Force fields of syndiotactic isoregic PVF crystal have been extracted by optimizing a structure of 2,4,6-trifluoroheptane with ab initio Quantum mechanical method with 6-31G * * basis set, and applied to calculate the structure parameters and elastic constants of the material. The cell parameters turned out to be 5.205$\AA$, of a axis(chain axis), 8.457$\AA$, of b axis and 4.621$\AA$ of c axis. These parameters are in fair agreement with those of the atactic X-ray structure(5.04$\AA$, 8.57$\AA$, and 4.95$\AA$,respectively). The young's modulus of defect free syndiotactic PVF crystal was computed to be 267 GPa comparable to those of polyvinilidene fluoride(277-293 GPa) and polyethylene(264-337 GPa) crystals. Bulk modulus value obtained at optimum geometry is more than twice greater than that obtained at experimental geometry due to large difference of elastic compliance constant (especially Sgj element) at these two different geometries.

섬유강화 복합재료의 동탄성계수와 감쇠특성을 규명하기 위하여 랜덤하게 분포된 무한 실린더 형상의 산란체를 가진 점탄성 매질내에서 , 축방향으로 분극되어 조화 운동을 하는 탄성파의 전파에 관하여 연구하였다. 다중 산란에 관한 이론으 이용하여 매질내에서의 파동전파 특성을 내포하는 분산관계식을 얻었다. 다중산란에 의한 실린더간의 상호작용을 수식화하기위하여 필요한 실린더의 쌍분포함수는 몬테카를로 모의 실험을 이용하여 구하였다. 수치적으로 구한 감쇠계수 및 유효전단강성을 주파수와 체적율의 함수로 제시하였다. 또한 감쇠계수의 주파수에 따른 변화에 있어서, 저주파에서는 매질의 점탄성 손실이 지배적이며, 고주파수로 갈수록 다중산란에 의한 손실이 지배적인 것으로 나타났다.

Poisson's ratio, one of elastic constants of elastic solids, has not attracted attention due to its narrow range and difficult measurement. Transverse wave velocity as well as longitudinal wave velocity should be measured for nondestructive measurement of Poisson's ratio. Rigid couplants for transverse wave is one of obstacle for scanning over specimen. In the present work, a novel measurement of Poisson's ratio distribution was applied. Immersion method was employed for the scanning over the specimen. Echo signals of normal beam longitudinal wave were collected, and transverse wave modes generated by mode conversion were identified. From transit time of longitudinal and transverse waves, Poisson's ratio was determined without the information of specimen thickness. Poisson's ratio distribution of the carbon steel weldment was mapped. Heat affected zone of the weldment was clearly distinguished from base and filler metals.

Generally, the structural material shows rate dependent behaviors, which require to constitute different strain-stress relations according to strain rates. Conventional rate- independent constitutive equations used in general purpose finite analysis programs are inadequate for dynamic finite strain problems. In this paper, a rate dependent constitutive equation for elastic-plastic material was developed. The plastic stretch rate was modeled based on slip model with dislocation velocity and density so that there is no yielding condition, and no loading conditions. Non-linear hardening rule was also introduced for finite strain. Material constants of present constitutive equation were determined by experimental data of mild steel. The constitutive equation was applied to uniaxile tension. It was appeared that the present constitutive equation well simulates rate dependent behaviors of mild steel.

In this paper the path independent $J_{k}$(k=1, 2) integrals are evaluated in a rectilinear anisotropic body for two dimensional case. The relationship among elastic constants are examined. Using those relationship the expression of $J_{2}$ Integral in terms of $K_{I}$ is found to be very simple.e.e.

Equation of equilibrium is derived and solved for an infinite isotropic solid under applied hydrostatic stress which is uniform at large distance, and disturbed by a spherical precipitate which has isotropoc elastic constants dirrerent form those of the matrix. A linear strain hardening behavior of the matrix is assumed, and an elasto-plastic sloution is obtained. The difference of the total strain energy stored inthe infinite solid with and without a precipitate is computed, and compared with that for purely elastic case. Finally the effect of the ratio of the bulk modulus of the precipitate to that of the matrix and the effct of linear strain hardening rate on the plastic zone size and the energy difference are discussed.

Poisson's ratio is one of elastic constants of elastic solids. However, it has not attracted attention due to its narrow range and difficult measurement. Transverse wave velocity as well as longitudinal wave velocity should be measured for nondestructive measurement of Poisson's ratio. Hard couplant for transverse wave prevents transducer from scanning over specimen. In the present work, a novel measurement of Poisson's ratio distribution was proposed. Immersion method was employed for the scanning over the specimen. Echo signals of normal beam longitudinal wave were collected. Transverse wave modes generated by mode conversion were identified. From transit time of longitudinal and transverse waves, Poisson's ratio can be determined without information of specimen thickness. This technique was demonstrated for aluminum and steel specimens.

The effective Young’s modulus of a microfibril surrounded by water may be simply calculated by using the upper (Voigt) and lower (Reuss) bounds, which is one way to estimate the Young’s modulus in composite materials. The Steered Molecular Dynamics (SMD) has been used for estimating the Young’s modulus of a microfibril surrounded by water. In this paper, the result estimated by the upper (Voigt) and lower (Reuss) bounds shows 9.2% to 21.8% discrepancy from the result estimated by SMD, but introducing “efficiency of reinforcement parameter” removes the discrepancy and shows good agreement with the result estimated by SMD. We found the best fit for the Young’s modulus against the size of the gap between microfibrils. Also the steps using these bounds are much simpler than SMD.

When a commercial prealloyed Fe-powder(Fe-5Cr-lMo-2Cu-0.5P-3C) is liquid phase sintered at 116$0^{\circ}C$, liquid precipitates with various shapes form within solid grains during the initial stage of sintering. The shape of a liquid precipitate changes pith the increment of their size from sphere(with radius<0.3$\mu\textrm{m}$), a transient polyhedron with more than 7 faces(1~2 $\mu\textrm{m}$), cuboid(3~5 $\mu\textrm{m}$), and finally to sphere(>5 $\mu\textrm{m}$). The shapes of liquid precipitates closely resemble the growth shapes predicted on the basis of solid-liquid interfacial energy and the coherency strain energy with anisotropic elastic constants in the diffusion zone around the precipitates.

In this study, Pasternak foundation model, which is a two parameter foundation model, is used to analyze the behavior of laterally loaded beams embedded in semi-infinite media. Total potential energy variation of the system is written to formulate the problem that yielded the required field equations and the boundary conditions. Shear force discontinuities are exposed within the boundary conditions by variational method and are validated by photo elastic experiments. Exact solution of the deflection of the beam is obtained. Both foundation parameters are obtained by self calibration for this particular problem and loading type in this study. It is shown that, like the first parameter k, the second foundation parameter G also depends not only on the material type but also on the geometry and the loading type of the system. On the other hand, surface deflection of the semi infinite media under singular loading is obtained and another method is proposed to determine the foundation parameters using the solution of this problem.
