Mechanical properties of Nb-Ti composite superconducting wires

Creator:: Liu, He
Abstract:: Mechanical properties of Nb-Ti composite superconducting wires were tested at room temperature. The results were analysed using simple composite theory, the rule of mixtures. The objective is to predict the mechanical properties of Nb-Ti superconducting composite wires as a function of volume ratio and geometry of the components, the composite...

Fibers Microbuckling of Uncured Carbon-Epoxy Prepreg in Bending

Creator:: Guo, Yizhi
Abstract:: Prepreg is widely used in composite manufacturing with advanced composites such as carbon and aramid. The material is characterized by a degree of flexibility (drape) and stickiness (tack), which allows an efficient layup on molds with complex shapes. However, axial instability of compressed fibers during the molding process may occur,...

The dynamic shear moduli of blubber for selected large whale species

Creator:: Summers, Michael P.
Abstract:: Whale blubber is the insular tissue layer located between the dermis and the superficial fascia layer which sheathes the whale's musculature. It is made up of a lipid matrix ramified with strong, structural collagen and elastic fiber bundles, but little is known of its mechanical properties. Knowing these properties adds...

Three-dimensional, nonlinear viscoelastic analysis of laminated composites : a finite element approach

Creator:: Wang, Min
Abstract:: Polymeric composites exhibit time-dependent behavior, which raises a concern about their long term durability and leads to a viscoelastic study of these materials. Linear viscoelastic analysis has been found to be inadequate because many polymers exhibit nonlinear viscoelastic behavior. Classical laminate theory is commonly used in the study of laminated...

Modeling Implantable Passive Mechanisms for Modifying the Transmission of Forces and Movements between Muscle and Tendons

Creator:: Homayouni, Taymaz
Abstract:: This thesis explores the development of biomechanical models for evaluating a new class of passive mechanical implants for orthopedic surgery. The proposed implants take the form of passive engineered mechanisms and will be used to improve the functional attachment of muscles to tendons and bone by modifying the transmission of...

Evaluation of Abaqus for simulating quasi-static Mode III shear of edge notched carbon fiber reinforced polymer panels

Creator:: Hyder, Imran
Abstract:: The ability to engineer stiffness and strength in any desired direction make composites an ideal material candidate for various applications when compared to their traditional isotropic counterparts. In spite of this, the ability to model the material response in composites has yet to be fully explored. Composite research largely focuses...

Theoretical modeling and experimental analysis of the flight mechanics of Lepidoptera

Creator:: Wilson, Tyler
Abstract:: Development of micro air vehicles has led to a strong interest in the biomechanics of flapping fliers such as bats, birds, and insects, due to their ability to perform extreme unsteady maneuvers and fly in confined spaces. Determining the methods and mechanisms used by these fliers is a valuable source...

The effects of thermal processing on the mechanical properties of AA2024, 2014 and 2618 aluminum alloys

Creator:: Li, Xiao, 1963-
Abstract:: This study determined the independent effects of various homogenization cycles and precipitation treatments on the elevated temperature workability and the final ambient temperature mechanical properties of AA2024 aluminum alloy and on the T3 tensile properties of 2014 aluminum alloy as well as T6 tensile properties of 2618 and 2618 (Curich)...

A simplified dynamic model of the hind leg of a beetle during step initiation

Creator:: Mallysetty, Venkata Ramana
Abstract:: This thesis investigates a simple dynamic model of the hind leg of a beetle during initiation of a step. The primary assumption was that the full load of the body was carried on the hind leg during this time. That is, the only forces on the body were that of...

Microstructural banding in thermally and mechanically processed titanium 6242

Creator:: Kansal, Utkarsh
Abstract:: Ti-6Al-2Sn-4Zr-2Mo-0.1Si specimens were shaped by repeated cycles of heating (to 954 °C) and hammer or press forging followed by a solution anneal that varied from 968 to 998 °C. The coupons were originally extracted from billets forged below the beta trans us ( 1009 °C) and slow cooled to ambient...
