Article Abstract

A macroscopic constitutive model is proposed in this research to reproduce the uniaxial transition ratcheting behaviors of the superelastic shape memory alloy (SMA) undergoing cyclic loading, based on the cosine-type phase transition equation with the initial martensite evolution coefficient that provides the predictive residual martensite accumulation evolution and the nonlinear feature of hysteresis loop. The calculated results are compared with the experimental results to show the validity of the present computational procedure in transition ratcheting. Finite element implementation for the self-loosening behavior of the superelastic SMA bolt is then carried out based on the proposed constitutive model to analyze the curves of stress-strain responses on the bolt bar, clamping force reduction law, dissipation energy change law of the bolted joint for different external loading cases, and preload force of the bolt.

To address the growing demand for temperature control precision and uniformity in wafer processing, a specialized electrostatic chuck temperature control system based on thermal control coatings is proposed, aiming to enhance thermal management robustness and homogeneity. This study employs a zoned control methodology using metal-oxide conductive coatings on silicon carbide wafer heating plates. A quadrant-based thermal control coating model was established, and finite element analysis was conducted to compare temperature distribution characteristics across three geometric configurations: sectorial, spiral, and zoned designs.

A novel structure of a piezoelectric stick-slip actuator is proposed, which is based on the moving posture of a monkey. The biomimetic monkey type of piezoelectric stick-slip actuator (BMPSSA) is designed to simulate the limbs and tail of a moving monkey. By using the pseudo-rigid body method, the deformation model of the compliant mechanism is established.

Accurate modeling of lung parenchymal biomechanics is critical for understanding respiratory function and improving diagnoses. Traditional hyperelastic models capture tissue deformation but miss essential physiological interactions. This study evaluates an experimentally informed poroelastic model (Birzle's formulation) against hyperelastic-only models within a finite element framework.

As integrated circuit (IC) manufacturing advances toward smaller technology nodes, conventional lithography methods are increasingly challenged by the diffraction-limited resolution, escalating process complexity, and rising costs. Among these challenges, overlays have a particularly pronounced impact on manufacturing quality. To address this issue, this paper proposes a high-order overlay correction model that employs a two-dimensional fifth-order polynomial to accurately fit and characterize the distribution of overlays.

The most significant challenge facing magnesium alloy stents is their ability to withstand complex deformation during their application. To gain a deeper understanding of the impact of stent deformation on the protective capabilities of the coating, this paper presents an amplified stent deformation model. The models were coated with either a low elongation material-Poly(D, L-lactide) (PDLLA) or a high elongation material-Poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT), followed by the application of a rapamycin-loaded PLGA as drug-eluting layer.
