This paper applies various ductile fracture criteria into finite element analysis (FEA) to predict the fracture initiation of punch-stretch tests. Punch-stretch tests are carried out to construct forming limit diagrams (FLDs) of SPCC (Steel plated cold-rolled commercial quality). Limit dome heights (LDHs) are measured from the fractured specimens in punch-stretch tests. The limit strains in uniaxial tension, plane strain and equibiaxial tension conditions are measured in FLDs and utilized to evaluate the material constants in ductile fracture criteria. To implement ductile fracture criteria into FEA, user subroutines are developed for the commercial software ABAQUS/Explicit with the Hill48 yield function. Simulations are carried out to predict fracture initiation of punch-stretch tests by ductile fracture criteria. Fracture locations predicted by ductile fracture criteria are compared with fractured specimens in experiments. LDHs are measured from simulations and compared with experimental results. The comparison demonstrates that LDHs predicted by various ductile fracture criteria match the experimental results with higher accuracy for arc-shape specimens while the Lou-Huh criterion predicts more accurate LDHs than other ductile fracture criteria for square-shaped specimens.

Fracture-based forming limit criteria for anisotropic materials in sheet metal forming

<P><B>Abstract</B></P> <P>This paper is concerned with modeling of fracture-based forming limit criteria for anisotropic materials in sheet metal forming to predict the sudden fracture in complicated forming processes. The Lou–Huh ductile fracture criterion is modified using the Hill's 48 anisotropic yield function instead of the von Mises isotropic yield function to take account of the influence of anisotropy on the equivalent plastic strain at the onset of fracture. For the derivation of an anisotropic ductile fracture criterion, the principal stresses (<I>σ</I> <SUB>1</SUB>,<I>σ</I> <SUB>2</SUB>,<I>σ</I> <SUB>3</SUB>) are expressed in terms of the stress triaxiality, the Lode parameter, and the equivalent stress ( <SUB> η H </SUB> , <SUB> L P </SUB> , <SUB> σ ¯ H </SUB> ) based on the Hill's 48 yield function. Three different kinds of fracture-based forming limit criteria are suggested and investigated with an assumption that the stress state is under the plane stress condition with proportional loading. To determine the parameters of the model proposed, the two-dimensional digital image correlation (2D-DIC) method is utilized to measure the strain histories on the surface of three different types of specimens during deformation and the measurement results are investigated to identify the anisotropy effect on the equivalent plastic strain at the onset of fracture. This paper also discusses about a scaling method for a strain-based fracture forming limit criterion in order to capture the onset of fracture using a single forming limit curve for an anisotropic material. From the comparison of various forming limit criteria suggested, it is concluded that a polar effective plastic strain-based (PEPS) fracture forming limit diagram (FFLD) is suitable for prediction of the sudden fracture in AHSS sheets in complicated sheet metal forming processes on the basis of its path independence and simplicity of measuring strains in real forming processes.</P> <P><B>Highlights</B></P> <P> <UL> <LI> This paper is concerned with fracture-based forming limit criteria of DP980 sheets. </LI> <LI> The anisotropic ductile fracture criterion is suggested on the basis of the Lou–Huh ductile fracture criterion. </LI> <LI> The principal stresses (<I>σ</I> <SUB>1</SUB>,<I>σ</I> <SUB>2</SUB>,<I>σ</I> <SUB>3</SUB>) are expressed in terms of ( <SUB> η H </SUB> , <SUB> L P </SUB> , <SUB> σ ¯ H </SUB> ) . </LI> <LI> Three different kinds of fracture-based forming limit criteria are suggested for anisotropic materials. </LI> <LI> A fracture-based polar effective plastic strain FFLD is suitable for prediction of the sudden fracture of AHSSs. </LI> </UL> </P>

Yan Lou(Yan Lou ), 김정인(Jungyin Kim) 학습자중심교과교육학회 2023 학습자중심교과교육연구 Vol.23 No.9

목적 이 연구는 두 EFL 영어 전공자의 학습 스타일을 탐색하여 학습 스타일에 영향을 미치는 요인을 식별하는 것을 목표로 했다. 방법 질적 연구를 통해 문화적 배경이 다른 2명의 영어 전공자(한국인 1명, 중국 유학생 1명)를 사례 연구로 선정했다. 연구원들은 2020년 10월부터 2021년 4월까지 한국 국립대학교에서 진행된 고급 영어 회화 수업의 현장 노트를 작성하고 인터뷰를 완료했고 데이터 분석 단계에서 연구자는 인터뷰 내용을 코딩하고 교실 관찰 기록 및 인터뷰 노트와 같은 추가 자료를 조사했다. 결과 한국학생 Alice의 시각 스타일이 동작 스타일을 통해 제고된 반면 국제중국학생 Cindy는 시각 스타일을 통해 청각 스타일을 향상시켰다. 다두 EFL 참가자의 서로 다른 학습 스타일에 영향을 미치는 요인이 가족 환경, 학교 환경 및 문화적 배경임을 발견했다. 결론 본 연구는 학습 선호도가 타고난 능력이 아니라 개인의 가정환경, 학교 환경 및 교사의 스타일, 문화적 배경에 따라 달라질 수 있음을 밝혔다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 개인이 자신의 학습 스타일을 알게 되면 이를 학습 과정에 도움이 된다. 또한 학생의 학습 스타일 특성을 파악하면 교사가 자신의 강의 스타일과 수업 자료를 탐색하는 데 도움이 된다. Objectives This study aimed to explore two EFL English majors’ learning styles to identify factors affecting their learning styles. Methods The study conducted qualitative research and selected two English majors with different cultural background (i.e., one Korean and one international Chinese student) as a case study. The researchers took field notes of an advanced English conversation class and completed interviews between October 2020 and April 2021 at a Korean national university. During the data analysis phase, the researchers coded the interview content and examined additional materials, such as classroom observation logs and interview notes. Results The researchers discovered that Korean student Alice had a visual learning style promoted through kinesthetic, whereas International Chinese student Cindy was an auditory learner, promoted through the visual. The factors that influenced the different learning styles of the two participants were: family environment, school environment and their cultural background. Conclusions This study revealed that learning preference is not an innate ability but may vary in accordance with individual's family environment, school environment and the teachers' styles, and culture background. Based on these findings, when the individual knows his/her learning style, s/he will integrate it in the process of learning. Moreover, identifying the characteristics of students' learning styles will assist teachers navigate their teaching style and class materials.

Modeling of ductile fracture from shear to balanced biaxial tension for sheet metals

Lou, Y.,Chen, L.,Clausmeyer, T.,Tekkaya, A.E.,Yoon, J.W. Pergamon Press ; Elsevier Science Ltd 2017 International journal of solids and structures Vol.112 No.-

<P>A ductile fracture model is proposed to describe shear fracture of sheet metals from shear to balanced biaxial tension via uniaxial and plane strain tension. The fracture criterion models plastic damage as strain-induced void nucleation, triaxiality-governed void enlargement, Lode-controlled void torsion, and shear-restrained coalescence of voids. Its flexibility is investigated by a parameter study of the ductile fracture model proposed. The fracture model is employed to describe ductile fracture behavior of an aluminum alloy AA6082 T6 (thickness: 1.0 mm). Dogbone specimens are strained to characterize the strain hardening properties, while another four different specimens are tested to characterize fracture behavior in shear, uniaxial tension, plane strain tension and balanced biaxial tension. The loading processes are analyzed numerically with the stress invariant-based Drucker yield function which is for the first time specified for body-centered cubic and face-centered cubic metals. Fracture strains in various loading conditions are measured with a hybrid experimental-numerical approach. The measured fracture strains are then used to calibrate the ductile fracture model proposed. The ductile fracture model calibrated above is employed to predict the onset of ductile fracture for these four specimens. For the purpose of comparison, the predicted fracture strokes of these four loading conditions are compared with those predicted by the modified Mohr-Coulomb model (Bai and Wierzbicki, 2008), and two micromechanism-inspired criteria proposed recently (Lou et al., 2012, 2014). The comparison reveals that the proposed model predicts the fracture behavior in much better agreement compared with experimental results from shear to the balanced biaxial tension. Accordingly, the proposed ductile fracture criterion is recommended for the prediction of ductile fracture in sheet metal forming processes, optimization of forming parameters and design of tools for both solid elements and shell elements. Besides, the ductile fracture model proposed can also be applied in various bulk metal forming processes in case that the model is calibrated by proper sets of experiments. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd.

Huihui Lou,Chong Shen,Qun Xiang,Jiaqiang Xu,Tianjun Lou 성균관대학교(자연과학캠퍼스) 성균나노과학기술원 2016 NANO Vol.11 No.8

Thiol-functionalized three-dimensional (3D) mesoporous silica FDU-12 and SBA-15 with ordered pore were prepared. All the obtained materials were characterized by small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Mesoporous silica FDU-12 (Fm3m) materials with various unit cell sizes, multifaceted pore were convenient for the interaction of subject and object; the 2D SBA-15 mesoporous silica materials with short and order pore channel were better than the traditional SBA-15 mesoporous silica, in which the pore channel can be used fully. 3D mesoporous silica FDU-12 is used as a sensing material to reconstruct QCM sensors to enhance the stability and this material is an ideal material to deal with heavy metal ions in water.

Prediction of Fracture Forming Limit for DP780 Steel Sheet

Yanshan Lou,Sung Jun Lim,허훈 대한금속·재료학회 2013 METALS AND MATERIALS International Vol.19 No.4

This paper is concerned with modeling of fracture strains of DP780 using a newly proposed micro-mechanism-motivated ductile fracture criterion (Lou et al., 2012) and its application to predict limit dome heights (LDH) for nine hemispherical punch-stretch tests. Dog-bone specimens are tested to characterize strain hardening behavior. Five arc-shaped specimens and four square-shaped specimens are drawn until fracture to construct a fracture forming limit diagram (FFLD) using circle grid analysis. Fracture strains are approximated from constructed FFLD in uniaxial, plane strain and balanced biaxial tension. The approximated fracture strains are employed to calculate material constants of the proposed criterion as well as six conventional criteria. FFLDs predicted by these criteria are compared with experimental results. The comparison demonstrates that only the proposed criterion describes FFLD perfectly from uniaxial tension to balanced biaxial tension. All criteria are implemented into ABAQUS/Explicit to predict LDHs of punch-stretch tests. Numerical results indicate that LDHs are severely underestimated for the square-shaped specimens by conventional criteria while the proposed criterion predicts LDHs with good agreement for nine tests with strain paths between uniaxial tension and balanced biaxial tension. Thus, the proposed criterion is recommended to access formability from uniaxial tension to balanced biaxial tension.

Load-Displacement Formulations of Low-rise Unbounded RC Shear Walls with or without Openings

Lou, K. Y.,Cheng, F. Y.,Sheu, M. S.,Zhang, X. Z. Computational Structural Engineering Institute of 2001 Computational structural engineering Vol.1 No.2

Investigations of low-rice unbounded reinforced concrete shear walls with or without openings are performed with comparison of analytical and experimental results. Theoretical analysis is based on nonlinear finite element algorithm, which incorporates concrete failure criterion and nonlinear constitutive relationships. Studios focus on the effects of height-to-length ratio of shear walls, opening ratio, horizontal and vertical reinforcement radios, and diagonal reinforcement. Analytical solutions conform well with experimental results. Equations for cracking, yielding and ultimate loads with corresponding lateral displacements are derived by regression using analytical results and experimental data. Also, failure modes of low-rise unbounded shear walls are theoretically investigated. An explanation of change in failure mode is ascertained by comparing analytical results and ACI code equations. Shear-flexural failure can be obtained with additional flexural reinforcement to increase a wall's capacity. This concept leads to a design method of reducing flexural reinforcement in low-rise bounded solid shear wall's. Avoidance of shear failure as well as less reinforcement congestion leer these walls is expected.

Effects of Popularity Cues on Impulse Purchase in Live Streaming Commerce

Lou, L.,Koh, J.(고준) 한국지능정보시스템학회 2022 한국지능정보시스템학회 학술대회논문집 Vol.2022 No.6

In the context of live streaming commerce, popularity cues including streamer popularity and product popularity are tactically created and utilized to improve product sales. However, research on live streaming commerce that investigates the effects of popularity cues on purchase is scarce. This study aims to reveal the role of popularity cues in promoting consumers’ impulse purchase. Based on a stimulus-organism-response framework, this study tends to survey more than 500 customers and empirically demonstrate that streamer popularity and product popularity can trigger consumers’ impulse purchase by not only simultaneously decreasing perceived consumption risk but also enhancing perceived streamer reputation and perceived competition, respectively. This study contributes to a better understanding of the working mechanism of popularity cues and offers practical insights into utilizing atmospheric cues to increase product sales.

Theory and Practice of Philosophical Counseling

Lou Marinoff 강원대학교 인문과학연구소 2011 Journal of Humanities Therapy Vol.2 No.-

This article contains four parts. In the first part, I will characterize a meta-theory of philosophical counseling (PC). While particular theories of PC may differ, they are not necessarily incompatible. In fact, taken together they harmonize in suggesting a meta-theory for PC. Second, we will survey a few different methodologies, illustrating that there are many ways to apply the theories that we have characterized. Third, we will examine some salient aspects of practicing philosophy as a profession, outside the academy. What do academic philosophers and philosophical counselors have in common, and how do they differ? Fourth, we will look briefly at three case studies.
