    Notes: The value of in situ monitoring to study growth dynamics and surface reaction kinetics in a gas source molecular beam epitaxy process is illustrated with reference to the growth of Si films on Si(001) substrates using a beam of disilane (Si2H6). By using a combination of reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED) and reflection anisotropy spectroscopy (RAS), we show first how morphological (long-range order) and local electronic structure effects can be separated in the evaluation of growth dynamics. This involves the measurement of step density changes by RHEED concomitantly with the variation in domain coverage on the Si(001) (2×1)+(1×2) reconstructed surface by RAS. This approach is then extended to investigate the kinetics of hydrogen desorption, which is the rate-limiting step in Si growth from Si2H6. It is shown that over a significant temperature range, zeroth-order kinetics are obeyed and this is explained on the basis of a step-mediated desorption process. Finally we show how this influences the growth rate on substrates of differing degrees of vicinality. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Matrix-size interactions in epoxy-glass fibers composites in relation to mechanical relaxations and effects of thermal aging (1995)

    Notes: A study was carried out to examine the effect of removing the size from the surface of glass fibers in order to determine its role with respect to thermoxidative aging. Dynamic mechanical relaxation data have revealed that mechanical losses were always greater than the calculated upper bound values. The effects of removing the size from the surface glass fibers for epoxy matrix composites were found to be completely different when a fluoroligomer was used to modify the resin. Contrary to the case of the conventional epoxy resin, the characteristics of the composites containing fluoroligomer-modified resin were found to be insensitive to the removal of the size from the glass fibers surface. The presence of the size on the surface of the fibers provides an interlayer that degrades through the formation of more lightly crosslinked products than the matrix, thereby providing a large increase in dynamic mechanical losses after thermal aging. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Mechanisms of carbon dioxide laser stereolithography in epoxy-based materials (1996)

    Notes: We present in this article the use of infrared laser radiation to achieve localized curing in thermosensitive epoxy resin compounds. In stereolithography, the objective is to cure a localized region in a material by precisely confining the laser energy to the area that is to be cured. Industry already uses ultraviolet laser radiation at 352 nm to fabricate three-dimensional structures. Via infrared laser curing, we demonstrate the viability of a completely thermal localized curing process. In our experiment, we have focused the beam from a carbon dioxide (CO2) laser onto a sample composed of epoxy resin, diethylene triamine, and silica powder. Such resins typically cure, or solidify, when heated to moderately high temperatures, and our results show that we can confine the heating of the material, and, therefore, its curing in all three dimensions. We present a physical and a chemical model to describe the process and measure the curing rate as a function of temperature. In order to model the flow of heat in our sample as a result of infrared laser irradiation, we solved the time-dependent heat equation in cylindrical coordinates using the Crank-Nicholson finite-difference method. The results allow us to predict the curing behavior of the sample as a function of laser irradiation conditions, and we find good agreement with our preliminary experimental observations. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: In the paper a semi-analytic approach for solving dynamic response problems is developed which is based on Gurtin's convolution-type variational principle. A finite element discretization in the space domain and a series representation in the time domain are considered. This approach overcomes the shortcomings of existing methods yet utilizes their advantages for solving dynamic response problems. The example of a beam shows that this new approach is a very effective method in obtaining solutions for dynamic response problems. The paper also concentrates on utilizing time domain series for various boundary conditions, so that solutions calculated by this approach have a very high accuracy and efficiency.

    Notes: Optically active isotactic polychloral was prepared in which the optical activity comes exclusively from molecular asymmetry (i.e., helical conformation). Molecular asymmetry requires a high conformational energy barrier for the polymer backbone, and an asymmetric initiator to induce a predominance of one helical screw-sense. Polychloral meets the criteria. Asymmetric initiators used to obtain optically active polychloral include tetramethyl ammonium (+)- or (-)-0-acetylmandelate, tetramethylammonium (+)- or (-)-0-methylmandelate, the lithiumalkoxides of methyl (+)- or (-)-mandelate, lithium cholesten-3β-oxide, lithium cholestan-3β-oxide, and lithium (+)- or (-)-2-octanoxide. Using the above initiators at 0.5 mol %, a maximum specific rotation of [α] D25 = 5000 was obtained for polychloral. Errors in specific rotation were typically ±7%.

    Notes: A six-node plate bending element has been developed by employing mixed formulation based on a modified Hellinger-Reissner principle and the Reissner-Mindlin plate bending theory. The numerical result indicates that, among the types of assumed independent transverse shear strains considered, a combination of 2α version with either 5α version or 6α version is free of spurious kinematic modes and leads to accurate and reliable solutions even for very thin plates.

    Notes: The non-linear field-boundary-element technique is applied to the analysis of snap-through phenomena in thin shallow shells. The equilibrium path is traced by using the arc-length method and the solution strategy is discussed in detail. The results show that, as compared to the approaches based on the popular symmetric-variational Galerkin finite element formulation, the current approach based on an unsymmetric variational Petrov-Galerkin field-boundary-element formulation gives a faster convergence while using fewer degrees of freedom. The illustrative numerical examples deal with post-buckling responses of several shallow shells with different geometries.

    Notes: Accorsi has recently proposed a general method for modelling microstructural material discontinuities in a finite element analysis. In this work, it is shown that his method can be significantly simplified. In particular, the transformation strain (eigenstrain) plays no role in his application. Numerical results based on the simplified equations with 8-node and 9-node isoparametric elements are presented for the same examples as in his papers. The accuracy of the results is examined in comparison with the solution obtained from a complex mesh model.

    A hybrid finite element method for heterogeneous materials with randomly dispersed rigid inclusions (1995)

    Notes: A hybrid finite element approach is proposed for the mechanical response of two-dimensional heterogeneous materials with linearly elastic matrix and randomly dispersed rigid circular inclusions of arbitrary sizes. In conventional finite element methods, many elements must be used to represent one inclusion. In this work, each inclusion is embedded inside a polygonal element and only one element is required to represent one inclusion.In numerically approximating stress and displacement distributions around the inclusion, classical elasticity solutions for a multiply-connected region are employed. A modified hybrid functional is used as the basis of the element formulation where the displacement boundary conditions of the element are automatically considered in a variational sense.The accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method are demonstrated by two boundary value problems. In one example, the results based on the proposed method with only 64 hybrid elements (450 degrees of freedom) are shown to be almost identical to those based on the traditional method with 2928 conventional elements (5526 degrees of freedom).

    Notes: Solid-particle motion and related transport phenomena in two-phase flow are fluctuating processes in space and time. A deterministic method can describe only partially the intrinsic physics of these processes. In this paper, the fluctuations of the flow parameters are modelled by considering the spatial correlations, and a probabilistic computational method for two-phase flow is presented. The probabilistic governing equations have been discretized in space using a finite volume method, and then solved by applying the Neumann expansion method. This last method is time efficient, and its convergence can be guaranteed even for large fluctuations. A liquid-solid particle mixture flow in a circular pipe is taken as an example. Computational results illustrate the merit of the probabilistic approach for the prediction of two-phase flow phenomena.
