Characterization of mechanical properties of aluminum 3003, 6061 and 7075 subjected to equal channel angular extrusion
(Texas A&M University, 1995)
Equal channel angular extrusion (ECAE) is a novel method for introducing large amounts of simple shear into materials. In comparison with conventional deformation processes, ECAE has a number of significant advantages. The ...
Quantitative assessment of disassembly difficulty in product recycling
(Texas A&M University, 1995)
Design of products for case-of-disassembly is a key aspect of product recycling. Similarly, design tools which allow alternative designs to be compared with respect to case-of-disassembly are of great importance. An improved ...

Effect of Refrigerant Charge, Duct Leakage, and Evaporator Air Flow on the High Temerature Performance of Air Conditioners and Heat Pumps
(Texas A&M University, 1995)
An experimental study was conducted to quantify the effect of several installation items on the high outdoor ambient temperature performance of air conditioners. These installation items were: improper amount of refrigerant ...
The Effects of Outdoor Heat Exchanger Hydrophobic Treatment on the Performance of an Air Source Heat Pump
(Texas A&M University, 1995)
The effects of outdoor heat exchanger hydrophobic treatment on the performance of an air source heat pump were investigated. The base case tests used a bare aluminum outdoor heat exchanger in the experimental setup. The ...
Impact damping applied to MDOF structures

Simulation of bristle tip lift-off in a brush seal
(Texas A&M University, 1995)
A computational procedure to simulate the bristle tip lift-off mechanism in a brush seal is established. This involves both macroscopic and microscopic modeling of the brush seal. A porous media model is used in the ...
Robot calibration without scaling
(Texas A&M University, 1995)
Many engineering problems are studied through numerical schemes that use large matrices to mathematically describe the systems being analyzed. Some of the problems require iterative algorithms. In many cases the matrices ...
Measurements of unbalance response in a squeeze film damper test rotor-kit
(Texas A&M University, 1995)
Measurements of the unbalance response in a squeeze film damper (SFD) rotorkit are presented. The rotor-SFD test apparatus and instrumentation are fully described. Results from the measurements of the system unbalance ...
Development of a three-dimensional finite element model of a horse's foot
(Texas A&M University, 1995)
The horse's foot, defined as the hoof wall and all the structures within it, is subjected to intense load-bearing and energy-absorbing demands. The foot is actually a complex assembly of components that deform as they ...
