Reducing the weight of automobiles is a major contributor to increased fuel economy. The baseline materials for vehicle construction, low-carbon steel and cast iron, are being replaced by materials with higher specific strength and stiffness: advanced high-strength steels, aluminum, magnesium, and polymer composites. The key challenge is to reduce the cost of manufacturing structures with these new materials. Maximizing the weight reduction requires optimized designs utilizing multimaterials in various forms. This use of mixed materials presents additional challenges in joining and preventing galvanic corrosion.

<p>Polypropylene fibres (PPF) are used in concrete principally to reduce plastic shrinkage cracking, but also to prevent explosive spalling of concrete exposed to fire. In the EU alone, an estimated 75,000 tonnes of virgin PPF are used each year. At the same time an estimated 63,000 tonnes of polymer fibres are recovered from end-of-life tyres, which are agglomerated and too contaminated with rubber to find any alternative use; currently these are mainly disposed of by incineration. The authors have initiated a study on the feasibility of reusing tyre polymer fibres in fresh concrete to mitigate fire-induced spalling. If successful, this will permit replacement of the virgin PPF currently used with a reused product of equal or superior performance. A preliminary experimental investigation is presented in this paper. High-strength concrete cubes/slabs have been tested under thermo-mechanical loading. This study has shown promising results; the specimens with the tyre polymer fibres have shown lower vulnerability to spalling than those of plain concrete.</p>

Advanced manufacturing processes improve the cost and quality of goods. Rotary friction welding is a fast, energy-efficient, and reliable joining process for metals, but new applications are hindered by large development costs for each new alloy. Each alloy set has different welding characteristics; therefore, lessons learned from a single alloy are not always broadly applicable. To establish knowledge that is applicable across multiple alloys, a family of different superalloys were welded to discover process trends that were applicable beyond a single alloy set. In this study, weld symmetry did not correlate to weld strength across alloy systems. Some alloys’ strongest welds occurred at maximum symmetry, whereas high asymmetry was associated with different alloys’ maximum strength. High feed rates, high welding forces, low energy, and low temperatures all resulted in high-strength welds across all alloy and geometry combinations. Tensile strengths greater than 95% of base-metal strength were recorded for most alloy systems.

Using FRP bars in the concrete structures under harsh environment produces extension of those service life and dropping of the cost of their lifecycle. This study investigated the influence of slab thickness, material of rebar, arrangement of reinforcement and mass’s dropped on the dynamic behavior of RC slabs by using laboratory experiments. Seven specimens 1550×1550 mm dimension with two thickness 120 and 150mm, single control specimen reinforced with steel bars and six specimens reinforced by CFRP bars were experimentally investigated under sequential dropping-weight ranged from 50 to 150kg, it was a rigid steel projectile, used to apply impacting load. 2.5m was the height of dropping. For estimated penetration depth, three empirical formulas have been used, ACE formulae was preferable predictor than other formulas. Different codes were used to calculation punching shear capacity and critical velocity of perforation and compared the experimental results with these codes. The experimental results showed that the shear properties of slabs have a significant effect in their general behavior. And preferable performance in FRP slabs than slabs reinforced with steel can be achieved which considering high strength and corrosion resistance of this material, which makes it a suitable choice for reinforcing materials.

Dynamics of development of sales of cars in the world is considered. The steady growth of car sales in the period 2013–2018 was determined. It is determined that in just nine months of 2018, 71 153 025 cars were registered in the world, which is 1.7% more than in the nine months of 2017, and according to the data of the ASEAN (European Association of car manufacturers), 11 951 957 cars were registered in the automotive market of the European Union countries in the nine months of 2018 in the EU, which is 2.5% more than in the same period of 2017. It is determined that despite some decline in production in Japan, South Korea, the rest of the traditional car manufacturers in Europe and North America show a steady pace of development, built and planned construction of new modern production of automotive equipment mainly in the Asian and South American regions. Analysis of the development of metal cord production showed that it is expected to increase investment in the production of metal cord with a planned increase in production by 22% until 2022. At the same time, the greatest growth should fall on passenger and lightcargo tires. Due to the increasing competition in the metal cord market, the development of the latter is in the direction of highstrength structures. The transition to a high-strength metal cord attracts the possibility of reducing the weight of tires, increasing their mobility and reducing the cost per unit weight of the metal cord with an equally strong replacement of structures in tires.

In accordance with the recommendations of specialized professional literature, steel pyramidal-prismatic bunkers are projected for a service life of 20 years. However, in practice this term is often twice, or even three times lower. This is especially true for complicated operating conditions, in particular the effect of increased loads and low temperatures. Existing design techniques for such structures, both in European practice and the design practice of Ukraine and other CIS countries do not pay attention to these aspects. Therefore, in the practice of operation, the increased accident rate of steel bunker capacities has already become virtually a common occurrence. One of the possible ways to solve this problem is presented, which consists of using instead of traditional steels of ordinary strength with high plastic properties, steels of increased or high strength with reduced plastic properties. At the same time, clear theoretical recommendations are provided for choosing the right steel depending on the operating conditions, primarily when exposed to increased loads. The recommendations are presented in a form convenient for practical engineering applications. The proposed approach allows to reduce the material consumption of structures of this type on average according to theoretical estimates by 25-30% without reducing their bearing capacity. Their durability is also further enhanced by improving performance at low temperatures. Thus, the applied aspect of such a solution to this above problem is the possibility of increasing the overall reliability of steel bunker capacities, as well as reducing the cost of their periodic maintenance and repair work. A practical illustration of the presented approach is also given on the example of the design of bunkers of a bypass track for supplying charge materials for blast furnaces of one of the metallurgical plants of the northern location. As a result, this created the preconditions for monetary savings of about 0.5 million UAH in prices 2019 (about 20,000 USD)

This paper summarises experimental results of some fresh concrete tests. Polypropylene fibres were added to the concrete mix to produce fibre reinforced concrete. Pozzolanic materials, including pulverised fly ash and silica fume, were used as partial replacement of cement, and their effects on the fresh fibre concrete were reported. Test results showed that the polypropylene fibre reduced the concrete workability significantly by thixotropic effect and decreased the setting time. Substitution of pozzolans also greatly affected the properties. The presence of fly ash increased the workability and setting time but in the presence of silica fume a reverse trend was observed. Empirical equations were proposed.

Submerged Arc

Steels with 50 ksi and up yield points usually acquire their strength from some form of heat treatment. Most of these steels, 11/2 in. thick and up, must be welded using sustained preheat and controlled interpass temperatures, plus controlled welding heat input of approximately 50 to 60 kJ/in. These two items can add as much as 50 percent to the cost of submerged-arc welding, and increases of up to 30 percent are common for manual welding when compared with lower-strength steels previously used. To reduce costs, a quenched and precipitation-hardened steel, ASTM A710 Grade A Class 3, with a high degree of weldability, was tested. This steel, which can be welded without sustained preheat and almost unlimited heat input, has been extensively tested in thicknesses from 21/4 through 6 in. Although this steel costs more than the usual quenched-and-tempered plates at these strength levels, reductions of 40 to 75 percent in welding labor costs are probable. In addition, sizeable material savings should be realized when these items are used in place of HY-80 and HY-100.
