Deadline approaching for abstract submission to SEM 2012 Conference at Costa Mesa, California

Submitted by bouvard_jl on Thu, 10/13/2011 - 04:14

Dear Colleague:

The SEM XII International Congress and Exposition on Experimental and Applied Mechanics will be held at the Hilton Orange County, Costa Mesa, CA, USA on June 11-14, 2012.

I would like to invite you to submit a paper to the session entitled "Viscoelastoplasticity and Damage" sponsored by Time Dependent Materials and Composite Materials Divisions. I am soliciting papers involving time (rate)-dependent constitutive and fracture/failure behavior of materials.

Shot Peened Surface Characterization Using 3D Profilometry

Submitted by NANOVEA on Wed, 10/12/2011 - 18:29

Shot peening is a process by which a substrate is impacted with round metal, glass or ceramic beads, also known as shot, at a force intended to create plasticity on the surface. The characteristics present prior to and after the peening process provides vital information to better the understanding and control of the process. Among many others, surface roughness and dimple coverage area left by the shot, are of particular interest using a profilometer.

Viscoelastic Analysis With Nanoindentation DMA

Submitted by NANOVEA on Tue, 10/11/2011 - 17:11

nanoindentation

viscoelasticity

Viscoelasticity can be studied using Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA) during Nanoindentation. By applying controlled oscillatory stress the resulting strain can easily be measured. An elastic material will have stress and strain in phase while a viscous-elastic material will have strain lagging stress. In many applications during quality control and R&D, it is important to reliably test this behavior.
