Does the conductivity coefficient between surfaces change is the conduction takes place in a low pressure vacuum? Does the lack of atmosphere significantly change conduction?
I can imagine if two surfaces had 100% contact, that the atmosphere would have no effect, but most surfaces have some...
I have an application that needs to bond a rough surface (Ra 300-2000) to a 5" radius cylindrical mild steel part. The challenge is the part is used in a >450F continuous and HCl vapor environment.
Any suggestions for both the rough surface and bonding technique?
I'd love to find a...
What would be the appropriate model for the buckling of a curved plate? I'm looking to understand buckling in thin films (0.005" thick polyester) when it is in a curved shape, like a half cylinder. This for printing press style handling systems, where the product is wrapped around a...
