Abstract: Steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) is widely applied in the construction industry. Numerical elastoplastic analysis of the macroscopic behavior is complex. This typically involves a piecewise linear failure curve ...

Abstract: From the perspective of an overall entity we analyzed the performance obtainable from the adoption of an intercooled-cycle gas turbine under different typical cycle parameters of a gas turbine. ...

Abstract: In many existing elastoplastic plane-strain solutions for a circular tunnel excavated in a homogeneous, isotropic rock mass under a hydrostatic stress field, the longitudinal axial stress (or the out-of-plane stress) σ

Abstract: An electromagnetically induced signal measurement method is presented to measure solid-liquid two-phase flows in the present study. The method is validated by comparing visualization results for ...

Abstract: The vibrations and stability are investigated for an axially moving rectangular antisymmetric cross-ply composite plate supported on simple supports. The partial differential equations governing the ...

Abstract: n this paper, the authors propose two improved mixture Weibull distribution models by adding one or two location parameters to the existing two-component mixture two-parameter Weibull distribution [MWbl(2, 2)] model. One ...

Abstract: Piles in a pile raft are sometimes considered as settlement reducers, not load-carrying members. In design, one often tries to minimize the number of piles. This often results in a high axial stress in the piles that may ...

Abstract: An experimental study is carried out to investigate the effects of microglass fiber suspensions in the non-Newtonian fluids in a gap between an inner rotating sphere and an outer whole stationary ...
