Analysis Scheme

During the starting operation of magnetic rigid disks, a stiction phenomenon characterized by a high friction force may be encountered due to the smoothness of the contacting surfaces and the small thickness of the lubricant film. Since friction measurement using a force transducer yields a signal proportional to the slider displacement, the real friction force at the head-disk interface cannot be measured directly. In the present study, a dynamic data analysis scheme is developed to obtain the real friction force as a function of time based on the measured apparent friction force. Electric contact resistance measurements demonstrate that the transition from static to kinetic friction occurs before the apparent friction force reaches a maximum value. Assuming a constant acceleration of the disk, the relative slip velocity at the contact interface is obtained as a function of time. The relationship between the shear stress and shear strain rate for a relatively thick lubricant film is found to be approximately linear up to a critical value of the shear stress. Due to the extremely high shear strain rates, the maximum real friction force can be significantly greater than the maximum static friction force.

Apparent Shear Rate

Previous friction measurements in the magnetic head-disk interface (HDI) indicated some anomalous friction force behavior with low sliding speeds (.25 mm/s to 0.25 m/s) and lubricant film thicknesses in the range of 20–80 nm, showing decreasing friction force with increasing apparent shear rate. The physical explanation for such behavior has not yet been established. Possible explanations for such behavior have included dramatic shear thinning, interfacial slip and partial loss of contact with the lubricant film due to slider tipping. In the present study, we investigate the possibility of slider tipping as an explanation for the decreasing friction force with increasing sliding speed. Measurements with an optical probe indicate that slider tipping does not occur for the conditions tested. Numerical analysis of slider equilibrium also supports this conclusion.

Examination of the past and present behaviour of the Erebus Glacier tongue over the last 60 years indicates that a major calving from the tongue appears to be imminent. Calculations of the regime of the tongue indicate that bottom melt rates may exceed 1 m a−1. By successive mapping of the ice tongue between the years 1947 and 1970, longitudinal strain-rates were determined using the change in distance between a set of 15 teeth, which are a prominent marginal feature of the tongue. Assuming a flow law for ice of the form where τ is the effective shear stress and is the effective shear strain-rate, values of the exponent n = 3 and B = 1 × 108 N m−2 are determined. These are in fair agreement with published values.

Er Fluid

Electro-Rheological (ER) fluid behavior is similar to Bingham fluid’ s. Only when the shear stress magnitude of ER fluid exceeds the yield stress, Newtonian flow results. Continuous shear strain rate equation about shear stress which simulates Bingham-like fluid shows viscosity variations. Shear yield stress is controlled by electric fields. Electric fields in circumferential direction around the journal are also changeable because of gap distance. These values make changes of spring and damping coefficients of journal bearings compared to Newtonian flow case. Implicit viscosity variation effects according to shear strain rates of fluid are included in generalized Reynolds' equation for submerged journal bearing. Fluid film pressure and perturbation pressures are solved using switch function of Elord's algorithm for cavitation boundary condition. Spring and damping coefficients are obtained for several parameters that determine the characteristics of ER fluids under a certain electric field. From these values stability region for simple rotor-bearing system is computed. It is found that there are no big differences in load capacities with the selected electric field parameters at low eccentric region and higher electric field can support more load with stability at low eccentric region.

Non-Newtonian fluid is a kind of fluid that its shear stress is not always keeps a linear relationship with the shear strain rate. An overview of its applications was made here. Based on the special rheological properties, non-Newtonian fluids are divided into different types and used as additives, mediums and protective materials in many fields. The paper focuses on its applications in fluid rheological properties improving, damping devices, individual protection equipments and mechanical processing. The main achievements in application of the non-Newtonian fluid were introduced and a further prospect was also summarized.

Tomato Ketchup

The objective of this paper was to determine the rheological properties especially shear stress and apparent viscosity vs. shear strain rate, and density of commercially available but also homemade tomato ketchup. The effect of tomato content of density and apparent viscosity of tomato ketchup was also described. Shear stress and apparent viscosity were observed in shear strain rates range from 0.1 s-1 up to 68 s-1. All measurements were carried out at a constant temperature of 22 °C. Experimental results were modeled using a power-law (also known as Ostwald-de Waele) model (R2 ranged from 0.9508 up to 0.9991). The flow behaviour of all measured tomato ketchup samples exhibited non-Newtonian pseudoplastic (shear thinning) behavior where the flow index (n) showed values between 0 and 1. Flow index (n) and consistency coefficient (K) can be used especially in numerical simulation of the flow behaviour of pseudoplastic (shear thinning) liquids.

Laboratory-prepared fine-grained, initially isotropic polycrystalline ice samples were deformed under conditions of simple shear with simultaneous uniaxial compression at a constant temperature of −2.0°C. The aim was to investigate the effects of stress configuration on the flow rate of initially isotropic ice and on ice with subsequent stress and strain-induced anisotropy. Experiments were carried out for various combinations of shear and compression with shear stress ranging from 0 to 0.49 MPa and compressive stress ranging from 0 to 0.98 MPa, but such that for every experiment the octahedral shear stress was 0.4 MPa.The strain curves resulting from the experiments clearly exhibit minimum strain rates while the ice is still isotropic, and steady-state tertiary strain rates along with the development of steady-state anisotropic fabric patterns. With constant octahedral stress (root-mean-square of the principal stress deviators), the minimum octahedral shear-strain rate has no dependence on stress configuration. This result supports the hypothesis that the flow of isotropic ice is dependent only on the second invariant of the stress tensor. This fundamental assumption has been used to provide a general description of ice-flow behaviour independent of the stress configuration (e.g. Nye, 1953; Glen, 1958; Budd, 1969).For the tertiary flow of anisotropic ice, the octahedral strain rate is stress-state dependent as a consequence of the developed crystal-orientation fabric, which is also stress-state dependent, and which develops with strain and rotation. The present tests indicate that the enhancement factor for steady-state tertiary octahedral shear-strain rate depends on the shear or compression fraction and varies from about 10 for simple shear (with zero compression) to about 3 for uniaxial compression (with zero shear).
