A new computational method based on the J(k)-integral is developed in order to calculate crack tip parameters for functionally graded materials (FGMs) that are subjected to mixed-mode thermal loading. By using the constitutive relations of plane thermoelasticity, J(k)-integral is modified and reduced to a domain independent form that contains area and line integrals. Temperature fields in FGMs and the components of the J(k)-integral are computed by means of the finite element method. In both thermal and mechanical analyses, finite element models are created utilizing special graded isoparametric elements that possess cubic interpolation. Numerical results are generated by considering an embedded crack under steady-state thermal stresses and periodic interface cracks subjected to thermal shock heating. The J(k)-integral approach is validated and domain independence is demonstrated by providing comparisons of the mixed-mode stress intensity factors to those calculated using an enriched finite element technique. Presented results illustrate the influences of material property gradation and crack geometry on the modes I and II stress intensity factors, energy release rate and the T-stress.

Harnessing molecular excited states with Lanczos chains Baroni, Stefano; Gebauer, Ralph; Malcıoğlu, Osman Barış; Saad, Yousef; Umari, Paolo; Xian, Jiawei (IOP Publishing, 2010-02-24) The recursion method of Haydock, Heine and Kelly is a powerful tool for calculating diagonal matrix elements of the resolvent of quantum-mechanical Hamiltonian operators by elegantly expressing them in terms of continued fractions. In this paper we extend the recursion method to off-diagonal matrix elements of general (possibly non-Hermitian) operators and apply it to the simulation of molecular optical absorption and photoemission spectra within time-dependent density-functional and many-body perturbation ...
Computation of thermal fracture parameters for orthotropic functionally graded materials using J(k)-integral Dağ, Serkan; YILDIRIM, BORA (Elsevier BV, 2010-12-15) This article introduces a computational method based on the J(k)-integral for mixed-mode fracture analysis of orthotropic functionally graded materials (FGMs) that are subjected to thermal stresses. The generalized definition of the J(k)-integral is recast into a domain independent form composed of line and area integrals by utilizing the constitutive relations of plane orthotropic thermoelasticity. Implementation of the domain independent Jk-integral is realized through a numerical procedure developed by m...
HYGROTHERMAL FRACTURE ANALYSIS OF ORTHOTROPIC MATERIALS USING J(k)-INTEGRAL Dağ, Serkan; Arslan, Onur; Arman, E. Erhan (2012-01-01) A new computational method based on the J(k)-integral is put forward for the purpose of conducting fracture analysis of orthotropic materials subjected to hygrothermal stresses. By utilizing the constitutive relations of plane orthotropic hygrothermoelasticity, an alternative expression for the J(k)-integral is derived to replace the general limit definition. A numerical procedure is developed and integrated into a finite element analysis software to implement the proposed form of the J(k)-integral. Tempera...
NONLINEARITY, DISSIPATION AND TRANSPORT IN A MOLECULAR TRIMER GULEN, D; BASKAL, S (IOP Publishing, 1993-02-15) This study investigates the effects of dissipation on the quasi-particle transport in a degenerate molecular trimer in which the time evolution is described by the discrete non-linear Schrodinger equation. The standard procedure of introducing dissipation as a phase-destroying stochastic parameter through the corresponding Liouville-von Neumann equation is employed. A dosed second-order integrodifferential equation describing the time evolution of the site occupation probability difference is derived in the...
Pnma metal hydride system LiBH: a superior topological semimetal with the coexistence of twofold and quadruple degenerate topological nodal lines Zhou, Feng; Ding, Guangqian; Cheng, Zhenxiang; Surucu, Gokhan; Chen, Hong; Wang, Xiaotian (IOP Publishing, 2020-08-01) To date, a handful of topological semimetals (TMs) with multiple types of topological nodal line (TNL) states have been theoretically predicted in novel materials. However, their TNLs are often affected by many factors, such as spin-orbit coupling (SOC) effect, strain, and the extraneous bands near the band crossing points, and therefore, the TNL states cannot be easily verified by experiments. Here, by using first-principles calculations, we report that the Pnma LiBH is a potential TM with twofold and quad...
