Abstract: An application of the unified elastic-viscoplastic constitutive theory of Bodner [5] is presented. The material parameters in the theory, which includes directional hardening, are determined from ...

Abstract: The stress concentrations due to an elliptical cutout in a shallow cylindrical shell are determined by means of a system of singular integral equations, solved numerically. Three loading conditions ...

Abstract: The geometries of screw systems are well-defined in some special bases such as in the principal coordinate systems. However, it is not easy to construct the principal coordinate system of a ...

Abstract: A method of evaluating the transmission performance for spatial mechanisms is developed using the reciprocity of screws. The actual transmission performance of a spatial mechanism should be ...

Abstract: Three-dimensional flame structures and mixing behaviors of turbulent burning flows in a municipal solid-waste incinerator are investigated by finite-element simulation. The modified κ-ε turbulence model together with wall ...

Abstract: In this paper, the study on failure mechanism of moisture sensitivity reliability is reported. It focuses on the PCT conditions which are 121°C, 2atm, 100RH%, and 168 hr. The general ...

Abstract: A methodology for ocean outfall mixing zone analysis is presented. It is based on a combination of four deterministic models for predicting hydrodynamic mixing behaviors of the discharged effluent, a continuous time domain ...

Abstract: Initial dilution of submerged, single, round, buoyancy-dominated jets in a current is considered. Two simple semiempirical equations, one for centerline dilution and the other for minimum surface dilution, are presented. ...
