Minutes
Progress report
- Weekly, sent before midnight Thursday
- Includes: agenda, things that are accomplished, questions and or attachments
- Post progress report including minutes on UBC wiki for record purpose
Weekly Meeting
- 1 secretary
- 1 discussion leader (roles can be switched around)
Project
- Adhesion
- avoids corrosion as long it is completely sealed
- does not deteriorate
- good use for repairs
- Gluing aluminum 5000 (cold rolled) and aluminum 6000 (precipitation hardening) together (inner and outer)
- Curing time can be put it the oven or use heat lamp to be reduced
- Heat treatment
- Can weaken the 5000 (recrystallization) and weaken/strengthen 6000 Aluminum (precipitation hardening)
- Options: underage 6000….
- QUESTION:
- Feasibility of doing adhesive bonding, paint baking, heat treatment for 6000 altogether.
- Compute:
- Amount of curing- kinetics, heat release
- Strength of 5000 and 6000
- Heat transfer model (furnace to part, phase transformation)
Goal
- Have the models running and validated by the midterm
- After the midterm:
- Put models together
- Optimization
Next Week
Each person pick a topic to be an expert for later
- Adhesive bonding (talk to Goran, cure kinetic model) - Shauna
- Heat transfer model (equation, parameters- variable, fixed, heat transfer coefficient in oven)- Kyle
- Mechanical property model
- Precipitation hardening in 6000 series- Andy
- Recrystallization (recovery) in 5000 series- Mandy
Literature Review
Find an extra on top of Chad’s- try not to use websites; use books and journals.
- Impetus driving force of Aluminum:- Mandy
- Quantitatively compare Al to steel
- Types of aluminum alloys that are specifically used in cars: - Kyle
- 6000 vs 5000- Chemistry(composition), strengthening(how), location in cars
- Basic review of joining aluminum:- Shauna
- Options, advantages and disadvantages
- Paint bake cycle:- Andy
- How is it performed?
Other Tasks
- Outline for progress up to the midterm
- Gantt chart week by week before the midterm
- Meeting next week via Skype on Friday at 12:30 PM
