Springer International Publishing AG Elements of Classical Plasticity Theory
Book SynopsisThis monograph provides a compact introduction into the classical, i.e. rate-independent, plasticity theory. Starting from the engineering stress-strain diagram, the concept of elastic and elasto-plastic material behavior is introduced, as well as the concept of uniaxial and multiaxial stress states. Continuum mechanical modeling in the elasto-plastic range requires, in regards to the constitutive equation, in addition to the elastic law (e.g. Hooke’s law), a yield condition, a flow rule and a hardening rule. These basic equations are thoroughly introduced and explained for one-dimensional stress states. Considering three-dimensional plasticity, different sets of stress invariants to characterize the stress matrix and the decomposition of the stress matrix in its hydrostatic and deviatoric part are introduced. Furthermore, the concept of the yield condition, flow rule and hardening rule is generalized for multiaxial stress states. Some typical yield conditions are introduced and their graphical representation in different stress spaces is discussed in detail. The book concludes with an introduction in the elasto-plastic finite element simulation of mechanical structures. In the context of numerical approximation methods, the so-called predictor-corrector methods are used to integrate the constitutive equations. This is again introduced in detail based on one-dimensional stress states and afterwards generalized to the three-dimensional case.

Springer International Publishing AG Lectures on Phase Field
Book SynopsisThis open access textbook fills a gap, in that it introduces readers to the theory and applications of the Phase-Field technique. Phase Field, over the years, has emerged as a standard tool for materials research, just as the Finite-Element technique has in structure mechanics. Whereas the few existing textbooks on this topic are intended for advanced readers, this one is made accessible to the widest possible audience, through an engaging, lecture format. The content grows out of a course the authors teach for graduate students at Ruhr-University Bochum. Even readers who may, at first, have no clue at all what a “Phase Field” is and for what it is used, are invited on a journey from general physics of thermodynamics and wave mechanics, through applications in all fields of materials science, up to the central questions of physical being. On this journey all the necessary techniques are detailed, mostly formulated in a mathematical language easily understood by engineers and natural scientists.Table of ContentsIntroduction.- Analytics.- Capillarity.- Temperature.- Concentration,- Multi-phase-field approach.- Stress–strain and fluid flow.- Quantum phase field.- OpenPhase.- OpenPhase examples.

Springer International Publishing AG Characterisation of the Mechanical Properties of
Book SynopsisDuring heat treatment in dairy production, the rapid formation of heat-induced fouling deposits on the plant surface leads to reduced efficiency of heat transfer. Therefore, a regular cleaning process is required to soften the heat-induced protein deposits and then remove them from the plant surface. The mechanical property of the deposits is one of the key issues of the cleaning mechanisms since the non-fractured behaviour dominates the deformation of the fouling layer and the failure behaviour has a great impact on the cohesive removal of fouling deposits. Considering the complicated geometry of fouling deposits and their irregular distribution, indentation experiments were carried out on various kinds of protein deposits. The experimental results reveal the significant influence of the thickness of fouling deposits on their mechanical behaviour and the time-dependent nonlinear behaviour of the deposits.Furthermore, heat-induced whey protein gel was used as the model material for fouling deposits and the non-fractured and fracture behaviour was characterized using compression and wire cutting experiments, respectively. The material parameters identified using the inverse finite element method allow the prediction of fracture behaviour under localized external loads and provide a deeper insight into cohesive removal. To investigate the softening effect during caustic washing, tensile experiments were conducted on chemically treated and untreated whey protein gels. Adequate chemical degradation leads to a softer mechanical response and increased stress relaxation, making whey protein gels more flowable and more resistant to tensile deformation. The experimental results provide useful data on the failure behaviour of chemically treated whey protein gels.Table of Contents1 Introduction 1.1 Motivation 1.2 Aim of the present work 1.3 Outline 2 Background of cleaning in place 2.1 Heat treatment in the dairy production 2.2 Fouling and cleaning in the dairy production 2.2.1 Heat-induced formation of fouling deposits 2.2.2 The use of whey protein for experimental studies 2.2.3 Cleaning process for the fouled heating surface 2.3 The influence factors of cleaning in place 2.4 Cleaning mechanisms on the mechanical properties of protein deposits 3 Mechanical behaviour of heat-induced deposits 3.1 Mechanical behaviour of fouling deposits 3.1.1 Fouling experiments with raw milk and whey protein solution 3.1.2 Realisation of quasi-static and dynamic indentation experiments 3.1.3 Comparison of mechanical responses between milk and whey protein deposits 3.1.4 Influences of heat treatment on the mechanical behaviour of fouling deposits 3.2 Mechanical behaviour of whey protein gel 3.2.1 Gelation of whey protein solution with different heating conditions 3.2.2 Characterisation of fracture behaviour of WPG 3.2.3 Degradation of the WPG samples with NaOH solution 3.2.4 Characterisation of failure behaviour of WPG 4 Constitutive modelling and numerical simulation 69 4.1 Kinematics and balance equations 4.1.1 Kinematics of deformation 4.1.2 Stress tensors 4.1.3 Balance equations 4.2 Constitutive equations for protein deposits 4.2.1 One-dimensional generalised Maxwell model 4.2.2 Three-dimensional visco-hyperelastic model 4.2.3 Parameter identification through inverse finite element method 4.2.4 Application of modelling approaches 5 Conclusion and Outlook

De Gruyter Particle Technology and Textiles: Review of Applications
Book SynopsisFunctionalization of material systems is one of the key developments nowadays in the textile industry, where particles are frequently used to enhance the properties of fibers and to add new functionalities. This book focuses on innovative textile materials and is a perfect guide for professionals in the textile industry and scientists alike. An overview of particle technology is provided before addressing all topics relevant to particle-enhanced textiles, i.e. the properties and application of micro/nanoparticles in textiles, production techniques, safety, as well as regulatory and intellectual property aspects. The book covers the composition and applications of various types of textile fillers, finishings, and microfibers. gives an outlook on future trends and challenges in the research, development, and production of nano- and micro-enabled textiles. The authors of the book, who are leading experts in their fields, address many aspects relevant to the use of particle-enhanced textiles in industrial applications as well as in our daily life. A particular emphasis is put on practical examples of applications and products, safety and sustainability issues and the potential for further innovation. This book should bring inspiration for textile scientists in using particles for improving textiles and further expanding their possibilities of use.
