Machinability of High Temperature Composites by Abrasive Waterjet
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An experimental investigation was conducted on the machinability of particulate reinforced ceramic TiB2 /SiC and metal SiC/Al matrix composites by an abrasive water jet. Both piercing and slot ...
A Study of Kerf Characteristics in Abrasive Waterjet Machining of Graphite/Epoxy Composite
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Kerf geometry, kerf wall features, and cutting front characteristics of an Abrasive Waterjet (AWJ) machined Graphite/Epoxy (Gr/Ep) laminate were studied. A macroscopic analyses suggests that ...
Edge Trimming of Graphite/Epoxy with Diamond Abrasive Cutters
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The most common method currently employed in industry to trim composites is machining either with conventional fluted cutters or with diamond abrasive cutters. Although diamond abrasive machining ...
Identification of Process Parameters for Friction Stir Welding Ti–6Al–4V
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An experimental study was conducted to identify acceptable welding parameters for friction stir welding Ti-6Al-4V butt joints, ranging from 3 mm to 12 mm in thickness. The primary parameters ...
Study on the Drilling of Titanium/Graphite Hybrid Composites
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Titanium/graphite hybrid composites (TiGr) are a potentially enabling technology which satisfies the low structural weight fraction and long operational lifetime required for the high-speed civil ...
EDM Surface Characterization of a Ceramic Composite TiB2/SiC
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Electrical Discharge Machined (EDM) hole surface characteristics of 20 percent Titanium diboride (TiB2 ) particulate and Silicon carbide (SiC) matrix composite material were investigated. The EDM ...
Impacted Notch Bend Specimens
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The proposed test procedure for instrumented impact testings is evaluated by the experimental and numerical dynamic fracture results obtained for Homalite-100, polycarbonate, A533B steel and 6061 ...
Finite Element Modeling of Edge Trimming Fiber Reinforced Plastics
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A finite element model was developed to simulate chip formation in the edge trimming of unidirectional Fiber Reinforced Plastics (FRPs) with orthogonal cutting tools. Fiber orientations (θ) within ...
Energy Based Modeling of Ultra High-Pressure Waterjet Surface Preparation Processes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Ultra high-pressure waterjets (UHP-WJ) have been emerging as a viable method for surface texturing, cleaning, and peening of metallic materials. Previous experimental studies have suggested that ...
Low-Velocity Impact Response Characterization of a Hybrid Titanium Composite Laminate
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The low-velocity impact response of a hybrid titanium composite laminate, known as TiGr, was compared to that of graphite/epoxy composite. The TiGr material comprised of two outer plies of ...
