Self piercing rivets (SPR) are now an acceptable cost and practical method of fasteners. Does anyone know of a short course that offers practical design and analysis of Lap and T-Peel joints made usinG SPR
Hi
Self piercing rivets (SPR) are well established as a cost effective and practical method either by manual application or robotically implemented eg, Jaguar, Audi and Bentley cars, Silos and water tanks etc. Does anyone know of a practical design method and analysis course that deals with Lap...
Thanks RB1957
Yes, I agree a great reduction of kt can be achieved by traditional geometric adjustments that usually involve some form of fillet.
Applying a compressive stress by shot peening as you suggest, into an area prone to kt maybe a consideration, it would preload the region and reduce...
Hi Terry
Your suggestion about compressive preload is interesting particularly if I consider a ceramic blade design as crack fracture growth would be minimised. I am not aware of any nozzle guide vane to turbine blade configuration that would offer the compressive blade scenario. The Turbine...
Carbon-Carbon- Quasi-isotropic Youngs Modulus properties for non post temperature treated are aprox 28000N/mm^2
Can bond it.
Can weld it
Can machine it, (Mill eg)
Can cut it (hacksaw etc)
Can thread it.
Density between 1.4 to 1.7gm/cc
very low coefficient of Friction (basically graphite)
It...
Does any one know of a method to design a gas turbine or compressor blade so that under a combined tension (CF) and gas bending load the traditional located stress peaks at LE,TE and Blade to Platform are avoided.
