    Notes: Recently developed solid modelling systems for the design of complex physical solids using interactive computer graphics offer the exciting possibility of an integrated design/analysis system. Called geometric modellers, these systems build complex solids from primitive solids (cubes, cylinders, spheres, solid patches, etc.) and macro solids (combination of primitives)3, 4, 8, 16, 18, 25, 38. To provide an effective structural analysis capability for these systems, methods must be devised to ease the burden of discretizing the solid geometry into a user controlled (usually locally graded) finite element mesh. The purpose of this paper is to describe an interactive solid mesh generation system capable of generating valid meshes of well-proportional tetrahedral finite elements for the decomposition of multiply connected solid structures. The system uses a semi-automatic node insertion procedure to locate element node points within and on the surface of a structure. An independent automatic three-dimensional triangulator then accepts these nodes as input and connects them to form a valid finite element mesh oftetrahedral elements. Although this report makes use of a modeller based on a constructive solid geometry representation (a so-called CSG modeller), the mesh generation strategy elaborated herein is completely general and makes no particular use of the CSG representation.

    Notes: The goal of mathematical modelling of sheet metal forming processes is to provide predictive tools for use in the design of stamping processes and the selection of sheet materials. Most current approaches to finite element modelling of large deformation, elastic-plastic sheet metal forming problems use a rate form of the virtual work (equilibrium) equations, and a single-field finite element representation of the displacement components. Called the incremental method, this approach does not produce approximations which satisfy the discrete equilibrium equations at all times, and consequently it demands small time steps to insure stability and numerical accuracy. This paper describes a variant of the mixed method in which displacements, stresses, effective strain and pressures are all given separate finite element representations. The equilibrium equations in non-rate form are discretized to produce a system of algebraic equations which are coupled with the constitutive equations and then integrated using state-of-the-art numerical software. When used to model rate sensitive sheet materials in hydrostatic bulging, plane strain punch stretching and hemispherical punch stretching, the new approach proved to be between 6 and 26 times as fast as the old incremental method.

    Notes: The tacticity of poly(cyclohexyl α-chloroacrylate) (PCCA) was studied by 500 MHz 1H and 25 MHz 13C NMR spectroscopy. The influence of the polymer configuration was observed at three different carbon resonances: The backbone methylene carbon, the carbonyl carbon and the quaternary carbon. Tetrad tacticities of PCCA measured from the resonance of the backbone methylene carbon were in good agreement with tetrad values obtained by 1H NMR. The polymer obtained was syndiotactic rich and obeyed Bernoullian statistics in its tacticity distribution.

    Notes: Many current approaches to finite element modelling of large deformation elastic - plastic forming problems use a rate form of the virtual work (equilibrium) equations, and a finite element representation of the displacement components. Called the incremental method, this approach produces a three-field formulation in which displacements, stresses and effective strain are dependent variables. Next, the formulation is converted to a one-field displacement formulation by an algebraic time discretization which uses a low order explicit time-stepping procedure to integrate the equations. This approach does not produce approximations which satisfy the discrete equilibrium equations at all times and, moreover, the advantage of the single-field algebraic formulation is realized at the expense of very small time steps needed to produce stability and accuracy in the numerical calculations.This paper describes a variant of the mixed method in which all three field variables (displacements, stresses and effective strain) are given finite element representations. The discrete equilibrium equations then generate a nonlinear system of algebraic equations whose solutions represent a manifold, while the constitutive equations form a system of ordinary differential equations. A commercially available, variable time step/variable order code is then used to integrate this differential/algebraic system. When applied to the problem of hydrostatic bulging of a membrane, the new approach requires far less computer time than the incremental method.

    Notes: A systematic four-stage investigation of eight unpigmented coating formulations, including three vinyl, two polyurethanes, and three epoxy systems was done to provide baseline structural information upon which an improved understanding and an optimization of protective coatings can be founded. First, the results from dynamic mechanical measurements are provided and discussed for the base polymer component in each coating system. Second, the effects of humidity on the dynamic mechanical properties of these base polymers were determined at room temperature. The extent of property degradation was monitored by calculating the Tg depression with increased humidity, assuming a temperature-humidity superposition. The extent of degradation, as monitored by the Tg, was found to correlate directly with the level of hydrogen bonding in these coatings. Third, the influence of typical coating additives (a TCP plasticizer and a rosin hardener) on the properties of two of the vinyl coating systems was investigated. In the final stage, the synergistic effects of absorbed moisture and these additives on the coatings properties were investigated at room temperature. Increases in the concentration of these additives was found to magnify the degradation effect of increased humidity. This magnified degradation has been assigned to increased water absorption with increases in the concentration of either of these additives.

    Dielectric studies of the cure of epoxy matrix systems (1986)

    Notes: Dielectric spectroscopy was used to monitor the curing process of two epoxy resin systems. The basic system (system I) consisted of DGEBA (a difunctional epoxy) and a polyamide in a 50-phr mixture. In addition, a comparative analysis was performed on a high-performance resin system (system II) used primarily in unidirectional composite applications. This system contained TGDDM (a tetrafunctional epoxy) and DDS (a tetrafunctional amine) in a 25-phr mixture. The dielectric data were obtained using a simple yet functional sample cell electrode designed and constructed in the laboratory. For system I, isothermal dielectric data were used to determine apparent activation energies for the temperature range from 22 to 70°C. The data showed that the activation energy was a function of temperature and increased as the temperature of the cure increased. This indicated that the reaction mechanism was also a function of temperature. For system II, data were collected between 140 and 190°C and an overall activation energy for that temperature range was determined. The overall activation energies for both systems, calculated using dielectric spectroscopy, compared favorably to those obtained using differential scanning calorimetry. Also, using a wider frequency range (240 Hz to 2 MHz), Argand diagrams were constructed and modeled with the Cole-Cole empirical equation for systems with a distribution of relaxation times. This justified the calculation of average relaxation times, which could then be related to the bulk physical properties of the polymer, such as viscosity. Modified Argand diagrams, where ε″ is plotted against ε′ at one frequency as a function of time, were also constructed, which aided in the understanding of the curing processes for these thermosetting systems.

    Structure-property relationships in thermoplastic elastomers. IV. Dynamic mechanical relaxations in polydioxolane, polybutyltrioxocane, and poly(propylene oxide) polyurethanes (1988)

    Notes: Dynamic mechanical measurements had been made on polyurethanes of a range of hard segment content (HSC) obtained from α,ω-dihydroxy derivatives of polydioxolane, polybutyltrioxocane, and poly(propylene oxide) of 2000-12,000 MW coupled with MDI and TDI with hydroxyethyl phthalamide chain extenders. N-methylated chain extender was used to investigate the effect of hydrogen bonding. A broad γ transition was observed between -100 and -115°C attributable to the local motion of methylene sequences with a distribution of relaxations. The β-transition between -55 and -72°C is influenced by the degree of hydration; the α-transition occurs at nearly the same temperatures for all the TPEs, independent of HSC and thermal history. The magnitude of the loss tangent peak is nearly proportional to the soft segment content; the peak corresponds to the glass transition. An α-transition at higher temperature is sensitive to the structure of soft segment, HSC, and thermal history. It is probably associated with the melting of some weakly ordered regions in the soft domain. The hard domain counterpart was observed at the next higher temperature as the ∊-relaxation. The final large loss of storage modulus occurs at temperatures much below the melting transition.

    Notes: Acid-catalyzed degradation of poly(2-butyl-1,3,6-trioxocane) (1) has been studied. With ethyl tosylate as the catalyst, the cyclic monomer 2 was the major product. The minor products are cis and trans isomers of C3H7CH=CH—OCH2CH2OCH2CH2OH, and three stereoisomers of C3H7CH=CH—OCH2CH2OCH2CH2O—CH=CH—C3H7 elucidated by 1H and 13C NMR, IR, electron impact and chemical ionization MS, and in the case of 2 also by comparison with an authentic sample. With 98% H2SO4 as the catalyst 2 is only a minor product. The major products are diethylene glycol, valeraldehyde, and 1,4-dioxane with some 2-butyl-1,3-dioxolane. Capillary GC/mass spectrometry led to identification of the following less abundant products: tri-n-propylbenzene, α,β-unsaturated aldehydes, and cyclic dimer. The products of H2SO4-catalyzed decomposition of polymer were also obtained by heating monomer 2 with H2SO4. A detailed mechanism for the formation of the eight-member ring 2 in the decomposition is proposed which involves unzipping proceeds via open carbocation intermediates. According to the principle of microscopic reversibility, the same open carbocation is the propagating species in the polymerization of 2 under similar conditions.

    Notes: Aromatic diamines containing —SO2— and —S— moieties have been used to prepare soluble polyimides with ditrifluoromethyl methane bis(phthalic anhydride) (F-series polyimides) and polyamic acid with pyromellitic dianhydride (P-series). Gamma radiolysis gave G(S) values for scission between 1 to 2 with no crosslinking. Significant weight loss occurred with radiolysis is attributable to efficient —SO2— bond scission for the F-series polyimides, as well as imidization in the cases of P-series polyamic acids.
