Abstract

This study examines the wave propagation, displacement and dynamic stress distribution within a solid Ti6Al4V rod mounted on a single side. Ti6Al4V alloy is used in some machine parts in automotive, aerospace/aeronautics, energy and biomedical applications. Due to its superior material properties and resistance to harsh environmental conditions, it is a future promising material. The influence of mounting material on displacement and stress behavior of Ti6Al4V rod is investigated by means of modelling one dimensional (1-D) wave propagation problem within the rod. Boundary conditions and initial condition is specified and governing partial differential equation (PDE) is solved computationally using an explicit scheme. Parametric analyses are performed to observe the effects of mounting material, mounting thickness and time on displacement and stress behavior. It is clearly observed that metallic mounting materials are efficient to delay stress and displacement waves without considerable reduction in their magnitude whereas rubber is very efficient in reduction of displacement and stress levels without considerable delay in displacement and stress waves.
