Abstract: Various mechanical surface treatment technologies have been invented and developed to induce a protective layer of compressive residual stress at the surface of gas turbine engine components where ...

Abstract: Scattering of axisymmetric guided waves by cracks and weldments of anisotropic bonding material in welded steel pipes is investigated in this paper by a hybrid method employing finite element ...

Abstract: The construction of a steady-state Green’s function for a laminated anisotropic circular cylinder is presented herein. The cylinder’s profile through its depth consists of any number of perfectly ...

Abstract: A combination of finite element formulation and wave function expansion is used to investigate the scattering of axisymmetric guided waves by an interphase region with bonding material between two laminated cylinders. The ...

Abstract: A semi-analytical finite element (SAFE) formulation is proposed to study the wave propagation characteristics of thin-walled members with an infinite length in the longitudinal (axial) direction. ...
