Reverse Engineering is the process of duplicating an existing component, subassembly, or product, without the aid of drawings, documentation, or computer model. In other words, it is the process of ...

• The lateral compliance of a gasket (proportional to its thickness and, inversely proportional to the area and shear modulus) can be helpful in preventing fretting caused by vibration. Alternatively, ...

Elasticity is a property possessed by many solid materials, but the class of materials known as rubbers or elastomers possess a different property called high elasticity. This differs from ...

Rubber composites represent an advanced class of engineering materials in which a rubber matrix is blended with various reinforcing fillers, such as silica and nanofillers, to enhance mechanical ...

Researchers have increased the fatigue threshold of particle-reinforced rubber, developing a new, multiscale approach that allows the material to bear high loads and resist crack growth over repeated ...
