Abstract For many structures, their service environment is very strict, and the requirements for the impact resistance of materials are very high. Therefore, the dynamic testing method has important scientific significance and application value for practical engineering. Split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) is one of the most common experimental methods for obtaining dynamic mechanical properties of materials. However, there is no uniform standard for the size of the bars and specimens used in the test. Theoretically, the size has little influence on the experimental results, but it has not been proved by experiments. This paper mainly studies the influence of device/specimen sizes of split Hopkinson pressure bar through experiments, it is demonstrated that the sizes of bars and specimen have little effect on experimental results.

Exoskeletons have been introduced in industrial environments to prevent overload or repetitive stress injuries in workers. However, due to the lack of public detailed information about most of the commercial exoskeletons, it is necessary to further assess their load capacity and evolution over time, as their performance may change with use. We present the design and construction of a controlled device to measure the torque of industrial exoskeletons, along with the results of static and dynamic testing of an exoskeleton model. A step motor in the test bench moves the exoskeleton arm in a pre-defined path at a prescribed speed. The force measured with a beam load cell located at the interface between the exoskeleton arm and the test bench is used to derive the torque. The proposed test bench can be easily modified to allow different exoskeleton models to be tested under the same conditions.

In this paper, an innovative way of calculating the Gurson–Tvergaard–Needleman parameter has been developed for AA 6063. AA 6063 is an aluminum alloy comprising the alloying ingredients magnesium and silicon. The Aluminum Association maintains the standard that governs its composition. It has strong mechanical properties and may be heat treated and welded. Image processing technique has been used to calculate the damage constant for the AA 6063. The image of the sample has been taken under a microscope of undeformed and fractured material. Then the images are analyzed using the Open CV tool in a python open-source environment. The initial and final void fraction of the sheet has been calculated. Damage models, particularly the Gurson–Tvergaard–Needleman (GTN) model, are widely used in numerical simulation of material deformations. Each damage model has some constants which must be identified for each material. The direct identification methods are costly and time-consuming. A combination of experimental, numerical simulation and optimization have been used to determine the constants in the current work. Numerical simulation of the dynamic test was performed utilizing the constants obtained from quasi-static experiments. The results showed a high precision in predicting the specimen's profile in the dynamic testing.

Purpose This study aims to discuss the determination of the unknown in-plane mechanical material properties of printed circuit boards (PCBs) by correlating the results from dynamic testing and finite element (FE) models using the response surface method (RSM). Design/methodology/approach The first 10 resonant frequencies and vibratory mode shapes are measured using modal analysis with hammer testing experiment, and hence, systematically compared with finite element analysis (FEA) results. The RSM is consequently used to minimize the cumulative error between dynamic testing and FEA results by continuously modifying the FE model, to acquire material properties of PCBs. Findings Great agreement is shown when comparing FEA to measurements, the optimum in-plane material properties were identified, and hence, verified. Originality/value This paper used FEA and RSMs along with modal measurements to obtain in-plane material properties of PCBs. The methodology presented here can be easily generalized and repeated for different board designs and configurations.

Observation of dynamic testing by means of X-ray computed tomography (CT) and in-situ loading devices has proven its importance in material analysis already, yielding detailed 3D information on the internal structure of the object of interest and its changes during the experiment. However, the acquisition of the tomographic projections is, in general, a time-consuming task. The standard method for such experiments is the time-lapse CT, where the loading is suspended for the CT scan. On the other hand, modern X-ray tubes and detectors allow for shorter exposure times with an acceptable image quality. Consequently, the experiment can be designed in a way so that the mechanical test is running continuously, as well as the rotational platform, and the radiographic projections are taken one after another in a fast, free-running mode. Performing this so-called on-the-fly CT, the time for the experiment can be reduced substantially, compared to the time-lapse CT. In this paper, the advanced pore morphology (APM) foam elements were used as the test objects for in-situ X-ray microtomography experiments, during which series of CT scans were acquired, each with the duration of 12 s. The contrast-to-noise ratio and the full-width-half-maximum parameters are used for the quality assessment of the resultant 3D models. A comparison to the 3D models obtained by time-lapse CT is provided.

Drillstrings often vibrate severely and tend to twist off during hard rock drilling. Therefore, dynamic testing is crucial in the design of drilling systems. Designers tend to employ the most powerful analytical tools, using the most elaborate electronic computers, however, actual testing is required to the designed system function optimally. In cases of enormous drilling systems, complex dynamic tests are often performed on a smaller-scale replica of the system, referred to as the model, which is more convenient, cost-effective, and time-effective. This study, therefore, describes the establishment of similar conditions among structural systems, with the main objective of studying the similitude theory’s applicability in establishing the necessary similar conditions for designing scaled-down models to predict the drillstring’s vibration behavior. The scaling laws for all the relevant parameters regarding the scaled drillstring model, as well as the full-size drillstring system, were derived from the respective equations of motion. The scaling factors for all relevant parameters are determined using the theory of dimensional analysis. In addition, the geometry distorted similitude theory is revisited and employed to overcome the physical limitation and develop the necessary similar conditions for dynamic testing of the scaled drillstring. Meanwhile, the similitude relationship between the prototype and the model was validated with a case study using lumped segments bond graph modeling and simulation software.

While the existing research provides a wealth of information about the static properties of RTK receivers, less is known about their dynamic properties, although it is clear that the vast majority of field operations take place when the machine is moving. A new method using a MRA for the evaluation of RTK receivers in movement with a precise circular reference trajectory (r = 3 m) was proposed. This reference method was developed with the greatest possible emphasis on the positional, time and repeatable accuracy of ground truth. Four phases of the measurement scenario (static, acceleration, uniform movement and deceleration) were used in order to compare four different types of RTK receiver horizontal operation accuracy over three measurement days. The worst result of one of the receivers was measured at SSR = 13.767% in dynamic movement. Since the same “low-cost” receiver without an INS unit had SSR = 98.14% in previous static measurements, so it can be assumed that the motion had a very significant effect on the dynamic properties of this receiver. On the other hand, the best “high-end” receiver with an INS unit had SSR = 96.938% during the dynamic testing scenarios. The median values of the deviations were always better during uniform movements than during acceleration or braking. In general, the positioning accuracy was worse in the dynamic mode than in the static one for all the receivers. Error indicators (RMSerr and Me) were found several times higher in the dynamic mode than in the static one. These facts should be considered in the future development of modern agricultural machinery and technology.

Приведено исследование зависимости газодинамических характеристик стенда от применяемого материала трубопровода. Oсновополагающими факторами, влияющими на работоспособность стенда, являются выходные параметры - давление и расход рабочего тела, которые напрямую зависят от потерь давления на трение, создаваемого элементами стенда. Для оценки степени влияния материалов на потери стенда выбраны два вида труб: полипропиленовые и металлические. Аналитические расчёты потери давления рассматриваемых трубопроводов из различного материала показали, что трубопроводы из полипропилена предпочтительнее. Однако при проведении эксперимента получены противоположные данные, которые показали, что в полипропиленовых магистралях возможно присутствие значительного количества диафрагм: в местах пайки труб, образовавшихся в процессе изготовления. Именно этот факт способствует существенному повышению значений сопротивлений в полипропиленовых трубопроводах на 20 % по сравнению со стальными трубами, где диафрагмы отсутствуют. В результате проведения исследования был введен коэффициент, учитывающий влияние диафрагм полипропиленового трубопровода при аналитическом расчете на сопротивление. Для сохранения более точных снимаемых значений с газодинамических стендов целесообразнее использовать трубопроводы из металла, в которых рассчитать потери возможно с отклонениями до 3 % Here we give the study of the dependence of the gas-dynamic characteristics of the stand on the pipeline material used. The fundamental factors affecting the performance of the stand are the output parameters-the pressure and flow rate of the working fluid, which directly depend on the friction pressure losses created by the elements of the stand. To assess the degree of influence of materials on the losses of the stand, we selected two types of pipes: polypropylene and metal. Analytical calculations of the pressure loss of the considered pipelines made of various materials have shown that pipelines made of polypropylene are preferable. However, during the experiment, we obtained the opposite data, which showed that a significant number of diaphragms may be present in polypropylene pipelines: in the places of soldering of pipes formed during the manufacturing process. This fact contributes to a significant increase in the resistance values in polypropylene pipelines by 20 % compared to steel pipes, where there are no diaphragms. As a result of the study, we introduced a coefficient that takes into account the influence of polypropylene pipeline diaphragms in the analytical calculation of resistance. To preserve more accurate values taken from gas-dynamic stands, it is more expedient to use metal pipelines in which it is possible to calculate losses with deviations of up to 3 %
