  • ESTIMATION OF LOAD CAPACITY OF ADHESIVE JOINTS FOR TRANSPORT ENGINEERING

    pg(s) 3-6

    Adhesive joints are widely applied in transport engineering. Crack resistance is an important parameter determining the load capacity and durability of adhesive joints. The calculation-experimental method, which allows to raise the accuracy and reliability of an estimation of the crack resistance of the adhesive compositions is proposed. The proposed method can be implemented using a test station that ensures the loading of double cantilever glued beams by equal and oppositely directed moments. The mathematical model for determining the value of crack advancing energy, includes only one independent parameter (the bending moment) was obtained. It is established that change of geometrical parameters of the proposed experimental models slightly effects (less than 3.5 %) on value of crack advancing energy.

    pg(s) 14-18

    In the presented work investigated the changes of power characteristics of deep drilling package of printed circuit board’s hard metal micro drills depending on the drilling depth, cutting data and geometry of the drill.

Proposed new construction of micro drills vary-angle spiral grooves in such a way that the angle is the maximum value at the top of the drill and uniformly decreases towards the end of the working parts. The drills are manufactured with different inclinations of the spiral grooves. Based on the experiments of them chosen more for its near standing power rates to the standard drill bit and its comparative test with a standard drill bit, bringing them up to the breakage, thanks to which the proven advantages of drills new design.

    Taking into account the results of the experiments proposed drill elongated structures to improve performance by increasing the processing drilling depth and accordingly the number of plates in the package of printed circuit boards.

  • EXAMINATION OF ACOUSTIC PROPERTIES OF A GEAR PUMP AFTER TOOTH ROOT UNDERCUTTING USING THE INDUCTION OF DECISION TREES

    pg(s) 19-22

    Among cavity pumps used in hydraulic drive systems as energy generators, gear pumps are the most widespread. Apart from their numerous advantages from the point of view of noisiness and the delivery fluctuation coefficient, they are inferior to others. Steps are undertaken to decrease the noisiness. According to the research results, own acoustic parameters of the pump depend on the technology and performance quality as well as on the geometrical features of the tooth profile. The paper is restricted to the analysis of acoustic properties of an innovative gear unit after tooth root undercutting. Acoustic properties have been described with taking into consideration induction of decision trees and decision rules.

    pg(s) 27-32

    Today, there is a significant interest in alternative energy sources for vehicles, as a result of continuous concern for the environmental impact and for consumption of the primary energy sources, which are limited. Diesel engines present particularly significant emission like nitrogen oxides, particulate matter, hydrocarbons and black smoke. This paper present a literature review on some alternative fuels for diesel engines, as pure plant oil, biodiesel and compressed natural gas, and their impact on diesel engine emissions.

  • SYNCHRONIZATION T-CHAOTIC SYSTEM

    pg(s) 37-41

    In this paper, we study on chaos, one of the most important phenomenons based on complex nonlinear dynamics. We will focus on T-system chaos and in continue, using three synchronization methods, Brain Emotional Learning Based Intelligent Controller (BELBIC), Generalized Backstepping Method (GBM) and adaptive method, the chaotic system will be synchronized. To prove usability of the controllers, the results will be compared with the results obtained by Active Control and Backstepping Controllers. According to the results, proposed controllers synchronize chaotic systems with higher speed, lower setting time, lower overshoot and smaller control signal versus active control and backstepping controllers.

    pg(s) 48-50

    Solution of gas-dynamics problems containing different fine structures (shock waves, boundary layers, traces, jets, etc.) as well as areas within which the flows are described by different models of turbulence by traditional grid methods is quiet difficult. These tasks are encouraged to address, using neural network technology in the analysis and grid-analytical form by stochastic optimization. The proposed method is demonstrated on the problems of mixing jets. Numerical experiments have shown several advantages of this approach: reducing the cost of computer time, good accuracy, the connection of patchy pattern of flow in a single unit.

  • ENERGY TECHNOLOGY ACTIVATION COMPONENTS FUNCTIONAL MATERIALS BASED ON POLYMERIC MATRIX

    pg(s) 51-52

    Investigated the mechanisms of interfacial interactions in composite materials based on thermoplastic matrices modified with dispersed particles of silicon and carbon-containing compounds with high energy activity. It was found that the laser treatment of particulate and fibrous particles occurs comprehensive modification of the surface layer, which consists in shaping the development of the morphology of the surface layer and increase its energy. For the modification of thermoplastic matrix including high-viscosity (polyamides, PTFE) prospectively the use of dispersed fragments of carbon fiber (CF) fraction 50-150 microns, subjected to the effects of a short pulse laser, having developed the morphology of the surface layer and the presence of defects through thermal degradation. When using this modifier in an amount of 5-30 wt.% for filling PA6, PA66, PTFE provides increased of parameters deformation and strength characteristics due to the increased mechanical component adhesive interaction at the interface of "matrix-filler". An additional effect is realized in the processing of the surface layer of CF fluoride compounds oligomeric or polymer-oligomeric structure. The modified fluorinated hydrocarbon components fragments CF when laser pulse processing are exposed to the active low molecular weight products ablation, so that the surface layers are formed with a high affinity to the matrix polytetrafluoroethylene. The complex method of modifying CF is effective for highly filled fluoro composites containing 25-35 wt.% of carbon fillers due to the decrease in the probability of formation of cluster structures of the filler particles. Dispersed particles silicate (clay, tripoli, talc) and carbon (graphite, carbon black, shungite) when exposed to laser radiation susceptible to degradation with the formation of nanoscale fragments in a moving layer, thus increasing their activity in the processes of the interfacial interaction in the formation of composites based on oligomeric and polymeric matrices.
