Abstract: It appears from macroand microexperiments that the essential response feature beyond the secondary stage of rock salt creep is characterized by the evolution of localized damage that results in the formation and propagation ...

Abstract: The creep evolution was followed by conducting magnetic measurements on ferromagnetic steel samples exposed to different creep strains at a constant temperature. 410 stainless steel (410 SS) rods ...

Abstract: An electromagnetic sensor was assessed as a possible instrument for nondestructive detection and monitoring of corrosion in structural carbon steels. In this study, the magnetic response of three ...

Abstract: A comparative study of two different mixed Eulerian-Lagrangian methods is presented. Representative numerical simulations of oscillatory flare-slamming flows are given. Computations based on these ...

Abstract: The constitutive model of interface behavior in quasi-brittle materials developed by the writers is incorporated with the finite-element method. The procedure and problems about the formulation of interface element are ...

Abstract: There is a compelling desire by power generating plants to continue running existing stations and components for several more years, despite many of them have surpassed their design service ...

Abstract: Partial blockages commonly exist in water pipelines due to various physical, chemical, and biological processes, including sediment, corrosion, and biofilm. The formed blockages can result in low flowing capacity, additional ...
