RISQuantitative Infrared Photoelasticity of Silicon Photovoltaic Wafers Using a Discrete Dislocation Model
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Residual stress and crystalline defects in silicon wafers can affect solar cell reliability and performance. Infrared photoelastic measurements are performed for stress mapping in monocrystalline silicon photovoltaic (PV) ...
Evaluation of Micro-Pillar Compression Tests for Accurate Determination of Elastic-Plastic Constitutive Relations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The micro-pillar compression test is emerging as a novel way to measure the mechanical properties of materials. In this paper, we systematically conducted finite element analysis to evaluate the ...
An Elastic-Plastic Spherical Contact Model Under Combined Normal and Tangential Loading
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Spherical contact under combined normal and tangential loading has been investigated by many researchers, and some physically based criteria were proposed to capture the sliding inception, e.g., ...
Orientation Dependent Hardness in As Deposited and Low Temperature Annealed Ti/Ni Multilayer Thin Films
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Strong orientation dependent hardness has been observed in both asdeposited and lowtemperature annealed Ti/Ni multilayer thin films. The anisotropic hardness of asdeposited films is attributed to dominant deformation ...
Constitutive Relations and Parameter Estimation for Finite Deformations of Viscoelastic Adhesives
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We propose a constitutive relation for finite deformations of nearly incompressible isotropic viscoelastic rubbery adhesives assuming that the Cauchy stress tensor can be written as the sum of elastic and viscoelastic ...
Natural Convection Above Fires—An Analytical Solution
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper an analytical solution of the problem of turbulent buoyant plume, in a dry and calm atmosphere with an arbitrary lapse rate variation, is attempted. The results are compared ...
Calculation of the Additional Constants for fcc Materials in Second Strain Gradient Elasticity: Behavior of a Nano-Size Bernoulli-Euler Beam With Surface Effects
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In addition to enhancement of the results near the point of application of a concentrated load in the vicinity of nano-size defects, capturing surface effects in small structures, in the ...
Tensorial Representations of Reynolds-Stress Pressure-Strain Redistribution
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The purpose of the present note is to contribute in clarifying the relation between representation bases used in the closure for the redistribution (pressure-strain) tensor φij , and to construct ...
Interaction Between an Edge Dislocation and a Crack With Surface Elasticity
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We undertake an analytical study of the interaction of an edge dislocation with a finite crack whose faces are assumed to have separate surface elasticity. The surface elasticity on the faces of the crack is described by ...
Instability in Nonlinear Oscillation of Dielectric Elastomers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A membrane of a dielectric elastomer oscillates when subject to AC voltage. Its oscillation is nonlinear due to large deformation and nonlinear electromechanical coupling. Dynamic instability in dielectric elastomers—the ...
