.... Thermal contact resistance during the first few milliseconds of impact was obtained by matching measured surface temperature variation with an analytical solution of the one-dimensional transient heat conduction equation. An analytical model of the deformation of a free liquid surface in contact...

... behavior and geometry of the melt pool in the laser material interaction process. The evolution of the melt pool and effects of the process parameters are investigated through the simulations with stationary and moving laser beam cases. The roles of the convection and surface deformation on the heat...

...D. Y. Tzou, James C. Dowell Professor, Fellow ASME; J. E. Beraun; J. K. Chen The hot-electron blasting model is extended in this work to describe the ultrafast deformation in thin metal films during the sub-picosecond to picosecond domain. The driving force exerting on the cold metal lattices...

... shrinkage, and interface deformation. The model allows for anisotropic solid-phase thermal conductivity, characteristic of nonlinear optical materials, as well as conduction in the ampoule wall, and conduction and convection in the liquid. The interface shape is determined as part of the solution...

... will not accept plastic or elastic-plastic deformation, but ruptures just as soon as it reaches its linear elastic limit. Glass follows Hooke’s law and its modulus of elasticity depends on its composition, as reported in Table 3 . The compressive resistance in glass is very good; traction resistance can’t...

...S. L. Lee, Professor, Mem. ASME; C. R. Ou In this paper, the integration scheme is employed to solve a coupling problem of transient heat conduction and displacement due to thermal deformation. Based on the resulting displacement, gap or contact pressure on the interface of two thermoelastic bodies...

...S. C. Chen; D. G. Cahill; C. P. Grigoropoulos The nanosecond pulsed laser-induced transient melting and miniature surface deformation of Ni-P hard disk substrates has been investigated experimentally. A photothermal displacement method has been developed to detect the transient melting and surface...
