocks being determined from at least one system and a maximum of one hole block having a variable volumic fraction, the plastic deformations of said hole block being purely volumic.

The method involves measuring hydrogen permeation in the tubes by mass spectrometry, wherein the tube is inserted into a high or ultrahigh vacuum device in which a mass spectrometer and a total pressure gauge are located. H2 or H2 and inert gas mixtures are circulated inside the tube at the required partial pressure. The tube is then heated and the appearance of H2 outside the tube is observed. The flow thereof inside the tube and its emergence time, called permeation time, are determined based on permeation curves. The emergence time of the first microcrack is also determined.

Embodiments described herein provide apparatus and a method for simulating a mechanical stress applied to a sealant (206) from a lightning strike upon an aircraft. One embodiment comprises a specimen (204), a test fixture (210), and a capacitor (212). The specimen (204) comprises an electrically non-conductive sealant (206) for an aircraft fuel tank having a cylindrical shape, and an electrically conductive wire (208) centered axially within the sealant (206). The test fixture (210) secures the specimen (204) during testing. The capacitor (212) is electrically coupled to the test fixture (210), and simulates a lightning strike upon the aircraft by vaporizing the wire (208) with a current to generate a mechanical shock to the sealant (206).
摘要:
Using a fracture limit stress line obtained by converting a hole expansion ratio into a stress as a criterion for a fracture, the risk of fracture in a material is evaluated quantitatively by comparing the relationship between data obtained from a numerical analysis using a finite element method and the fracture limit stress line. Thus, when determining a fracture limit in a stretch flange portion in a thin plate in a process including one or more deformation path variations, it is possible to obtain the fracture limit curve easily and efficiently and predict the fracture with high accuracy, and the risk of fracture upon press forming or crash can be evaluated.
摘要:
A method of designing a roller bearing is disclosed upon clarifying mechanisms of damage patterns in respect of two kinds of brinelling, involved in the bearing, wherein white-banded flaking (brittle flaking) is a plastic instability phenomenon appearing under high-speed deformation accompanied by adiabatic shear deformation status with the resultant occurrence of adiabatic shear band (also called white band) inside material of the bearing. This enables all of the damage patterns to be determined upon making comparison between shear strain and shear strain rate, occurring inside the bearing, and discriminated values.

Drop-weight tower (110) for reproducibly initiating a crack in a material sample for fracture mechanics testing comprising a base (120) with a top surface upon which a sample holder (124) is mounted to grip a material sample, an attachment column (140) having a linear rail (142), a carriage (162) attached to the linear rail (142) and a stage (164) is attached to the carriage. The stage (164) includes a vertical rod (184) and a razor-blade holder (178). A weight is slidably mounted to the vertical rod (184). The carriage is used to adjust the height of the stage (164) relative to the material sample. A hammer (180) slides up and down the vertical rod (184) to apply consistent and reproducible force on the razor (178) that then initiates the crack in the material sample.
