Abstract Existing models of bulk modulus for aerated hydraulic fluids primarily focus on the effects pressure and air fraction, whereas effect temperature is disregarded. Based lumped parameter method full cavitation model, combined with improved Henry’s law polytropic course equation, a theoretical model dynamic an fluid derived. The system pressure, are investigated using controlled variable ...

Nowadays, mechanical designers and engineers of elastic structures at ultra-small scales face an interesting challenge; traditional flexures with several components, mechanical joints/ welds and linkages are almost impossible to manufacture with existing microsystem fabrica‐ tion technologies. Therefore, the majority of mechanical components, elements and building blocks are based on micro/nano...

In this paper, we present a multigrid framework for constructing implicit, yet interactive solvers for the governing equations of motion of deformable volumetric bodies. We have integrated linearized, corotational linearized and non-linear Green strain into this framework. Based on a 3D finite element hierarchy, this approach enables realistic simulation of objects exhibiting an elastic modulus...

In this paper, the effect of reclaimed rubber modification on the rheological characteristics of asphalt binders is studied. Reclaimed rubber with the extent of 12, 16 and 20 is added to the neat asphalt binder and then shear complex modulus is obtained for neat and modified asphalt binder via Dynamic Shear Rheometer (DSR) test. Using Christensen-Anderson- Marasteanu (CAM) model, master curves ...

Poly (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) PHEMA monolithic cryogels were synthesized by free radical polymerization at -12°C for 18 hours and produced spongy, elastic and macroporous gel matrix. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) measured structural properties of PHEMA monolithic cryogel matrix to visualize pore morphology. Mechanical properties of PHEMA monolithic cryogel such as storage modulus, com...
