The Influence of the Shape of a Polymer Wall on Selected Mechanical Properties

Abstract

This paper presents results of personal research concerning designing a new construction in the form of axially symmetric ducts, characterized by a complex construction of the carrying wall. These ducts were designed so that in the carrying wall they have a specified number of micro canals, in which additional cables can be placed. This paper presents research results of selected mechanical properties of the products, the values of force required to achieve a deformation of 3%, useful to calculating the peripheral stiffness of the construction. The research results allowed to determine the range of change of thinning possibility of the wall of the product in relation to the volume of the material and the mathematical function depicting the outline of the duct in cross-section.
