Bonding Characteristics

The aim of this study was to characterize detailed microstructural changes and bonding characteristics and identify the formation mechanism of collision surface of Al6061–Q355 steel dissimilar welded joints via electromagnetic pulse welding (EMPW). The collision surface was observed to consist of five zones from the center to the outside. The central non-weld zone exhibited a concave and convex morphology. The welding-affected zone mainly included melting features and porous structures, representing a porous joining. The secondary weld zone presented an obvious mechanical joining characterized by shear plateaus with stripes. The primary weld zone characterized by dimples with cavity features suggested the formation of diffusion or metallurgical bonding. The impact-affected zone denoted an invalid interfacial bonding due to discontinuous spot impact. During EMPW, the impact energy and pressure affected the changes of normal velocity and tangential velocity, and in turn, influenced the interfacial deformation behavior and bonding characteristics, including the formation of micropores which continued to grow into homogeneous or uneven porous structures via cavitation, surface tension, and depressurization, along with the effect of trapped air.

Helmets reduce the frequency and severity of head and brain injuries resulting from bicycle crashes. To ensure that all bicycle helmets provide a certain level of effectiveness, helmets are required to satisfy certain standards of construction and material design before they can be sold in the market. Impact protection is the primary consideration of nearly every helmet standard. The general terms for a test for assessing impact protection involve shock absorption. A helmeted headform is dropped onto an anvil and the headform acceleration is measured. However, the test procedures of the existing standards do not properly assess the protection level of helmets against oblique impacts. To investigate bicycle helmets in a real accident scenario, this study simulated the full body of a bicyclist when free falling onto a road. This study considered the normal velocity (VN) of 5.66 m/s and tangential velocity (VT) values of 0, 5, and 10 m/s. Finite element analyses of helmet impact tests were conducted using LS-DYNA software. Moreover, the impact responses obtained using full-body and detached-headform models were compared under identical impact conditions. The analysis results obtained herein can be useful for evaluating helmet quality and guiding future developments in helmet innovation.

AbstractThe present investigation deals with the steady three-dimensional flow and heat transfer of nanofluids due to stretching sheet in the presence of magnetic field and heat source. Three types of water based nanoparticles namely, copper (Cu), aluminium oxide (Al2O3), and titanium dioxide (TiO2) are considered in this study. The temperature dependent variable thermal conductivity and thermal radiation has been introduced in the energy equation. Using suitable similarity transformations the dimensional non-linear expressions are converted into dimensionless system and are then solved numerically by Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg scheme along with well-known shooting technique. The impact of various flow parameters on axial and transverse velocities, temperature, surface frictional coefficients and rate of heat transfer coefficients are visualized both in qualitative and quantitative manners in the vicinity of stretching sheet. The results reviled that the temperature and velocity of the fluid rise with increasing values of variable thermal conductivity parameter. Also, the temperature and normal velocity of the fluid in case of Cu-water nanoparticles is more than that of Al2O3- water nanofluid. On the other hand, the axial velocity of the fluid in case of Al2O3- water nanofluid is more than that of TiO2nanoparticles. In addition, the current outcomes are matched with the previously published consequences and initiate to be a good contract as a limiting sense.

The Impact

The influence of different solidified velocities on the structure of pure aluminum during the process of refinement by Al-5Ti-0.6C master alloy was studied and the impact mechanism was discussed. The results show that at the same solidified velocity, with the increase of the amount of Al-5Ti-0.6C master alloy, in the solidified structure of pure aluminum, columnar crystals will gradually decrease, while equiaxed crystals will gradually increase. But in the case when the level of addition is the same, the faster the solidified velocity, the greater the number of equiaxed crystals will be in the ingot microstructure. The formation of equiaxed crystals is the result of the dual role of dissociation of crystal particles and heterogeneous nucleation of “TiC particle---Ti transition zone”.

Blade Shape

An extension of Martensen's method is described which permits an exact solution of the inverse or blade design problem. An equation is derived for the normal velocity distributed about a given contour when a given tangential velocity is imposed about the contour and from this normal velocity an initial arbitrarily chosen blade shape may be successively modified until a blade is found having a desired surface velocity distribution. Five examples of the method are given.

The Impact

Joining dissimilar materials to achieve lightweight design and energy efficiency has been increasingly popular. A joint formed by components of particle-reinforced metal and polymer matrix composite combines the merits of both materials. This paper is mainly focused on the research of the tensile lap shear and impact behavior of the dissimilar single-lap joints (SLJs) between SiCp/AA2124 composite and glass fiber-reinforced polypropylene (PP). The effects of out-of-plane loading applied from different surfaces of SLJs on impact responses are evaluated. Hot pressing technique is introduced to manufacture metal/polymer assembly without using any adhesive. The hole drilling effect is investigated with the idea that it may provide weight reduction and also increase the strength of the dissimilar SLJs. The results indicate that the dissimilar SLJs show more Charpy impact strength when the impact is performed on the metal-matrix composite (MMC). Mechanical properties of SLJs are adversely affected by a drilled hole in the MMC adherend.

The Impact

In this paper, the effect of graphene nanoparticle additive on the strength of simple and hybrid (rivet-bonded) single-lap joints is studied using the experimental method. Two different types of graphene with different number of layer and thicknesses are used in adhesive-graphene nanoparticle composite construction. At first, tensile tests are done on bulk specimens of adhesive with different additives. It is found that adding 0.5 wt% of graphene to the neat adhesive leads to an increase in the ultimate tensile strength of bulk specimens almost 24% and 12% for two graphene types compared to the neat adhesive. Also, the shear strength of adhesive and hybrid lap joints incorporating two types of graphene nanoparticles (types I and II) is compared to that of adhesive and hybrid joints without graphene nanoparticles. SEM results of fracture surfaces show that the inclusion of graphene nanoparticle to the adhesive increases the roughness of surfaces. Experimental results reveal that graphene nanoparticle increases the strength of bonded and hybrid joints. It is observed that, graphene with a lower thickness and number of layers has a better influence on joint strength. In fact, graphene nanoparticle type II makes a homogeneous distribution in adhesive-graphene nanoparticle composite and causes a significant increase on joint strength.
