Abstract: Abstract. Methods of modeling and extrapolating creep rupture data are critically examined, contrasting conventional models evaluated by statistical methods with models produced by the parametric, numerical isothermal datum ...

Abstract: Herrmann’s equations, the dynamic analogues of the von Karman equations, are solved for a circular plate on a linear elastic foundation by assuming a series solution of the separable form ...

Abstract: By extension of the theorem of Miles (1961), it is shown that inviscid wave-CISK models can only give amplifying forced linear perturbations of a stratified sheared flow which travel faster than the mean flow speed at all ...

Abstract: A simplified procedure is described for computation of equivalent potential temperature which remains valid in situations such as in the tropics where a term which is omitted in the derivation of the conventional formula ...

Abstract: Models of creep rupture data for CF8C-Plus Austenitic steel are presented and compared to recently published models of the same data. Metrics for the accuracy of these models are compared and the reliability of extrapolations ...

Abstract: An attempt is made to clarify some aspects of the problems encountered in evaluating the stability of embankments under conditions where a potential for soil liquefaction exists. It is suggested that at the present time, ...

Abstract: Drill string hardfacings are composites of steel and tungsten carbide applied by welding techniques. This paper discusses the important variables involved and gives experimental results for casing ...
