Mechanism of Breathing I: Inspiration

3.2K
Introduction to Inspiration: The Respiratory System in Action
The respiratory system, an essential network for breathing, comprises the conducting and respiratory zones, each playing a crucial role in the overall process of respiration. Let us explore the detailed mechanism of inspiration, or inhalation, which is the first phase of the respiratory cycle.
Pathway of Air during Inspiration
During inspiration, air enters our body through the nose or mouth and moves through the conducting zone,...

Ionic Crystal Structures

17.0K
Ionic crystals consist of two or more different kinds of ions that usually have different sizes. The packing of these ions into a crystal structure is more complex than the packing of metal atoms that are the same size.
Most monatomic ions behave as charged spheres, and their attraction for ions of opposite charge is the same in every direction. Consequently, stable structures for ionic compounds result (1) when ions of one charge are surrounded by as many ions as possible of the opposite...

Crystal Growth: Principles of Crystallization

5.0K
Crystallization is a phase transformation process in which crystals are precipitated from a supersaturated solution or formed from other sources. During crystallization, atoms or molecules arrange themselves into a well-defined, rigid crystal lattice to minimize energy.
Initiating crystallization involves manipulating the concentration of the solute and the temperature of the solution. Since crystal growth occurs when the ratio of concentration and solubility of the solute in the solvent...

Crystal Field Theory
To explain the observed behavior of transition metal complexes (such as colors), a model involving electrostatic interactions between the electrons from the ligands and the electrons in the unhybridized d orbitals of the central metal atom has been developed. This electrostatic model is crystal field theory (CFT). It helps to understand, interpret, and predict the colors, magnetic behavior, and some structures of coordination compounds of transition metals.
CFT focuses on...

Crystal Field Theory - Tetrahedral and Square Planar Complexes

48.4K
Tetrahedral Complexes
Crystal field theory (CFT) is applicable to molecules in geometries other than octahedral. In octahedral complexes, the lobes of the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals point directly at the ligands. For tetrahedral complexes, the d orbitals remain in place, but with only four ligands located between the axes. None of the orbitals points directly at the tetrahedral ligands. However, the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals (along the Cartesian axes) overlap with the ligands less than the dxy,...

Members Made of Elastoplastic Material

397
The behavior of elastoplastic materials under bending stresses, particularly in structural members with rectangular cross-sections, is crucial for predicting material responses and understanding failure modes. Initially, when a bending moment is applied, the stress distribution across the section follows Hooke's Law and is linear and elastic. This distribution means the stress increases from the neutral axis to the maximum at the outer fibers, up to the elastic limit.
As the bending moment...

Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Mechanical Engineering
  • Solid Mechanics

Background:

  • Architected materials with periodic node-strut structures offer lightweight designs and unique properties like negative Poisson ratios.
  • Conventional architected materials, using identical unit cells, suffer from catastrophic collapse due to localized stress bands after yielding.
  • This post-yielding collapse is similar to stress drops observed in metallic single crystals during dislocation slip.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop robust and damage-tolerant architected materials.
  • To overcome the limitations of post-yielding collapse in conventional architected materials.
  • To integrate metallurgical hardening principles into the design of architected materials.

Main Methods:

  • Mimicking the microscale structure of crystalline materials, including grain boundaries, precipitates, and phases.
  • Applying hardening mechanisms found in crystalline materials to architected material design.
  • Combining principles from metallurgy and architected materials science.

Main Results:

  • Crystal-inspired mesoscale structures in architected materials are crucial for mechanical properties.
  • The developed architected materials demonstrate enhanced robustness and damage tolerance.
  • The approach enables the design of architected materials with tailored properties.

Conclusions:

  • Architected materials can be made robust and damage-tolerant by mimicking crystalline material microstructures.
  • Integrating metallurgical hardening principles offers a pathway to advanced architected material design.
  • This crystal-inspired approach is as significant for architected materials as crystallography is for metallic alloys.
