Abstract: There is an accelerating trend toward application of modern static control and drive technology to cranes and heavy material handling systems, and the backbone of these systems are the thrysitor ...

Abstract: A numerical integration of creep relaxation curves from strain-controlled fatigue tests with hold times introduced at peak strain is performed to sum creep damage by the linear life fraction ...

Abstract: The original development by Schiller for flow in the entrance of a tube is corrected to account for viscous dissipation within the boundary layer. The result is the best over-all description ...

Abstract: A theoretical and numerical investigation is made of the behavior of a circular bar of elastic-viscoplastic material subjected to either proportional or nonproportional straining in tension and ...

Abstract: In the present investigation, thin tubular specimens of annealed mild steel (En8) were tested under combined straining, using a newly developed tension-torsion, closed-loop, servo-controlled, ...

Abstract: The equation of motion for a curved dislocation moving at high velocities in a slip plane is solved for a dislocation half-mill. It is found that the angular velocity of a dislocation half-mill ...

Abstract: The difficulties involved in the accurate measurement of the flow stress of materials at high rates of deformation are reviewed, and methods of overcoming these difficulties are discussed. It ...

Abstract: From a hydrologic perspective, one limitation of pervious concrete pavement is the risk of clogging, defined as a reduction in hydraulic conductivity that reduces infiltration into the pavement or exfiltration into the ...
