Sliver Generation Reduction in Trimming of Aluminum Autobody Sheet
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Aluminum autobody sheets produce appreciable amounts of slivers during trimming operations when trimmed with dies conventionally designed for steel sheets. The slivers can be carried through ...
Simulation of a Supercritical CO2 Recompression Cycle with Zero Emissions
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The NET power cycle (NPC) offers an alternative way to inherently capture combustion derived CO2 with low efficiency penalty. This manuscript improves the NPC by recompressing a portion of the recycled CO2 stream to the ...
Determination of Passive Earth Pressure Coefficients for a Sloping Cohesive Backfill under Uniform Surcharge Loading
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Compared to the Rankine and Coulomb passive earth pressure theories, the logarithmic spiral theory considers curved failure surfaces, which is its greatest advantage. To improve the logarithmic spiral theory further, a new ...
Serrated Flow and Surface Markings in Aluminum Alloys
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Serrated flow and associated progressive surface markings severely restrict the application of some aluminum sheet alloys for automotive body exteriors. This paper attempts to approach the phenomenon ...
Triaxial Test Instability of a Nonassociated Flow‐Rule Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The Mohr‐Coulomb yield condition with a nonassociated flow rule is often used to model the behavior of dry or drained sand. A previous paper demonstrated, using a single shear band with a rotating orientation, that a genuine ...
Wrinkling Analysis in Shrink Flanging
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Flanging is a commonly used sheet forming operation to increase the stiffness of a sheet panel and/or to create the mating surface for subsequent assemblies. This paper presents an energy ...
Edge Trimming of Aluminum Sheets Using Shear Slitting at a Rake Angle
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Edge burr is inevitably present at a slit edge when an aluminum web is shear slit by a pair of rotary knives (or blades) engaged and rotated in opposite directions. This paper presents a ...
Spatial-Sensitivity Analysis for Urban Color Planning: Study of Luoyang City, China
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: As they undergo rapid urbanization, many Chinese cities are lacking color coordination among their buildings. Although there has been substantial research on urban colors in the West, such studies are less developed in the ...
Numerical Simulations and Design of Shearing Process for Aluminum Alloys
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This work combines experimental studies with finite element simulations to develop a reliable numerical model for the simulation of shearing process in aluminum alloys. The critical concern with ...
Modeling of Cutting Temperature in Near Dry Machining
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Near dry machining refers to the condition of applying cutting fluid at relatively low flow rates, on the order of 2–100ml∕h, as opposed to the conventional way of using either a large ...
