Abstract: The creep-rupture behavior of six candidate Stirling engine iron-base superalloys was determined in air. The alloys included four wrought alloys (A-286, Alloy 800H, N-155, and 19-9DL) and two ...

Abstract: The stability of motion of a nonlinear neo-Hookean rubber spring pendulum under a special type of support oscillation is studied. The small swing motion is described by a Mathieu-Hill equation, ...

Abstract: A criterion for determining the stability of solutions of Hill’s equation containing even periodic potential is developed based on Hill’s method of solution. In the special case of the Mathieu ...

Abstract: This paper presents a detailed study on an E-plan-shaped (asymmetry about both plan axes) building under wind excitation (wind angles varied from 0° to 330° at an interval of 30°). This study is conducted by the wind-tunnel ...

Abstract: The present study deals with the spin-up and spin-down of viscous incompressible fluid confined in a cylindrical enclosure. The spin-up (or spin-down) is developed by increasing (or decreasing) ...

Abstract: In this paper, we have studied the electrokinetics and mixing driven by an imposed pressure gradient and electric field in a charged modulated microchannel. By performing detailed numerical simulations based on the coupled ...

Abstract: In this paper, we have analyzed an enhanced electroosmotic flow (EOF) by geometric modulation of the surface of a charged nanochannel. Otherwise, flat walls of the channel are modulated by embedding rectangular grooves ...

Abstract: Cutting tools of sufficient strength against failure by brittle fracture or loss of “form stability” through rise of interface temperatures, still continue to fail by a process of “wear,” which ...
