Abstract: Due to the oscillatory singular stress field around a crack tip, interface fracture has some peculiar features. This paper is focused on two of them. One can be reflected by a proposed paradox that geometrically similar ...

Abstract: In this study, a computational fluid dynamics model based on the volume of fluid (VOF) method is developed to simulate the dynamic sloshing response to external excitations. The modal analysis model based on the linear ...

Abstract: Failure risk assessment of pressure vessels and piping systems is an important part of their integrity management. Obviously, there are many shortcomings in risk analysis using only traditional procedures, which are mostly ...
