    Notes: The oxidation of silicon to form SiO2 is accompanied by large changes in volume. Existing models of silicon oxidation indicate that almost all of this volume change takes place normal to the oxidation front. However, available experimental results clearly indicate that there exists a small component of expansion in the plane of oxidation, leading to what may be termed as intrinsic, in-plane strain in SiO2 films on silicon substrates. We reanalyze the experimental data of Kobeda and Irene (J. Vac. Sci. Technol. B 6, 720, 1986) to estimate this quantity, arriving at a value of approximately 2×10−3. The effect of this intrinsic strain upon the oxide film stresses is then examined for planar and nonplanar oxidation. Implications of these results for standard oxidation prediction schemes are discussed. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Abstract The existence of conservation laws in linear elasticity based upon divergence transformations of the Lagrangian density function is investigated. It is found that there exist a set of conservation laws which correspond to infinitesimal homogeneous perturbations of the strain and velocity fields. These conservation laws have a unique feature not shared by other conservation laws in linear elasticity in that they contain an arbitrary free parameter.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé On considère diverses caractéristiques que présente l'équation dérivée par Hui et Reidel pour la variation angulaire de la fonction de contrainte au voisinage de l'extrémité d'une fissure, qui se propage sous des conditions de déformation stable quasi-statique et anti-planaire dans un matériau soumis à fluages élastique et non-élastique. On montre que la condition de régularité imposée au front de l'extrémité de la fissure par Hui et Reidel est, comme condition aux limites supplémentaires, en fait implicite dans les conditions aux limites dérivées de la physique et qu'elles ne constituent dès lors pas une condition aux limites indépendantes. D'autre part, ces conditions aux limites physiques n'impliquent pas une solution régulière sur le flanc de la fissure. En dépit d'une apparente limitation des conditions limites, l'unicité des solutions positives peut être expliquée par le comportement typique de certaines sortes de problèmes non linéaires d'eigenvalue. On examine en outre le comportement asymptotique de la solution dans le cas de valeurs élevées de l'exposant de la loi de déformation. On montre que la solution n'est pas une solution élastique-parfaitement plastique comme on pourrait le supposer, mais plutôt une solution qui est en bon accord avec les résultats numériques de Hui et Reidel.
    Notes: Abstract We consider several of the features exhibited by the equation derived by Hui and Riedel for the angular variation of the stress function near the tip of a crack propagating under steady-state, quasi-static, antiplane strain conditions in an elastic/power-law creeping material. We show that the regularity condition imposed in front of the crack tip by Hui and Riedel as an extra boundary condition is in fact implicit in the physically derived boundary conditions, and does not therefore constitute an independent boundary condition. On the other hand, these physical boundary conditions do not imply that the solution is regular on the crack flank. Despite an apparent shortage of boundary conditions, uniqueness of positive solutions can be explained as behavior typical of certain kinds of nonlinear eigenvalue problems. We further examine the asymptotic behavior of the solution for large values of the power-law exponent. Here it is shown that the solution is not the elastic-perfectly plastic solution, as might be supposed, but rather a solution which is in good agreement with the numerical results of Hui and Riedel.

    Notes: Abstract We analyze the crack-tip near field for a crack propagating under steady-state, quasi-static, antiplane strain conditions in a viscoplastic material. The constitutive model employed is a state variable model due to Robinson, which displays kinematic hardening characteristics, and which allows for the possibility of elastic unloading. Given a continuity assumption on the state variable components across the loading/unloading boundary, we find that the crack-tip near field is completely uninfluenced by conditions in the remote field. This conclusion is in agreement with earlier analyses in which the possibility of an elastic unloading zone was not admitted.

    Notes: We outline here a finite element technique for the creep of solids whose constitutive equation contains one or more random parameters. In contrast to other finite element techniques for the prediction of random structural response, the present method is based upon exact relations from the theory of probability. It yields, at a given value of time, the probability density function for the field variable of interest, e.g. stress or displacement components. The method is illustrated by a simple creeping beam problem, using a power-law creep constitutive equation. The calculated distributions are found to be highly skewed, and in excellent agreement with the results of Monte Carlo simulation.
