Abstract: Liquid in a large piping system could become a resonance column under axial excitations. A 1000-m long closed-boundaries pipeline with pressure wave propagation velocity of 1000 m/s would have ...

Abstract: One of the current topics in the seismic design of piping systems is the overall reliability of them in earthquake events. Actual piping systems are generally supported by independent structures ...

Abstract: This report deals with the experimental study of seismic response behavior of piping systems in industrial facilities such as petrochemical, oil refinery, and nuclear plants. Special attention ...

Abstract: There are several melt processes which promote high Jc in bulk YBaCuO. A comparison of various melt processes was performed in this study. It was found that size control of the Y2 BaCuO5 ...
