Engineers are keen to explore new design concepts with such materials, since these materials promises to offer high strength to weight ratio, elimination of secondary operations and ease in process ability to form complex shaped parts through injection molding. The mechanical properties of molded parts made from such materials depends on the orientation of the reinforcing fibers. Such orientation occurs in fiber-reinforced plastics, since the fibers in the plastic melt during processing, will orient in different directions under the influence of shear forces that are driven by flow pattern. This paper provides details on systematic and abusive injection molding of test specimens and characterizing anisotropic mechanical data that can be used for fiber orientation predictions in computer aided engineering programs. Systematic molding as compared to abusive molding, identifies optimum molding parameters that reduces part–to-part variation during injection molding, thereby reduces part rejections. It provides optimum part performance during application and the process settings are repeatable and reproducible. The intention of this paper is to share widely such a method to make this process less of a skill or art. The mechanical properties covered here are elastic, shear modulus and poisson ratio. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis revealed that most of the fibers are aligned in melt flow direction for systematic molded plaques, leading to higher stiffness and strength characteristics as compared to transverse to melt flow.","PeriodicalId":142628,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Dynamics of Machines","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130721646","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Freeze-thaw process is one of the inevitable dynamics especially for the materials working at sub-zero conditions where ice crystal changes the physical property of the whole crystal-embedded composite systems. However, still many phenomena have not been explained in terms of crystal control methodology in conjunction with mechanical properties. In this study, ice crystal dynamics occurring in network systems has been discussed. Small size of network structure contributes to crystal growth inhibition especially time-dependent recrystallization. This could be explained by nano-scale confinement effect at the initial nucleation/growth stage, controlling size and shape of ice crystallites. The physical property of crystal embedded-nanocomposite is dominated by ice crystal behaviors over the network. This includes freezing point depression, frequency-dependent and temperature-dependent storage modulus changes and cooling rate- dependent dynamics. This study sheds light on ice crystal control methodology which would be useful in various materials and machines working under freeze-thaw dynamics.","PeriodicalId":142628,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Dynamics of Machines","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115844994","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The uncertainties can result from poorly known or variable parameters, from uncertain inputs or from rapidly changing forcing that can be best described in a stochastic framework. In automotive applications, cylinder pressure variability is one of the uncertain parameters that engineers have to deal with when designing and analyzing internal combustion engines. Multi-body dynamics is a powerful numerical tool largely implemented during the design of new engines. In this paper the influence of cylinder\u0000pressure cyclic variability on the results obtained from the multi-body simulation of engine dynamics is investigated. Particular attention is paid to the influence of these uncertainties on the analysis and the assessment of the different engine vibration sources. A numerical transfer path analysis, based on system dynamic sub structuring is used to derive and assess the internal engine vibration sources. In order to investigate the cyclic variability of cylinder pressure, a Monte Carlo approach is adopted. Starting from measured cylinder pressure that exhibits cyclic variability,\u0000random Gaussian distribution of the equivalent force applied on the piston is generated. The aim of this paper is to outline a methodology which can be used to derive correlations between cyclic variability and statistical distribution of results. The statistical information derived can be used to advance the knowledge of the multi-body analysis and the assessment of system sources when uncertain inputs are considered.","PeriodicalId":142628,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Dynamics of Machines","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129307597","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
