During development work of new tools with cemented carbide inserts it is very important to have knowledge and understanding of how cutting forces and insert clamping forces are distributed on the common contact surfaces between insert and tip seat. The reason is
The function of the loader arm of the high-speed pneumatic loader is to load the work piece from the conveyer belt into the die machine and vice-versa. The purpose of the work was to develop a Finite Element Model of the loader
This dissertation investigates the durability of solder interconnects of area array packages mounted on Printed Wiring Assemblies (PWAs) subjected to dynamic flexural loads, using a combination of testing, empirical curve fitting and mechanistic modeling. Dynamic 4-point bend tests are conducted on a
Due to design and weight properties the automotive industry increasingly substitutes ordinary sheet metal with polymer products where one of these new materials is sheet molding compound (SMC). Therefore is an interest from the industry to do Finite Element Analysis (FEA) on
