  • The Close-Packed Triple Helix As a Possible New Structural Motif for Collagen
    The close-packed triple helix as a possible new structural motif for collagen Jakob Bohr∗ and Kasper Olseny Department of Physics, Technical University of Denmark Building 307 Fysikvej, DK-2800 Lyngby, Denmark Abstract The one-dimensional problem of selecting the triple helix with the highest volume fraction is solved and hence the condition for a helix to be close-packed is obtained. The close-packed triple helix is ◦ shown to have a pitch angle of vCP = 43:3 . Contrary to the conventional notion, we suggest that close packing form the underlying principle behind the structure of collagen, and the implications of this suggestion are considered. Further, it is shown that the unique zero-twist structure with no strain- twist coupling is practically identical to the close-packed triple helix. Some of the difficulties for the current understanding of the structure of collagen are reviewed: The ambiguity in assigning crystal structures for collagen-like peptides, and the failure to satisfactorily calculate circular dichroism spectra. Further, the proposed new geometrical structure for collagen is better packed than both the 10=3 and the 7=2 structure. A feature of the suggested collagen structure is the existence of a central channel with negatively charged walls. We find support for this structural feature in some of the early x-ray diffraction data of collagen. The central channel of the structure suggests the possibility of a one-dimensional proton lattice. This geometry can explain the observed magic angle effect seen in NMR studies of collagen. The central channel also offers the possibility of ion transport and may cast new light on various biological and physical phenomena, including biomineralization.

  • An Experimental Investigation of Helical Gear Efficiency
    AN EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF HELICAL GEAR EFFICIENCY A Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree of Master of Science in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Aarthy Vaidyanathan, B. Tech. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2009 Masters Examination Committee: Dr. Ahmet Kahraman Approved by Dr. Donald R Houser Advisor Graduate Program in Mechanical Engineering ABSTRACT In this study, a test methodology for measuring load-dependent (mechanical) and load- independent power losses of helical gear pairs is developed. A high-speed four-square type test machine is adapted for this purpose. Several sets of helical gears having varying module, pressure angle and helix angle are procured, and their power losses under jet- lubricated conditions are measured at various speed and torque levels. The experimental results are compared to a helical gear mechanical power loss model from a companion study to assess the accuracy of the power loss predictions. The validated model is then used to perform parameter sensitivity studies to quantify the impact of various key gear design parameters on mechanical power losses and to demonstrate the trade off that must take place to arrive at a gear design that is balanced in all essential aspects including noise, durability (bending and contact) and power loss. ii Dedicated to all those before me who had far fewer opportunities, and yet accomplished so much more. iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank my advisor, Dr. Ahmet Kahraman, who has been instrumental in fostering interest and enthusiasm in all my research endeavors. His encouragement throughout the course of my studies was invaluable, and I look to him for guidance in all my future undertakings.

APPROVED BY THE MEMBERS OF THE THESIS COMMITTEE: \...:.ll<;i.l. / A random search method for optimum design of a pair of helical gears has been developed. The sequence of optimization consists of two principal components. The first is the selection phase, where the output is the starting solution for the design variables - module, facewidth, helix angle and number of teeth on the pinion. The input for the selection phase includes the application environment, approximate center distance, minimum helix angle, desired values of gear ratio, pinion speed and the power to be transmitted. The limits on each of the design variables and the constraints are imposed interactively during the first phase. A standard tooth form is 2 assumed for the design.

    Tool Temperature in Titanium Drilling The spatial and temporal distribution of tool temperature in drilling of commercially pure Rui Li titanium is studied using the inverse heat transfer method.

Temperatures measured by ther- Mechanical Engineering, mocouples embedded on the drill flank face are used as the input for the inverse heat University of Michigan, transfer analysis to calculate the heat partition factor between the drill and chip. The Ann Arbor, MI 48109-2125 temperature distribution of the drill is solved by the finite element method and validated by experimental measurements with good agreement. For titanium drilling, the drill temperature is high. At 24.4 m/min and 73.2 m/min drill peripheral cutting speed, the peak temperature of the drill reaches 480°C and 1060°C, respectively, after 12.7 mm depth of drilling with 0.025 mm feed per cutting tooth.
