1、GM DAEWOO Auto Uni-axial stress defines the case in which the only force acting on the elastomeric component is the torque M acting along the axis of rotation of the elastomeric component. 3.2. Torque M; The torque M is the moment acting on the elastomeric component to produce a stress. Its magnitud

Initial torque Mv;The initial torque Mvis the torque which is applied to the elastomeric component in order to establish a initial data point for measurements. Its magnitude is normally 1 to 2% of torque max M, and its direction

The angle fmay be due to creep properties of the elastomer, or slipping between interference fits on the component. 3.12. Subscripts; Alphabeti
9、cal and numerical subscripts shall be used to identify measurement values and stress directions. 3.12.1. Alphabetical subscripts indicate the type of measurement value. e.g. Mv : the torque initially applied. 3.12.2. Numerical subscripts identify the direction of application of a stress, generally d
