Abstract The microstructure and mechanical properties of cold rolled titanium with 0.0, 0.1 0.2 wt.% carbon were studied after annealing in a temperature range 500-800 °C. addition resulted slower grain growth kinetics less intensive softening during the alloys Besides, are considerably stronger comparison pure titanium; rolling an increase yield stress from 540 MPa for to 630 605 Ti-0.1C Ti-0....

The blamer softening event has been associated with successful treatment outcomes in emotionally focused couple therapy. Previous research has highlighted the critical role of softening events and heightened emotional experience in best sessions of emotionally focused couple therapy (EFT). This study examined the effects of a therapist's emotional presence in predicting heightened levels of cli...

Pairwise forces between particles in cosmological N-body simulations are generally softened to avoid hard collisions. Physically, this softening corresponds to treating the particles as diffuse clouds rather than point masses. For particles of unequal mass (and hence unequal softening length), computing the softened force involves a nontrivial double integral over the volumes of the two particl...

As the softening constitutive relation of concrete basic fracture properties (softening curve), limited by the current level of experimental techniques, the test methods of softening curve such as direct tension tests and so on are difficult, high cost and different outcomes, so the study is difficult to move forward. In recent years, the inverse analysis study which uses numerical methods to d...

an artificial neural network has been used to determine the volume flux and rejections of ca2+ , na+ and cl¯, as a function of transmembrane pressure and concentrations of ca2+, polyethyleneimine, and polyacrylic acid in water softening by nanofiltration process in presence of polyelectrolytes. the feed-forward multi-layer perceptron artificial neural network including an eight-neuron hidden la...

Polymerized ionic liquids (PolyILs) are promising materials for various solid state electronic applications such as dye-sensitized solar cells, lithium batteries, actuators, field-effect transistors, light emitting electrochemical cells, and electrochromic devices. However, fundamental understanding of interconnection between ionic transport and mechanical properties in PolyILs is far from comp...

A review of the new approach to the understanding of the structural relaxation of metallic glasses based on the Interstitialcy theory has been presented. The key hypothesis of this theory proposed by Granato consists of the statement that the thermodynamic properties of crystalline, liquid and glassy states are closely related to the interstitial defects in the dumbbell (split) configuration, c...

In this paper we describe an adaptive softening length formalism for collisionless N−body and self-gravitating Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) calculations which conserves momentum and energy exactly. This means that spatially variable softening lengths can be used in N−body calculations without secular increases in energy. The formalism requires the calculation of a small additional term...
