The automobile industry is currently moving towards increasing fuel economy by reducing vehicle weight. A high-speed ridged nailing technology is a new technology which can solve the challenges involved with multi-material joining in automobile industry. This study investigated the performance of the high speed ridged nail joints made with Aluminum 6061-T6 in pure shear loading. An LS-DYNA FEA model of high-speed ridged nail joint was developed and model results were validated against corresponding experimental results from pure shear loading tests till failure. It was shown that the proposed shear model agreed with experimental results. A set of sensitivity studies were carried out to identify the influential material model type, influence of petalling and effect of ridge-engagement on the joint strength in shear. The model was further used to simulate performance of high-speed ridged nail joints with different thickness combinations. The findings of these simulations indicate that high-speed ridged nail is a viable solution for material joining. Regression models based on bottom plate thickness were proposed.

Axial Torsion

Uniaxial, torsion, and axial-torsion fatigue experiments were conducted on a pressure vessel steel, 16MnR, in ambient air. The uniaxial experiments were conducted using solid cylindrical specimens. Axial-torsion experiments employed thin-walled tubular specimens subjected to proportional and nonproportional loading. The true fracture stress and strain were obtained by testing solid shafts under monotonic torsion. Experimental results reveal that the material under investigation does not display significant nonproportional hardening. The material was found to display shear cracking under pure shear loading but tensile cracking under tension-compression loading. Two critical plane multiaxial fatigue criteria, namely, the Fatemi–Socie criterion and the Jiang criterion, were evaluated based on the experimental results. The Fatemi–Socie criterion combines the maximum shear strain amplitude with a consideration of the normal stress on the critical plane. The Jiang criterion makes use of the plastic strain energy on a material plane as the major contributor to the fatigue damage. Both criteria were found to correlate well with the experiments in terms of fatigue life. The predicted cracking directions by the criteria were less satisfactory when comparing with the experimentally observed cracking behavior under different loading conditions.

This research focuses on the study of the effects of processing conditions on the Johnson–Cook material model parameters for orthogonal machining of aluminum (Al 6061-T6) alloy. Two sets of parameters of Johnson–Cook material model describing material behavior of Al 6061-T6 were investigated by comparing cutting forces and chip morphology. A two-dimensional finite element model was developed and validated with the experimental results published literature. Cutting tests were conducted at low-, medium-, and high-speed cutting speeds. Chip formation and cutting forces were compared with the numerical model. A novel technique of cutting force measurement using power meter was also validated. It was found that the cutting forces decrease at higher cutting speeds as compared to the low and medium cutting speeds. The poor prediction of cutting forces by Johnson–Cook model at higher cutting speeds and feed rates showed the existence of a material behavior that does not exist at lower or medium cutting speeds. Two factors were considered responsible for the change in cutting forces at higher cutting speeds: change in coefficient of friction and thermal softening. The results obtained through numerical investigations after incorporated changes in coefficient of friction showed a good agreement with the experimental results.

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.

Abstract In an effort to understand the dynamic hub forces on road vehicles, an advanced free-rolling tire-model is being developed in which the tread blocks and tire belt are modeled separately. This paper presents the interim results for the tread block modeling. The finite element code ABAQUS/Explicit is used to predict the contact forces on the tread blocks based on a linear viscoelastic material model. Special attention is paid to investigating the forces on the tread blocks during the impact and release motions. A pressure and slip-rate-dependent frictional law is applied in the analysis. A simplified numerical model is also proposed where the tread blocks are discretized into linear viscoelastic spring elements. The results from both models are validated via experiments in a high-speed rolling test rig and found to be in good agreement.

Rettery wastewaters were treated in anaerobic and aerobic ponds. Anaerobic treatment yielded efficiencies of BOD5 and COD removal as low as 20%. The treatment process conducted under aerobic conditions in aerated and stabilizing ponds arranged in series took from 18 to 20 days and gave efficiencies of BOD5 and COD removal amounting to 90%. The experimental results were interpreted by virtue of the Eckenfelder equation. Excess activated sludge was subjected to aerobic stabilization in a separate tank. A new technology was suggested for the existing obsolete industrial treatment plant.

Cfd Analyses

Flow Induced Motions are always an important subject during both design and operational phases of an offshore platform life. These motions could significantly affect the performance of the platform, including its mooring and oil production systems. These kind of analyses are performed using basically two different approaches: experimental tests with reduced models and, more recently, with Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) dynamic analysis. The main objective of this work is to present a new approach, based on an analytical methodology using static CFD analyses to estimate the response on yaw motions of a Tension Leg Wellhead Platform on one of the several types of motions that can be classified as flow-induced motions, known as galloping. The first step is to review the equations that govern the yaw motions of an ocean platform when subjected to currents from different angles of attack. The yaw moment coefficients will be obtained using CFD steady-state analysis, on which the yaw moments will be calculated for several angles of attack, placed around the central angle where the analysis is being carried out. Having the force coefficients plotted against the angle values, we can adjust a polynomial curve around each analysis point in order to evaluate the amplitude of the yaw motion using a limit cycle approach. Other properties of the system which are flow-dependent, such as damping and added mass, will also be estimated using CFD. The last part of this work consists in comparing the analytical results with experimental results obtained at the LOC/COPPE-UFRJ laboratory facilities.

Rain Erosion

In this work, the resistance and deformation characteristics of a brittle material against rain erosion are examined by using the non-linear, explicit software LS-DYNA. The water jet with varying speeds impinges at 90° on silica float glass plates with different thicknesses. In the simulations, the Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian method is used for modelling of the water. In order to analyse the deformations on the brittle material Johnson–Holmquist–Ceramics (JH-2) is used as the material model. Minimum plate thickness (for constant water jet speed) and maximum water speed (for constant plate thickness), which do not cause any damage to the target, are determined depending on the geometry, boundary conditions and assumed failure strain value for erosion. The results are compared with the water-hammer pressure.

The dynamic response of the turbine blade materials is indispensable for analysis of erosions of turbine blades as a result of impulsive loading associated with gas flow. This paper is concerned with the dynamic material properties of the Inconel 718 alloy which is widely used in the high speed turbine blade. The dynamic response at the corresponding level of the strain rate should be acquired with an adequate experimental technique and apparatus due to the inertia effect and the stress wave propagation. In this paper, the dynamic response of the Inconel 718 at the intermediate strain rate ranged from 1/s to 400/s is obtained from the high speed tensile test and that at the high strain rate above 1000/s is obtained from the split Hopkinson pressure bar test. The effects of the strain rate on the dynamic flow stress, the strain rate sensitivity and the failure elongation are evaluated with the experimental results. Experimental results from both the quasi-static and the high strain rate up to 3000/s are interpolated in order to construct the constitutive relation that should be applied to simulate the dynamic behavior of the turbine blade made of the Inconel 718.

The frequency of turbulent macroinstability occurrence was measured in liquids agitated in a cylindrical baffled vessel. As it has been proved by preceding experimental results of the authors, the stochastic quantity with frequency of occurrence of 10-1 to 100 s-1 is concerned. By suitable choosing the viscosity of liquids and frequency of impeller revolutins, the region of Reynolds mixing numbers was covered from the pure laminar up to fully developed turbulent regime. In addition to the equipment making it possible to record automatically the macroinstability occurrence, also the visualization method and videorecording were employed. It enabled us to describe in more detail the form of entire flow field in the agitated system and its behaviour in connection with the macroinstability occurrence. It follows from the experiments made that under turbulent regime of flow of agitated liquids the frequency of turbulent macroinstability occurrence is the same as the frequency of the primary circulation of agitated liquid.

we demonstrate a wavelength interleaved DWDM Radio-over-Fiber (ROF) system for providing 1-Gb/s OFDM signal in downlink and 1-Gb/s OOK data in uplink simultaneously. In this scheme, we use only one arrayed waveguide grating device at the remote node to realize both the de-multiplexing and multiplexing functions. The experimental results demonstrate that this scheme is feasible to the future broadband high-speed OFDM-ROF access system.
