Last time § Mechanics § Physics revisited § Electric motor characteristics
Next time § Assignment review/crit. Please bring a graphic of your board design and schematic.
This time § Some more physics: § Bending and stretching § Construction methods: § § Molding Welding Structural components Modular systems
Bending: moment of inertia again § The 2 D moment of inertia about the x-axis is b § For a rectangle: h y x
Bending of a beam § We can make a beam bend by applying a moment (torque) to its end. The radius of curvature satisfies: M y which is r for a rectangular beam. E is the elastic (Young’s) modulus. z
Beam “spring” § The vertical displacement of the tip t is approximately t L 2/2 r L t § The bending moment due to force F at tip is M=FL § The spring constant at the tip is k = F/t which is M r
Beam stretching § On the other hand the spring constant for stretching a rectangular beam is: § Compared with the bending spring constant which is: § The ratio is h 2/6 L 2. Assuming L >> h, the beam is much stiffer in stretching than in bending.
I-beams and honeycomb § Bending stiffness can be increased by moving material outward (h 3 term). § This is the principle of I-beams and honeycomb.
Mass-spring systems § A mass at the end of a spring can vibrate with a natural frequency which is
Example § Vibration in linear actuators: § Natural frequency of the cantilever, ¼” Aluminum, is about 100 Hz (!)
Example § Diagonal bracing: § Bending becomes a streching mode. Natural frequency increases to over 1 k. Hz
Vibration in plastics § Metals have relatively low loss when deformed. Vibration is often an issue. § Plastics have much higher loss, so vibrational energy dissipates much faster.
Making shapes: sculpting § Molding kits are available from Tap Plastics and others. § Two part epoxy “magic-sculp” provides a claylike consistency for about two hours, then sets to a hard plastic model. § The model can still be worked when hard by cutting or sanding.
Making shapes: molding § From a plastic, wood, or metal model, a negative mold can be cast from a flexible plastic such as silicone or urethane.
Making shapes: molding § From the negative mold, copies can be cast. The casting materials are typically urethanes or polyester. Can be clear or colored.
Attaching shapes: Gluing § For plastics, glues are available that closely approximate the strength of the original plastic. § This generally gives best results. Excessive strength in a joint can create strain in the material near the joint.
Attaching shapes: Gluing § Many glues are available for wood. At the high end, epoxies are stronger than the wood itself. § Woodworking “yellow glues” provide very good performance as well and have similar strength to the wood being joined. § Dowels or dovetailing can be used to increase the contact surface – but may not necessarily increase strength.
Welding § Welding is joining pieces of similar metal using molten material of the same type. § The most common joining weld is a “fillet weld”
Welding § The size of the weld adds strength. § The shape of the weld relieves stress that can occur at sharp concavities in a part.
Arc Welding § Creates a thick weld using flux/wire which is part of the electrode:
Oxy-Acetylene Welding § Oxygen-Acetylene torch creates heat, flux/wire is fed separately: § Aside: Oxy-acetylene often used for cutting
MIG (Metal Inert Gas) Welding § Aluminum oxidizes instantly in air and requires an inert gas during welding. MIG welding uses an arc surrounding by gas flow (e. g. Argon).
Spot welding § Normally used to join sheet material. § Sheets are placed together and very high current passed through the join.
Truss systems Trussworks Inc.
Truss systems § Come in either aluminum or steel, 2, 3, 4 -leg. § Fast-connect screw connections between elements.
Modular construction systems § Can be used to build artifacts from linear pieces.
Modular construction systems § “T-slot” systems comprise extruded aluminum beams that are joined using standard fasteners. Examples of “Minitec” framing:
Modular construction systems § Joining Minitec elements:
Modular construction systems § Minitec includes active elements (motorized motion stages):
