    Notes: Abstract The stress fields near the tip of a matrix crack terminating at and perpendicular to a planar interface under symmetric in-plane loading in plane strain are investigated. The bimaterial interface is formed by a linearly elastic material and an elastic power-law creeping material in which the crack is located. Using generalized expansions at the crack tip in each region and matching the stresses and displacements across the interface in an asymptotic sense, a series asymptotic solution is constructed for the stresses and strain rates near the crack tip. It is found that the stress singularities, to the leading order, are the same in each material; the stress exponent is real. The oscillatory higher-order terms exist in both regions and stress higher-order term with the order of O(r°) appears in the elastic material. The stress exponents and the angular distributions for singular terms and higher order terms are obtained for different creep exponents and material properties in each region. A full agreement between asymptotic solutions and the full-field finite element results for a set of test examples with different times has been obtained.

    Notes: Abstract New results on the crack-tip fields in an elastic power-law hardening material under plane stress mode I loading are presented. Using a generalized asymptotic expansion of the stress function, higher-order terms are found which have newly-discovered characteristics. A series solution is obtained for the elastic-plastic crack-tip fields. The expansion of stress fields contains both the $$ r^{t_i } \sigma _{pq}^{(i)} (\theta ;t_i ) $$ and $$ \operatorname{Re} [r^{t_k } \sigma _{rs}^{(k)} (\theta ;t_k )] $$ terms where ti is real and tk is complex; the terms σ(i) pq(θti) and σ(k) rsθtk) are real and complex functions of θ respectively. Comparing the results with that for the plane strain mode I loading shows that: (1) the effect of higher-order solutions on the crack-tip fields is much smaller; and (2) the path-independent integral J also controls the second-order or third-order term in the asymptotic solutions of the crack-tip fields for most of the engineering materials (1 〈 n 〈 11) in plane stress, while the J-integral does not control the second and the third-order terms for the plane strain mode I case for n 〉 3. These theoretical results imply that the crack-tip fields can be well characterized by the J-integral, and can be used as a criterion for fracture initiation under plane stress mode I loading. This is in agreement with existing full-field solutions and experimental data that J at crack growth initiation is essentially independent of in-plane specimen geometry. The comparison confirms the theoretical asymptotic solutions developed in this study.

    Notes: Pirt's model for microbial growth and product formation are reparameterized to obtain multiresponse models with common parameters. The dependent variables in the models are related through the available electron and carbon balance constraints. Covariance adjustment is used to reduce the growth model to a unit variate linear model with covariates. Therefore, standard multiple regression programs can be used to obtain combined point and interval estimates of true biomass energetic yield, true product yield and maintenance coefficient. This approach may yield “better” estimates than the maximum likelihood approach when an appropriately selected subset of covariates is used. Nonlinear estimation procedures are also considered; these procedures are efficient with few responses; however, as the number of responses per observation increase, they may require a lot of computing time. For illustration several data from the biochemical engineering literature are analyzed by the proposed methods.

    Notes: A modified injection molding machine with a compression mechanism, and a mold with a movable wall and shut-off mechanism, were used to investigate the effects of processing parameters on the quality of injection-compression-molded polystyrene disks. The compression start-up time, compression force, melt temperature, and part thickness were selected processing parameters. The disk moldings were evaluated based on dimensional accuracy and birefringence. It is found that the compression start-up time affects packing time, and thus greatly affects the residual orientation. If the transition from packing to compression could start before peak cavity pressure, disks with low residual orientation could be obtained. High compression force improves part quality and reduces thickness. Since both compression-induced reduction and cooling-induced shrinkage are involved, the effects of temperature and thickness are not as straightforward as the trends in conventional injection molding.
