Atom probe tomography is a time-of-flight mass spectrometry-based microanalysis technique based on the field evaporation of surface atoms of a tip-shaped specimen under an extremely high surface electric field. It enables three-dimensional characterization for deeper understanding of chemical nature in conductive materials at nanometer/atomic level, because of its high depth and spatial resolutions and ppm-level sensitivity. Indeed, the technique has been widely used to investigate the elemental partitioning in the complex microstructures, the segregation of solute atoms to the boundaries, interfaces, and dislocations as well as following of the evolution of precipitation staring from the early stage of cluster formation to the final stage of the equilibrium precipitates. The current review article aims at giving a comment to first atom probe users regarding the limitation of the techniques, providing a brief perspective on how we correctly interprets atom probe data for targeted applications.

The present work demonstrates the mechanical and electrical responses of submicrocrystalline Cu-3%Ag alloy as a function of strain imposed by equal channel angular pressing(ECAP). From transmission electron microscope observation, the resulting microstructures of Cu-3%Ag alloy deformed by ECAP for 8-pass or more consist of reasonably fine, equiaxed grains without having a strong preferred orientation, suggesting that microstructure evolution is slower than that of pure-Al and its alloys owing to low stacking fault energy. The results of room temperature tension tests reveal that, as the amount of applied strain increases, the tensile strength of submicrocrystalline Cu-3%Ag alloy increases whereas losing both the ductility and the electrical conductivity. Such phenomenon can be explained based on microstructure featured by the non-equilibrium grain boundaries.

This paper presents a study of the uniform metal droplet generation using laser. The theoretical model, based on the variational principle instead of solving the Wavier-Stokes equation with moving boundaries, is developed. Our model is considered the Young-Laplace equation and force equilibrium conditions. Surface tension coefficient is determined under the statical condition with induced differential equation by using experimental result. In case of dynamic vibration, metal droplet shape and critical detaching volume are predicted by recalculating of proposed model. The simulation result revealed that the developed model could reasonably describe the molten metal droplet behavior on vibration with metal wire.

The paper deals with the mechanical and electrical responses of submicrocrystalline Cu-3%Ag alloy as a function of strain imposed by equal-channel angular pressing. When inducing the effective strain of 12, the initial grain site of ${\sim}50{\mu}m$ is evidently reduced within the range of $0.2-0.3{\mu}m$ in size, having a reasonably equiaxed shape. The results of tension tests at room temperature exhibit that the tensile strength of the present alloy increases with increasing the amount of strain whereas losing electrical conductivity slightly. This phenomenon can be explained based on fine grained structure together with the non-equilibrium state of grain boundaries.

In gradient-dependent plasticity theory, the yield strength depends on the Laplacian of an equivalent plastic strain measure (hardening parameter), and the consistency condition results in a differential equation with respect to the plastic multiplier. The plastic multiplier is then discretized in addition to the usual discretization of the displacements, and the consistency condition is solved simultaneously with the equilibrium equations. The disadvantage is that the plastic multiplier requires a Hermitian interpolation that has four degrees of freedom at each node. Instead of using a Hermitian interpolation, in this article, a 3-node incompatible (trigonometric) interpolation is proposed for the plastic multiplier. This incompatible interpolation uses only the function values of each node, but it is continuous across element boundaries and its second-order derivatives exist within the elements. It greatly reduces the degrees of freedom for a problem, and is shown through a numerical example on localization to yield good results.

일반적으로 보에 의해서 탄성 지지된 등방성 판은 슬래브교(Slab Bridge)나 거더교(Slab on Girder Bridge)와 같은 교량의 상부구조를 형성하게 된다. 그러나 이러한 탄성 지지된 등방성 판에 대한 해석은 주로 고정 지지된 경계 조건만을 이용하여 이루어 졌으며, 근래에 제시된 해석방법에서도 판 경계의 처짐 형상을 가정하거나 하중 위치를 고정한 상태에서 정해를 유도하므로 탄성지점인 보와 판의 상호관계를 정확하게 묘사하지 못하고 있다. 또한 유한 요소법을 이용한 해석은 정확한 결과를 얻을 수 있는 반면, 많은 해석시간을 요하는 문제점을 안고 있다. 따라서,. 본 연구에서는 조화해석법을 적용하여 보와 등방성 판의 매크로 요소(Macro Element)의 변위 함수를 구성하고, 이를 판의 탄성 지점에서의 평형방정식을 이용해 계산함으로써 단시간 내에 전체 시스템의 응답을 결정할 수 있는 해석법을 개발하고 이를 프로그램화하였다. 또한, 본 해석법의 타당성을 검증하기 위해서 다양한 하중 조건과 판의 형상비, 탄성 지점 조건 등을 가진 교량 바닥판에 대한 해석을 수행하였으며, 해석법의 단순성 과 해석시간의 단축으로 교량 바닥판과 거더에 대한 매개변수 분석 등에 사용될 수 있을 것이다.

This article presents a comprehensive static analysis of simply supported cross-ply carbon nanotubes reinforced composite (CNTRC) laminated nanobeams under various loading profiles. The nonlocal strain gradient constitutive relation is exploited to present the size-dependence of nano-scale. New higher shear deformation beam theory with hyperbolic function is proposed to satisfy the zero-shear effect at boundaries and parabolic variation through the thickness. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs), as the reinforced elements, are distributed through the beam thickness with different distribution functions, which are, uniform distribution (UD-CNTRC), V- distribution (FG-V CNTRC), O- distribution (FG-O CNTRC) and X- distribution (FG-X CNTRC). The equilibrium equations are derived, and Fourier series function are used to solve the obtained differential equation and get the response of nanobeam under uniform, linear or sinusoidal mechanical loadings. Numerical results are obtained to present influences of CNTs reinforcement patterns, composite laminate structure, nonlocal parameter, length scale parameter, geometric parameters on center deflection ad stresses of CNTRC laminated nanobeams. The proposed model is effective in analysis and design of composite structure ranging from macro-scale to nano-scale.

The ARB (Accumulative Rolling Bonding) Process was applied to a 6061 Al alloy to obtain ultra-fine grains. After 4 ARB cycles at $315^{\circ}C$, original equilibrium large grains were transformed to ultra-fine grains of several hundred nano-meter size with nonequilibrium grain boundaries. At lower number of cycles, microsutcture of highly-tangled dislocation cells were observed. Large grains and coarsened precipitates filled the microstructure of specimens experienced ARB cycles more than 5. Sliding wear tests using a pin-on-disk type wear tester were conducted on the ARB processed 6061 Al alloy plate. Wear rates of the 6061 Al alloy increased with the increase of ARB cycle number as well as the applied load. Worn surfaces and debris, cross-sections of the worn specimen were examined with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to investigate the wear mechanism of the ultra-fine grained 6061 Al Tensile properties of the 6061 Al alloy were also studied and used to correlate the wear test results with the microstructures, which evolved continuously with the number of ARB cycles.

This paper investigates the modelling of coupled soil-structure interaction problems by domain decomposition techniques. It is assumed that the soil-structure system is physically partitioned into soil and structure subdomains, which are independently modelled. Coupling of the separately modelled partitioned subdomains is undertaken with various algorithms based on the sequential iterative Dirichlet-Neumann sub-structuring method, which ensures compatibility and equilibrium at the interface boundaries of the subdomains. A number of mathematical and computational characteristics of the coupling algorithms, including the convergence conditions and choice of algorithmic parameters leading to enhanced convergence of the iterative method, are discussed. Based on the presented coupling algorithms a simulation environment, utilizing discipline-oriented solvers for nonlinear structural and geotechnical analysis, is developed which is used here to demonstrate the performance characteristics and benefits of various algorithms. Finally, the developed tool is used in a case study involving nonlinear soil-structure interaction analysis between a plane frame and soil subjected to ground excavation. This study highlights the relative performance of the various considered coupling algorithms in modelling real soil-structure interaction problems, in which nonlinearity arises in both the structure and the soil, and leads to important conclusions regarding their adequacy for such problems as well as the prospects for further enhancements.
