Design shape

Effort should be made to design shapes that will reduce the effects of high fluid velocity, turbulence and the formation of gas bubbles. 

Since shape integrity under load is a major consideration for structural products, low modulus plastic products are designed shape-wise for efficient use of the material to afford maximum stiffness and overcome their low modulus. These type plastics and products represent most of the plastic products produced worldwide (1,3,6, 9,10,14, 20, 28, 35, 36, 62, 64). 

There are different techniques that have been used for over a century to increase the modulus of elasticity of plastics. Orientation or the use of fillers and/or reinforcements such as RPs can modify the plastic. There is also the popular and extensively used approach of using geometrical design shapes that makes the best use of materials to improve stiffness even though it has a low modulus. Structural shapes that are applicable to all materials include shells, sandwich structures, and folded plate structures (Fig. 3-8). These widely used shapes employed include other shapes such as dimple sheet surfaces. They improve the flexural stiffness in one or more directions. 

Plastic suppliers can provide the initial information on shrinkage that has to be added to the design shape and will influence its processing. The shrinkage and postshrinkage will depend on the types of plastics and their... 

The designer can use conventional plastics that are available in sheet form, in I-beams or other forms, as is common with many other materials. Although this approach with plastics has its place, the real advantage with plastic lies in the ability to process them to fit the design shape, particularly when it comes to complex shapes. Examples include... 

Flexible RP These materials are used with elastomeric materials providing special engineered products such as conveyor belts, mechanical belts, high temperature or chemical resistant suits, wire and cable insulation, and architectural designed shapes. 

To overcome this drawback, capillary sectorial fibres (Figure 11) were fabricated31. In this case part of the preform ground to the designed shape was inserted into a circularly symmetric silica tube and drawn. The active length of the sensor is defined by the distance between the input and output of the analyte produced in the capillary wall by special diamond tools. Despite promising results achieved, difficulties in the application of sensitive layers on the core surface remain a drawback of this kind of fibres and the...

Secure the bench pin to the surface of a table with the C-clamp and place the area of the metal to be sawed across the V of the pin. Saw out the design shape using a vertical sawing motion. Notice that the blade cuts only on the down stroke. When turning a corner, move the saw up and down while slowly turning the metal. 

Self-assembly is the key. Atoms and molecules are driven into pre-designed shapes by intermolecular forces and geometrical...

Another approach to designing shape-selective heterogeneous oxidation catalysts was to use redox metal oxides as the pillaring agents in the preparation of pillared clays. These redox pillared clays have been used for a number of selective oxidations. Chromium pillared montmorillonite (Cr-PILC) is an effective catalyst for the selective oxidation of alcohols with tert-butyl hydroperoxide. 7 Primary aliphatic and aromatic alcohols are oxidized to the aldehydes in very good yields. Secondary alcohols are selectively oxidized in the presence of a primary hydroxy group of a diol to give keto alcohols in excellent yields (Eqn. 21.12). 2...

When the kinetics of the combustion reactions are taken into consideration, there are also other design shapes and operating ranges for the FLOX burners. Even undesired spontaneous reactions between air and fuel can be suppressed, inasmuch as temperature in the mixing zone is kept low or flow velocities are well above flame... 

A good number of altogether different designs (shapes) of condenser are available that are meant to be used for a specific purpose and also the nature of reaction involved. These condensers are of FOUR different types, namely ... 

It is possible to design shape descriptors that incorporate nuclear vibrations. However, the simpler approach to shape dynamics is to apply static descriptors to entire domains of nuclear configurations. We then observe the interrelation between molecular shape and molecular motions (e.g., vibrations, reaction paths).32,33 in this case, we find a range of values in static parameters. The span of such a range (e.g., the fluctuations in a static descriptor) can characterize shape dynamics.3 ... 

Where such latitude exists in designing shapes, as is found in RP materials, designs using large amounts of materials are not necessarily the best, nor do they give the best mechanical and physical performance per unit weight of material. For example, sometimes quite minute amounts of material judiciously placed in, as an example, an injection-molded crate can make an important difference in the behavior of crates when stacked.
