    Wetting of Single Crystalline and Amorphous Silicon Surfaces: Effective Range of Intermolecular Forces for Wetting
    (Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2020) Özçelik, Hüseyin Gökberk; Özdemir, Abdullah Cihan; Kim, Bohung; Barışık, Murat
    Wetting at nanoscale is a property of a three-dimensional region with a finite length into the solid domain from the surface. Understanding the extent of the solid region effective on wetting is important for recent coating applications as well as for both crystalline and amorphous solids of different atomic ordering. For such a case, we studied the wetting behaviour of silicon surfaces at various crystalline and amorphous states. Molecular distributions of amorphous systems were varied by changing the amorphisation conditions of silicon. Semi-cylindrical water droplets were formed on the surfaces to be large enough to remain independent of line tension and Tolman length effects. Contact angles showed up to 38% variation by the change in the atomic orientation of silicon. Instead of a homogeneous solid density definition, we calculated different solid densities for a given surface measured inside different extents from the interface. We correlated the observed wetting variation with each of these different solid densities to determine which extent governs the wetting variation. We observed that the variation of solid density measured inside a 0.13 nm extent from the surface reflected the variation of wetting angle better for both single crystalline and amorphous silicon surfaces.

    The Effect of Cell Wall Material Strain and Strain-Rate Hardening Behaviour on the Dynamic Crush Response of an Aluminium Multi-Layered Corrugated Core
    (Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2021) Güden, Mustafa; Canbaz, İlker
    The effect of the parameters of the Johnson and Cook material model on the direct impact crushing behaviour of a layered 1050 H14 aluminium corrugated structure was investigated numerically in LS-DYNA at quasi-static (0.0048 m s(-1)) and dynamic (20, 60, 150 and 250 m s(-1)) velocities. Numerical and experimental direct impact tests were performed by lunching a striker bar onto corrugated samples attached to the end of the incident bar of a Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar set-up. The numerical impact-end stress-time and velocity-time curves were further compared with those of rigid-perfectly-plastic-locking (r-p-p-l) model. Numerical and r-p-p-l model impact-end stress analysis revealed a shock mode at 150 and 250 m s(-1), transition mode at 60 m s(-1) and quasi-static homogenous mode at 20 m s(-1). The increase of velocity from quasi-static to 20 m s(-1) increased the numerical distal-end initial peak-stress, while it almost stayed constant between 20 and 250 m s(-1) for all material models. The increased distal-end initial peak-stress of strain rate insensitive models from quasi-static to 20 m s(-1) confirmed the effect of micro-inertia. The numerical models further indicated a negligible effect of used material models on the impact-end stress of investigated structure. Finally, the contribution of strain rate to the distal-end initial peak-stress of cellular structures made of low strain rate sensitive Al alloys was shown to be relatively low as compared with that of strain hardening and micro-inertia, but it might be substantial for the structures constructed using relatively high strain rate sensitive alloys.
