The Impact

During LATP (laser automated tape placement), the compaction roller contacts the prepreg and affects the pressure distribution directly. Moreover, the design parameters of the roller are optimized with the aim of improving pressure uniformity. This paper examines the impact of the contact line and surface that depends on the compaction force, the design of the roller, the angle of inclination and the angle of inclination of the strip. These factors significantly affect the expansion of the tape, and it is important to determine it to avoid side effects in the production of composites (formation of gaps or overlaps). Their presence increases the percentage of pores of the final material and thus reduces the mechanical properties. The results show that the pressure uniformity can be improved significantly by design optimization of the roller, which indicates that higher bond quality between layers is achieved. The lower the speed and higher the compact force in this technology give better intimate contact with a lower percentage of voids and good mechanical characteristics.

AbstractThe use of dynamic viscosity/time (temperature) cure curves is seen as a powerful technique to quantify formulation and resin design parameters. The behaviour of different thermoset powder coating systems, epoxy/polyester (50/50, 40/60 and 30/70) as well as the impact of the filler, the curing temperature and the frequency upon gel-time have been examined based upon the rheological measurements and compared with PE/TGIC systems. Two disparate methodologies have been utilized to determine gel-time. The behaviour of dissimilar systems bearing different formulations has been compared by means of the non-isothermal DSC test. The effects of resin percentage and the formulation on physical and mechanical properties of coating have been studied.

The Impact

Utilizing general finite element software ANSYS, the finite element computing model of the steel spatial tubular joint is built, which is used to analyze the mechanical properties under dead loads through changing its design parameters. According to the obtained and compared consequences, the different design parameters including stiffening ring thickness, cross-shaped ribbed plate thickness and stiffening ring length exert different influence on ultimate bearing capacity of the steel spatial tubular joint. Specifically, the ultimate bearing capacity under dead loads is affected by setting stiffening ring and changing cross-shaped ribbed plate thickness significantly. In contrast, if the thickness and length of stiffening ring are changed, the impact is insignificant. The results and conclusion can provide reference which is useful to optimize the design of steel spatial tubular joint in such category.

Investigation presents an experimental study of mechanical properties of hybrid bio-composites made from man-made cellulose fibres and soft wood microfiller embedded into polypropylene homopolymer matrix at different weight contents. Mechanical properties such as elastic modulus, tensile strength, and impact resistance of the reinforced composites determined for various total weight contents of both biobased fillers were used as the design parameters. The problem was solved by planning the experiments and response surfaces method. The results demonstrate that using the both filler types enhance the mechanical properties. The tensile modulus increases by ~115%. The bio-composite with the highest weight content of man-made cellulose fibres and the lowest content of soft wood microfibers possesses maximum tensile strength (more 66 MPa). Addition of man-made cellulose fibres demonstrate a significant influence on the impact resistance of the investigated composites.

The paper describes the production and the mechanical characteristics of composites made completely from renewable raw materials, the corn straw fiber and the biodegradable plastic, poly(lactic acid). The effect of straw fiber content on the mechanical properties of the composites was studied and the optimum mass fraction was 15%. To enhance the mechanical properties of the composites, two different methods were tested. Maleic anhydride as the compatilizer was introduced into the composites but the changes of the mechanical properties were small. While the other method, pre-treatment for straw fiber before blending, the mechanical properties increased obviously. The tensile strength and the impact strength were 35.6 MPa and 1.67 kJ/m2, respectively.

This paper describes the background, test methodology, and experimental results associated with the testing and analysis of quasi-static compression testing of additively manufactured open-cell lattice structures. The study aims to examine the effect of lattice topology, cell size, cell density, and surface thickness on the mechanical properties of lattice structures. Three lattice designs were chosen, the Diamond, I-WP, and Primitive Triply Periodic Minimal Surfaces (TPMSs). Uniaxial compression tests were conducted for every combination of the three lattice designs, three cell sizes, three cell densities, and three surface thicknesses. In order to perform an efficient experiment and gain the most information possible, a four-factor statistical experimental design was planned and followed throughout testing. A full four-factor statistical model was produced, along with a reduced interactions model, separating the model by the significance of each factor and interaction terms. The impact of each factor was analyzed and interpreted from the resulting data, and then conclusions were made about the effects of the design parameters on the resultant mechanical performance.

The purpose of the conducted experimental studies is to examine the effect of various influences on the object of study. These effects are called factors. Some of them vary while examining of the object and then they are called variable factors. Each factor takes one or more values in the experiment and then they are called factor levels. The set of values of this factor is called range of factor values – the smallest interval, where are all the values accepted by this factor in the experiment. According to GOST 19222-84, the dependence of the physical-mechanical characteristics of sawdust slag concrete (grade M10) on the specific gravity (share) of wet sawdust of coniferous species and ash-slag mixture in the composition was studied. Regression analysis was used to build a mathematical model of the process with quantitative factors, to verify its adequacy, and to assess the impact of each variable factor on the process. To obtain regression dependencies, a composite second-order B-plan was implemented.

We study experimentally the influence of mass fraction of L-20 hardener cold cure on mechanical properties of epoxy diane resin ED-20. We measure the hardness, tensile strength, bending strength and impact strength of resin at different values of the hardener mass fraction. It is found that the ratio hardener mass fraction of 1:0.9 leads to the highest values of the hardness, tensile strength, compressive strength and bending strength. The impact viscosity is maximum at the ratio hardener mass fraction of 1:0.8. The optimal ratio of a non-toxic safe hardener to the resin is derived based on obtained mechanical characteristics.

Methods of design and technological demands of construction are expounded for the structure with pre-stress tubular pile and anchor in the engineering of foundation pit. The design parameters for the pit are demonstrated by the means of FEM, and its feasibility is proved by the engineering practice. In the model of FEM, some pressure forces are imposed on the middle beam to simulate the anchor’s real mechanical properties. Taking into account the top ring beam and pre-stress tubular pile embedded each other very well, the straight beam element is adopted to simulate mechanical properties both of them. And the non-thickness interface element is also adopted to simulate the mechanical characteristics between the surrounding soil and the retaining structure, These experiences of design have important denotation for other similar foundation pit engineering.
