Fatigue strength of vibration‐welded unreinforced nylon butt joints
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract The fatigue properties of vibration‐welded butt joints in two thermoplastics, nylon 6 and nylon 6,6, are examined in this work. Injection molded plaques were welded under high and low pressure conditions at 212 Hz and at an amplitude of 1.8 mm to a weld penetration of 1.5 mm. Dog‐bone coupons were machined from welded and unwelded plaques and then fatigue cycled in load control at a stress ratio of R = 0.1. The test frequency ranged from 1 to 10 Hz to avoid hysteretic heating. When the temperature rise in the weld region during testing was insignificant, no physical thermal damage was observed. It was found that the nonwelded specimens have longer fatigue lives than the welded ones, while the welded specimens appear to have similar fatigue behavior, except for nylon 6 welded in high pressure, which was slightly inferior. Vibration welding of these materials appears to be viable for structural applications requiring fatigue resistance. POLYM. ENG. SCI. 45:935–944, 2005. © 2005 Society of Plastics Engineers

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
