Bolted joints are used at numerous locations in the rotors and carcass structure of modern aircraft turbine engines. This application makes the design criteria and process substantially different from that used for other types of machinery. Specifically, in addition to providing engine alignment and high-pressure gas sealing, aircraft engine structural joints can operate at high temperatures and may be required to survive very large applied loads which can result from structural failures within the engine, such as the loss of a fan blade. As engine bypass ratios have increased in order to improve specific fuel consumption, these so-called “Ultimate” loads increasingly dominate the design of bolted joints in aircraft engines. This paper deals with the sizing and design of both bolts and lever flanges to meet these demanding requirements. Novel empirical methods, derived from both component test results and correlated analysis have been developed to perform strength evaluation of both flanges and bolts. Discussion of analytical techniques in use includes application of the LS-DYNA™ code for modeling of high-speed blade impact events as related to bolted joint behavior.

Abstract During the braking process, a large amount of heat energy is generated at the friction surfaces between the brake disc and pads and rapidly dissipates into the disc volume. In this paper, a three-dimensional thermo-mechanical coupling model of high-speed wheel-mounted brake discs containing bolted joints and contact relationships is established. The direct coupling method is used to analyse the temperature and stress of the brake discs during an emergency braking event with an initial speed of 300 km/h. A full-scale bench test is also conducted to monitor the temperatures of the friction ring and bolted joints. The simulation result shows that the surface temperature of the friction ring reaches its peak value of 413.7°C after 102 s of braking, which agrees well with the bench test result. The maximum alternating thermal stress occurs in the bolt hole where the maximum circumferential compressive stress is -658 MPa and the maximum circumferential tensile stress is 134 MPa. During the braking process, the out-of-plane deformation of the middle part of the friction ring is larger than that of the edge, which increases the axial tensile load of the connecting bolt. This work provides support for the design of brake discs and connecting bolts.

Nonlinear Properties

A number of precautions are used to prevent injuries to people and industrial equipment during accidents at chemical plants. One of them is based on the use of protective containers for the storage of explosives. A typical container consists of a main structure and a lid of the loading hole. This cover is fixed to the container with fasteners based on bolted connections. To ensure the normative strength of such a connection at the design stage, an analysis of its dynamic strength is performed and the critical loads that cause the destruction of the structure are determined. To reduce the cost of design work, it is advisable to replace a number of experimental tests with numerical studies and simulate the process of destruction. Therefore, the development of methods for numerical analysis of dynamic strength and integrity of typical fasteners based on bolted joints is an urgent problem. Simulation of the destruction of composite structures based on bolted joints should adequately reflect the complex of mechanical loads. First, it is a static load due to the assembly of the bolted connection. Secondly, it is high-speed dynamic loads due to the action of a detonation shock wave. For mathematical modeling of such processes, it is necessary to take into account the influence of the load speed on the mechanical properties of metals in the bolted joint. An important role in modeling the destruction process is played by the correct choice of the criterion of destruction of the structural material. According to the analysis of previous studies, the criterion of maximum plastic deformation was chosen. For the numerical implementation of the developed mathematical model of high-speed deformation and destruction of the folded fastening structure on the basis of bolted connection taking into account nonlinear properties of mechanical characteristics of materials and influence of previous loadings during assembly of a design the finite element method is chosen. The application of the proposed technique at the design stage of protective containers allows to reduce the number of experimental tests and thus reduce the development time and to reduce its cost.

Most microelectronics devices and circuits operate faster, consume less power, execute more functions and cost less per circuit function when the feature-sizes internal to the devices and circuits are made smaller. This is part of the stimulus for the Very High-Speed Integrated Circuits (VHSIC) program. There is also a need for smaller, more sensitive sensors in a wide range of disciplines that includes electrochemistry, neurophysiology and ultra-high pressure solid state research. There is often fundamental new science (and sometimes new technology) to be revealed (and used) when a basic parameter such as size is extended to new dimensions, as is evident at the two extremes of smallness and largeness, high energy particle physics and cosmology, respectively. However, there is also a very important intermediate domain of size that spans from the diameter of a small cluster of atoms up to near one micrometer which may also have just as profound effects on society as “big” physics.

One of the most important requirements for a high-performance EM, especially an analytical EM using a fine beam probe, is to prevent specimen contamination by providing a clean high vacuum in the vicinity of the specimen. However, in almost all commercial EMs, the pressure in the vicinity of the specimen under observation is usually more than ten times higher than the pressure measured at the punping line. The EM column inevitably requires the use of greased Viton O-rings for fine movement, and specimens and films need to be exchanged frequently and several attachments may also be exchanged. For these reasons, a high speed pumping system, as well as a clean vacuum system, is now required. A newly developed electron microscope, the JEM-100CX features clean high vacuum in the vicinity of the specimen, realized by the use of a CASCADE type diffusion pump system which has been essentially improved over its predeces- sorD employed on the JEM-100C.

The Fourier Transform

In the past few years on-line digital television frame store devices coupled to computers have been employed to attempt to measure the microscope parameters of defocus and astigmatism. The ultimate goal of such tasks is to fully adjust the operating parameters of the microscope and obtain an optimum image for viewing in terms of its information content. The initial approach to this problem, for high resolution TEM imaging, was to obtain the power spectrum from the Fourier transform of an image, find the contrast transfer function oscillation maxima, and subsequently correct the image. This technique requires a fast computer, a direct memory access device and even an array processor to accomplish these tasks on limited size arrays in a few seconds per image. It is not clear that the power spectrum could be used for more than defocus correction since the correction of astigmatism is a formidable problem of pattern recognition.

Silicon-on-insulator (SOI) structures have excellent potential for future use in radiation hardened and high speed integrated circuits. For device fabrication in SOI material a high quality superficial Si layer above a buried oxide layer is required. Recently, Celler et al. reported that post-implantation annealing of oxygen implanted SOI at very high temperatures would eliminate virtually all defects and precipiates in the superficial Si layer. In this work we are reporting on the effect of three different post implantation annealing cycles on the structure of oxygen implanted SOI samples which were implanted under the same conditions.

The properties of metal/semiconductor interfaces have received considerable attention over the past few years, and the Al/GaAs system is of special interest because of its potential use in high-speed logic integrated optics, and microwave applications. For such materials a detailed knowledge of the geometric and electronic structure of the interface is fundamental to an understanding of the electrical properties of the contact. It is well known that the properties of Schottky contacts are established within a few atomic layers of the deposited metal. Therefore surface contamination can play a significant role. A method for fabricating contamination-free interfaces is absolutely necessary for reproducible properties, and molecularbeam epitaxy (MBE) offers such advantages for in-situ metal deposition under UHV conditions

Speed Up

A relatively new entry, in the field of microscopy, is the Scanning X-Ray Fluorescence Microscope (SXRFM). Using this type of instrument (e.g. Kevex Omicron X-ray Microprobe), one can obtain multiple elemental x-ray images, from the analysis of materials which show heterogeneity. The SXRFM obtains images by collimating an x-ray beam (e.g. 100 μm diameter), and then scanning the sample with a high-speed x-y stage. To speed up the image acquisition, data is acquired "on-the-fly" by slew-scanning the stage along the x-axis, like a TV or SEM scan. To reduce the overhead from "fly-back," the images can be acquired by bi-directional scanning of the x-axis. This results in very little overhead with the re-positioning of the sample stage. The image acquisition rate is dominated by the x-ray acquisition rate. Therefore, the total x-ray image acquisition rate, using the SXRFM, is very comparable to an SEM. Although the x-ray spatial resolution of the SXRFM is worse than an SEM (say 100 vs. 2 μm), there are several other advantages.
