Deformation Area

In order to determine the evolution features of deformation twins for TA2 commercial pure titanium (cp-TA2), the TA2 samples were bent under different bending angles in three-point bending tests via a universal testing machine. The electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) technique was applied to identify the grain boundaries (GBs) and twin boundaries (TBs) in the bending areas. The results reveal that the type of deformation area would effect the evolution of different deformation twins. It is inferred that the state of stress would promote the multiplication of the same type of deformation twins.

The Coefficient Of Friction

Friction at different force, length, and time scales is of great interest in tribology. The mechanical, chemical, and physical (atomic) interactions, each operating at their own time length and force scale, makes friction complex. This work is an attempt to improve the understanding of friction at normal forces ranging from nN up to N. This investigation was carried out under reciprocating ball-on-flat sliding conditions on engineering surfaces like diamond-like carbon (DLC) and dual phase steel. The test equipments used for this investigation are an atomic force microscope, a microtribometer, and a macrofretting tester. It was observed that for a hard/hard tribocouple like DLC/Si3N4, the variation in the coefficient of friction is negligible whereas the variation is large when the tribocouple is hard / soft like in dual phase steel / Si3N4. By changing the surface roughness of the material, the dependence of friction on normal force could be altered or manipulated.

AbstractThis paper describes a scientific research aimed at obtaining data for determining Young modulus of the wings of selected insects’ species. A small testing machine intended for three-point bending and equipped with instruments registering low forces was constructed for the needs of the experiment. The machine was used to perform numerous bending tests of wings of three species of insects (obtained from a breeding farm): Attacus atlas, Vespa crabro, Libellula depressa in various air-humidity conditions. Values of the force and displacement obtained in the course of the tests were used to calculate Young modulus. In order to do so, it was also necessary to obtain the moment of inertia of the wing cross-section. These values were measured on the basis of the images obtained with a SEM microscope. Obtained results were averaged and presented with a breakdown by air-humidity conditions. It was observed that Young modulus decreased with an increase of humidity; hence the calculations of the percentage decrease of this mechanical parameter were performed. Obtained results were compared with the observed structure which was also presented under light microscope. It transpired that the construction of a wing does not only influence the mechanical values but also it influences their susceptibility to the changes occurring in the environment. Thereby, differences between Lepidoptera and Hymenoptera insects were indicated also within the aspect discussed in this paper.

Honeycomb Sandwich Structure

In order to analyze the mechanical properties of Carbon/epoxy facings-Aluminum honeycomb sandwich structure, we simulated panels of different layers and core thickness using ABAQUS finite element analysis program. And three-point bending tests and shear tests were made on the same panels using electronic universal testing machine. In addition, we also made the same three-point bending tests on steel tubes to get a comparison with honeycomb sandwich panels. It could be seen that, the simulated results were basically identified with experimental results. The results indicated that core thickness played an important role in the panels’ bulking modulus, and number of carbon fiber layers decided the shear strength. As a whole, honeycomb sandwich structure was suitable for use in the car body with good mechanical properties under premise of lighter.

Three point bending tests on V-notched specimens machined from a component cast in EN-GJS 500-14 nodular iron solid solution strengthened by silicon have been carried out. The 3P bending tests were performed at different stroke speeds (10-3 ~ 102 mm/s). The resulting strain rates at the V notch varied in the range of 1·10-4 ~ 5,8 s-1. The fracture surface of 3P bending tests was quantified in terms of ductile and brittle fracture using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). EN-GJS 500-14 has an increased brittle behavior with increasing strain rate. Predominately ductile fracture was observed for the strain rates 1·10-4~4·10-2S-1. . At the strain rate of about 1 s-1 more significant change in ductile to brittle fracture is seen. The 3P bending tests at -15°C showed predominately brittle fracture for the strain rates investigated 3,6·10-2 ~ 2,3 s-1.
