Universal behavior of entanglement entropies in interface CFTs from general holographic spacetimes

In previous work universal behavior was conjectured for the behavior of the logarithmic terms in the entanglement entropy of intervals in 1+1 dimensional interface conformal field theories (ICFTs). These putative universal terms were exhibited both in free field theories as well as a large class of holographic models. In this work we demonstrate that this same behavior in fact is realized in any holographic ICFT, significantly strengthening the case for the conjecture.

Coral loss alters guarding and farming behavior of a Caribbean damselfish

Coral loss is a major element of global ecological change in the oceans that may shape the behavior of keystone species such as habitat-attached animals. Farming damselfishes cultivate and aggressively protect algal garden within their territory, thereby shaping local fish assemblages and macro-algae diversity. Following the widespread loss of live branching coral throughout Florida and the Caribbean Sea, dusky damselfish (Stegastes adustus) have modified their territorial behavior. We compared antagonistic behavior, and size and algal species composition of territories of dusky damselfish on dead branching coral rubble and live boulder coral in the Dry Tortugas National Park, USA. Even though similar numbers of “intruders” entered each habitat type, dusky damselfish on rubble territories chased out significantly more fishes, had larger territories and more species of algae were present in their gardens. This study shows that dusky damselfish successfully occupy living and dead coral areas; however, there are potential trade-offs between defending a larger territory and cultivating fewer algal species.

Intermediate Principal Stress Effects on the 3D Cracking Behavior of Flawed Rocks Under True Triaxial Compression

Crack initiation, growth, and coalescence in flawed rocks have been extensively studied for 2D (planar, penetrating) flaws under uniaxial/biaxial compression. However, little is known as to the mechanisms and processes of cracking from 3D flaws under true triaxial compression, where the intermediate principal stress (σ 2 ) is distinguished from the major and minor principal stresses. In this work, we systematically investigate the effects of σ 2 on the 3D cracking behavior of rock specimens with preexisting flaws, through the use of mechanistic simulations of mixed-mode fracture in rocks. We explore how two characteristics of σ 2 , namely, (i) its orientation with respect to the flaw and (ii) its magnitude, affect two aspects of the cracking behavior, namely, (i) the cracking pattern and (ii) the peak stress. Results show that the orientation of σ 2 exerts more control over the cracking pattern than the flaw inclination angle. The peak stress becomes highest when σ 1 is parallel to the flaw, whereas it becomes lowest when σ 2 is parallel to the flaw. Also, the effects of σ 2 magnitude are more significant when σ 2 becomes more oblique to the flaw plane. On the basis of our observations, we propose mechanisms underlying the cracking behavior of 3D flawed rocks under true triaxial compression.

Oxidation Behavior of Welded Fe-Based and Ni-Based Alloys in Supercritical CO 2

Next-generation supercritical CO 2 (sCO 2 ) power cycles will require different classes of alloy throughout the operational temperatures to optimize tradeoff of creep strength, oxidation performance and cost. This will necessitate joining methods such as welding, which might pose compatibility concerns at the joined interfaces. In this study, similar and dissimilar metal welds were generated from a variety of candidate alloys for sCO 2 systems including ferritic/martensitic steels, austenitic steels, and Ni-based superalloys. Samples were extracted from different regions of the welds and exposed to sCO 2 at 550 °C and 20 MPa for 2500 h, then characterized to understand their behavior in this environment. Unsurprisingly, the local oxidation behavior was largely dictated by the Cr content in the underlying metal. High-Cr austenitic steels and Ni alloys formed slow-growing Cr-rich oxide scales with minimal carburization of the underlying metal, while low-Cr ferritic/martensitic steels formed fast-growing Fe-rich oxide scales with significant carburization. Most welds did not show any unusual oxidation behavior at the interfaces, considering the local Cr content. The one exception was the 347H similar metal weld, where a larger grain size and complex grain structure in the fusion zone led to a significantly higher rate of Fe-rich oxide nodule formation compared to the base metal. This suggests that microstructural changes at joined interfaces can play an important role on the oxidation-limited lifetimes in future sCO 2 systems. The composition changes across the interfaces enabled study of the effect of Fe on the growth rate of Cr-rich oxides and of the origins of the sub-surface recrystallization zone that forms beneath them.

Characterizing Reactive Transport Behavior in a Three-Dimensional Discrete Fracture Network

While several studies have linked network and in-fracture scale properties to conservative transport behavior in subsurface fractured media, studies on reactive transport cases remain relatively underdeveloped. In this study, we explore the behavior of an irreversible kinetic reaction during the interaction of two solute plumes, one consisting of species A and the other species B. When the plumes converge, these species react kinetically to form a new species C via A+B→kC. This reactive system is studied using a three-dimensional discrete fracture network (DFN) model coupled with reactive Lagrangian particle tracking. We find that the interplay of network topology and chemical properties of the reactive solutes controls reactive transport processes. The network topology drives species A and B together, and the chemical properties dictate whether and how quickly a reaction occurs. Results demonstrate that reactions are most likely to occur in high-velocity fractures that make up the network backbone. The interplay between species’ chemical properties and transport is characterized by a non-dimensional Damköhler (Da) number. We show that the spatial distribution of reactions is sensitive to Da, which subsequently influences late-time tailing behavior in outlet breakthrough time distributions. The results of this study provide initial insights into how an irreversible reaction occurs during transport in a fracture network, using a methodology that can be applied to study reactive transport in a wide range of fractured media environments and contexts.

Creep Behavior of a High-$\gamma^{\prime}$ Ni-Based Superalloy Fabricated via Electron Beam Melting

Additive manufacturing enables the fabrication of complex engineering components previously inaccessible through traditional processes. Nickel-base superalloys with large γ' volume fraction are typically considered non-weldable and therefore exhibit a propensity for cracking during the fusion process. These crack-prone materials, however, are of great importance in gas turbine engines due to their excellent high temperature creep resistance. In this study we investigate the creep behavior of IN738LC produced by the electron beam melting process. Here, we find that with appropriate post-build heat treatment the creep response of material oriented in the build direction exhibits deformation and rupture behavior comparable to that of conventionally cast IN738 & IN738LC. In the transverse direction properties fall below the expected cast behavior, however, we argue this is likely due to differences in grain scale and crystallographic texture. It may be possible to coarsen the grain morphology with appropriate process-parameter optimization in order to reduce the severity of intergranular fracture in the transverse direction. These results illustrate that high temperature properties exhibited by additively manufactured IN738LC are suitable for the hot section of gas turbine engines.

The combined effects of hydrogen and aging condition on the deformation and fracture behavior of a precipitation-hardened nickel-base superalloy

The effect of hydrogen (H) on the deformation behavior of Monel K-500 in various isothermal heat treatment conditions (non-aged, under-aged, peak-aged, and over-aged) was assessed via uniaxial mechanical testing. H-charged and non-charged specimens were strained to failure to facilitate a comparison of ductility, fracture surface morphology, strength, and work hardening behavior. For all examined heat treatment conditions, H charging leads to a significant reduction in ductility, which is accompanied by a consistent change in fracture surface morphology from ductile microvoid coalescence to brittle intergranular fracture. While H charging led to a systematic enhancement in the yield strength of all heat treatments, the three age-hardened conditions exhibited a more than 2-fold increase relative to the non-aged heat treatment. This suggests that H modifies the dislocation–precipitate interactions, which also manifest themselves through changes in work hardening metrics related to the dislocation storage and recovery rates. In particular, the H-charged peak-aged specimen exhibited a significant increase in initial hardening (dislocation storage) rate relative to the H-charged under-aged specimen. Transmission electron microscopy of these samples revealed the onset of widespread dislocation looping in the H-charged peak-aged sample, in addition to the planar slip bands characteristic of the non-charged condition. This result suggests that hydrogen induces the particle shearing-to-looping transition at smaller particle sizes. Possible mechanistic explanations for this observed behavior are presented.

Evaluating the grain-scale deformation behavior of a single-phase FCC high entropy alloy using synchrotron high energy diffraction microscopy

We report although the deformation behavior of high-entropy alloys (HEAs) has been extensively studied at the macroscale, many important properties have yet to be explored for these alloys at the microscale, thus hampering accurate prediction of damage and failure processes. Synchrotron high-energy diffraction microscopy (HEDM) and fast-Fourier transform-based crystal plasticity modeling was conducted to investigate the three-dimensional (3D) grain-resolved micromechanical response for approximately 1,900 constituent grains within a single-phase FCC HEA up to 1% applied strain. The evolution of grain-resolved elastic strains, lattice reorientations, and maximum resolved shear stresses (mRSS) were evaluated to quantify elastic, yield, and fully plastic behavior. Overall, the initial critical resolved shear stress (CRSS), determined via in situ HEDM and companion modeling, was found to be > 20% higher than estimated using the classical polycrystalline Taylor factor (M = 3.06). However, a descriptive parameter based on the average grain-resolved Taylor factor ($\overline{M}$) was found to show excellent agreement with plastic yielding behavior observed within HEDM datasets. Noticeable deviations in HEDM lattice reorientations compared to both EVP-FFT simulations and classical predictions for FCC polycrystals were discovered, highlighting the complexity in correlating local lattice reorientations, Taylor, and Schmid factors with plastic response for this material at the grain-scale. Therefore, it is anticipated that the overall trends and parameter identification of 3D grain-resolved properties in this study can serve as an important foundation for continued mesoscale investigation on both well-established and newly developed Cantor-like HEAs.

Deformation and fracture behavior of a laser powder bed fusion processed stainless steel: In situ synchrotron x-ray computed microtomography study

Tensile plastic deformation and fracture behavior of a laser powder bed fusion processed 316L stainless steel alloy was investigated in situ using high-resolution synchrotron x-ray computed microtomography (sXCT). Three different cases were studied: (1) specimen A1, near full-density with initial porosity of 0.04%, (2) specimen B1, initial lack-of-fusion (LOF) porosity of about 3% with the major axis of defects aligned nearly perpendicular to the tensile loading direction (LD), and (3) specimen B, similar to B1 but with the major axis of LOF defects aligned nearly parallel to LD. The effects of type, density, and orientation of defects in as-printed samples on plastic deformation and failure modes were studied by analyzing sXCT image sequences and quantitative defect properties. Specifically, the evolutions of porosity, size, aspect ratio, and angle of gas pores and LOF defects were characterized as a function of applied strain. Moreover, interactions between as-printed defects and deformation-induced crack propagation were investigated. The tensile behavior of specimen A1 was comparable to that of a commercial wrought plate. Furthermore, the quantitative in-situ sXCT results showed a void-growth phenomenon in A1 but without noticeable coalescence, resulting in a ductile cup-cone failure. Specimen B1 showed damage-driven brittle failure with limited plasticity due to early and rapid propagation of open voids. On the other hand, specimen B, with a similar amount of LOF defects as B1, showed deceivingly strong and ductile tensile behavior similar to A1 without any major crack propagations due to the favorable orientation relationship between LOF defects and the LD.

A sensitivity analysis to predict the neutronics behavior of samples irradiated in the VTR rabbit system

We report a low-order neutronics model is developed to carry out hundreds of simulations efficiently and investigate the neutronics behavior of samples being irradiated in a test reactor setting under different geometrical constraints. The low-order model allowed for simulations that yield the expected neutronics behavior of any irradiated sample in any environment and allows for the calculation of highly accurate spatially averaged statistics and idealized spatial distributions in the neutron flux. Several benchmarks are performed to evaluate the performance and limitations of the low-order model revealing many important findings. The low-order model predicted the LHGR in the EBR-II driver fuel to within 2.34% by only simulating the fuel rod by itself, which served as a validation for the model. Sensitivity studies investigated 3% enriched UO 2 and U-10Zr being irradiated in the Versatile Test Reactor rabbit system. The analyses investigated a range of combinations of 15 radii and 5 heights for each sample in the rabbit system. Similar data sets are also provided for irradiations in the Advanced Test Reactor’s B-10 irradiation position, which is a thermal neutron spectrum environment. Generalized fits and fit coefficients are obtained for sample heating, reaction rate densities, and local multiplication rate characteristics, allowing the predictions of the neutronics behavior of the samples based on their geometrical constraints. The analyses and fits laid the groundwork for developing a user-end Multiphysics analysis framework to assist and accelerate irradiation experiment design and optimization.

Autoignition behavior of gasoline/ethanol blends at engine-relevant conditions

Ethanol is an attractive oxygenate increasingly used for blending with petroleum-derived gasoline yielding beneficial combustion and emissions behavior for a range of internal combustion engine schemes, including stoichiometric spark-ignition and low temperature combustion (LTC). As such, it is important to fundamentally understand the autoignition behavior of gasoline/ethanol blends. This work utilizes a rapid compression machine (RCM) and a homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) engine to experimentally quantify changes in fuel reactivity, through ignition delay times and preliminary heat release, for blends of 0 to 30% vol./vol. into a full boiling range research gasoline (FACE-F). Diluted/stoichiometric and undiluted/fuel-lean conditions are explored covering a wide range of compressed temperatures and pressures relevant to conventional and advanced, gasoline combustion engines. Detailed chemical kinetic modeling is undertaken using a recently updated gasoline surrogate model in conjunction with a five-component surrogate to model the RCM experiments and provide chemical insight into the perturbative effects of ethanol on the autoignition process. The diluted/stoichiometric RCM measurements reveal that within the low-temperature regime ethanol retards first-stage and main ignition delay times, and suppresses both the rates and extents of low-temperature heat release (LTHR), while within the intermediate-temperature regime ethanol only causes slight changes. Good agreement of ignition delay time and preliminary heat release prediction is found between model and experimental results. Sensitivity and flux analyses further show that ethanol blending effects are dominated by the competition between the H-atom abstraction from ethanol and other fuel components by OH radical at low temperatures and by HO 2 radical at intermediate temperatures. These findings are consistent across both fuel loading conditions explored in this study. In addition, when HCCI engine experiments are mapped onto undiluted/lean RCM measurements under a constant combustion phasing scenario, good correspondence between the two apparatuses is observed for LTHR and start of high-temperature heat release. Finally, the current study highlights the importance of characterizing LTHR in predicting fuel behaviors in high-boost/low-temperature engines, and demonstrates that RCM experiments can provide an alternative, and more-efficient avenue for such characterization.

From anti-Arrhenius to Arrhenius behavior in a dislocation-obstacle bypass: Atomistic simulations and theoretical investigation

Dislocations are the primary carriers of plasticity in metallic materials. Understanding the basic mechanisms for dislocation movement is paramount to predicting the material mechanical response. Relying on atomistic simulations, we observe a transition from non-Arrhenius to Arrhenius behavior in the rate of an edge dislocation overcoming the long-range elastic interaction with a prismatic loop in tungsten. Close to the critical resolved shear stress, the process shows a non-Arrhenius behavior at low temperatures. However, as the temperature increases, the activation entropy starts to dominate, leading to a traditional Arrhenius-like behavior. Here, we have computed the activation entropy analytically along the minimum energy path following Schoeck’s method, which captures the cross-over between anti-Arrhenius and Arrhenius domains. Also, the Projected Average Force Integrator (PAFI), another simulation method to compute free energies along an initial transition path, exhibits considerable concurrence with Schoeck’s formalism. We conclude that entropic effects need to be considered to understand processes involving dislocations bypassing elastic barriers close to the critical resolved shear stress. More work needs to be performed to fully understand the discrepancies between Schoeck’s and PAFI compared to molecular dynamics.

The impact of behavioral and geographic heterogeneity on residential-sector carbon abatement costs

Analyses of monetary and emissions savings from residential efficiency upgrades usually neglect behavioral differences between consumers. Variations in behavior are frequently large: 13% of the U.S. population sets thermostats for cooling at 20 °C (68 °F) or lower and 15% at 25.5 °C (78 °F) or higher. Efficiency analyses should account for behavioral heterogeneity as well as variations in climate and housing characteristics. We model energy and economic savings of efficiency upgrades for U.S. single-family detached houses, accounting for differences in thermostat settings, climate zone, fuel prices, and home characteristics. We consider five efficiency interventions: wall insulation, attic insulation, air sealing, high-efficiency furnaces, and high-efficiency air conditioners. Energy and economic savings vary widely by consumer; the average net present value for wall insulation is $3,020 United States Dollar (USD), but considering heterogeneity, it has a 10th percentile value of -$231 and 90th percentile value of $5,000. Neglecting heterogeneity, technology upgrades can be prioritized from lower to higher carbon abatement costs: air conditioners, wall insulation, furnace, air sealing, and attic insulation. Accounting for heterogeneity reorders this prioritization, and consumer-specific conditions affect mitigation costs such that technologies are mixed in with one another and are no longer arranged one after another. These results indicate that interventions to improve efficiency should consider differences between consumers.

Parameterization of generic positive sequence models to represent behavior of inverter based resources in low short circuit scenarios

The connection of large inverter based resources (IBR) in transmission systems is often located geographically and electrically far away from load centers. This, coupled with the displacement of synchronous machine plants, results in a reduction of the network short circuit strength at the point of connection. Under these conditions, state-of-the-art positive sequence simulation platforms and models can have difficulties maintaining numerical stability and/or providing an accurate representation of IBR plant dynamic behavior. As a result, computationally heavy time domain electromagnetic transient (EMT) simulations may be required to evaluate these systems. In this paper, a recently developed improved generic positive sequence model is parameterized to provide a representation of IBR behavior in low short circuit networks. Further, comparisons against generic and detailed EMT models demonstrate the suitability of the improved positive sequence model to study practical stability issues experienced with presently in-service plants. Such a model can provide some of the accuracy of an EMT representation with a much lower computational burden. The performance of the positive sequence model is validated against the behavior shown by both open white box and closed black box EMT domain models from around the world.

Regimes of evaporation and mixing behaviors of nanodroplets at transcritical conditions

The objective of this paper is to examine the fundamental mechanisms responsible for the transition between subcritical evaporation and supercritical dense-fluid-mixing in the absence of convection effects, specifically focusing on the liquid–vapor interfacial dynamics. To isolate the dynamics of this transition process, we characterize the different physical behaviors exhibited by an -dodecane nanoscale droplet placed in different nitrogen ambient conditions across the fuel’s critical point. We employ a continuum-based interface-resolving diffuse-interface method to explore the underlying phase-exchange mechanisms that bring about such distinct dynamics. Following the comparison against molecular dynamics simulations and experiments of evaporating droplets and experimental data for vapor–liquid equilibria, a parametric study at various ambient conditions and droplet sizing is performed to identify four regimes of evaporation/mixing behaviors: sub- and supercritical droplet evaporation, and sub- and supercritical dense-fluid-mixing. It is shown that the distinction in the phase-exchange mechanisms in these four regimes are brought about by the different thermodynamic phases the droplet center can exhibit during the evaporation/mixing process: subcritical liquid, supercritical liquid-like, subcritical gaseous, and supercritical gas-like, respectively. It is shown that the subcritical dense-fluid-mixing behavior is a direct result of nanoconfinement of the liquid–vapor interfacial structure and thus is not present for large droplet sizes. Finally, the present study also shows that the supercritical phase-exchange dynamics can follow two different pathways: supercritical droplet-like evaporation and supercritical dense-fluid-mixing. Furthermore, promoting the early transition to supercritical dense-fluid-mixing can significantly expedite the phase-exchange process through the disintegration of the liquid-like droplet core.

An investigation into the effects of cyclic strain rate on the high cycle and very high cycle fatigue behaviors of wrought and additively manufactured Inconel 718

Additive Manufacturing (AM) has increasingly been used to fabricate parts in aerospace applications, which may require service lives beyond ten-million cycles due to the imposed high loading frequencies. Understanding the very high cycle fatigue (VHCF) behavior of these additive manufactured (AM) parts is an important step towards their design and qualification processes. This study focuses on the high cycle fatigue (HCF) and VHCF behaviors of both wrought and laser beam-powder bed fusion (LB-PBF) fabricated Inconel 718 in machined/polished surface condition, emphasizing on the influence of test frequency (i.e., cyclic strain rate). Uniaxial, fully-reversed force- and stress-controlled fatigue tests were conducted utilizing a servo-hydraulic and an ultrasonic test system operating at 5 Hz and 20 kHz, respectively, on wrought as well as LB-PBF vertically and diagonally built specimens. Fatigue cracks in the majority of the specimens were found to initiate from intra-granular slip bands near or at the surface, which gives rise to strong anisotropy in fatigue resistance in LB-PBF specimens due to the presence of columnar grains along the build directions. Longer fatigue lives were obtained at 20 kHz, which was ascribed to possibly lower-than-intended stresses applied in the ultrasonic tests. The corrected stress-life fatigue data at 20 kHz were found to converge to the one obtained from conventional testing at 5 Hz, implying no effect of cyclic strain rate on the fatigue behavior of Inconel 718 regardless of the fabrication process. The findings of this work confirm the use of ultrasonic fatigue testing to expedite generation of AM materials data to keep up with the current demand; however, the applied stress may need to be corrected.

A Eulerian three-fluid flow framework for the study of fuel dispersal behavior under loss-of-coolant accident conditions

As the nuclear industry explores new fuel designs to accommodate increased burnup, studying fuel behavior during loss-of-coolant accidents is essential for ensuring the safe operation of light-water reactors. Here, this study presents a computational model to simulate the intricate three-phase flow dynamics of fuel dispersal following cladding breach, where solid fuel particles and carrier fission gases interact with the surrounding liquid or gas medium. The model utilizes a Eulerian three-fluid framework to depict the phase interaction within interpenetrating continua, treating fragmented fuel as granular material. Closure relationships for bulk-flow properties of the solid phase and detailed interfacial exchange terms in high-temperature, high-speed gas-solid-liquid flow scenarios are proposed. The model was validated using adiabatic experimental results in the literature, focusing on characterizing fuel dispersal behavior during loss-of-coolant accidents conditions. Settlement characteristics of the solids, quantified by the probability distribution of equivalent particles, closely matched probability density functions reported in experimental studies. Key highlights of this study include the theoretical description of a coupled three-phase flow with phase change, interpretation of the high-pressure boundary conditions and insights into the transient behavior of gas-solid-liquid phase dynamics during a simulated high-speed dispersal event.

Shock compression behavior of stainless steel 316L octet-truss lattice structures

Lattice structures offer desirable mechanical properties for applications of energy absorption and impact mitigation but limited research has been carried out on their shock compression behavior. In this work, the shock compression behavior of stainless steel 316L (SS316L) octet-truss lattice structures was investigated through experimental techniques and numerical simulations. Plate impact experiments with high-speed imaging were conducted at impact velocities of 270 – 390 m/s on lattice specimens with 5x5x10 unit cell geometries additively manufactured (AM) using direct metal laser sintering. High-speed imaging together with digital image correlation was used to extract full-field measurements and define a two-wave structure consisting of an elastic wave and planar compaction (shock) wave which propagated along the impact direction. A linear shock velocity versus particle velocity relation was found to approximate the measurements with a unit slope and a linear fit constant equal to the crushing speed. Furthermore, the shock velocity versus particle velocity relation, full-field measurements, and elastic limit together with the Eulerian form of the Rankine-Hugoniot jump conditions were used to find relations for the stress and internal energy behind the shock. Stress behind the shock increased with relative density and particle velocity, and specific internal energy converged to a single curve similar to that of bulk AM SS316L. Explicit finite element analysis using the Johnson-Cook constitutive model demonstrated similar shock behavior observed in experiments and a linear shock velocity versus particle velocity relation and corresponding Hugoniot calculations were found to be in agreement with experimental results. Numerical simulations confirmed negligible effects of exterior versus interior measurements and further validated the application of one-dimensional shock theory.
