Abstract: This paper studies a transfer-function formulation for general one-dimensional, nonuniformly distributed systems, subject to arbitrary boundary conditions and external disturbances. In the development, ...

Abstract: In Part I of this paper, the effects of constant depth erosion on the mode I stress intensity factor (SIF) were determined for a crack emanating from the erosion deepest point in a pressurized, ...

Abstract: This paper presents a method for designing stationary cams with constant speed roller followers. A stationary cam is immovable, but it guides its follower to produce a desired motion with the ...

Abstract: Erosion geometry effects on the mode I stress intensity factor (SIF) for a crack emanating from the erosion’s deepest point in an autofrettaged, pressurized, thick-walled cylinder are investigated. ...

Abstract: A three-phase composite cylinder model is utilized to study the interaction between screw dislocations and nanoscale inclusions. The stress boundary condition at the interface between nanoscale ...
