Abstract The article presents the results of tests in order to verifying the effectiveness of the nine selected elastomeric material models (Neo-Hookean, Mooney with two and three constants, Signorini, Yeoh, Ogden, Arruda-Boyce, Gent and Marlow), which the material constants were determined in one material test - the uniaxial tension testing. The convergence assessment of nine analyzed models were made on the basis of their performance from an experimental bending test of the elastomer samples from the results of numerical calculations FEM for each material models. To calculate the material constants for the analyzed materials, a model has been generated by the stressstrain characteristics created as a result of experimental uniaxial tensile test with elastomeric dumbbell samples, taking into account the parameters received in its 18th cycle. Using such a calculated material constants numerical simulation of the bending process of a elastomeric, parallelepipedic sampleswere carried out using MARC / Mentat program.

This paper presents a new product, a glass laminate aluminium-reinforced epoxy (GLARE)-based thin-walled structure with a stiffener in the form of a longitudinal rib. The stiffening rib in an outer metallic layer of a GLARE-based panel was fabricated by the incremental sheet forming technique and Alclad 2024-T3 aluminium alloy sheets were used as adherends. The strength properties of the adhesive joint between the layers of the fibre metal laminates (FMLs) were determined in a uniaxial tensile test, peel drum test, tensile/shear test and short-beam three-point-bending test. Two variants of FMLs were considered, with an adhesive film and without an adhesive film between the adherends and the epoxy/glass prepreg. The FMLs were tested at three different temperatures that corresponded to those found under real aircraft operating conditions, i.e., −60 °C, room temperature and +80 °C. It was found that the temperatures do not affect the tensile strength and shear strength of the FMLs tested. However, there was a noticeable increase in the stiffness of samples stretched at reduced temperature. An additional adhesive film layer between the adherends and the glass/epoxy prepreg significantly improves the static peeling strength of the joint both at reduced and at elevated temperatures. A clear increase in the critical force at which buckling occurs has been clearly demonstrated in the uniaxial compression test of GLARE-based rib-stiffened panels. In the case of GLARE-based rib-stiffened panels, the critical force averaged 15,370 N, while for the non-embossed variant, it was 11,430 N, which translates into a 34.5% increase in critical force.

Aluminum Magnesium Alloys

The demand for lighter materials with suitable mechanical properties and a high resistance to corrosion has been increasing in the industries. Therefore, aluminum appears as an alternative due to its set of properties. The aim of this work was to evaluate residual stress levels and mechanical properties of welded joints of Aluminum-Magnesium alloy AA 5083-O using the Friction Stir Welding process. For mechanical characterization were performed a uniaxial tensile test, Vickers hardness, bending test and, finally, the determination of residual stresses. It was concluded that welding by FSW process with an angle of inclination of the tool at 3o, established better results due to better mixing of materials. The best results of tensile strength and a lower level of residual stresses were obtained using a tool rotation speed of 340 RPM with welding advance speed of 180 mm/min and 70 mm/min.

Aluminum Alloy Casting

In the low pressure casting process of A356 aluminum alloy wheel hub, casting defects including shrinkage cavity, shrinkage porosity, impurity and pore usually occur inside the casting. These defects affect the mechanical properties of the casting. To solve this problem, we conducted a study based on a cooperation project with a well-known domestic automobile wheel manufacturer. In the present study, uniaxial tensile test of aluminum alloy casting containing defects was simulated and analysed, and the effect of types and number of defects on mechanical properties was studied by finite element analysis software. Statistical analysis of the data was provided by the manufacturer. It has been found that the degassing technology is effective by the quantitative analysis method. Based on the analyses of experimental data and the numerical simulation it is deduced that the tensile strength of casting increases with the increase of the defects due to the presence of impurity. This was confirmed in this research project, it has been observed that the defect rate of the casting sample is reduced from 5%-6% to less than 1%.

As a new technique to form sheet metal parts, Multi-point forming (MPF) also can be used on bending aluminum alloy profile. Since the Multi-Point Die (MPD) which replaces the traditional solid bending die is composed of many discrete punch elements, dimples always occur on the plate of profiles. To eliminate the dimpling defects, numerical simulation of the bending process with A6N01S-T5 aluminum alloy hollow profile using MPD were conducted. By comparing the bending effects on MPD with different size of punch elements and with different kind of elastic cushion, reasonable forming parameters were obtained. Pressing of Aluminum alloy profile with different radii on the MPD and solid die were simulated. The cross-section distortion indicated that the aluminum alloy profile can be formed with MPF technique while it has the advantage of flexibility. For the profile with large deformation, multi-step MPF method is a better choice due to its rapid reconfigurable characteristic.

For the compressive strength of the normal concrete is high and the tensile strength is low, it is typically brittle material. The ultimate tensile elongation of it is insufficiently 1/1000. Zhongwei Wu, an academician of Chinese Academy of Engineering pointed out that compounding cementitious composites was the way to make it high-performance, and fiber reinforced was the key[1]. Polyvinyl Alcohol Engineered Cementitious Composites has super flexural performance[2] and stretching ability[3],and its ultimate deflection is approximately 40 times larger than that of normal concrete when bended, similar to the multiple cracking and super toughness of uniaxial tensile test, it shows significant bending hardening behavior in the process of the test. This paper studied its flexural property by four point bending test .

Silicone rubber is widely used in the medical field, whereas agar is widely used as a medium to breed bacteria or to carry the active ingredient for a specific purpose. There are few synthetic skins available in the market that are made of silicone, such as Biobrane, Integra and Transcyte, to name a few. Meanwhile, in a previous study, agar is used to carry the active ingredients in turmeric to the wounded skin and expedite its recovery. However, up to date, there is no available skin substitute with the ability for carrying bioactive ingredient that would expedite wound healing and anti-bacterial properties. Hence, this study aims to synthesise a new biocomposite that could mimic skin mechanical properties with the future potential to carry bioactive ingredient via agar particles. The material constants for this newly developed agar slicone biocomposite are determined using Neo- Hookean, Mooney-Rivlin and Ogden models. This research consists of two main stages; which is the synthesis and the determination of the mechanical properties of agar silicone biocomposite, via experimental and numerical approach. The experimental approach involves testing the biocomposite under uniaxial tensile test, while the numerical approach involves curve fitting method using a Matlab programme. The calculated parameter for Neo-Hookean (C1) ranges from 52-57 kPa for all variances of agar silicone biocomposite. As for Mooney-Rivlin, the values are of 34-38 kPa and 47- 54 kPa for C1 and C2 re spectively. Ogden parameters (Ogden coefficient, µ and Ogden exponent, α) for agar silicone biocomposites are 48-54 kPa; 2.17-2.19 (µ;α). The material constants of agar silicone biocomposites lays within the range of human tissue and skin, as well as animal skin; thus proving that agar silicone biocomposite could deform nearly the same as skin. Therefore, it can be concluded that this study has significant contribution to better understand the mechanical properties of the newly developed agar silicone biocomposite.

Miniature disk bending test is used to evaluate the mechanical behavior of irradiated materials and its properties — mainly ductility loss due to irradiation in steel. In Miniature Disk Bending Machine the specimen is firmly held between the two horizontal jaws of punch, and an indentor with spherical ball travels vertically. Researchers have observed reasonable correlations between values of the yield stress, strain hardening and ultimate tensile strength estimated from this test and mechanical properties determined from the uniaxial tensile test. Some methods for the analysis of miniature disk bending, proposed by various authors have been discussed in the paper. It is difficult to distinguish between the regimes of elastic and plastic deformation since local plastic deformation occurs for very small values of load when the magnitude of spatially averaged stress will be well below the yield stress. Also, the analytical solution for large amplitude, plastic deformation becomes rather unwieldy. Hence a finite element analysis has been carried out. The finite element model, considers contact between the indentor and test specimen, friction between various pairs of surfaces and elastic plastic behavior. The load is increased in steps and converged solution has been obtained and analysis terminated at a load beyond which a stable solution cannot be obtained. A sensitivity study has been carried out by varying the various parameters defining the material properties by ±10% around the base values. This study has been carried out to generate a data base for the load-deflection characteristics of similar materials from which the material properties can be evaluated by an inverse calculation. It is seen that the deflection obtained by analytical elastic bending theory is significantly lower than that obtained by the elasto-plastic finite element solution at relatively small values of load. The FE solution and experimental results are in reasonably good agreement.

Metal Arc Welding

Welding is one of the methods widely used in the joining of metals for structural elements. One of the factors that influence the strength of welded metals is types of welding joints. Suitability of the type of welding joint with geometries of base metals is required to obtain welded metal products with optimum properties. In this study an attempt is made to investigate mechanical properties of welded metals with two different types of joints (single-V and double-V) using the shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) process. Low carbon steel with bevel angle of 60° was used in this study. Welding process was performed using current of 70 A with a constant welding speed. The flexural properties and uniaxial tensile properties are studied by three-point bending test and uniaxial tensile test respectively. Test results show that the tensile strength and the bending strength of single-V specimens is 521.64 N/mm2 and 525.11 N/mm2 respectively. In addition, the tensile strength and the bending strength of double-V specimens is 517.33 N/mm2 and  504.24 N/mm2 respectively
