Polylactic acid, a biodegradable polymer, is particularly important in this regard due to its excellent print quality and a wide range of applications. Herein, an accurate uniaxial stress–strain profile simulation of 3D-printed PLA is reported. Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis (FEA) was used to simulate the uniaxial tensile test and build a material model for the prediction of the stress–strain response. 3D model for this nonlinear FEA study was built in SolidWorks, and several measures were taken to simulate the nonlinear stress–strain response with high accuracy. Von Mises stress, resultant displacement, and strain plots were produced. Comparison with experimental data extracted from the literature was done to validate the FEA model. Fracture behavior was predicted by FEA stress distribution. Deviations between the stress–strain plot obtained by FEA from the experimentally obtained plot were minimal. The entire curve, except the failure zone, could be precisely simulated. Furthermore, the developed von Mises plasticity material model and the boundary conditions also captured the behavior of specimen under uniaxial tension load and the deviation between experimental results was minor. These results suggest that the developed material model could be useful in non-linear FEA studies on 3D printed PLA objects which are expected to withstand tensile stress.</p>","PeriodicalId":464,"journal":{"name":"Applied Adhesion Science","volume":"8 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.68,"publicationDate":"2020-07-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1186/s40563-020-00128-1","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"5616461","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 main objective of the research was to analyze effect of tree barks as PF-filler on bonding strength of BN and DB glulams produced. Four glue mixture compositions with ratio PF, technical filler, and tree bark filler, respectively are 10: 0: 0 (A); 10: 1.5: 0.5 (B); 10: 1.25: 0.75 (C); and 10: 1: 1 (D) were prepared.

The B composition—the lowest ratio of tree bark filler—is the best for BN glulam, while for DB glulam D composition—the highest ratio of tree bark filler—was the best.

The test method is based on a compressive test, which consists in applying a periodic displacement and recording the subsequent load variations during cure. The test set-up relies on a simple apparatus as it consists in steel cylinders mounted on a standard tensile test machine. The analysis of the mechanical behavior is based on an analytical description of a visco-elastic constitutive law following the Maxwell model, leading to the identification of the material apparent viscosity and Young’s modulus.

Hence, they are used extensively in aerospace and automobile industries. High quality bonds require the use of fixtures which are essential to ensure proper curing and to attain uniform thickness. Improper adhesive application and method of fixturing can cause irregularities in the distribution of the adhesive along the overlap which could affect the joint strength. This is especially critical for aerospace components as the replacement of parts can be costly and time consuming. This paper presents a nondestructive test (NDT) methodology to quantify the bonded joints where the adhesive does not completely cover the overlap area. Single lap adhesive joints with carbon fiber adherents were fabricated using a two-part epoxy based adhesive. The adhesive region was fabricated to have various shapes including elliptical and circular of different sizes and a joint with full coverage for comparison. Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) cutouts were used to mask regions of adhesive to achieve the desired coverage pattern. After fabrication all samples were ultrasonically scanned with a 10?MHz spherically focused immersion transducer using pulse-echo ultrasonics to determine the actual as tested adhesive distribution shape. The scans were able to resolve the shape of adhesive distribution across the overlap region of 25.4?×?25.4?mm and were correlated with the actual adhesive distribution at the interface after lap shear tests. Lap shear tests were then performed on the samples fabricated and the samples were loaded to failure. It was found that the shape and the orientation of the adhesive shape relative to the loading direction had an effect on failure strength.</p>","PeriodicalId":464,"journal":{"name":"Applied Adhesion Science","volume":"7 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.68,"publicationDate":"2019-11-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1186/s40563-019-0122-y","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"4806643","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}

Polypropylene and polyethylene self-reinforced composites are the systems investigated here for the purpose of analyzing the interfacial properties of these systems. Multiple fibre pullout test is an alternate method for single fibre pullout test with added advantages of more reliable statistically averaged data with less standard deviation and minimized chances for fibre breakage during testing. This test can also be verified for various volume fractions unlike single fibre pullout test. Micro bonds of matrix materials are cured on a bundle of fibres and by using a micro vise as an additional fixture, the interfacial strength and other interfacial properties are evaluated through fibre pullout. Surface tension between the fibre and the matrix plays an important role in this test. Thus from the contact angle and the frictional properties of the interface, the interface properties are evaluated.
