Abstract: In order to impede stress wave propagation in mechanical boom system, this paper study on contact interface rough effect on stress wave propagation. The model of stress wave propagation was established. On stress wave test platform, it was tested that stress wave through the contact interface roughness between two contact interface. The results show that small surface rough is benefit for stress wave through contact interface; with the surface rough increase, stress wave through contact interface reduce.

Abstract: The deposition of coatings on the surface of carbon fiber will be helpful to their applications. However, they are unsuitable to be deposited due to their low surface free energies, poor wettability and poor adhesions. The objective of this work is to modify carbon fibers by Dielectric barrier discharges(DBD)in ambient argon . The chemical and physical changes induced by the treatments on carbon fibers surface are examined using contact angle measurements and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The interfacial adhesion of CF/EP composites are analyzed by a single fiber composite (SFC) for filament fragmentation test. The contact angles of the plasma-treated samples are visibly reduced than the untreated samples. XPS results reveal that the carbon fibers modified with the DBD at an atmospheric pressure show a significant increase in oxygen-containing groups, such as C–O,C=O and O–C=O. The results of SFC tests show that the treated carbon fibers composites could possess excellent interfacial properties with mixed resins. These results demonstrate that the surfaces of the carbon fibers samples are more active, hydrophilic and rough after plasma treatments using a DBD operating in ambient argon.

The chemical and physical changes induced by the treatments on carbon fibers surface are examined using contact angle measurements and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The interfacial adhesion of CF/EP composites are analysised by a single filament pull-out test. The contact angles of the plasma-treated samples are visibly reduced than the untreated samples.

Abstract: In this paper, the effect of material’s wettability on the droplet impact has been investigated by numerical apporach. The unsteady flow behaviors of liquid droplet impacting against the rough solid surface with different wettabilities have been simulated based on lattice Boltzmann method. The spreading and bounding characterisitcs of droplet have been discussed. For the hydrophilic material, the droplet will sink into the grooves among roughness bumps, and its apparent contact angle in steady stead will be smaller than its corresponding intrinsic contact angle; while for the hydrophilic material, droplet will flow into the grooves but suspend on the top of roughness elements without any contacting with the bottom surface, and the apparent contact angle is larger than its intrinsic contact angle.

Abstract: Sliding velocity has a direct impact on friction heat and contact situation. Frictional heating and associated temperature seriously affects the material chemical and physical - mechanical properties, and is one of the direct factors on the wear mechanism. To analyze the influence of the sliding speed on the maximum contact temperature, contact pressure, stress, etc, a 3D thermo-mechanical coupling model for the rough surface frictional sliding is established. The rough surface is characterized based on fractal theory. The model considers friction contact between an elastic flat plane and an elasto-plastic rough surface. Also, the model integrates the heat flux coupling between the sliding surfaces and allows the analysis of the effects of elastic-plastic deformation of rough body and the interplay among asperities. The numerical results from the analysis and simulation show that the maximum contact temperature increases with the increasing of the sliding velocity. But the maximum VonMises equivalent stress and the maximum contact pressure have few relationships with sliding speed. They may increase or reduce with the sliding velocity increasing. Some results are validated by research’s results available in the literature.

Abstract: A thermo-mechanical coupling model for the rough surface is established. The model considers friction contact between a rigid flat plane and a rough surface based on 3D fractal theory and allows the analysis of the effects of elastic-plastic deformation of rough body and the interplay among asperities. The contact pressure distribution for the static state beneath different loading mode and for the dynamic state in the presence of the frictional heat flux is found. The results show the fluctuation of the average contact pressure during the process of loading is related to the velocity of loading. The synthetical function of multiple factors such as the thermal deformation, the rising temperature, the interaction between asperities makes the complicated relationships among the maximum temperature, the maximum contact pressure and the real contact area.
