Abstract: |
||||
|
This paper describes the design of a new pneumatically load applied machine that has been specifically design for studying the dynamic mechanical behavior of COT (wooden bed). Such type of equipment has been used to generate simple and measurable fracture processes under moderate to fast loading rates which produce complicated crack patterns that are difficult to analyze. We are developing the machine as a facility to provide experimental data to validate numerical data of impact load on COT that observe kinetic energy during collision. The machine consists of two main parts, the mechanical structure and the data acquisition system. The development process included the design, development, fabrication, and function tests of the machine. |
