Abstract: We have shown through experiment a complicated dynamic behavior of a cantilever (90/30/–30/–30/30/90)s graphite-epoxy plate. The plate was base excited using a 2000-lb table shaker near its seventh ...

Abstract: Welded high-temperature power plant components can experience a greater risk of failure by creep during service, when compared to similar as-wrought components. The heat-affected zone (HAZ) of ...

Abstract: CrMoV steels are used in high temperature and high stress sections of power plant members; their good creep resistance is impaired by welding done during fabrication of assemblies and weld ...

Abstract: This article shows that the added mass due to fluid-structure interaction significantly affects the vibrational dynamics of cilia-based (vibrating cantilever-type) devices for handling microscale ...
