Abstract: This study presents a solar desiccant system using an adsorbent in an “integrated desiccant/solar collector” that uses direct solar energy as a heat source for efficient regeneration of the ...

Abstract: This research deals with the development of a new process for tube ironing. The process of tube ironing is done without sliding friction which is the main cause for galling and breakage in ...

Abstract: The thermal boundary condition around the workpiece surface is one of important factors to analyze the thermal deformation of a workpiece, which is in close relation to the machining, accuracy ...

Abstract: This paper reports on the results of experimental studies on the durability of intumescent coating for steel frames. Intumescent coatings are fireproof materials that provide the thermal insulation of steel structures. ...

Abstract: This paper describes the metallurgical approaches for producing 415MPa and 460MPa yield strength offshore structural steel plates and the mechanical properties of the steel plates and their welded ...
