ON RING DEFORMATION BY INTERNAL PRESSURE

Numerical Analysis of Severe Plastic Deformation by High Pressure Torsion

High-pressure torsion (HPT) is a metal processing method in which the sample is subjected to a very high plastic shear deformation. This process can produce exceptional levels of grain refinement, and provides a corresponding improvement in mechanical properties. To investigate the stress and strain distribution due to HPT process finite element simulation were conducted to investigate effectiv...

Strain imaging of internal deformation.

A tissue-like gelatin elasticity-flow phantom was examined to develop ultrasonic strain imaging for the detection of internal pulsatile deformations. The same imaging technique was then applied in vivo to monitor deformation in tissues surrounding the normal brachial artery. The results suggest that vascular strain patterns resulting from biologic stimuli are very different from those generated...

The functional outcome of surgically treated unstable pelvic ring fractures by open reduction, internal fixation

 Abstract Background: Unstable Pelvic fracture, a result of high energy antero-posterior compression injury, has been managed based on internal fixation and open reduction. The mode of fixation in Unstable Pelvic fracture has, however, been a subject of controversy and some authors have proposed a need to address the issue of partial breach of the pelvic ring elements in these injuries. This st...

Effect of internal architecture on microgel deformation in microfluidic constrictions.

The study of how soft particles deform to pass through narrow openings is important for understanding the transit of biological cells, as well as for designing deformable drug delivery carriers. In this work, we systematically explore how soft microparticles with various internal architectures deform during passage through microfluidic constrictions. We synthesize hydrogel particles with well-d...
