An Energy Based Model for the Compressive Behavior of Goose DownWilde, Timothy Philip 02 December 2004 (has links)
Very little work has been done to study and understand the internal mechanisms that provide goose down with its resiliency under repeated compression. We have employed low magnification optical microscopy to identify some of these important mechanisms. Microscopy showed that a small tertiary structure exists on most goose down fibers and creates an important point of contact when two fibers interact. This tertiary contact mechanism has been coupled with fiber orientation and incorporated into a unique strain-energy function. The principal stresses for an initial compression cycle can be determined from this strain-energy function according to the hyperelastic constitutive theory. Irreversible deformation and hysteresis necessitate another means to determine the stresses during unloading and reloading. For these stages, the framework used by Beatty et al. (2002) for an ideal Mullins material will be utilized in conjunction with a shift in the stress-free state to determine the principal stresses. The proposed model is then evaluated for uniaxial compression and shown to capture the general behavior of goose down in compression including the irreversible deformation and hysteresis.

Contribution à l'étude de l'anisotropie induite par l'effet Mullins dans les élastomères silicones chargés / A contribution to the study of induced anisotropy by Mullins effect in silicone rubberMachado, Guilherme 12 May 2011 (has links)
Le présent travail étudie la caractérisation expérimentale et la modélisation de l'anisotropie induite par effet Mullins, i.e., la perte de raideur après les premiers cycles de chargement, très souvent observée dans les matériaux de type élastomère. Après une description des caractéristiques mécaniques du matériau silicone utilisé dans notre étude, des essais expérimentaux originaux sont développés pour créer des historiques de chargement complexes. D'une part, des successions d'essais de traction uniaxiale classiques sont réalisées, avec changement de directions de chargement. D'autre part, des états hétérogènes de contrainte et déformation obtenus lors d'essais de gonflement de membrane circulaire ont été complètement caractérisés grâce à des mesures de champs cinématiques réalisées par la méthode de corrélations d'images 3D ; les chargements effectués sont alors de type traction biaxiale-traction simple. Les paramètres clés pour la modélisation de l'effet Mullins ont ainsi pu être mis en évidence, avec notamment ses parts isotrope et anisotrope. Un modèle a ainsi été développé à partir d'une théorie de double réseau prenant en compte des critères expérimentalement motivés. Une version adaptée à une implantation simple dans un code de calculs éléments finis est finalement développée pour la réalisation de calculs de structures. / The present work studies the experimental characterization and modeling of the anisotropy induced by Mullins effect, i.e., the loss of stiffness in the first loading cycles, often observed in rubber-like materials. After a description of the mechanical characteristics of the particular silicone material used in our study, experimental tests are developed to create original and complex loading histories. First, successions of conventional uniaxial tensile tests are performed with changing directions of loading. Second, the state of heterogeneous stress and strain obtained in circular membrane swelling tests was completely characterized by means of kinematic field measurements made by the 3D image correlation method, and the loadings are then biaxial tension followed by uniaxial traction. The key parameters for modeling the Mullins effect were able to be identified, including its isotropic and anisotropic parts. A model was thus developed based on the double-network theory taking into account the experimentally motivated criteria. A suitable version with simple implementation in a finite element computer code was finally developed to allow the calculation of a structural part.

A intensa demanda por petróleo aliado às novas descobertas de poços em condições ainda inexploradas, propulsionam a pesquisa e desenvolvimento de novos componentes e materiais para a indústria petrolífera. A alta responsabilidade desses componentes, como Risers e Bend Stiffners, requer, que antes da sua aplicação em campo, seja realizada uma verificação através de ensaios experimentais, desenvolvidos com o objetivo de representar ao máximo todas as condições em campo. No presente trabalho, um sistema de compensação de deslocamento, com molas elastoméricas, foi desenvolvido para simular um comprimento de Riser retirado da amostra devido à inviabilidade de ensaio com o comprimento real. O material foi caracterizado através de ensaios mecânicos normalizados, ensaios específicos à aplicação e modelos em escala. Logo, um conjunto denominado módulo de compensação foi elaborado.

Os resultados dos ensaios mostram-se dentro das tolerâncias especificadas, atingindo o objetivo do projeto. / The increasing demand for oil, combined with new wells discoveries in unexplored conditions, drives the research and development of new components and materials for the oil industry. The high responsibility of these components, such as Risers and Bend Stiffners, requires verification before field operation through experimental trials developed to achieve all conditions found during its useful life. In this thesis, a displacement compensation system, with elastomeric springs, was developed to simulate a short sample of riser due the inviability of testing the real length. The material was characterized by standard mechanical tests, specific tests for this application and scale models. Therefore, a group called compensation module was developed.

Etude du comportement du néoprène et d'appareils d'appui parasismiques en néoprène fretté / Study of mechanical behaviour of elastomer and of high damping rubber bearingsNguyen, Quang Tam 28 November 2013 (has links)
Selon l’Eurocode 8 et la norme EN 1337-3, le comportement de l’Appareil d'Appui en Néoprène Fretté (AANF) est considéré comme élastique linéaire ou hystérétique linéaire. En réalité, les comportements mécaniques de l’AANF sont très complexes et sont essentiellement ceux du néoprène tels que l’élasticité non linéaire, la viscosité, la plasticité, l’effet Payne, l’effet Mullins, etc. Toutefois, très peu d’études de l’effet Mullins et de la piezo-dépendance existent, et aucun modèle par éléments finis ne permet de modéliser ces phénomènes dans l’AANF. L’objectif de cette thèse est donc l’étude de ces phénomènes sur le néoprène et sur l’AANF. Pour atteindre ces objectifs, la caractérisation de ces phénomènes sur le néoprène est tout d’abord réalisée avec différents types de chargements tels que la relaxation, la traction cyclique, la compression cyclique, le couplage compression statique – cisaillement cyclique. De plus, un dispositif biaxial original est fabriqué afin de caractériser l’AANF sous le chargement de compression statique couplé au cisaillement cyclique. Grâce à ces résultats expérimentaux, un nouveau modèle est développé, permettant de modéliser simultanément l’effet Mullins, la piezo-dépendance ainsi que la viscoélasticité non linéaire du néoprène. / High Damping Rubber Bearings (HDRB) composed of alternating thin horizontal layers of elastomer bonded to steel plates are used to support permanent static loading in compression and cyclic shear in case of earthquakes. The behaviour of HDRB is considered to be linear elastic or linear hysteretic according to The European Standard Eurocode 8 and The Standard EN 1337 - 3. The mechanical behaviour of HDRB under loading is actually very complex and essentially linked to the behaviour of elastomer such as nonlinear elasticity, viscosity, plasticity, Payne effect, and Mullins effect. However, the coupling of Mullins effect and nonlinear viscosity as well as influence of hydrostatic stress on viscoelasticity of elastomer or of HDRB has not been studied yet. The aim of this thesis is thus the study of these effects on elastomer and on HDRB. In order to reach these objectives, characterization of these effects on elastomer is firstly performed with different types of loading such as relaxation test, cyclic tensile test, cyclic compression test and combined static compression – cyclic shear test. Furthermore, an original biaxial device is designed and manufactured in order to characterize the behaviour of HDRB under combined static compression – cyclic shear. Based on these experiments a new finite model is developped to simulate simultaneously Mullins effect, nonlinear viscosity and influence of hydrostatic stress on viscoelasticity of elastomer. Subsequently, this model is used to simulate the response of the HDRB under combined static compression - cyclic shear.

Effet élastocalorique dans le caoutchouc naturel et le terpolymère : Mécanismes responsables de la variation de température et bilan énergétique sous déformation / Elastocaloric effect on natural rubber and terpolymer : Temperature variation mechanism, morphology and energy balance during deformationYoshida 1988-...., Yukihiro 08 July 2016 (has links)
Les effets électrocaloriques, qui se traduisent par une variation de température induite par une variation d’entropie ont été étudiés comme alternative aux systèmes de réfrigération utilisant un cycle de compression/détente. Le travail de thèse se focalise sur l’étude de l’effet élastocalorique dans le caoutchouc naturel et le terpolymère (P(VDF-TrFE-CTFE). En premier lieu, l’effet élastocalorique dans le caoutchouc naturel qui compte parmi les meilleurs candidats, a été évalué pour des cycles de déformation réalisés avec différentes valeurs d’allongement. Une variation de température de 4 °C a pu être observée. Il est usuel d’utiliser la relation déformation/contrainte en fonction de la variation de température pour évaluer l’effet élastocalorique. Il a été démontré que cette méthode ne peut pas être utilisée dans le cas du caoutchouc naturel et qu’elle doit être remplacée par la mesure de la variation de l’énergie mécanique en fonction de la température. Et dans ce cas, une variation linéaire entre ces deux dernières grandeurs a été observée. En réalisant un bilan d’énergie pendant l’essai, non seulement, le rendement énergétique a pu être évalué mais il a été aussi possible de prendre en compte l’effet Mullins et la cristallisation induite par la déformation pour le caoutchouc naturel. Dans un second temps, l’effet élastocalorique a été étudié sur le terpolymère (P(VDF-TrFE-CTFE), ce qui a permis de montrer qu’il était possible d’obtenir une variation de température de 2.1 °C sous réserver de pré-déformer le terpolymère à plus de 1050 % avant. Par comparaison avec d’autres matériaux présentant une bonne conversion élastocalorique, le fort potentiel de ce matériau a pu être mis en évidence. Enfin, il a été mis en évidence que la plus grande partie de l’énergie mécanique était bien convertie en énergie thermique. / Caloric effects (CEs), which are the phenomena that temperature variation is caused by entropy change, have been investigated for the novel system which might be able to replace conventional vapor compression refrigeration system. In the present thesis, the elastocaloric effect (ElCE) of natural rubber (NR) and terpolymer, poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene-chlorotrifluoroethylene) (P(VDF-TrFE-CTFE)), was focused. First of all, NR, which is an excellent candidate material for ElCE, was evaluated in cyclic deformation with different strain levels. It was found that NR exhibits temperature variation of around 4.0 °C. In general, the relation between stress/strain versus temperature variation is used to evaluate ElCE. The unsuitability of such evaluation method for NR was demonstrated. The evaluation method for ElCE which uses energy balance was then proposed. A linear relation between the temperature variation caused by ElCE and the applied mechanical energy by deformation was experimentally found. This fact verifies the suitability of the proposed method. Using the energy balance, besides, not only the conversion efficiency but also the influences of the Mullins effect and the strain-induced crystallization on the ElCE of NR were discussed. ElCE of P(VDF-TrFE-CTFE) was also evaluated in order to find out the potential of polymer. It was found that present terpolymer which is not one of the elastomers can also exhibit a large temperature variation, 2.1 °C, caused by ElCE if a large pre-stretch such as more than 1050 % is applied in advance. By comparison with other materials for ElCE, it was demonstrated that P(VDF-TrFE-CTFE) can be a high potential material for ElCE. It was also shown that P(VDF-TrFE-CTFE) converts most of the applied mechanical energy into the heat energy.

Glued connection for TCC slabs : Experimental and Numerical investigationHalilovic, Ervin, Lotinac, Seid January 2022 (has links)
Timber-concrete composite (TCC) structures are becoming more popular in several industrial applications as an efficient method for optimizing the structural performance and the cost of construction as well as lowering the emissions of carbon dioxide. TCC floors are more sustainable than pure concrete floors and more resistant to vibrations and excessive deflections than pure wooden floors. The effectiveness of a TCC floor is dependent on the connection between the materials. The stiffness and strength of the composite element increases by having a rigid connection. An example of a rigid connection is an adhesive-bonded connection, however obtaining a connection without slip is difficult considering there will always be certain amount of slippage in the connection. In this thesis adhesive connections are investigated with two different types of adhesive, one called Sikasil SG-500 and the other Sika PS. The application of the adhesives for the test specimen differ. Since Sika PS is a more fluid glue, a different approach was necessary than for the Sikasil SG-500. Five test specimen were tested of each adhesive by performing double shear push out tests and comparing the results to a numerical model, which was performed in ABAQUS. In the numerical model, the adhesive was created as a cohesive element. Furthermore the properties of the modeled adhesive was based on the experimental results for respective adhesive. The experimental results showed that both adhesives managed the estimated shear force in the serviceability limit state and the ultimate limit state and yet remained in the elastic region. Sikasil SG-500 turned out to be more flexible while Sika PS specimen resulted in higher shear strength. The short creep tests (30 minutes of a constant load) showed that the deformation increased more for Sika PS than for Sikasil SG-500. However both adhesives had large deformations after only 30 minutes. There was also a difference in the average longitudinal shear strength, where it resulted in 1.06 MPa for Sikasil SG-500 and 2.02 MPa for Sika PS. This study indicates that Sika PS is more preferable in TCC structures than Sikasil SG-500.

Chemisch-mechanisch gekoppelte Modellierung und Simulation oxidativer Alterungsvorgänge in GummibauteilenNaumann, Christoph 28 March 2017 (has links) (PDF)
Aufgrund der großen Bedeutung technischer Gummiwerkstoffe in industriellen Anwendungen ist die Vorhersage des Materialverhaltens ein aktuelles Forschungsgebiet. Insbesondere die Veränderung der Eigenschaften, die durch chemische Prozesse herbeigeführt werden, spielen eine große Rolle, da aufgrund gestiegener Anforderungen an die Haltbarkeit von Bauteilen diese Alterungseffekte verstanden, vorhergesagt und abgeschwächt werden müssen.
Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit wird ein mathematisches Modell hergeleitet, das die chemischen Vorgänge vorhersagt und deren Auswirkungen auf wichtige Eigenschaften in einem mechanischen Materialmodell beachtet. Insbesondere der Oxidation durch Luftsauerstoff wird Rechnung getragen.
Das mechanische Materialverhalten alternder Gummiwerkstoffe wird mit Hilfe eines neuartigen Ansatzes modelliert. Das in dieser Arbeit vorgestellte Dynamische-Netzwerk-Modell betrachtet die Auswirkungen der chemischen Reaktionen auf das mechanische Verhalten als einen kontinuierlichen Netzwerkumbau durch das Entfernen und neue Einsetzen von Verbindungen zwischen Polymerketten. Basierend auf experimentellen Erkenntnissen werden Hypothesen formuliert, die eine Kopplung zwischen den Oxidationsreaktionen und der Veränderung des mechanischen Verhaltens herstellen. Durch Beachtung von Diffusion und Reaktion kann die lokale Sauerstoffverteilung in großvolumigen Bauteilen berechnet und der Effekt der diffusionslimitierten Oxidation (DLO-Effekt) vorhergesagt werden.
Um eine Bestimmung der Modellparameter zu ermöglichen, werden verschiedene Experimente vorgeschlagen, mathematisch modelliert und deren Eignung zur Parameteridentifikation analysiert. Mit einer vergleichsweise geringen Anzahl von Experimenten können sowohl die chemischen als auch die mechanischen Modellparameter sicher identifiziert werden.
In dieser Arbeit wird zudem ein sogenannter gestaffelter Lösungsalgorithmus vorgeschlagen, der das Alterungsproblem nach einer mathematischen Entkopplung unterschiedlicher Feldprobleme über geeignete Kopplungsvariablen effizient berechnen kann. Mit Hilfe dieses Algorithmus kann eine Simulation effizient durchgeführt und das Alterungsverhalten komplexer Strukturen vorhergesagt werden.
Die Simulation anwendungsnaher Strukturen zeigt, dass die abgeleiteten Modelle und Algorithmen problemlos in einem industriellen Umfeld einsetzbar sind. / Due to the great importance of rubber materials in industrial applications, the prediction of the material behavior is a current research field. Particularly the property changes that are induced by chemical processes play a major role, as these aging effects must be understood, predicted and reduced due to the increased requirements regarding the durability of components.
In the context of this thesis, a mathematical model that predicts and considers the chemical processes and their effects on important properties in a mechanical material model is derived. Oxidation through atmospheric oxygen is specifically examined in this work.
The mechanical material behavior of aging rubber materials is modeled using a novel approach. The dynamic network model introduced in this paper considers the effects of the chemical reactions on the mechanical behavior as a continuous restructuring of the network by removing and inserting new crosslinks between polymer chains. Based on experimental obervations a coupling between the oxidation reactions and a change of the mechanical material behavior is proposed. By taking into account the diffusion and reaction the local distribution of oxygen in large sized components can be computed. Thus, the effect of diffusion limited oxidation (DLO effect) can be predicted.
In order to make an identification of the model parameters possible, different experiments are suggested, modeled mathematically and their suitability for parameter identification is analyzed. Not only the chemical, but also the mechanical model parameters can be identified reliably using a comparably few number of experiments.
Moreover, a so-called staggered solution algorithm that can calculate the aging problem efficiently after a mathematical uncoupling of the field problems using a suitable coupling variable is introduced. This algorithm can perform a simulation efficiently and predict the aging behavior of complex structures.
The simulation of application oriented structures proofs the applicability of the derived models and algorithms within an industrial environment.
