Stiffness And Damping

A constitutive equation of the differential type is introduced to model the nonlinear viscoelastic response behavior of elastomeric bearings in large-scale system simulations for vibration assessment and component loads prediction. The model accounts for the nonlinear dependence of dynamic stiffness and damping on vibration amplitude commonly observed in the behavior of bearings made of particle-reinforced elastomers. A testing procedure for the identification of the model parameters from bearing component test data is described. The experimental and analytical results for predicting the behavior of four (4) different car bushings are presented. In an example application, the model is incorporated in an ADAMS simulation to study the dynamic behavior of a car rear suspension.

Hybrid Polymer Composite

Hybrid PTFE/epoxy composites are widely used as materials for self-lubricating spherical bearing which are used in a high-temperature environment. In the present work, zirconium diboride (ZrB2) particles are incorporated to enhance high-temperature tribological properties of PTFE/epoxy composites. Pin on disc experiment is conducted with the aid of design of experiments (DOE) using central composite-response surface methodology (RSM). Under a load of 40 N and 1.25 m/s sliding speed, the optimum content 5.95 vol% of PTFE and 5.05 vol% of ZrB2, yields an ultralow coefficient of friction (COF) in conjunction with a low wear rate of the composite. The addition of ultra-high-temperature ceramic ZrB2 particles and solid lubricant PTFE is found to enhance the thermal conductivity and improve the heat transfer thereby reducing contact temperature. The use of optimum composition of the composite is capable of reducing the wear rate and high local temperature due to friction, implying its potential use as a self-lubricating spherical bearing liner material.
