Strain rate dependence for evolution of steady state grain sizes: Insights from high-strain experiments on ice
2019
Abstract Understanding of the microstructural evolution and equilibrium grain size development during steady state tertiary flow is essential in order to improve our knowledge of ice and rock deformation. This contribution presents results from in situ transmitted light deformation experiments of natural glacier ice, with the development of the microstructure in a tertiary flow regime. We conducted one relative slower ( 1 × 10 − 6 1/s) and two relative faster-strain rate ( 2 × 10 − 6 1/s) pure shear experiments at −10 °C, up to a shortening of ∼57%. Microstructure development was followed by time-lapse observations, and two new microstructure-based indicators, the ‘seeding rate’ and the ‘mi…
The transition from single layer to foliation boudinage: A dynamic modelling approach
2012
Abstract Foliation boudinage is a deflection of foliation in the vicinity of a central discontinuity in foliated rocks, mostly filled with vein material. It shows evidence for brittle deformation and void-opening during ductile flow. We used a two-dimensional visco-elastic spring model based on a discrete element approach to study the dynamic development of foliation boudinage and the behaviour of anisotropic visco-elastic material deformed under pure shear conditions. The anisotropies are set by defining rheological heterogeneities in the models with (1) a single layer in a weaker matrix; (2) multi-layers with different elastic properties and (3) random-distributed “micas”, rows of horizon…
Deformation of melt-bearing systems—insight from in situ grain-scale analogue experiments
2005
Abstract The deformation behaviour of partially molten rocks was investigated using in situ analogue experiments with norcamphor+ethanol, as well as partially molten KNO 3 +LiNO 3 . Three general deformation regimes could be distinguished during bulk pure shear deformation. In regime I, above ca. 8–10 vol.% liquid (melt) fraction ( ϕ bulk ), deformation is by compaction, distributed granular flow, and grain boundary sliding (GBS). At ϕ bulk ϕ bulk (regime III), grains form a coherent framework that deforms by grain boundary migration accommodated dislocation creep, associated with efficient segregation of remaining liquid. The transition liquid fraction between regimes I and II ( ϕ LT ) dep…
Linear Viscoelasticity of Liquid-Crystalline Polymers
2004
A linear (small-amplitude) periodic shear deformation of anisotropic viscoelastic liquids obeying the Akay–Leslie rheological model is considered. The frequency dependences of the real and imaginary components of the complex shear modulus and complex normal-stress coefficient are determined. A comparison between calculation results and test data on the shear flow of poly(γ-benzylglutamate) in m-cresol is carried out. It is stated that, if the material is characterized by some initial orientation, both components of the complex shear modulus contain a multiplier which depends on the degree of the initial orientation and increases the values of the components compared with those for an initia…
Crystallographic preferred orientation development by dissolution–precipitation creep
2000
Abstract Crystallographic preferred orientations (CPOs) in deformed rocks are commonly interpreted as resulting from crystal plastic deformation mechanisms, where deformation is achieved by the movement of dislocations. In this paper we investigate the possibility of CPO-development by dissolution–precipitation creep or pressure solution. A numerical model is presented, which simulates the development of a grain aggregate that deforms by reaction-controlled dissolution–precipitation creep. Grains are simulated as rectangular boxes that change their shape by growth, or dissolution of their surfaces, depending on the normal stresses acting on the individual surfaces. Grains can also rotate du…
A new displacement-based framework for non-local Timoshenko beams
2015
In this paper, a new theoretical framework is presented for modeling non-locality in shear deformable beams. The driving idea is to represent non-local effects as long-range volume forces and moments, exchanged by non-adjacent beam segments as a result of their relative motion described in terms of pure deformation modes of the beam. The use of these generalized measures of relative motion allows constructing an equivalent mechanical model of non-local effects. Specifically, long-range volume forces and moments are associated with three spring-like connections acting in parallel between couples of non-adjacent beam segments, and separately accounting for pure axial, pure bending and pure sh…
Torsional shear strength and elastic properties of adhesively bonded glass-to-steel components
2020
Nowadays glass is widely used in building applications and coupled to steel through adhesive joining. Reliable mechanical characterization of these joints is necessary to design and predict the final structure performance.In this framework, the aim of this paper is to measure the pure shear strength and elastic modulus for design and modelling of adhesive joined glass-to-steel structures.Torsional shear strength and elastic properties of an adhesively bonded glass-to-steel component were measured on several joined steel-to-steel and steel-to-glass samples.An epoxy resin-based adhesive was used as joining material for AISI304 steel and soda-lime glass.The same steel and adhesive were used to…
1988
An apparatus for turbidimetric measurements of demixing temperatures under shear flow is presented, and the results of experiments with trans-decahydronaphthalene/polystyrene (TD/PS) solutions, investigating molecular weights ranging from 100 kg/mol to 1770 kg/mol, are compared with viscometric data. It is found that the sign and magnitude of shear effects depend on molecular weight (Mw), polymer concentration (c2), and shear rate (). For the first time, it was possible to study a solution which exhibits shear dissolution at low shear rates but shear demixing at high shear rates.
