A Taylor Model Based Description of the proof stress of magnesium AZ31 during hot working

A series of hot-compression tests and Taylor-model simulations were carried out with the intention of developing a simple expression for the proof stress of magnesium alloy AZ31 during hot working. A crude approximation of wrought textures as a mixture of a single ideal texture component and a random background was employed. The shears carried by each deformation system were calculated using a full-constraint Taylor model for a selection of ideal orientations as well as for random textures. These shears, in combination with the measured proof stresses, were employed to estimate the critical resolved shear stresses for basal slip, prismatic slip, ⟨c+a⟩ second-order pyramidal slip, and { } twinning. The model thus established provides a semianalytical estimation of the proof stress (a one-off Taylor simulation is required) and also indicates whether or not twinning is expected. The approach is valid for temperatures between ∼150 °C and ∼450 °C, depending on the texture, strain rate, and strain path.

The nash solution and relevant expansions

In this paper we propose a new axiom, Relevant Balanced Expansion Monotonicity (RBEM), to replace Nash’s original Independence of Irrelevant Alternatives (HA) axiom. Using the RBEM axiom and the other three original axioms suggested by Nash we provide a characterization of the Nash Solution.

Elizabeth Taylor Sometimes (Remix)

In this project the filmmaker revisits her 1998 short film 'Elizabeth Taylor Sometimes' that projects us into the post-human world in which the body is outmoded. The meat is despised and celebrity is a garment we buy at Target - cheap, accessible and banal. Remixed to reflect the impact of social media on the representation and presentation of celebrity
