Click For Summary
The frictional coefficient for glass in contact with rubber varies based on the type of glass, type of rubber, and environmental conditions like humidity. There is no single definitive value, as different sources provide conflicting information. For accurate finite element analysis in a university assignment, it's crucial to consider these variables. Users are encouraged to conduct further research or consult academic resources for more reliable data. Timely assistance is needed due to the impending assignment deadline.

Hi All!

I have an assignment from University that involves finite element analysis of a glass lifting body using Catia. Problem is in order to set the value for loading correctly, I need the frictional coefficient for glass when in contact with rubber.

I tried looking online and couldn't get anywhere with it. Different sites give different values, and I'm not confident about either of them.
I was hoping to find some help here. Please let me know soon if possible as the assignment is due in 2 days.

Thanks a lot everyone!

Rishi

Depends on the glass, depends on the rubber, depends on humidity.
 

Thread 'Need to anneal 5052 aluminum'

I need to anneal 5052 aluminum for a home project. Google has given me mixed results on how to do this. Short version is that I'm doing some heavy forming on a piece of 5052-H32 and I'm running into issues with it work hardening. I've tried the Sharpie trick with a propane torch. But I'm not sure this is doing anything. I'm also seeing conflicting opinions whether to quench or air cool. So I'm looking for some expert opinions. (Oven heating is not an option due to size.) Thanks. edit: The...
