Materials selection in mechanical design
A novel materials-selection procedure has been developed and implemented in software. The procedure makes use of Materials Selection Charts: a new way of displaying material property data; and performance indices: combinations of material properties which govern performance. Optimisation methods are employed for simultaneous selection of both material and shape. INTRODUCTION The performance of ...
متن کاملExtreme damping in composite materials with a negative stiffness phase.
Composites with negative stiffness inclusions in a viscoelastic matrix are shown to have higher stiffness and mechanical damping tandelta than that of either constituent and exceeding conventional bounds. The causal mechanism is a greater deformation in and near the inclusions than the composite as a whole. Though a block of negative stiffness is unstable, negative stiffness inclusions in a com...
متن کاملNonlinear acoustics and honeycomb materials
The scope of research activity that Bruce Thompson embraced was very large. In this talk three different research topics that the author shared with Bruce are reviewed. They represent Bruce’s introduction to NDE and include nonlinear acoustics, nondestructive measurements of adhesive bond strengths in honeycomb panels, and studies of flexural wave dispersion in honeycomb materials. In the first...
متن کاملMaterials Selection, Modeling and Mechanical Design
These lecture notes address materials and structures issues associated with the MIT Microfabricated gas turbine engine. An overview of the project and the performance goals is provided. These are translated into requirements for the materials and structural design. Particular emphasis is provided on the approaches taken to designing with brittle materials at low temperatures and designing with ...
متن کاملMechanical Influences on the Design of Actuators with Variable Stiffness
In the 1990s compliant joint actuation was introduced to robotics with the Series Elastic Actuator [1] and the Mechanical Impedance Adjuster [2]. Such concepts provide safer human-robot interaction, can store energy and decrease force control effort [1]. In the following decades, energy efficient actuation with such concepts had high impact in mobile applications such as bipedal robots, since t...
