Diquark correlations in hadron physics: Origin, impact and evidence
2020
The last decade has seen a marked shift in how the internal structure of hadrons is understood. Modern experimental facilities, new theoretical techniques for the continuum bound-state problem and progress with lattice-regularised QCD have provided strong indications that soft quark+quark (diquark) correlations play a crucial role in hadron physics. For example, theory indicates that the appearance of such correlations is a necessary consequence of dynamical chiral symmetry breaking, viz. a corollary of emergent hadronic mass that is responsible for almost all visible mass in the universe; experiment has uncovered signals for such correlations in the flavour-separation of the proton's elect…
Dificultades para Codificar, Relacionar y Categorizar Problemas Verbales Algebraicos: dos estudios con estudiantes de secundaria y profesores en form…
2014
En resolución de problemas verbales por transferencia, la activación de problemas ya conocidos que sirvan de guía, depende de las analogías percibidas entre éstos y el problema a resolver. Se desarrollan dos estudios relacionados para analizar en qué características se basan los estudiantes para codificar problemas y detectar sus analogías, en tareas de categorización (sorting). Se utilizaron técnicas cuantitativas y cualitativas combinadas. Primero se analizó cómo los estudiantes de secundaria son influidos por diferentes variables características de problemas de ciencias. Una gran proporción de sujetos no fue capaz de percibir las analogías y diferencias adecuadas entre problemas. El segu…
Strength prediction of a triaxially braided composite
2011
The architecture of textile reinforcement affects the deformation and failure behavior of the textile reinforced composites. This paper presents an approximate method that incorporates the in-plane periodic meso structure of the textile composite in finite element models. In this approach, the representative unit cell (RUC) of a textile composite is divided into sub-cells. Instead of obtaining a homogeneous equivalent, these sub-cells are idealized and represented with laminates of different layups using shell elements. In this way, an RUC can be constructed with a small number of elements. This method holds the promise of creating a textile composite FE model with an improved accuracy with…
Effects of fiber orientation of adjacent plies on the mode I crack propagation in a carbon-epoxy laminates
2011
Abstract The influence of ply orientation on the resistance to mode I delamination of multidirectional composite laminates can be assessed by Double Cantilever Beam (DCB) tests. However, one of the difficulties associated with such a study is the change in overall elastic parameters occurring when modifying local ply orientations. The present work uses laminates with special stacking sequences allowing for isolating the orientation parameter. Multidirectional DCB specimens were designed so as to obtain an uncoupled quasi isotropic and quasi-homogeneous elastic behavior, with the same properties for the entire laminate and the two sub laminates separated by the pre crack at mid-plane. The re…
Application of cohesive-zone models to delamination behaviour of composite material
2012
International audience; The parameters of cohesive elements have to be chosen correctly in the simulation of composite delamination by finite element method: such as interface strength, interface stiffness and shape of cohesive law. The purpose of this work is to investigate their influence on the accuracy of the results obtained. A three-dimensional cohesive-zone model has been established using Ls-dyna to simulate Double-Cantilever-Beam mode I (DCB) and Edge-Notched-Flexure mode II (ENF) tests. The influence of these parameters of cohesive element on the maximum load and the slope of load-displacement curve have been discussed by comparing experimental and numerical results. Four traction…
Modelling Polycrystalline Materials: An Overview of Three-Dimensional Grain-Scale Mechanical Models
2014
International audience; A survey of recent contributions on three-dimensional grain-scale mechanical modelling of polycrystalline materials is given in this work. The analysis of material micro-structures requires the generation of reliable micro-morphologies and affordable computational meshes as well as the description of the mechanical behavior of the elementary constituents and their interactions. The polycrystalline microstructure is characterized by the topology, morphology and crystallographic orientations of the individual grains and by the grain interfaces and microstructural defects, within the bulk grains and at the inter-granular interfaces. Their analysis has been until recentl…
Influence of cutting process mechanics on surface integrity and electrochemical behavior of OFHC copper
2014
The authors gratefully acknowledge the support received from IC ARTS and CEA Valduc; International audience; Superfinishing machining has a particular impact on cutting mechanics, surface integrity and local electrochemical behavior. In fact, material removal during this process induces geometrical, mechanical and micro-structural modifications in the machined surface and sub-surface. However, a conventional 3D cutting process is still complex to study in terms of analytical/numerical modeling and experimental process monitoring. So, researchers are wondering if a less intricate configuration such as orthogonal cutting would be able to provide information about surface integrity as close as…
Development and characterization of a bio-based epoxy matrix for high-grade bio-based composites
2019
This study aims to develop 100% bio-based hemp/epoxy composites for semi-structural and structural applications. The thermal and mechanical performances of a 100% bio-based matrix derived from biomassare evaluated and reveal properties in the same order of magnitude as those obtained for polyepoxides based on DGEBA, that means a glass transition temperature of approximately 150°C and mechanical properties in the order of 120MPa for the maximum stress and 3.2 GPa for the tangent apparent modulus. This natural origin matrix is then used for the manufacture of composites reinforced with hemp rovings. The bending properties of these 100% bio-based materials are equivalent to those determined fo…

Fracture of Honeycombs Produced by Additive Manufacturing
2022
Publisher Copyright: © 2021 World Scientific Publishing Europe Ltd. Lattice materials, such as honeycombs, are remarkable in their ability to combine high stiffness, strength and toughness at low density. In addition, the recent and pervasive development of additive manufacturing technologies makes it easier to produce these cellular materials and opens new possibilities to improve their properties by implementing small modifications to their microstructure. Such developments open new opportunities towards the design of new classes of architectured materials. For example, recent computational studies have shown that honeycombs with lattice density gradients have a fracture energy under tens…
