“…Finite element simulations were conducted using commercial package ABAQUS to analyze these two deformation modes. Because in a LIB, Al foil tends to crack due to its lowest fracture toughness, the material parameters of Al were used in the analysis, with the surface energy γ 0.868 N/m, elastic modulus E 69 GPa, and Poisson’s ratio ν 0.33 23 24 . The geometry is H = 3 mm, and L = 10 mm to match with the experiments.…”

We have produced stretchable lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) using the concept of kirigami, i.e., a combination of folding and cutting. The designated kirigami patterns have been discovered and implemented to achieve great stretchability (over 150%) to LIBs that are produced by standardized battery manufacturing. It is shown that fracture due to cutting and folding is suppressed by plastic rolling, which provides kirigami LIBs excellent electrochemical and mechanical characteristics. The kirigami LIBs have demonstrated the capability to be integrated and power a smart watch, which may disruptively impact the field of wearable electronics by offering extra physical and functionality design spaces.

Boron compounds are promising candidates for reinforcement of metals because of their high strength and stiffness at low specific weight. For composite fabrication the wetting behavior is important. Isothermal wetting of B 4 C, AlB 2 , CaB 6 , MgB 2 , and TiB 2 by liquid pure aluminum (99.5%) and the alloy AlSi10MgMn is studied at 700 C for 15 min in vacuum using the dispensed drop method. No wetting occurs during testing for all substrates. The contact angles remain constant for CaB 6 , MgB 2 , and TiB 2 , while for AlB 2 and B 4 C substrates a continuous decrease in contact angle value with time is observed. 1884 wileyonlinelibrary.com

Fabrication of Porous Metals with Unidirectionally Aligned Pores by Rod-Dipping Process

et al. 2019

Rod-dipping Process" was developed to simultaneously fabricate and strengthen porous metals with pore with unidirectionally aligned throughout their matrix. Carbon rods were dipped into a molten A6061 alloy, quenched, and processed by equal-channel angular extrusion (ECAE). The rods were subsequently removed, producing the porous metal throughout a metallic matrix. To determine the possibility of using our method to fabricate various porous metals, a theoretical equation was formulated for calculating the volume of hydrostatic pressure required for a molten metal to infiltrate the spaces between rods of various diameters and spaced at various intervals. The primary crystal was isotropic, and no reaction products were formed on the pore surfaces. Therefore, the crystal and pore growth directions could be independently controlled. By introducing an equivalent plastic strain of 1.2, the Vickers hardness values of the samples homogeneously increased to 1.5 times higher than that of the as-cast samples. Consequently, this method enabled us to fabricate porous metals with pore with unidirectionally aligned throughout their matrices and whose pore sizes, positions and volume fractions could be arbitrarily controlled. Furthermore, the metallic matrix could be simultaneously hardened by plastic deformation. [
