Abstract: There is an accelerating trend toward application of modern static control and drive technology to cranes and heavy material handling systems, and the backbone of these systems are the thrysitor ...

Abstract: A theoretical and numerical investigation is made of the behavior of a circular bar of elastic-viscoplastic material subjected to either proportional or nonproportional straining in tension and ...

Abstract: In the present investigation, thin tubular specimens of annealed mild steel (En8) were tested under combined straining, using a newly developed tension-torsion, closed-loop, servo-controlled, ...

Abstract: The equation of motion for a curved dislocation moving at high velocities in a slip plane is solved for a dislocation half-mill. It is found that the angular velocity of a dislocation half-mill ...

Abstract: The difficulties involved in the accurate measurement of the flow stress of materials at high rates of deformation are reviewed, and methods of overcoming these difficulties are discussed. It ...
