Atreya, V. (author)Dual-phase (DP) steels are an important class of advanced high-strength steels (AHSS) and constitute a major share of steels for the automotive industry. A microstructure consisting of hard martensite embedded in a soft ferritic matrix gives them a good combination of strength and ductility. The martensite formation in the microstructure from...doctoral thesis 2023

Li, S. (author), Naeimi, M. (author), He, C. (author), Dollevoet, R.P.B.J. (author), Li, Z. (author)The mechanism of rail short pitch corrugation has remained elusive in the past. The damage mechanisms of the corrugation are reported to be differential wear or plastic deformation. The former has been extensively studied, while the plastic deformation, especially under multiple wheel passages has been seldom studied. To uncover the facts...journal article 2023

Meijers, P.C. (author), Jolink, C. T. (author), Tsouvalas, A. (author), Metrikine, A. (author)To study the irreversible changes in the magnetic stray field surrounding a steel structure caused by impact-induced elastic and plastic deformations, a steel cylinder was repeatedly subjected to axial impacts of various magnitudes. Due to impacts that induce elastic deformation, the measured magnetic stray field of the structure converges to...journal article 2022

Atreya, V. (author), van Dokkum, J.S. (author), Bos, C. (author), Santofimia, Maria Jesus (author)The volume increase and shape change during austenite to martensite transformation in dual-phase (DP) steels are largely accommodated in the microstructure by the deformation of the surrounding ferrite matrix. Accurate estimation of transformation-induced deformation of ferrite via experiments and modeling is essential for predicting the...journal article 2022

Saleh, M. (author), Budzik, Michal K. (author), Saeedifar, M. (author), Zarouchas, D. (author), Teixeira De Freitas, S. (author)Thicker bondlines along with manufacturing-tolerant and fracture-resistant adhesives are trends visible across different industries, especially maritime. In this work, two contrasting adhesives: an elastic-brittle epoxy-based, and a nonlinear-ductile methyl methacrylate (MMA) are characterized and compared via tensile, compact tension (CT)...journal article 2022

Meijers, P.C. (author)Increasing demand for energy from renewable sources has resulted in ambitious plans to construct a large number of offshore wind farms in the coming years. In relatively shallow water depths, the preferred support structure for wind turbines is the steel monopile, which is a thin-walled cylindrical structure. To decrease the cost of the...doctoral thesis 2021

Atreya, V. (author), Bos, C. (author), Santofimia, Maria Jesus (author)During the production of DP steels, the volume expansion and shape change accompanying the austenite to martensite transformation is accommodated by the deformation of surrounding ferrite grains. The extent of the deformation in ferrite grains ultimately affects the mechanical properties of DP steels. Using electron backscatter diffraction...journal article 2021

Socci, Carlo Alberto (author), Kassapoglou, C. (author)A model is described which allows the exact calculation of stresses in a cracked ply under combined state of strain. Closed form expressions for the stresses in each ply are combined in an energy density-based criterion to predict crack spacing and the resulting transverse modulus and shear modulus. Inelastic effects due to non-linearities of...journal article 2020

Zhang, H. (author), Liu, Y. (author), Wang, Lingen (author), Sun, Fenglian (author), Fan, Xuejun (author), Zhang, Kouchi (author)The nanoindentation test was conducted in this paper to investigate the indentation hardness, plasticity and initial creep properties of pressure sintered nanosilver joint at various test temperatures. The effects of strain rate on the indentation hardness were first investigated. Then yield stress of nanosilver sintered joint was studied in...journal article 2019

Deng, X. (author), Li, Z. (author), Qian, Zhiwei (author), Zhai, Wanming (author), Xiao, Qian (author), Dollevoet, R.P.B.J. (author)Weld-induced squats are a major damage type in high-speed railways as well as in conventional railways. They incur high maintenance costs and endanger operational safety. This paper first presents and analyzes five-year continual field monitoring observations and measurements of squats at rail welds. A hypothesis of the formation and development...journal article 2019

Sweers, Korné (author)Thermal oxidation in silicon microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) induces stress in the oxide film and silicon. Such residual stresses are usually unwanted, as it can influence performance or damage components. It can also cause unwanted plastic deformation in silicon, as was observed in previous research. Currentmeasurement methods inMEMSare...master thesis 2018

Jolink, Chris (author)Pile driving can cause plastic deformation to the head of the driven pile, which in turn can lead to connectivity issues when the superstructure is installed. Moreover, plastic deformation reduces the estimated service life of the structure. Therefore, it is necessary to monitor the strain levels during the installation in order to detect if the...master thesis 2018

Meijers, P.C. (author), Tsouvalas, A. (author), Metrikine, A. (author)The use of bolted connections between the tower and a support structure of an offshore wind turbine has created the need for a method to detect whether a monopile foundation plastically deforms during the installation procedure. Small permanent deformations are undesirable, not only because they can accelerate fatigue of the structure; but...journal article 2018

van Gemert, Sander (author)When drilling for oil or gas, wells are typically constructed using a conventional or telescopic well design. After a section of the well has been drilled, a steel casing (or liner) is inserted into the hole preventing the collapse of the hole. The next well section has a smaller diameter as it’s casing must pass through the previously installed...master thesis 2017

Galindo Nava, E.I. (author)This work aims to describe plastic deformation and microstructure evolution of metals at various scales in terms of dislocation behaviour. The theory is based on statistical thermodynamics, where the entropy is proposed to incorporate the possible paths for dislocation motion. Other than estimating the velocity gradients a dislocation may reach,...doctoral thesis 2013

Davoudi, K.M. (author), Nicola, L. (author), Vlassak, J.J. (author)In this paper, dislocation climb is incorporated in a two-dimensional discrete dislocation dynamics model. Calculations are carried out for polycrystalline thin films, passivated on one or both surfaces. Climb allows dislocations to escape from dislocation pile-ups and reduces the strain-hardening rate, especially for fully passivated films....journal article 2012

Kondo, E. (author)The mechanical behaviour of granular materials under high plastic deformation is quite complex due to the fact that the granular assembly consists of discrete or discontinuous non-uniform particles. Each of the particles has its own mechanical behaviour, its micro-properties thus the soil mass behaviour is complex and in some cases the classical...master thesis 2010
