Creep-fatigue crack growth behavior in GH4169 superalloy

Dianyin HU, Xiyuan WANG, Jianxing MAO, Rongqiao WANG

Frontiers of Mechanical Engineering 2019, Volume 14, Issue 3, Pages 369-376 doi: 10.1007/s11465-018-0489-7

Abstract: This study aims to examine the crack growth behavior of turbine disc GH4169 superalloy under creep-fatigue loading. Crack growth experiments were performed on compact tension specimens using trapezoidal waveform with dwell time at the maximum load at 650 °C. The crack growth rate of GH4169 superalloy significantly increased with dwell time. The grain boundaries oxidize during the dwell process, thereby inducing an intergranular creep-fatigue fracture mode. In addition, testing data under the same dwell time showed scattering at the crack growth rate. Consequently, a modified model based on the Saxena equation was proposed by introducing a distribution factor for the crack growth rate. Microstructural observation confirmed that the small grain size and high volume fraction of the d phase led to a fast creep-fatigue crack growth rate at 650 °C, thus indicating that two factors, namely, fine grain and presence of the d phase at the grain boundary, increased the amount of weakened interface at high temperature, in which intergranular cracks may form and propagate.

Low-dose CT for lung cancer screening: opportunities and challenges

Hongbing Shen

Frontiers of Medicine 2018, Volume 12, Issue 1, Pages 116-121 doi: 10.1007/s11684-017-0600-1

Abstract:

Lung cancer is among the most frequently diagnosed cancers worldwide and the leading cause of cancer death in both males and females. Screening for lung cancer coupled with earlier intervention has long been studied as an approach to mortality reduction. However, minimal progress was achieved until recently, when low-dose spiral computed tomography (LDCT) screening demonstrated a 20% reduction in mortality from lung cancer in a randomized controlled trial (RCT), the National Lung Screening Trial, from the United States. On the basis of this finding, LDCT has been recommended for lung cancer screening in high-risk populations by several clinical guidelines. However, results from the following independent RCTs in Europe failed to show consistent conclusions. In addition, intractable problems gradually emerged with the progress of LDCT screening. This paper summarizes and discusses the main observations and challenges of LDCT screening for lung cancer. Before spreading implementation of LDCT screening, challenges, including high false-positive rates, overdiagnosis, enormous costs, and radiation risk, must be addressed. Complementary biomarkers and technical improvement are expected in the field of lung cancer screening in the near future.

Effects of delamination in drilling glass/polyester composite

Mehdi GANJIANI, Majid SAFARABADI, Nabi MEHRI-KHANSARI, Hossein ORUJI

Frontiers of Structural and Civil Engineering 2021, Volume 15, Issue 2, Pages 552-567 doi: 10.1007/s11709-021-0699-7

Abstract: Considering failures during machinery processes such as drilling, a precautionary analysis involving delamination and the corresponding dissipated energy is required, especially for composite structures. In this context, because of the complexity of both the analysis procedure and experimental test setup, most studies prefer to represent mode I and III interlaminar crack propagation instead of that involving mode II. Therefore, in this study, the effect of mode delamination and corresponding interlaminar crack propagation was considered during the drilling process of multilayered glass/polyester composites using both numerical and experimental approaches. In the experimental procedure, the mechanical properties of the glass/polyester specimens were obtained according to ASTM D3039. In addition, the interlaminar mixed-mode (I/II) loadings were determined using an ARCAN test fixture so that the fracture toughness of glass/polyester could then be identified. The mode II critical strain energy release rate (CSERR) was then obtained using an experimental test performed using an ARCAN fixture and the virtual crack closure technique (VCCT). It was determined that the numerical approach was in accordance with the experiments, and more than 95% of crack propagation could be attributed to mode II compared to the two other modes.

Effect of strata restraint on seismic performance of prefabricated sidewall joints in fabricated subway stations

Frontiers of Structural and Civil Engineering 2023, Volume 17, Issue 5, Pages 763-779 doi: 10.1007/s11709-023-0917-6

Abstract: A disadvantage of the conventional quasi-static test method is that it does not consider the soil restraint effect. A new method to test the seismic performance of prefabricated specimens for underground assembled structures is proposed, which can realistically reflect the strata restraint effect on the underground structure. Laboratory work combined with finite element (FE) analysis is performed in this study. Three full-scale sidewall specimens with different joint forms are designed and fabricated. Indices related to the seismic performance and damage modes are analyzed comprehensively to reveal the mechanism of the strata restraint effect on the prefabricated sidewall components. Test results show that the strata restraint effect effectively improves the energy dissipation capacity, load-bearing capacity, and the recoverability of the internal deformation of the precast sidewall components. However, the strata restraint effect reduces the ductility of the precast sidewall components and aggravates the shear and bending deformations in the core region of the connection joints. Additionally, the strata restraint effect significantly affects the seismic performance and damage mode of the prefabricated sidewall components. An FE model that can be used to conduct a seismic performance study of prefabricated specimens for underground assembled structures is proposed, and its feasibility is verified via comparison with test data.

Frontiers of Medicine 2007, Volume 1, Issue 2, Pages 142-146 doi: 10.1007/s11684-007-0027-1

Abstract: This study was designed to compare the approaches and efficacies of two different ways of neurosurgical management for spontaneous putaminal hemorrhage (SPH): computed tomographic-guided aspiration (CTGA) and the key-hole approach (KHA). The indications of the two approaches are also explored. From September 2001 to 2003, a total of 1077 cases of SPH distributed in 135 hospitals all over the mainland of China were included for analysis. All cases had three-month follow-up data. The study was designed in a single-blinded manner to compare the efficacies of the different approaches. There were 563 cases in the CTGA group, 165 in the KHA group, and 217 cases in the conventional open craniotomy (COC) group. In the CTGA and KHA groups, the mortalities at one month after operation (M1m) were 17.9% and 18.3%, respectively, while the mortalities at three months after operation (M3m) were 19.4% and 19.4%, respectively (>0.05). The postoperative complications due to CTGA (23.7%) were not significantly different from those due to KHA (25.7%) ( = 0.420). The M3m of patients with Glasgow coma scale (GCS) "d8 was 3.45 and 4.0 times as much as those with GCS>8, respectively. The M3m of patients with complications was 3.92 times as much as those without complications. The M3m of patients with hemorrhage volume "e70 mL was 2.67 times as much as those <70 mL. The CTGA is not better than KHA in the treatment of SPH in terms of a more favorable outcome or less mor tality and morbidity, but CTGA could be the first choice for those with bleeding volumes "d50mL, while KHA is the first choice for those with bleeding volumes >50 mL.

Research on the influence of contact surface constraint on mechanical properties of rock-concrete composite specimens under compressive loads

Frontiers of Structural and Civil Engineering 2020, Volume 14, Issue 2, Pages 322-330 doi: 10.1007/s11709-019-0594-7

Abstract: The contact form of rock-concrete has a crucial influence on the failure characteristics of the stability of rock-concrete engineering. To study the influence of contact surface on the mechanical properties of rock-concrete composite specimens under compressive loads, the two different contact forms of rock-concrete composite specimens are designed, the mechanical properties of these two different specimens are analyzed under triaxial compressive condition, and analysis comparison on the stress-strain curves and failure forms of the two specimens is carried out. The influence of contact surface constraint on the mechanical properties of rock-concrete composite specimens is obtained. Results show that the stress and strain of rock-concrete composite specimens with contact surface constraint are obviously higher than those without. Averagely, compared with composite specimens without the contact surface, the existence of contact surface constraint can increase the axial peak stress of composite specimens by 24% and the axial peak strain by 16%. According to the characteristics of the fracture surface, the theory of microcrack development is used to explain the contact surface constraint of rock-concrete composite specimens, which explains the difference of mechanical properties between the two rock-concrete composite specimens in the experiment. Research results cannot only enrich the research content of the mechanics of rock contact, but also can serve as a valuable reference for the understanding of the corresponding mechanics mechanism of other similar composite specimens.
