Critical Experimental and Theoretical Tests for Failure Criteria

Submitted by Richard M. Chr… on

 A new section has been added to the website http://www.failurecriteria.com/.  This is on critical tests for failure criteria.  It summarizes most of the previous entries to the website and provides evaluations of the most salient of the failure criteria by comparing with high quality experimental data.

 

Well-Posed Problem in Partial Differentrial Equations

Submitted by mohammedlamine on

To avoid the Ambiguity appearing in the Formulation Process using the Numerical Methods of Partial Differentrial Equations it is Important to Satisfy the following Conditions given by Fletcher C.A.J. 1989, p18 :

 "The governing Equations and Auxiliary (Initial and Boundary) Conditions are Well-Posed Mathematically if the Following three Condtions are met:

Coefficient of Friction & Wear Testing of Plasma Coating

Submitted by NANOVEA on

A major concern for plasma coatings is how wear resistant they will prove to be on the final product. Since

plasma coatings are a popular use for automobile engines, these coatings are tested through strenuous

conditions. If the coating on the engine itself wears off at a fast rate than the life expectancy of that

particular engine or part becomes a problematic concern. With the plasma coating wearing off, the parts

originally being protected will become exposed to melting temperatures, corrosion and other potentially
