SUMMARY:ELASTOMERS IN TRANSPORT
DESCRIPTION:\n\nELASTOMERS IN TRANSPORT\n\n\n\n\n\n\n29 Jun 2018\n\n\n\n\n\
 n\n\n\n\n\nOrganised by the IOM3 Rubber in Engineering Group\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis Afternoon Technical Discussion Meeting 
 (ATDM) will explore the role of elastomers in transportation.\n\nThe event
  is due to start at 1:45pm.\n\nThe following speakers have been confirmed:
 \n\nRubber Anti-vibration Mounting Solutions on Off Highway Vehicles by St
 eve Sewell (Trelleborg AVS)\n\nThis talk considers anti-vibration mounting
  systems used on an off-highway vehicle (digger)\, and compares the predic
 ted against the measured performance.\n\nRubber Anti-vibration Mounting So
 lutions for Electric Vehicles by Rob Wardrop (DTR VMS)\n\nThis paper will 
 discuss some of the unique challenges posed for the modelling\, mount desi
 gn and environmental aspects for electric vehicle power-trains compared to
  the requirements of conventional internal combustion engine vehicles.\n\n
 Selection and Evaluation of Materials to Meet Requirements of Modern Rail 
 Fire Regulations by Joseph Hallett (Fenner Precision)\n\n\nTougher transp
 ort regulations\, especially relating to passenger safety\, coupled with i
 ncreasing demands from end users\, have led to more complex requirements f
 or elastomers in transport applications. In this paper the development of 
 a silicone rubber composite designed to meet these requirements will be de
 scribed.\n\nIntrinsically tuning the electromechanical properties of elast
 omeric dielectrics by Chaoying Wan (Warwick University)\n\nDielectric elas
 tomer devices are an emerging technology for actuation and energy harvesti
 ng and storage in future lightweight electrical vehicles. However\, the di
 electric properties of elastomers such as dielectric permittivity and brea
 kdown strength need to be improved before they are more widely adopted. To
  effect this poly(styrene-butadiene-styrene) elastomer has been modified b
 y grafting with polar groups via a facile thiol-ene click chemistry. The r
 esulting improvement to the dielectric and mechanical properties of the el
 astomers are discussed.\n\nDeveloping Low Carbon Mobility Technology by Si
 mon Buckingham (WMG Centre HVM Catapult)\n\nWMG is a department of the Un
 iversity of Warwick and one of the founding partners in the High Value Man
 ufacturing Catapult. This presentation will give an overview of our specia
 list research in areas including: lightweighting\, energy storage and mana
 gement\, advanced propulsion\, intelligent vehicles and digital manufactur
 ing.\n\nAt 4pm after the talks have finished there will be a 1 hour tour o
 f the WMG facilities relevant to the materials sectors.\n\n5pm - Event clo
 ses\n\nUse Eventbrite to register for this event.\n\nRegistration will b
 e free as a consequence of the generous sponsorship from ARTIS.\n\nA camp
 us map highlighting the International Digital Laboratory (IDL) can be dow
 nloaded here. Car parks are also available on campus.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
