Stated Problem

A frictional sliding contact model is established for the anisotropic piezoelectric/piezomagnetic composites indented by a flat or circular stamp. The characteristic equation related to monoclinic anisotropic piezoelectric/piezomagnetic composites is of tenth-order. The stated problem is reduced to integral equations whose kernels present an unconventional singularity. Parametric studies reveal that both the volume fraction of the composites and the friction coefficient could significantly affect the tribological behaviors. Numerical results show that the surface quantities have a singularity or spike at the stamp edge, and that the magneto-electro coupling in piezoelectric/piezomagnetic composites does not exist in any single phase.

AbstractThe existing research on SiCp/Al composite machining mainly focuses on the machining parameters or surface morphology. However, the surface quality of SiCp/Al composites with a high volume fraction has not been extensively studied. In this study, 32 SiCp/Al specimens with a high volume fraction were prepared and their machining parameters measured. The surface quality of the specimens was then tested and the effect of the grinding parameters on the surface quality was analyzed. The grinding quality of the composite specimens was comprehensively analyzed taking the grinding force, friction coefficient, and roughness parameters as the evaluation standards. The best grinding parameters were obtained by analyzing the surface morphology. The results show that, a higher spindle speed should be chosen to obtain a better surface quality. The final surface quality is related to the friction coefficient, surface roughness, and fragmentation degree as well as the quantity and distribution of the defects. Lower feeding amount, lower grinding depth and appropriately higher spindle speed should be chosen to obtain better surface quality. Lower feeding amount, higher grinding depth and spindle speed should be chosen to balance grind efficiently and surface quality. This study proposes a systematic evaluation method, which can be used to guide the machining of SiCp/Al composites with a high volume fraction.

The dynamic properties of nanofluids have made them an area of intense research during the past few decades. In this article, flow of nonaligned stagnation point nanofluid is investigated. Copper–water based nanofluid in the presence of temperature-dependent viscosity is taken into account. The governing nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equations transformed by partial differential equations are solved numerically by using fourth-order Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg integration technique. Effects of variable viscosity parameter on velocity and temperature profiles of pure fluid and copper–water nanofluid are analyzed, discussed, and presented graphically. Streamlines, skin friction coefficients, and local heat flux of nanofluid under the impact of variable viscosity parameter, stretching ratio, and solid volume fraction of nanoparticles are also displayed and discussed. It is observed that an increase in solid volume fraction of nanoparticles enhances the magnitude of normal skin friction coefficient, tangential skin friction coefficient, and local heat flux. Viscosity parameter is found to have decreasing effect on normal and tangential skin friction coefficients whereas it has a positive influence on local heat flux.

Polybutyl acrylate (PBA) grafted alumina nanoparticles were synthesized. Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) nanocomposites reinforced with PBA grafted nanoparticles were prepared by compression molding. The effects of PBA grafted nanoparticles on the tribological behavior of the PTFE nanocomposites were investigated on a tribometer. The abrasion mechanisms of the PTFE nanocomposites were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of the abraded surfaces. The results show that the addition of PBA grafted nanoparticles maintains low friction coefficient and improves the wear resistance of the PTFE nanocomposites.

Incorporation of metallic elements, titanium and copper, into carbonaceous mesophase (CM) was performed through mechanical alloying in a ball mill apparatus. The structures of the raw CM as well as the Ti/Cu-added CM were characterized by X-ray diffraction. The tribological behavior of the Ti/Cu-added CM used as lubricating additives was investigated by using a high temperature friction and wear tester. The results show that, compared with the raw CM, the Ti/Cu-added CM exhibits a drop in the crystallinity and a transition to the amorphous. The Ti/Cu-added CM used as lubricating additive displays an obvious high temperature anti-friction and wear resistance effect, and the lager the applied load, the lower the friction coefficient and the wear severity.

The effect of volume fraction of ferrite on the mechanical properties including strength, plasticity and wok hardening was systematically investigated in X80 pipeline steel in order to improve the plasticity. The microstructures with different volume fraction of ferrite and bainite were obtained by heat-treatment processing and the mechanical properties were tested. The work hardening behavior was analyzed by C-J method. The results show that the small amount of ferrite could effectively improve the plasticity. The work hardening ability and the ratio of yield/tensile strength with two phases of ferrite/bainite would be obviously better than that with single phase of bainite. The improvement of plasticity could be attributed to the ferrite in which more plastic deformation was afforded.

AbstractThe present study deals with the free torsional vibration of a composite conical shell made of a polymeric matrix reinforced with carbon nanotubes (CNTs). Distribution of CNTs across the thickness of the conical shell may be uniform or functionally graded. Five different cases of functionally graded reinforcements are considered. First-order shear deformable shell theory compatible with the Donnell kinematic assumptions is used to establish the motion equations of the shell. These equations are two coupled equations which should be treated as an eigenvalue problem. The generalized differential quadrature method is used to obtain a numerical solution for the torsional frequency parameters and the associated mode shapes of the shell. After validating the results of this study for the cases of isotropic homogeneous cone and annular plates, parametric studies are carried out to analyze the influences of geometrical characteristics of the shell, volume fraction of CNTs, and grading profile of the CNTs. It is shown that volume fraction of CNTs is an important factor with regard to torsional frequencies of the shell; however, grading profile does not change the torsional frequencies significantly.

This paper used graphite nanoparticles with the diameter of 35 and 80 nm and LB2000 vegetable based oil to prepare graphite oil-based nanofluids with different volume fractions by two-step method. The tribological properties of graphite nanoparticles as LB2000 vegetable based oil additive were investigated with a pin-on-disk friction and wear tester. Field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) were used to examine the morphology and the content of some typical elements of wear scar, respectively. Further, the lubrication mechanism of graphite nanoparticles was explored. It was found that graphite nanoparticles as vegetable based oil additive could remarkably improve friction-reducing and antiwear properties of pure oil. With the increase of volume fraction of graphite nanoparticles, the friction coefficient and the wear volume of disk decreased. At the same volume fraction, the smaller particles, the lower friction coefficient and wear volume. The main reason for the improvement in friction-reducing and antiwear properties of vegetable based oil using graphite nanoparticles was that graphite nanoparticles could form a physical deposition film on the friction surfaces.

AbstractWe investigate in detail the problem of confined pressure-driven laminar flow of neutrally buoyant non-Brownian suspensions using a frictional rheology based on the recent proposal of Boyer et al. (Phys. Rev. Lett., vol. 107 (18), 2011, 188301). The friction coefficient (shear stress over particle normal stress) and solid volume fraction are taken as functions of the dimensionless viscous number $I$ defined as the ratio between the fluid shear stress and the particle normal stress. We clarify the contributions of the contact and hydrodynamic interactions on the evolution of the friction coefficient between the dilute and dense regimes reducing the phenomenological constitutive description to three physical parameters. We also propose an extension of this constitutive framework from the flowing regime (bounded by the maximum flowing solid volume fraction) to the fully jammed state (the random close packing limit). We obtain an analytical solution of the fully developed flow in channel and pipe for the frictional suspension rheology. The result can be transposed to dry granular flow upon appropriate redefinition of the dimensionless number $I$. The predictions are in excellent agreement with available experimental results for neutrally buoyant suspensions, when using the values of the constitutive parameters obtained independently from stress-controlled rheological measurements. In particular, the frictional rheology correctly predicts the transition from Poiseuille to plug flow and the associated particles migration with the increase of the entrance solid volume fraction. We also numerically solve for the axial development of the flow from the inlet of the channel/pipe toward the fully developed state. The available experimental data are in good agreement with our numerical predictions, when using an accepted phenomenological description of the relative phase slip obtained independently from batch-settlement experiments. The solution of the axial development of the flow notably provides a quantitative estimation of the entrance length effect in a pipe for suspensions when the continuum assumption is valid. Practically, the latter requires that the predicted width of the central (jammed) plug is wider than one particle diameter. A simple analytical expression for development length, inversely proportional to the gap-averaged diffusivity of a frictional suspension, is shown to encapsulate the numerical solution in the entire range of flow conditions from dilute to dense.

The high-temperature deformation behavior of the single-phase α (Ti-7.0Al-1.5V) and α + β (Ti-6Al-4V) alloy were determined and compared within the framework of self-consistent scheme at various temperature ranges. For this purpose, isothermal hot compression tests were conducted at temperatures between 650°C ~ 950°C to determine the effect of α/β phase volume fraction on average flow stress under hot-working condition. The flow behavior of α phase was estimated from the compression test results of single-phase α alloy whose chemical composition is close to that of α phase of Ti-6Al-4V alloy. On the other hand, the flow stress of β phase in Ti-6Al-4V was predicted by using self-consistent method. The flow stress of α phase was higher than that of β phase above 750°C, while the β phase revealed higher flow stress than α phase at 650°C. Also, at temperature above 750°C, the predicted strain rate of β phase was higher than that of α phase. It was found that the relative strength between α and β phase significantly varied with temperature.
