With the use of an idealized model of the shear spinning process some of the basic quantities in the shearing mechanism have been defined and formulated, these being: shear strain, shear strain rate, specific energy, and tangential force (torque) in spinning. An experimental technique to study metal flow in shear spinning has been described. The results of analytical work have been compared with experimental data.

The deformation zone in shear-spinning is idealized for a two-dimensional process and maximum permissible thickness reduction without fracture is predicted in terms of the stress system in this zone. The effect of deviation from the sine law on the maximum reduction before fracture is shown analytically to be due to the influence of distortions of the unspun flange on the state of stress under the roller. The results of analytical work are compared with experimental data and good agreement has been obtained. The phenomenon of back extrusion in shear-spinning is shown to be the result of a compressive stress in the spun section parallel to the mandrel side and is greatly influenced by mandrel angle and deviation from the sine law.

Currently, because of stricter environmental standards and highly competitive markets, machining operations, as the main part of the manufacturing cycle, need to be rigorously optimized. In order to simultaneously maximize the production quality and minimize the environmental issues related to the grinding process, this research study evaluates the performance of minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) grinding using water-based nanofluids in the presence of horizontal ultrasonic vibrations (UV). In spite of the positive impacts of MQL using nanofluids and UV which are extensively reported in the literature, there is only a handful of studies on concurrent utilization of these two techniques. To this end, for this paper, five kinds of water-based nanofluids including multiwall carbon nanotube (MWCNT), graphite, Al2O3, graphene oxide (GO) nanoparticles, and hybrid Al2O3/graphite were employed as MQL coolants, and the workpiece was oscillated along the feed direction with 21.9 kHz frequency and 10 µm amplitude. Machining forces, specific energy, and surface quality were measured for determining the process efficiency. As specified by experimental results, the variation in the material removal nature made by ultrasonic vibrations resulted in a drastic reduction of the grinding normal force and surface roughness. In addition, the type of nanoparticles dispersed in water had a strong effect on the grinding tangential force. Hybrid Al2O3/graphite nanofluid through two different kinds of lubrication mechanisms—third body and slider layers—generated better lubrication than the other coolants, thereby having the lowest grinding forces and specific energy (40.13 J/mm3). It was also found that chemically exfoliating the graphene layers via oxidation and then purification prior to dispersion in water promoted their effectiveness. In conclusion, UV assisted MQL grinding increases operation efficiency by facilitating the material removal and reducing the use of coolants, frictional losses, and energy consumption in the grinding zone. Improvements up to 52%, 47%, and 61%, respectively, can be achieved in grinding normal force, specific energy, and surface roughness compared with conventional dry grinding.

Experimental data obtained by measuring the tangential component of the force affecting radial baffles in a flat-bottomed cylindrical mixing vessel stirred with a Rushton turbine impeller is analysed. Spectral analysis of the experimental data demonstrated the presence of its macro-instability (MI) related low-frequency component embedded in the total force. Two distinct dimensionless frequencies (both directly proportional to the impeller speed of rotation N) of the occurence of the MI component were detected: a lower frequency of approximately 0.025N and a higher frequency of about 0.085N. The relative magnitude QMI of the MI-related component of the total tangential force was evaluated by a combination of proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) and spectral analysis. The values of magnitude QMI varied in the interval [rom approximately 0.05 to 0.30. The magnitude QMI takes maximum values at low Reynolds number values (in laminar and transitional regions). In the turbulent region (ReM >20000) the QMI value is low and practically constant. The dependence oj the QMI values on vertical position in the vessel is only marginal. The results suggest that the magnitude of the MI component of the force is significantly influenced by the liquid viscosity and density.

Colored luminous fibers were prepared by a melt spinning process, adding colored pigments and long afterglow rare earth material into polyamide fiber. The colored luminous fibers had a variety of colors in photopic vision, and emitted colored light in mesopic vision and scotopic vision. Based on the experimental data of the emission spectra and the test luminance of the luminous fibers, the effect of the emissive colors of the luminous fibers on the equivalent luminance at different vision states was analyzed. The results showed that the effect of the emissive colors of white, red, yellow, and green luminous fibers on the equivalent luminance was not obvious in photopic and scotopic vision, but that of blue luminous fiber was obvious in photopic vision but not in scotopic vision.

Lyophobic colloidal dispersions, aggregated surfactant systems, and polymer solutions, as well as foams and emulsions, can all be deformed by weak external forces; rheology is the study of deformation and flow of materials. Various rheological quantities arising from the response of a material to shear are defined. For liquids the stress, τ‎, applied is related to the rate of deformation, that is, the shear strain rate, γ̇. For Newtonian fluids τ‎ and γ̇ are linearly related and τ‎ / γ̇ is the viscosity, η‎. Other nonlinear relationships correspond to shear thinning and shear thickening fluids and to plastic behaviour in which there is a yield stress. Viscoelastic systems exhibit both viscous and elastic properties; such behaviour is often treated using the simple Maxwell model. Some illustrative experimentally observed rheological behaviour is presented.

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.

AbstractNumerical calculations by finite elements show that the variation of horizontal velocity with depth in the vicinity of a symmetric, isothermal, non-slipping ice ridge deforming on a flat bed is approximately consistent with prediction from laminar flow theory except in a zone within about four ice thicknesses of the divide. Within this near-divide zone horizontal shear strain-rate is less concentrated near the bottom and downward velocity is less rapid in comparison to the flanks. The profiles over depth of horizontal and vertical velocity approach being linear and parabolic respectively. Calculations for various surface elevation profiles show these velocity profile shapes are insensitive to the ice-sheet geometry.


A yield criterion and plastic stress-strain relations are formulated for anisotropic metals deformed under conditions of plane strain. The equations are shown to be hyperbolic, the characteristics coinciding with the directions of maximum shear strain-rate. When the anisotropy is uniformly distributed, the variation of the stresses along the characteristics is expressed in terms of elliptic functions, and geometrical properties of the field of characteristics are established. The theory is applied to the problem of indentation by a flat die.
