    • Experimental study of idler roll slippage 

      Ries, J. P.; Farr, T. J. (Oklahoma State University, 1999-06)
      Idler roll slippage occurs when the roll surface velocity no longer equals the velocity of the web that transports the roll. In a web transport system, slippage will produce scratches in sensitive, coated web or cause ...
    • Experimental study of winding zone dynamics 

      Ries, J. P. (Oklahoma State University, 1997-06)
      The elastic nature of plastic films and the rotational inertia of rolls, spindles and drives cause a film handling line to exhibit the characteristics of a dynamic system. This dynamic response can be observed by measuring ...

      Fu, B.; Markum, R.; Reddy, A.; Vaijapurkar, S.; Good, J. K. (Oklahoma State University, 2011-06)
      All previous analyses of webs being steered through process equipment have required enforcement of assumed boundary conditions. An example is the normal entry boundary condition which has been employed in many web/roller analyses.
    • Explicit analysis of the lateral mechanics of webs transiting concave rollers 

      Vaijapurkar, S.; Good, J. K. (Oklahoma State University, 2011-06)
      All previous analyses of webs encountering spreading devices have required enforcement of assumed boundary conditions. An example is the normal entry boundary condition which has been employed in many web/roller analyses. ...
    • Explicit simulations of cambered web steering 

      Fu, Boshen; Good, James K. (Oklahoma State University, 2015-06)
      Cambered webs are common in the web handling industry. The mechanics analyses of stressed cambered webs have been reported by several publications [1]-[3]. The majority of the test data that exist demonstrate that cambered ...
    • Explicit simulations of web transport through process machines using periodic media analysis technique 

      Fu, Boshen; Michal, Neal (Oklahoma State University, 2015-06)
      In this paper, the periodic media analysis (PMA) technique in Abaqus/Explicit [1] has been applied to simulate multiple cases of web transport through process machines. The Abaqus models for web transport developed in the ...
    • Explicit simulations of wrinkle formation due to web non-uniformity 

      Fu, Boshen; Gilgenbach, Eric; Nackers, Katie; Brumm, Russ (Oklahoma State University, 2017-06)
      It is very common to laminate different materials together and then form, transport and process a web with non-uniform structure in the product manufacturing industry. The periodic media analysis (PMA) method in Abaqus/Explicit ...
    • Exploring the strain transport formula 

      Lynch, Ron (Oklahoma State University, 2019-06)
      The strain transport formula relates the velocity of a moving web to its strain. It is based on the conservation of mass which, when applied to webs, becomes the conservation of relaxed length. Simply stated it says, the ...
    • Factors that control run-ahead on printing presses 

      Hamel, J.; Menard, A.; McDonald, D. (Oklahoma State University, 1999-06)
      Run-ahead is a problem that occurs on printing presses where the paper rolls are braked by metallic bands applied to their periphery. Run-ahead occurs when the web in contact with the band decelerates faster than the roll, ...
    • Fast winder change with reduced influence on film tension 

      Schuster, Stefan; Oedl, Gunter (Oklahoma State University, 2015-06)
      For a 2 station turret winder it is shown that the film length increases at winder change (turret rotation, cutting arm movement und contact roller movement). It is shown how this change in length must create a change of ...
    • Film surface considerations for enhanced winding of thin films 

      Forrest, A. W., Jr.; Anderson, V. L. (Oklahoma State University, 1997-06)
      The primary defect for thin films ( < 25μm ) consists of sinusoidal ridges that run around the wound roll of film. Previous work has shown that these defects are buckles caused by compressive stresses in the transverse ...
    • Finite element analysis of winding nip mechanics 

      Kandadai, B. K.; Good, J. K. (Oklahoma State University, 2009-06)
      Wound-on-Tension (WOT) is the tension in the outermost layer of a winding roll that is created due to the incoming web tension and the tension induced by the nip roller called Nip-Induced-Tension (NIT). This paper presents ...
    • Finite element simulation of shear slitting of aluminum webs 

      Lu, H.; Wang, B.; Ma, J.; Viswanathan, H.; Li, M. (Oklahoma State University, 2003-06)
      A three-dimensional finite element (FE) procedure has been developed to simulate shear slitting using ABAQUS/Explicit, and the process of shear slitting has been investigated for aluminum webs obeying elastic-plastic ...
    • Flutter mechanism of sheet 

      Watanabe, Y.; Suzuki, S.; Sueoka, Y.; Kunimaru, H. (Oklahoma State University, 1991-05)
      Basic study has been conducted on sheet flutter which becomes an obstacle to the operation of printing machines and paper making machines in higher speed. Following three topics are presented in this paper.
