ARMAMENT AND MILITARY EQUIPMENT POLYMER COMPOSITE AGEING
Journal Title: Scientific Journal of the Military University of Land Forces - Year 2011, Vol 159, Issue 1
Abstract
In the process of planning military operations, it is necessary to know technical and combat readiness of vehicles. Knowledge of the pass mode potential of individual vehicles is very important while organizing transport operations. So far, in a situation where the elements determining the suitability of a vehicle were made of metal, such potential has been estimated on the basis of the difference between the service life of a vehicle and meter readings. The following study demonstrates the inappropriateness of such an approach in relation to elements made of polymers. A simplified way of assessing loss of the pass mode potential (based on measurements of the labor symptoms) has been presented based on an example of a rubber and metal joint of a caterpillar. It was found that during 8 years the storage of these elements, their utility potential loss is up to 40% of the initial potential.
