The mathematical model for the shear stress in a polymer melt within a capillary was set up by superimposing a sine vibration of small amplitude in parallel with the extruding direction of the polymer melt. By making use of experimental equipment of the constant velocity type dynamic rheometer of capillary (CVDRC), designed by the authors, the steps required to calculate the shear stress in the polymer melt at the inside wall of the capillary under a vibration force field were also established. By measuring the instantaneous data of capillary entry pressure, capillary volume rate and their phase-difference under a superimposed vibration, the shear stress of the polymer melt at the wall of the capillary can be calculated.

SummaryAlterations in platelet aggregability may play a role in the pathogenesis of qualitative platelet defects associated with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). We circulated fresh heparinized whole blood through tubing sets coated with heparin (C group, n = 10) and through non-coated sets (N group, n = 10) as a simulated CPB circuit. Shear stress (108 dyne/cm2)-induced platelet aggregation (hSIPA), plasma von Willebrand factor (vWF) activity and platelet glycoprotein (GP) Ib expression were measured, before, during, and after this in vitro set up of circulation. In the two groups, the extent of hSIPA significantly decreased during circulation and was partially restored after circulation. Decreases in the extent of hSIPA were significantly less with use of heparin-coated circuits. There was an equivalent reduction in plasma vWF activity, in the two groups. Expression of platelet surface GP Ib decreased significantly during circulation and recovered after circulation. Reduction of surface GP Ib expression during circulation was significantly less in the C group than that in the N group. Decrease in surface GP Ib expression correlated (r = 0.88 in either group) with the magnitude of hSIPA, in the two groups. The progressive removal of surface GP Ib was mainly attributed to redistribution of GP Ib from the membrane skeleton into the cytoskeleton. Our observations suggest that use of heparin-coated circuits partly blocks the reduction of hSIPA, as a result of a lesser degree of redistribution of GP Ib.

Firstly, according to the structure characteristics of precision centrifuge, the mathematical model of its dynamic balancing system was set up, and the dynamic balancing scheme of double test surfaces, double emendation surfaces were established. Then the dynamic balance system controller of precision centrifuge was designed. Simulation results show that the controller designed can completely meet the requirements of precision centrifuge dynamic balance control system.

The working state of the five hundred-meter aperture spherical telescope (FAST) is solved using the step-wise assignment method. In this paper, the mathematical model of the cable-net support structure of the FAST is set up by the catenary equation. There are a large number of nonlinear equations and unknown parameters of the model. The nonlinear equations are solved by using the step-wise assignment method. The method is using the analytical solutions of the cable-net equations of one working state as the initial value for the next working state, from which the analytical solutions of the nonlinear equations of the cable-net for each working state of the FAST and the tension and length of each driving cable can be obtained. The suggested algorithm is quite practically well suited to study the working state of the cable-net structures of the FAST. Also, the working state analysis result of the cable-net support structure of a reduced model of the cable-net structure reflector for the FAST is given to verify the reliability of the method. In order to show the validity of the method, comparisons with another algorithm to set the initial value are presented. This method has an important guiding significance to the further study on the control of the new type of flexible cable driving mechanism, especially the FAST.

Abstract A method is given by which the response of a rotating Timoshenko beam subjected to an accelerating fixed direction force can be determined. The beam model includes the gyroscopically induced displacement transverse to the direction of the load. The solution for pinned supports is set up in general form using multi-integral transforms and the inversion is expressed in terms of convolution integrals. These are numerically integrated for a uniformly distributed load having an exponentially varying velocity function. Results are presented for the displacement under the load’s center as a function of position. Comparisons are made between the responses to a constant velocity load and a load which accelerates up to the same velocity.

This study deals with the numerical estimation of the fatigue life represented in the form of strength-life (S-N, or Wöhler) curves of metals with different crystallographic structures, namely body-centered cubic (BCC) and face-centered cubic (FCC). Their life curves are determined by analyzing the initiation of a short crack under the influence of microstructure and subsequent growth of the long crack, respectively. Micro-models containing microstructures of the materials are set up by using the finite element method (FEM) and are applied in combination with the Tanaka-Mura (TM) equation in order to estimate the number of cycles required for the crack initiation. The long crack growth analysis is conducted using the Paris law. The study shows that the crystallographic structure is not the predominant factor that determines the shape and position of the fatigue life curve in the S-N diagram, but it is rather the material parameter known as the critical resolved shear stress (CRSS). Even though it is an FCC material, the investigated austenitic stainless steel AISI 304 shows an untypically high fatigue limit (208 MPa), which is higher than the fatigue limit of the BCC vanadium-based micro-alloyed forging steel AISI 1141 (152 MPa).

ABSTRACT Flow behavior is of major importance in the extrusion processing of rubber compounds. It is evaluated by means of a series of tests on a high-pressure capillary viscometer (HCV). Adhesion between the polymer melt and the capillary wall is assumed in all current calculation models, although such adhesion does not always pertain to the case of rubber compounds. To date, no uniform model discussed in the literature on the topic extensively describes the wall slippage behavior of rubber compounds. The phenomenon of wall slippage is analyzed by determining the power-law parameters n (flow exponent) and K (consistency factor) from the flow curve in the subcritical flow range. This makes it possible to explicitly calculate first the slip velocity and then the slippage ratio relative to the total volume flow as a function of the given shear rate and temperature. The work is based on the testing of EPDM raw polymers of different molecular weights in the HCV. In addition, EPDM compounds containing either a carbon black or a softener were analyzed with regard to their flow behavior. The rheological analysis was carried out on three variously coated flow channels. It was observed that with attainment of a critical wall shear stress, the wall slippage effect becomes more pronounced; thus, occurrences of flow anomalies such as slip-stick or shark-skin significantly influence processing and flow behavior. Wall slippage effects are noticeable, however, even before the critical wall shear stress is attained.

Effects of Newtonian heating and mass diffusion on magnetohydrodynamic free convection flow over a vertical plate that applies arbitrary shear stress to the fluid is studied. The fluid is considered electrically conducting and passing through a porous medium. The influence of thermal radiation in the energy equations is also considered. General solutions of the problem are obtained in closed form using the Laplace transform technique. They satisfy the governing equations, initial and boundary conditions and can set up a huge number of exact solutions correlatives to various fluid motions. The effects of various parameters on velocity profiles are shown graphically and discussed in details
