An Assessment of Mechanical Properties of A508 3 Steel Used in Chinese Nuclear Reactor Pressure Vessels
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: China has very ambitious goals of expanding its commercial nuclear power by 30 GW within the decade and wishes to phase out fossil fuels emissions by 40–45% by 2020 (from 2005 levels). With over 50 new nuclear power ...
Spatial–Temporal Analysis of Temperature Using Smoothing Spline ANOVA
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A new method, smoothing spline ANOVA, for combining station records of surface air temperature to get the estimates of regional averages as well as gridpoint values is proposed. This method is closely related to the optimal ...
Fluid Flow Mode of Nugget in Magnetically Assisted Resistance Spot Welding With Unequal Thickness Plates: Modeling and Experiments
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The nugget offset is the main challenge in the resistance spot welding (RSW) of unequal thickness plates. Magnetically assisted resistance spot welding (MA-RSW) is a potential new process to reduce the nugget offset ratio. ...
Effects of Postweld Heat Treatment on the Phase Transformation and Mechanical Behavior of NiTi Ultrasonic Spot Welded Joints With Al Interlayer
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The influence of postweld heat treatments (PWHTs) on the phase transformation characteristics, microstructural evolution, and mechanical properties of ultrasonic spot welded NiTi alloy with Al interlayer was investigated. ...
Numerical Simulation of Ultrasonic Spot Welding of Superelastic NiTi Alloys: Temperature Distribution and Deformation Behavior
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Ultrasonic spot welding (USW) has attracted increasing attention due to its high-throughput solid-state bonding mechanism, which shows great potential in the semiconductor and automotive industries for joining of metal ...
