Join us August 14th 2:00PM ET! Curing Analysis of Adhesives for customer end use applications. Gain more insights and steer your material innovation with target customer end use applications in mind. Join us for a great webinar that will discuss just this! Curing processes are essential to the manufacturing of consumer products that use thermosetting polymers (such as epoxy resins) to bond components. The use of epoxies and other cured structural adhesives is common in many industries. The curing reaction can induce chemical shrinkage strains and residual stresses, which can result in damage to the adherents or warpage of the bonded assembly. In this webinar, we will review the following key objectives related to Curing:  Abaqus cure modeling capability Coupled multiphysics solver Adhesive curing Curing of composites - Multiscale Prediction of residual stress and warpage

Hello LinkedIn connections! 🚀 I’m thrilled to share my latest project: a wear testing machine that I designed, developed, and fabricated. This innovative machine includes: 🔢 Digital Temperature Measurement: Ensuring precise readings. ⚙️ Adjustable Rotor Speeds: Achieving various rotational speeds. 🌍 Versatile Testing Conditions: Testing components of different geometries, compositions, and weights in various environments like oil, water, and more. We recently tested AA2014 composite reinforced with silicon carbide and glass particulate. The tests were performed at speeds of 300 RPM, 500 RPM, and 1000 RPM for 20 seconds, 30 seconds, and 1 minute, respectively. The results matched 95% with those from a standard research paper. Testing was conducted in air, emulsified water, and organic liquids. 💧🌫️ This machine is perfect for evaluating materials used in rotors, bearings, shafts, and keys under relative motion. It features a belt and pulley drive for power transmission and a miter gear system for converting vertical to horizontal motion. 🛠️🔄 #Innovation #Engineering #WearTesting #MaterialsScience #MechanicalEngineering #PatentApproved #TechInnovation #EngineeringExcellence #Manufacturing

🧠 Every polymer engineer knows that #DynamicMechanicalAnalysis (#DMA) is a powerful tool to characterize the viscoelastic properties of polymers and composites. But who would have thought that this tool could find application in the realm of #friction materials? ⚙ 🔍 This has been investigated in a recent work led by the Tribology and Emissions Lab - UniTn, active in the investigation and development of the friction and #wear properties of #FrictionMaterials. Friction materials, commonly used in automotive braking systems 🚗, have always posed challenges due to their generation of unwanted vibrations, noise, and non-exhaust particulate matter emissions. The goal of this study was to understand how to mitigate these issues by modifying their damping properties, and the Polymers & Composites Lab - UniTN contributed with its expertise on DMA. 🔍 💡💡💡It was found that the addition of #RubberParticles as an internal damper increased the #damping capacity of the friction material, and that the combination of internal and external damping resulted in lower wear, emissions, and vibrations for some formulations. The correlation between the DMA data and the #vibration, #wear, and #emission results was strong, demonstrating the potential of DMA as a tool to optimize the damping properties of friction materials. For me, this experience has been a testament to the versatility of DMA and its potential in areas beyond traditional polymer and composite characterization. 👉 To know more on this work and on the development of more efficient and environmentally friendly friction materials , follow the work of the Tribology and Emissions Lab - UniTn (and the lead authors of this work, i.e., Dr. Priyadarshini Jayashree, Prof. Emiliano Rustighi, Dr. Ana Paula Nogueira, and Prof. Giovanni Straffelini). 📜 Full paper here (or DM me): https://lnkd.in/dAm9kkjk
