Strain and Elastic Modulus01:15

Strain and Elastic Modulus

9.1K
The quantity that describes the deformation of a body under stress is known as strain. Strain is given as a fractional change in either length, volume, or geometry under tensile, volume (also known as bulk), or shear stress, respectively, and is a dimensionless quantity. The strain experienced by a body under tensile or compressive stress is called tensile or compressive strain, respectively. In contrast, the strain experienced under bulk stress and shear stress is known as volume and shear...

Relation between Poisson's ratio, Modulus of Elasticity and Modulus of Rigidity01:15

Relation between Poisson's ratio, Modulus of Elasticity and Modulus of Rigidity

607
Deformation occurs in axial and transverse directions when an axial load is applied to a slender bar. This deformation impacts the cubic element within the bar, transforming it into either a rectangular parallelepiped or a rhombus, contingent on its orientation. This transformation process induces shearing strain. Axial loading elicits both shearing and normal strains. Applying an axial load instigates equal normal and shearing stresses on elements oriented at a 45° angle to the load axis.

Dynamic Modulus of Elasticity of Concrete01:16

Dynamic Modulus of Elasticity of Concrete

1.0K
The dynamic modulus of elasticity assesses how a concrete structure deforms under impact or dynamic loads. It is typically higher than the static modulus of elasticity, measured under slow, steady loading conditions.
The sonic test is a common method to determine the dynamic modulus. In this test, a concrete beam, sized either 6 x 6 x 30 inches or 4 x 4 x 20 inches, is clamped at its center. Vibrations are initiated at one end of the beam by an electromagnetic exciter unit powered by a...

The Nucleosome Core Particle02:10

The Nucleosome Core Particle

14.6K
Nucleosomes are the DNA-histone complex, where the DNA strand is wound around the histone core. The histone core is an octamer containing two copies of H2A, H2B, H3, and H4 histone proteins.
The paradox
Nucleosomes, paradoxically, perform two opposite functions simultaneously. On the one hand, their main responsibility is to protect the delicate DNA strands from physical damage and help achieve a higher compaction ratio. While on the other hand, they must allow polymerase enzymes to access DNA...

Bulk Modulus01:21

Bulk Modulus

788
The bulk modulus is a scientific term used to describe a material's resistance to uniform compression. It is the proportionality constant that links a change in pressure to the resulting relative volume change.

Fineness Modulus01:19

Fineness Modulus

1.5K
The fineness modulus (FM) of aggregate is a numerical index that measures the coarseness or fineness of the particles. It is calculated by adding the cumulative percentages of aggregate retained on each of a specified series of sieves and dividing the sum by 100.
Consider performing sieve analysis on sand through a set of ASTM sieves. The weight of aggregate retained in each sieve and pan placed at the bottom is recorded, as given in Column B of Table 1.
To determine the fineness modulus of...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

The elastic modulus of indium arsenide/aluminum oxide core-shell nanowires shows unusual thickness-dependent behavior, unlike bulk composites. This is due to atomic structure changes and stress relaxation in the aluminum oxide shell.

  • Materials Science
  • Nanotechnology
  • Mechanical Engineering

Background:

  • Core-shell heterostructures are crucial in nanotechnology.
  • Understanding size-dependent mechanical properties of nanowires is challenging.
  • Bulk composite theories do not always apply to nanoscale materials.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the elastic modulus of crystalline indium arsenide/amorphous aluminum oxide core-shell nanowires.

  • In situ tensile testing within a transmission electron microscope (TEM).
  • Systematic variation of amorphous aluminum oxide shell thickness (10-90 nm).
  • Analysis of atomic/electronic structure and residual stress/strain.

Main Results:

  • Elastic modulus exhibited non-monotonic behavior, peaking at 40 nm shell thickness.
  • Abnormal behavior attributed to decreasing shell elastic modulus with increasing thickness.
  • Atomic/electronic structure changes and residual stress relaxation significantly impact shell modulus.

Conclusions:

  • Size dependency in heterostructured nanowires is driven by structural inhomogeneity and stress.
  • A novel method for estimating shell elastic modulus in core-shell systems was proposed and validated.
  • Consideration of these factors is essential for accurate mechanical property evaluation of nanowires.
