Q1-Q3 MEEG 455 and MEEG 655
Q4- MEEG 655 only
Q1. You have been asked to select a composite manufacturing process due to your
familiarity with the processes as a result of the course you took at the University of
Delaware. Your company is considering the option to make the following 10 components
and would like you to recommend which process and what feed stock should be
considered with a single sentence explanation as to why you selected that process and
feedstock. Use the Fuzzy Factors in Process Selection that we discussed in class to justify
your explanation.
Q2. Composite materials are replacing traditional materials in many applications. List at
least 5 examples of polymer composite material being used in different applications since
2000. Also state the reasons for the replacement. Can you think of a component or an
application that is currently not being made of composite materials but will benefit
greatly if it was?
Q3. Consider unidirectional stretching of a cylinder as shown in the figure
below. At any time, t, assume that R(t) is independent of z.
(a) Using only the conservation of mass show that the velocity field is given by
Uz Ur
uz = L(t) and ur = - 2L(t)
c) Neglecting surface tension and inertia, calculate the force F required to pull the cylinder
for a Newtonian fluid.
