Theoretical and Experimental Evaluation of the Bond Strength Under Peeling Loads
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Reliable applications of adhesively bonded joints require understanding of the stress distribution along the bond-line and the stresses that are responsible for the joint failure. To properly ...
Energy Dissipation During Prey Capture Process in Spider Orb Webs
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Capture of a prey by spider orb webs is a dynamic process with energy dissipation. The dynamic response of spider orb webs under prey impact requires a multi-scale modeling by considering the material microstructures and ...
Comparison of the Effects of Debonds and Voids in Adhesive Joints
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An analytical model is developed to compare the effects of voids and debonds on the interfacial shear stresses between the adherends and the adhesive in simple lap joints. Since the adhesive ...
Cumulative Damage Behavior of Anisotropic Al-6061-T6 as a Function of Axial-Torsional Loading Mode Sequence
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Two types of low cycle fatigue tests were conducted along two principal orthotropic directions of an orthotropic Al-6061-T6 plate in strain control at room temperature: (1) reference fatigue ...
Elasto-Plastic Stresses in a Functionally Graded Rotating Disk
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A numerical method based on the extension of the variable material property method was developed to obtain the elasto-plastic stress field in a functionally graded (FG) rotating disk. The method ...
Experimental and Analytical Investigations of the Dynamic Response of Adhesively Bonded Single Lap Joints
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Dynamic response of single lap joints, subjected to a harmonic peeling load is studied theoretically and experimentally. In the theoretical part, dynamic response of a single lap joint clamped ...
Torsional Dynamic Response of a Shaft With Longitudinal and Circumferential Cracks
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Turbo generator shafts are often subjected to cyclic torsion resulting in formation of large longitudinal cracks as well as circumferential cracks. The presence of these cracks could greatly impact the shaft resonance ...
Design and Characterization of a Flexible Self-Inflating Mechanical Structure
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Inflatable structures are commonly used in a variety of engineering applications such as robotics, space structures, medical devices, and automotive safety devices. However, inflation in these systems often requires a ...
Effects of Different Loading Patterns on the Trabecular Bone Morphology of the Proximal Femur Using Adaptive Bone Remodeling
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this study, the changes in the bone density of human femur model as a result of different loadings were investigated. The model initially consisted of a solid shell representing cortical bone encompassing a cubical ...
Cyclic Deformation and Anisotropic Constitutive Relations of Al-6061-T6 Under Biaxial Loading
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Anisotropic cyclic stress-strain curves (CSSCs) were obtained from fully reversed cyclic tests in controlled strain on two orientations of specimens made from an Al-6061-T6 plate (along the rolling ...
