Topic: *Understanding thermomechanical behavior of vitrimers using molecular dynamics simulations*

Vitrimers are a special class of polymers that undergo dynamic cross-linking under thermal stimuli. Their ability to exchange covalent bonds can be harnessed to mitigate damage in a composite or to achieve recyclable composites. This work addresses the primary challenge of modeling dynamic cross-linking reactions in vitrimers during thermomechanical loading. Dynamic bond exchange reaction probability change during heating and its effect on dilatometric and mechanical response are simulated in large scale molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Healing of damage under thermal cycling is computed with mechanical properties predicted before and after self–healing.

Subsequently, the model is used to simulate the creep response of the vitrimer. The results show that the vitrimers demonstrate a secondary creep response on contrary to pure epoxy. The MD simulations are able to probe the interplay between chemical reactions and the loading that results in the healing of the vitrimer under creep. The important feature that explains the difference between epoxies and vitrimers is the orientation of the crosslink bonds with respect to the loading direction. Furthermore, it is found that the free volume that arises from tensile loads is reduced in vitrimers through dynamic bond rearrangement. The bond orientation, however, is preferentially chosen to be normal to the loading axis which ends up decreasing the stiffness along the loading axis, leading to higher strain as compared to epoxies. Over longer timescales, the increased strain leads to faster damage localization in tertiary creep where the largest void grows to a critical volume beyond which healing is no longer possible. Thus, chemistry changes or additives that can prevent the initial realignment of dynamic bonds can be an effective strategy to mitigate creep in vitrimers.

Privacy@Michigan Keynote: Privacy, Power, & Platforms (February 17, 2023 11:00am) https://events.umich.edu/event/104323 104323-21808823@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Friday, February 17, 2023 11:00am
Location: Palmer Commons
Organized By: Information and Technology Services (ITS)

Register to join the 2023 Privacy@Michigan keynote with Dr. Kirsten Martin on Friday, February 17 at 11 a.m.

Dr. Kirsten Martin for a Privacy@Michigan keynote presentation on privacy expectations on online platforms. Standard approaches to privacy assume individuals relinquish privacy expectations when online or have focused on individuals in relation to a single company. Platforms, such as social media, marketplaces, search engines, etc, are unique in having duties beyond a standard company while also having access to the data of millions of individuals. Dr. Martin will discuss how we need to think about platforms, particularly powerful platforms, as having an obligation to respect the privacy of their users and what that obligation actually entails. Dr. Martin is a University of Michigan College of Engineering alumna.

Dr. Florian Schaub, Assistant Professor of Information, School of Information and Assistant Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, College of Engineering, will facilitate Q&A time after the keynote presentation.

This hybrid event will be hosted in person in Forum Hall, on the fourth floor of Palmer Commons, and livestreamed on the Privacy@Michigan events page [https://safecomputing.umich.edu/events/privacy-at-michigan/privacy-day-2023/Keynote-Dr-Martin]

Refreshments will be available just prior to the event.

Topic: *Simulation for the Design of Sodium Heat Pipes bundle Test Facility for the Application of Microreactors*

The 20 MW Special Purpose Reactor (SPR) is a heat pipe cooled microreactor that designed for electricity production in remote locations where reliable power grids are not always available. The key to SPR is the alkali metal heat pipes, which offer entirely passive operation capacity with high mobility. Prior to deployment, safety analysis with postulated accident scenarios is required for the licensing of SPR. To this regard, a sufficiently accurate model is crucial to predict the behavior of heat pipes, and high-resolution data is needed for the safety analysis of SPR. However, the current existing heat pipe models are either oversimplified or unpractical expensive in view of the difficulty of the simulation with the wick structure and two-phase flow in the heat pipe. Therefore, high fidelity experimental data is required for model verification in the high temperature heat pipe bundle system. The Michigan Sodium Heat Pipe bundle test facility which serves as a scale-down test facility using ten sodium heat pipes with a triangular array, was utilized to verify the model for the licensing of SPR. In the talk, the feasibility analysis using Computer Aided Engineering and Computational Fluid Dynamics for the design of the test facility was addressed.
