Under certain conditions, carbontetrachloride is found to be a negative boundary lubricant (gives a higher coefficient of friction than that of dry surfaces in air), while under other conditions, it lowers friction and gives a beneficial effect. Both of these situations are illustrated for heavily loaded sliding surfaces where the subsurface is undergoing gross plastic flow and an explanation is presented which appears to be consistent with all experimental facts. Carbontetrachloride is found to be more reactive chemically when the sliding surfaces are heavily strained or galled under high normal and shear stresses and containing microcracks, a situation that arises when cutting at low speed.

The Coefficient Of Friction

This paper is intended to demonstrate that designers of wet clutches for power transmission can obtain the optimum friction characteristics for specific applications by considering the interaction between friction materials and lubricants. A friction clutch plate rig is described and the friction results obtained are presented. It is shown that a wide variation of coefficients of friction and frictional characteristics in wet friction clutches can be obtained by changing the oils and friction materials. In particular the coefficient of friction is dependent upon (1) the oil, (2) the materials of the sliding surfaces, (3) sliding speed, and (4) temperature. It is also shown that the coefficient of friction is affected by ( a) refining treatment given to the oil, ( b) different base oils, and ( c) additives.

Damage Process

Abstract The rock materials surrounding the underground excavations typically demonstrate nonlinear mechanical response and irreversible behavior in particular under high in-situ stress states. The dominant causes of irreversible behavior are plastic flow and damage process. The plastic flow is controlled by the presence of local shear stresses which cause the frictional sliding. During this process, the net number of bonds remains unchanged practically. The overall macroscopic consequence of plastic flow is that the elastic properties (e.g. the stiffness of the material) are insensitive to this type of irreversible change. The main cause of irreversible changes in quasi-brittle materials such as rock is the damage process occurring within the material. From a microscopic viewpoint, damage initiates with the nucleation and growth of microcracks. When the microcracks length reaches a critical value, the coalescence of them occurs and finally, the localized meso-cracks appear. The macroscopic and phenomenological consequence of damage process is stiffness degradation, dilatation and softening response. In this paper, a coupled elastoplastic-logarithmic damage model was used to simulate the irreversible deformations and stiffness degradation of rock materials under loading. In this model, damage evolution & plastic flow rules were formulated in the framework of irreversible thermodynamics principles. To take into account the stiffness degradation and softening on post-peak region, logarithmic damage variable was implemented. Also, a plastic model with Drucker-Prager yield function was used to model plastic strains. Then, an algorithm was proposed to calculate the numerical steps based on the proposed coupled plastic and damage constitutive model. The developed model has been programmed in VC++ environment. Then, it was used as a separate and new constitutive model in DEM code (UDEC). Finally, the experimental Oolitic limestone rock behavior was simulated based on the developed model. The irreversible strains, softening and stiffness degradation were reproduced in the numerical results. Furthermore, the confinement pressure dependency of rock behavior was simulated in according to experimental observations.

Normal And Shear Stresses

The multiaxial yield behaviors of 1100-0 aluminum, 70:30 brass, and an overaged 2024 aluminum alloy (2024-T7) have been investigated for a variety of prestress histories involving combinations of normal and shear stresses. Von Mises effective prestrains were in the range of 1.2–32%. Prestress paths were chosen in order to investigate the roles of prestress and prestrain direction on the nature of small-strain offset (ε = 5 × 10−6) yield loci. Particular attention was paid to the directionality, i.e., translation and distortion, of the yield locus. A key result, which was observed in all three materials, was that the final direction of the prestrain path strongly influences the distortions of the yield loci. Differences in the yield locus behavior of the three materials were also observed: brass and the 2024-T7 alloy showed more severe distortions of the yield locus and a longer memory of their entire prestrain history than the 1100-0 aluminum. In addition, more “kinematic” translation of the subsequent yield loci was observed in brass and 2024-T7 than in 1100-0 aluminum. The 2024-T7 differed from the other materials, showing a yield locus which decreased in size subsequent to plastic straining. Finally, the implications of these observations for the constitutive modeling of multiaxial material behavior are discussed.

Normal And Shear Stresses

Three computer programs, written in FORTRAN WATFIV, are developed to analyze straight, monolithically cast, symmetric concrete box beams with one, two, or three cells and side cantilevers over a simple span or over two spans with symmetric mid-span loadings. The analysis, based on Maisel's formulation, is performed in three stages. First, the structure is idealized as a beam and the normal and shear stresses are calculated using the simple bending theory and St-Venant's theory of torsion. The secondary stresses arising from torsional and distortional warping and shear lag are calculated in the second and third stages, respectively. The execution times on an AMDAHL 580 system are 0.02, 0.93, and 0.25 s for the three programs, respectively. The stresses arising in each stage of analysis are then superposed to determine the overall response of the box section to the applied loading. The results are compared with Maisel's hand calculations. Key words: bending, bimoment, box beam, computer analysis, FORTRAN, shear, shear lag, thin-walled section, torsion, torsional and distortional warping.

Normal And Shear Stresses

Mean velocity and turbulence intensity measurements have been made in a fully developed turbulent boundary layer over a d-type surface roughness. This roughness is characterised by regular two-dimensional elements of square cross section placed one element width apart, with the cavity flow between elements being essentially isolated from the outer flow. The measurements show that this boundary layer closely satisfies the requirement of exact self-preservation. Distribution across the layer of Reynolds normal and shear stresses are closely similar to those found over a smooth surface except for the region immediately above the grooves. This similarity extends to distributions of third and fourth-order moments of longitudinal and normal velocity fluctuations and also to the distribution of turbulent energy dissipation. The present results are compared with those obtained for a k-type or sand grained roughness.

Abstract The development of viscous endwall flow is of major importance when considering highly-loaded compressor stages. Essentially, all losses occurring in a subsonic compressor are caused by viscous shear stresses building up boundary layers on individual aerofoils and endwall surfaces. These boundary layers cause significant aerodynamic blockage and cause a reduction in effective flow area, depending on the specifics of the stage design. The presented work describes the numerical investigation of blockage development in a 3.5-stage low-speed compressor with tandem stator vanes. The research is aimed at understanding the mechanism of blockage generation and growth in tandem vane rows and across the entire compressor. Therefore, the blockage generation is investigated as a function of the operating point, the rotational speed and the inlet boundary layer thickness.

Normal And Shear Stresses

Current experiences show that a non-proportional loading of ductile materials such as wrought steels, wrought aluminium or magnesium alloys, not welded or welded, causes a significant fatigue life reduction under an out-of-phase shear strain or shear stress superimposed on a normal strain or normal stress compared with proportional in-phase loading. However, when ductility, here characterised by tensile elongation, is reduced by a heat treatment or by another manufacturing technology such as casting or sintering, the afore-mentioned life reduction is compensated or even inversed, i. e. longer fatigue life results compared with proportional loading. Some actual results, determined with additive manufactured titanium, suggest that microstructural features such as manufacturing-dependent internal defects like microporosities should be considered in addition to the ductility level. This complex life behaviour under non-proportional loading cannot always be estimated. Therefore, in experimental proofs of multiaxial loaded parts, especially safety-critical components or structures, with real or service-like signals, emphasis must be placed on retaining non-proportionalities between loads and stresses/strains, respectively.
