Model Definition and Calculation Results In order to obtain the influences of material properties on the variation of residual stress, the model is depicted in Fig.1.
Other factors that appear to be centrally related to the residual stress and stability, such as thermal expansion misfit between the bond coat and the substrate, as well as the temperature dependence of yielding will be addressed in a subsequent study.

It also changes the phase behavior of the LC mixture affecting the overall performance of LC-QD composite systems.
The formation of LC mixtures depends on two factors: First, the ability of the molecules to mix together, and second, the mean orientation cohesive energy density of the mixture.
The properties of QDs are size-dependent; therefore, they are extensively used to modify the properties of LCs to fine-tune and improve the electro-optical and photonics-based properties.
Here we summarize the various outcomes that may be useful for Photonics and Electro-optical applications: (a) We could successfully achieve the homogeneous dispersion of QDs without affecting the mechanical stability of the LC mixture system.

This work was aimed at an evaluation of characteristics of laser welded S355 steel sheets of the thickness 6 mm and 10 mm, respectively, with a particular emphasis on fatigue resistance of specimens with smooth surface and evaluation of damage mechanisms and affecting factors.
Fig. 6: Surface transversal residual stresses across the welds of sheets There are some other factors which may affect the fatigue resistance characteristics like e.g. different notch toughness, but the most important probably are residual stresses, evaluated by X-ray diffraction at the Czech Technical University in Prague – Fig. 6.
Conclusions Very different and self- contradictory results of the investigation of fatigue resistance of laser welded sheets of 6 mm and 10 mm thickness, respectively were found and some possible affecting factors like local microstructure, chemical composition, local hardness and residual stresses were addressed.

These thermal and mechanical systems of equations are solved simultaneously using the Newton's method. 2.2 Thermal model Due to the time-dependent nature of the casting process, the heat transfer model of the DC casting process must be transient and must account for any appreciable temperature dependencies in thermo-physical properties of the materials employed in the casting process.
The heat transfer coefficient depends on many factor such as the water flow rate, the spraying position, the nozzle type, the surface temperature of the ingot, and so on.
The thermophysical properties of 7B50 aluminum in the analysis are temperature dependent.

At the same time, the temperature is another important factor to affect the principle stress, because the stress is depend on the elastic modulus which is temperature dependent.
