Abstract
Ultrasonic welding is the most common type of polymer joining used in industry today. It is critical that the energy transfer and heating mechanisms be well understood to enable the use of this process for more challenging applications. This work seeks to provide new tools to predict the heating rate in a molded polymer part excited by ultrasonic energy. Current assumptions for the mechanics of energy transfer are explored, and new equations for attenuation and strain-based heating are proposed.
