Angular Particles

The trajectory of an angular particle as it cuts a ductile target is, in general, complicated because of its dependence not only on particle shape, but also on particle orientation at the initial instant of impact. This orientation dependence has also made experimental measurement of impact parameters of single angular particles very difficult, resulting in a relatively small amount of available experimental data in the literature. The current work is focused on obtaining measurements of particle kinematics for comparison to rigid plastic model developed by Papini and Spelt. Fundamental mechanisms of material removal are identified, and measurements of rebound parameters and corresponding crater dimensions of single hardened steel particles launched against flat aluminium alloy targets are presented. Also a 2-D finite element model is developed and a dynamic analysis is performed to predict the erosion mechanism. Overall, a good agreement was found among the experimental results, rigid-plastic model predictions and finite element model predictions.

A study was conducted to assess the robustness of a plane strain finite element model that was developed to simulate plate shearing using the Cockroft-Latham fracture criterion and element deletion. Model predictions for blade gap, ductility and edge wear were compared with published experimental results. Results showed that the model was able to simulate initiation and propagation of fracture lines at the punch and die corners and the resultant break angle along the edge was found to be close to values observed in practice. Simulated edge geometry and microhardness were found to be in reasonable agreement with published experimental results for the steel plate considered although the model was unable to simulate double cutting at 0.8 per cent clearance. Results also suggest that edge hardness is independent of the starting ductility in the plate and that increasing the edge radii does not effectively simulate edge wear. Based on the results obtained, it may be concluded that the plane strain model is able to simulate plate shearing with sufficient accuracy in the range of normal process conditions.

Cell Matrix Interactions

Mechanically induced cell deformations have been shown to influence chondrocyte response in 3D culture. However, the relationship between the mechanical stimulation and cell response is not yet fully understood. In this study a finite element model was developed to investigate cell-matrix interactions under unconfined compression conditions, using a tissue engineered encapsulating hydrogel seeded with chondrocytes. Model predictions of stress and strain distributions within the cell and on the cell boundary were shown to exhibit space-dependent responses that varied with scaffold mechanical properties, the presence of a pericellular matrix (PCM), and the cell size. The simulations predicted that when the cells were initially encapsulated into the hydrogel scaffolds, the cell size hardly affected the magnitude of the stresses and strains that were reaching the encapsulated cells. However, with the inclusion of a PCM layer, larger cells experienced enhanced stresses and strains resulting from the mechanical stimulation. It was also noted that the PCM had a stress shielding effect on the cells in that the peak stresses experienced within the cells during loading were significantly reduced. On the other hand, the PCM caused the stresses at the cell-matrix interface to increase. Based on the model predictions, the PCM modified the spatial stress distribution within and around the encapsulated cells by redirecting the maximum stresses from the periphery of the cells to the cell nucleus. In a tissue engineered cartilage exposed to mechanical loading, the formation of a neo-PCM by encapsulated chondrocytes appears to protect them from initially excessive mechanical loading. Predictive models can thus shed important insight into how chondrocytes remodel their local environment in order to redistribute mechanical signals in tissue engineered constructs.
