For the study of the metal-rubber which is a new material used as damper component. The compression mechanical properties of metal-net rubber were studied. Through the static compression test of metal-net rubber, the influence of some factors such as: compression amount, relative density, wire diameter and bearing area. The method is variable-controlling. Experimental results show that along with the increase of the amount of compression, the nonlinear mechanical properties of metal-net rubber boosts; with the increase of relative density, the compressive capacity of metal-net rubber improves. The wire diameter influences the nonlinear mechanical properties of metal-net rubber, the larger the wire diameter, the compressive capacity is higher; the bearing area is greater, the compressive capacity and energy dissipation performance are better.

When the rock burst occurs, energy absorption support is an important method to solve the impact failure. To achieve constant resistance performance of energy absorption device, as an important component of the support, the mechanical properties of one kind of prefolded tube is analyzed by quasi-static compression test. The deformation process of compression test is simulated by ABAQUS and plastic strain nephogram of the numerical model are studied. It is found that the main factors affecting the fluctuation of force-displacement curve is the stiffness of concave side wall. The original tube is improved to constant resistance by changing the side wall. The friction coefficient affects the folding order and form of the energy absorbing device. Lifting the concave side wall stiffness can improve the overall stiffness of energy absorption device and slow down the falling section of force-displacement curve. It is always squeezed by adjacent convex side wall in the process of folding, with large plastic deformation. Compared with the original one, the improved prefolded tube designed in this paper can keep the maximum bearing capacity ( Pmax), increase the total energy absorption ( E), improve the specific energy absorption (SEA), and decrease the variance ( S2) of force-displacement curve.

Industrially processed doped-tungsten wires in the as-drawn condition have essentially a <110>-fibre texture with attractive mechanical properties. The main objectives of the present work are to investigate (I) if any textural changes occur as the wire diameter decreases and (II) if such changes influence the mechanical behaviour of the wire. A wire of about ∅1.5mm is drawn to about ∅0.15mm following a standard industrial route and samples were collected from five intermediate drawing passes. Bulk texture measurements using X-radiations were then carried on the transverse sections of the wires and texture characteristics such as volume fraction of textural components and sharpness index were quantified with respect to the wire diameter. It was observed that the texture in the as-drawn wires remains chiefly the same <110>-fibre as the wire diameter decreases. However, the sharpness of texture reaches a maximum at a certain diameter and decreases with further decrease in the wire diameter. An explanation is offered based on the concept of deformation zone geometry. An attempt was also made to determine if texture weakening has any effect on the mechanical properties of the wire at room temperature.

The warpage prediction accuracy of the simulation software depends on part geometry, material model and methodology. However, the material model in the existing simulation software’s does not consider factors such as nonlinear mechanical properties, temperature dependent behaviour, viscoelastic behaviour and transient description of warpage leading to less accuracy. Using an integrative simulation approach, BASF has developed Ultrasim® tool to overcome limitations in the material model of existing simulation software. In the new material model thermomechanical properties, stress relaxation behaviour and nonlinear mechanical properties were considered and this new material model is added to Ultrasim® tool. The model also considers time dependent descriptions of the warpage starting from packing phase of the moulding process, followed by actual ejection and cooling. In this paper warpage results predicted through new integrative simulation approach and existing simulation approach are compared with actual experimental results for 50% glass filled polyamide material (Ultramid®A3WG10). The results revealed that warpage values predicted by integrative simulation based Ultrasim® tool are closer to actual experimental results compared to values predicted by existing simulation technologies. Therefore an integrative simulation approach can be used prior to making real parts to reduce manufacturing cost.

The metal rubber is a kind of material for vibration control. In this paper, experimental research on characteristics of energy dissipation of metal rubber is exploited, and the relation between metal rubber stiffness and the amplitude of relative density and load. The relative between relative density and characteristics of energy dissipation is researched, in the excitation of displacement and load respectively. By comparing variation of the deformation and load with time, we found that the cycle of deformation and load is the same, but the deformation is still lag behind load. The research provided a basis for the application of metal rubber.

In view of the problems of ordinary rubber seals, such as high- and low-temperature resistance, easy aging, and insufficient load-bearing performance, O-type metal rubber seals with large ring-to-diameter ratio were prepared by the cold stamping method using stainless steel wire as raw material. The effects of heat treatment and porosity on the compression and tensile properties of test samples were investigated. Under uniaxial compression testing, it was found that the test sample had typical hysteresis characteristics, and the loss factor and energy dissipation of the sample with the same size and different porosity increased with the decrease of porosity. The loss factor and energy dissipation of the heat-treated sample were lower than those of the untreated sample. Thus, the smaller the porosity, the greater the change of loss factor and energy dissipation. Under uniaxial tensile testing, obvious stage changes were found during the tensile process, which included a linear elasticity stage, the formation and development stage of wire breakage, the one-by-one fracture stage of wires, and the complete failure stage of the sample. The yield strength, ultimate tensile strength, and modulus of elasticity of four samples with different porosity were measured, and it was found that the three parameters increased with the decrease of porosity. Moreover, the thermal treatment conductivity increased with the decrease of porosity. The aforementioned three parameters were generally increased. This indicated that metal rubber materials have good mechanical properties under high-temperature environments, which effectively solves the problem of vulnerability to aging and failure of ordinary rubbers under normal working conditions and has strong practical engineering significance.

The article presents the results of studies on the production of wire with a diameter of 0.5 mm from aluminum alloy 01417 with a content of rare-earth metals (REM) in the amount of 7-9% for aircraft construction needs. The deformation modes, the experimental technique and equipment for the implementation of the proposed technology described. The wire was obtained by drawing and bar rolling with subsequent drawing from a rod with a diameter of 5 mm, obtained previously using the process of combined rolling-extruding (CRE) from a continuous ingot with a diameter of 12 mm, cast in an electromagnetic mold (EMM). The wire obtained by the presented technology was subjected to 4 different heat treatment modes with annealing temperatures from 350 to 500 °C and holding time of 1 h in the furnace to achieve mechanical and electrophysical properties corresponding to TS 1-809-1038-2018. The level of strength and plastic properties obtained in the course of research required only one intermediate annealing. The microstructure of the wire was investigated and the modes were revealed that made it possible to obtain the required level of mechanical properties and electrical resistivity, satisfying TS 1-809-1038-2018.

Although meta-generalized-gradient approximations (meta-GGAs) are believed potentially the most accurate among the efficient first-principles calculations, the performance has not been accessed on the nonlinear mechanical properties of two-dimensional nanomaterials. Graphene, like two-dimensional silicon carbide g-SiC, has a wide direct band-gap with applications in high-power electronics and solar energy. Taken g-SiC as a paradigm, we have investigated the performance of meta-GGA functionals on the nonlinear mechanical properties under large strains, both compressive and tensile, along three deformation modes using Strongly Constrained and Appropriately Normed Semilocal Density Functional (SCAN) as an example. A close comparison suggests that the nonlinear mechanics predicted from SCAN are very similar to that of Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof (PBE) formulated functional, a standard Density Functional Theory (DFT) functional. The improvement from SCAN calculation over PBE calculation is minor, despite the considerable increase of computing demand. This study could be helpful in selection of density functionals in simulations and modeling of mechanics of materials.

AbstractThe rapid development of high-speed rail requires copper contact wire that simultaneously possesses excellent electrical conductivity, thermal stability and mechanical properties. Unfortunately, these are generally mutually exclusive properties. Here, we demonstrate directional optimization of microstructure and overcome the strength-conductivity tradeoff in copper wire. We use rotary swaging to prepare copper wire with a fiber texture and long ultrafine grains aligned along the wire axis. The wire exhibits a high electrical conductivity of 97% of the international annealed copper standard (IACS), a yield strength of over 450 MPa, high impact and wear resistances, and thermal stability of up to 573 K for 1 h. Subsequent annealing enhances the conductivity to 103 % of IACS while maintaining a yield strength above 380 MPa. The long grains provide a channel for free electrons, while the low-angle grain boundaries between ultrafine grains block dislocation slip and crack propagation, and lower the ability for boundary migration.

As a stimulus-sensitive material, the difference in composition, fabrication process, and influencing factors will have a great effect on the mechanical properties of a superelastic Ni-Ti shape memory alloy (SMA) wire, so the seismic performance of the self-centering steel brace with SMA wires may not be accurately obtained. In this paper, the cyclic tensile tests of a kind of SMA wire with a 1 mm diameter and special element composition were tested under multi-working conditions, which were pretreated by first tensioning to the 0.06 strain amplitude for 40 cycles, so the mechanical properties of the pretreated SMA wires can be simulated in detail. The accuracy of the numerical results with the improved model of Graesser’s theory was verified by a comparison to the experimental results. The experimental results show that the number of cycles has no significant effect on the mechanical properties of SMA wires after a certain number of cyclic tensile training. With the loading rate increasing, the pinch effect of the hysteresis curves will be enlarged, while the effective elastic modulus and slope of the transformation stresses in the process of loading and unloading are also increased, and the maximum energy dissipation capacity of the SMA wires appears at a loading rate of 0.675 mm/s. Moreover, with the initial strain increasing, the slope of the transformation stresses in the process of loading is increased, while the effective elastic modulus and slope of the transformation stresses in the process of unloading are decreased, and the maximum energy dissipation capacity appears at the initial strain of 0.0075. In addition, a good agreement between the test and numerical results is obtained by comparing with the hysteresis curves and energy dissipation values, so the numerical model is useful to predict the stress–strain relations at different stages. The test and numerical results will also provide a basis for the design of corresponding self-centering steel dampers.
