Optimization of the Production of Rubber Compounds Using Mathematical Models

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Rubber compounds were mixed in a batch internal mixer, and symbolic regression was used to derive mathematical models linking recipe and process parameters to ram path, torque, and mixing quality (incorporation, dispersion, distribution). Subsequent optimization with evolutionary algorithms identified operating conditions that reduce specific energy ...

Soft Mechanical‐Electrical Logic Using Liquid Metal‐Filled 3D‐Printed Architectures

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
We present 3D‐printed soft mechanical–electrical logic elements that use liquid metal–filled silicone tubes actuated by thermoplastic polyurethane/polylactic acid (TPU/PLA) architectures to produce Boolean operations. Complementary normally open and normally closed unit cells perform repeatable binary transitions and can be combined into more complex ...

An Analytical Model for the Initial Stiffness of Bearing Connections with Slotted Holes

open access: yes
In steel structures, cover plate joints are mainly used with normal round holes, but slotted holes, where the slot is oriented perpendicular to the direction of the bearing force, make it possible to release displacements in selected directions and thus ...

Direct Metal Deposition of Graphene–Ti28Nb35.4Zr Matrix Composites With Enhanced Mechanical, Corrosion, and Biocompatibility Properties for Bone Implants

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Graphene nanoplatelet (0.1 wt.%) reinforcement significantly enhances the performance of β Ti‐28Nb‐35.4Zr alloy. Grain refinement, reduced water contact angle, and improved surface characteristics promote osteoblast adhesion and complete surface coverage after 7 days.

The stress distribution in the joints of vehicles chassis frames subject to torsion [PDF]

open access: yes, 1978
The problem of warping inhibition in the joints, of commercial vehicle chassis frames is very important for the estimation. of stress distribution in the joints and the overall torsional stiffness of frames.

INFLUENCE OF HIGH INITIAL ISOLATOR STIFFNESS ON THE SEISMIC RESPONSE OF A BASE-ISOLATED BENCHMARK BUILDING

open access: yes, 2011
The influence of high initial isolator stiffness on the response of a base-isolated benchmark building is investigated. The base-isolated building is modeled as a three-dimensional linear-elastic structure having three degrees-of-freedom at each floor ...
