Initial stress in an electrodeposited layer formed on a bending strip cathode

Abstract

Through a generalization of the theoretical model proposed in previous work, a number of relations have been derived for calculating the initial stress and the initial strains occuring in the course of the formation of an arbitrary electrodeposited layer on a bending elastic strip cathode. The results have been verified by means of the finite element method. They provide a new basis for or an opportunity to improve the accuracy of some of the relations used in the investigation of electrocrystallization processes.
