Slide-ring (SR) gels, a new type of gels that have cross-links moving along the chains, are known to have unique mechanical characteristics. In the case of biaxial deformations, it has been experimentally shown that the stress–strain (S–S) relationships of SR gels can be well described by the neo-Hookean (NH) model. This behavior is quite different from that of conventional chemical gels, where the S–S curves deviate from the NH model. To understand the molecular mechanism of such peculiar elastic properties of SR gels, we studied the effects of movable cross-links by using molecular simulations and theoretical analysis. We calculate the S–S relationships in biaxial deformation for two types of models: slip model, where the cross-links can slide along chains representing SR gels, and non-slip model, which corresponds to conventional chemical gels. In the theoretical analysis, we calculate the S–S relationships by using the models with the Gaussian and the Langevin chains to investigate the nonlinear stretching effect of the chain in the slip and non-slip models. As a result, we found that the peculiar elastic behaviors of SR gels in biaxial deformations are well explained by the effect of movable cross-links suppressing the nonlinear stretching of the chain.

High voltage switches are indispensable in power system which will control and protect the high voltage lines. According to the research of high voltage switch equipment accident rate in the international conference on power grid for according, the high voltage switch equipment mechanical failure accidents accounted for more than 70%. Thus, it is meaningful to research the switch monitoring technology and develop an integration device with easy installation and reliable data transmission. In this paper, a new type of non-contact current sensor is used to develop the online monitoring system for the mechanical characteristics of HV switches, which will monitor and analyze the action characteristics of the opening coil, closing coil and energy storage motor.

Cemented sand and gravel (CSG) is a new type of dam materials. It not only can reduce the waste of resources and environmental pollution, but has the merits of both gravel and concrete. In this study, Cemented sand and gravel specimens with three cement ratios were compacted at optimum water content and cured for 14 days. Based on the consolidated drained shear triaxial tests, the mechanical properties of different proportion of CSG are studied on shear failure mode, stress-strain relationship, shear strength. Research results showed that, with the increasing of the content of cement, the peak and residual strength of CSG were improved, but the failure strains were decreased. In addition, CSG material behaves distinctly softening.

The devulcanization of the rubber wastes in autoclave represent a technological variant that allows the superior utilization of rubber wastes, but with high energy consumption. The researches aimed at improving the devulcanization technology in order to obtain reclaimed rubber with superior characteristics, but also with a reduction in energy consumption. An improvement to devulcanization technology consisted in vacuuming the autoclave at the end of the devulcanization process. An increase in the degree of devulcanization of the rubber from 86.83% to 93.81% and an improvement of the physico-mechanical characteristics of the reclaimed rubber was achieved by applying this technology. The realization of the new type of regenerated rubber allowed for an increase in the degree of it use for different mixtures, from 15–20 phr to 30–40 phr without substantially affecting the physical and mechanical properties of the products. Additionally, the researche has shown that, by obtaining the new type of reclaimed rubber, the duration of the refining process has been reduced by 30%. All of this leads to a considerable reduction in energy consumption and transformation of the rubber waste reclaiming process into a sustainable one.

Rabbit forelimb tendons incubated for 15 or 21 days at 35 degrees C in the presence of 8 or 24 mg of glucose/ml were shown to change their chemical, biochemical and mechanical characteristics. The tendons treated with glucose contained up to three times as much hexosyl-lysine and hexosylhydroxylysine as did control tendons as judged by assay of NaB3H4-reduced samples. Measurement of the force generated on thermal contraction showed significant increases in glycosylated tendons compared with controls, indicating the formation of new covalent stabilizing bonds. This conclusion was supported by the decreased solubility of intact tendons and re-formed fibres glycosylated in vitro, and by the evidence from peptide maps of CNBr-digested glucose-incubated tendons. The latter, when compared with peptide maps of control tendons, revealed the presence of additional high-Mr peptide material. These peptides appear to be cross-linked by a new type of covalent bond stable to mild thermal and chemical treatment. This system in vitro provides a readily controlled model for the study of the chemistry of changes brought about in collagen by non-enzymic glycosylation in diabetes.
