About this course

Failures of rubber parts impact all of the industrial world. In this online course we will study the analysis of failure as a succession of steps allowing us to trace back to the reason and modality of failure of an elastomer part.

Introduction

  • Welcome everyone: introduction
  • What do you expect of this SPOC ?

Week 1 : Starting an analysis - Morphological analysis

  • Leading a diagnostic
  • Methods in use to identify the failure reason
  • Destructive and non-destructive control methods

Week 2 : physicochemical analyses

  • Which analyses to choose depending on an expertise case?
  • Possible failures depending on rubber formulation

Week 3 : Mechanical controls

  • Mechanical control process on failed parts
  • Modelling of elastomers parts and numerical simulation

Week 4 : Prediction methods for lifespan and anticipation of failure

  • Theoretical tools for failure anticipation: prediction methods for lifespan (fatigue, WLF, Arrhenius etc.)
  • Ageing acceleration principal
  • Theoretical tools for failures anticipation: AMDEC
  • Presenting the method and its application in the expertise

Conclusion: outcomes of our investigation
