concrete deformation due to temperature and moisture condition will always develop simultaneously and interactively. the environmentally (hygral and thermally) induced stress and deformation are essential to concrete durability. to simulate the deformation of concrete caused by the coupling effect of temperature and moisture, a numerical simulation approach is proposed comprising analytical pro...

superplastic materials show a very high ductility. this is due to both peculiar process conditions and material intrinsic characteristics. however, a number of superplastic materials are subjected to cavitation during superplastic deformation. evidently, extensive cavitation imposes significant limitations on their commercial application. the deformation and failure of superplastic sheet metals...

in the hot compression test friction has a detrimental influence on the flow stress through the process and therefore, correcting the deformation curve for real behavior is very important for both researchers and engineers. in this study, a series of compression tests were simulated using abaqus software. in this study, it has been employed the taguchi method to design experiments by the factor...

A new approach has been introduced to construct deformation-mechanism maps for metals and solid solution alloys. For this purpose two computer programs named DEFOR and GRAPH have been written in BASIC to be run on IBM compatible personal computers. Using these programs, deformation - mechanism maps for a number of pure metals and a solid solution alloy (Ti-6wt% Al) have been plotted and effects...
