Mathematical modelling of textiles subjected to one-directional tensile forces is presented. The models include the straightening of fibres at the beginning, accompanied by the compression of neighbouring fibres, and finally the elongation of the material of fibres when the straightening stops growing. As the result of fibres stretching, the transverse compressive forces hold all the fibres together and are responsible for maintaining the friction forces. Two models are proposed: the rhombus, representing perpendicular fibres, and the helix, representing parallel fibres. The final equations describing both models are found to be the same. Calculations demonstrating the behaviour of the model under dynamic loading were performed. The results are illustrated graphically and discussed.

The results of the research of structure and properties of a composite compact from 13 Cr – 2 Мо and BN powders depending on the concentration of boron nitride are provided. It is shown that adding boron nitride in an amount of more than 2% by weight of the charge mixture leads to the formation of extended grain boundary porosity and finely dispersed BN layers in the structure, which provides a high level of wearing properties of the material. The effect of boron nitride concentration on physical and mechanical properties is determined. It was found that the introduction of a small amount of BN (up to 2 % by weight) into the compacts leads to an increase in plasticity, bending strength, and toughness by reducing the friction forces between the metal powder particles during pressing and a more complete grain boundary diffusion process during sintering. The formation of a regulated structure-phase composition of powder compacts of 13 Cr – 2 Mо – BN when the content of boron nitride changes in them allows us to provide the specified physical and mechanical properties in a wide range. The obtained results of studies of the physical and mechanical characteristics of the developed material allow us to reasonably choose the necessary composition of the powder compact for sealing structures of the flow part of steam turbines, depending on their operating conditions.

The tensile behaviors of corroded steel bars are important in the capacity evaluation of corroded reinforced concrete structures. The present paper studies the mechanical behavior of the corroded high strength reinforcing steel bars under static and dynamic loading. High strength reinforcing steel bars were corroded by using accelerated corrosion methods and the tensile tests were carried out under different strain rates. The results showed that the mechanical properties of corroded high strength steel bars were strain rate dependent, and the strain rate effect decreased with the increase of corrosion degree. The decreased nominal yield and ultimate strengths were mainly caused by the reduction of cross-sectional areas, and the decreased ultimate deformation and the shortened yield plateau resulted from the intensified stress concentration at the nonuniform reduction. Based on the test results, reduction factors were proposed to relate the tensile behaviors with the corrosion degree and strain rate for corroded bars. A modified Johnson-Cook strength model of corroded high strength steel bars under dynamic loading was proposed by taking into account the influence of corrosion degree. Comparison between the model and test results showed that proposed model properly describes the dynamic response of the corroded high strength rebars.

The importance of disturbance and remoulding to the alteration of mechanical properties of sensitive soils has been well documented in the geotechnical literature both in terms of laboratory and field behaviours. Man-made transient dynamic input such as dynamite blasting, heavy vehicles, and train movement have been suspected of being capable of causing a reduction in the in situ strength parameters of sensitive clays. A laboratory test program was undertaken to determine whether dynamic loading at peak stress levels below normal failure strength caused similar changes in the mechanical properties, and specifically to quantify the phenomena.In order to simulate highly overconsolidated conditions most of the tests were carried out under conditions of no confining pressure, although supplemental data were obtained from consolidated undrained tests. Some of the variables examined in this program were confining pressure, mean deviatoric stress, cyclic deviatoric stress, cyclic strain, number of applications, frequency, and reference strength. In order to compare the effect of dynamic input with the long-term creep phenomena, a simultaneous constant load program was undertaken.In general terms, the study indicates that under the prestated laboratory test conditions no major reduction in peak strength was found under dynamic loading, and that failure would occur at comparative stress levels under dead-load conditions, but required a greater time. In addition, examination of the sample after failure revealed that any remoulding of the sample appeared to be restricted to the area adjacent to the shear zone.

Selection of a suitable thermal aging process could render desirable mechanical properties of the rubbers or blended rubbers. In this work, the effect of the aging processes on the mechanical properties and activation energies of natural rubbers (NR) and NR/chloroprene rubbers (CR) blends with low CR contents (5–10%) was investigated. Three aging processes including heat aging (at 110°C for 22 hours), mechanical aging (under dynamic loading to 140% strain for 16000 cycles), and complex aging (heat and mechanical aging) were studied. The results revealed that the compatibility of CR in natural rubber matrix had a significant effect on the dynamic properties of the blended rubber and negligible effect on the static properties. The changes in activation energies of the blended rubber during aging processes were calculated using Arrhenius relation. The calculated changes (ΔUc, ΔUd, and ΔUT) in activation energies were consistent with the results of mechanical properties of the blended rubber. Interestingly, the change in activation energies using complex aging conditions (ΔUc) was mostly equal to the total changes in activation energies calculated separately from heat aging (ΔUT) and mechanical aging (ΔUd) conditions. This indicates that, in complex aging conditions, the heat and dynamic loading factors act independently on the properties of the blended rubber.
