Frictional Behavior Of Flat Sliding Surfaces, Elmer J. Weiter Aug 1957

Frictional Behavior Of Flat Sliding Surfaces, Elmer J. Weiter

Bachelors’ Theses

The objectives of this thesis are four in number. The first is to advance the basic understanding of the frictional behavior of materials in flat surface sliding, especially in the breakaway region where the coefficient of static friction is predominant. The second is to present an apparatus incorporating the use of flat contact surfaces, to provide accurate determination of the coefficient of static friction and some of the kinetic characteristics. The third is to establish a procedure of testing such that the static frictions is accurately analyzed to include variations with time and wear. The fourth objective is to establish …

A New Design Key Locked Insert And Automatic Key Installation Tool, Holt J. Gay May 1957

A New Design Key Locked Insert And Automatic Key Installation Tool, Holt J. Gay

Mechanical Engineering ETDs

There has been an increasing need for a better steel insert or bushing between aluminum and steel bolts in the last few years with the rapid growth of the aircraft and missile industries. The steel insert or bushing threaded internally and externally, by increasing the area of contact with the aluminum raises the strength of the bolt fastening combination approximately 300 per cent or causes a 125,000 PSI bolt to fail rather than 40,000 PSI aluminum to fail. In addition, galling and seizing are practically eliminated. A bolt installed and removed just a few times in aluminum is likely to …

The Stability Of Rectangular Plates With Built-In Supports At The Edges, John Bruce Miles Jan 1957

The Stability Of Rectangular Plates With Built-In Supports At The Edges, John Bruce Miles

Masters Theses

"The purpose of this investigation is to derive an expression for the critical stress for a thin rectangular plate with compressive edge loading. The load is applied on two opposite edges with the remaining two edges built-in. (See Fig. 1) This is essentially a stability problem.

Rectangular plates with compressive edge loading and various edge restraints appear in a number of engineering structures. Bulkheads of ships could be so classified, as could certain components of fabricated beams and columns. The new supersonic B-58 bomber developed by Convair has a honeycomb wing structure dictated by heat conduction requirements. This, too, involves …
