Today, while transportation is constantly moving forward, costs are increasing. The aim is to obtain light structures that are suitable in terms of weight, sufficient in strength, and to save materials and energy. Axles are not only used in transport vehicles, but also in buses, automobiles and forklifts. Axles must be of a reliable structure due to their place of use. The external effects that the axles are generally exposed to are the applied loads. In this study, the mechanical damage analysis of the axle shaft and the characteristic changes in steel materials as a result of static loading were investigated numerically. In order to observe the mechanical behavior of the axle shaft under various loading conditions, mechanical tests should be supported by numerical analysis. Because the physical causes of damage development can be understood through numerical analysis. The aim of our study is to reach the most suitable values in the design of the variables with the optimization technique of the axle shaft made of AISI 1035 steel. Optimum values were obtained by performing numerical analyzes of the axle shaft designed with Solidworks program. As a result of the analysis, it was observed that deformation occurred at the ends of the axle.

Supplemental material, sj-docx-1-pie-10.1177_09544089221136808 for The effect of different fillers, loads, and sliding distance on adhesive wear in woven e-glass fabric composites by Edip Çetkin, Mehmet Emin Demir and Raşit Koray Ergün in Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part E: Journal of Process Mechanical Engineering

Adhesives are alternative joining techniques which can be used instead of different manufacturing methods such as bolt, rivet, weld, and solder. Especially the use of adhesives in aviation, space, automotive, building and marine industrials, for which the security of the joints needed, increases gradually. By using adhesively bonded joints, adherents which had different properties and thickness, acquiring regular stress distribution, can be joined more economically and slightly. The aim of the study is to repair the parts having different notch geometries with adhesive method. For this purpose, Aluminum alloy plates have the thickness of 2mm, the width of 25mm, 30mm and 35mm, the height of 112,5mm, and notch geometries with the height of 2mm, 4mm, 6mm and the width of 8mm on these plates were used, and then these notched samples were fixed with aluminium with the dimensions of 40-25mm,40-30mm,40-35mm. Finally, mechanical behaviour of these samples were examined with experimantal . As a result, it has been observed that failure loads of aluminum alloy plates repaired with patches are higher than unpatched aluminum alloy plates, Yapıştırma kaynak, lehim, perçin ve cıvata gibi farklı birleştirme yöntemlerine alternatif olarak kullanılan bir imalat yöntemidir. Özellikle bağlantı güvenirliliğinin önemli olduğu havacılık, uzay, otomotiv, inşaat ve deniz endüstrilerinde yapıştırıcıların kullanımı giderek artmaktadır. Yapıştırma yöntemi ile farklı özellik ve kalınlıklardaki malzemelerin bağlantılarında düzgün bir gerilme dağılımı sağlanarak, daha ekonomik ve daha hafif bir şekilde birleştirilebilir. Bu çalışmada, yapıştırma yöntemi ile farklı çentik geometrisine sahip parçaların tamirinin yapılması amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaçla, 2mm kalınlık, 25mm, 30mm, 35mm genişlik ve 112.5mm uzunluğa sahip alüminyum levhaların çentik ağız derinliği a=2mm, 4mm, 6mm ve çentik ağız yüksekliği b= 8mm olarak çentikler açılmış, daha sonra bu çentikli numuneler ebatları 40mm-25mm, 40mm-30mm, 40mm-35mm olan alüminyum yamalarla tamir edilmiştir. Elde edilen levhaların mekanik davranışları deneysel olarak incelenmiştir. Yama ile tamir edilmiş malzemelerin hasar yüklerinin yamasız malzemelerden daha fazla olduğu tespit edilmiştir
