RISSeismic Damage at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station With Emphasis on Unit 1
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper analyzes and reviews various seismic damage at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station (F1) caused by the Great East Japan Earthquake (the Earthquake) on March 11 in 2011. Moreover, descriptions of various ...
Creep Deformation Property and Creep Life Evaluation of Super304H
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Creep deformation behavior, creep strength property, and microstructural evolution during creep exposure were investigated on Super 304H steel for boiler tube. In the high stress and lower temperature regime, creep rupture ...
Topology Optimization for Die Casting With Nonplanar Parting Surfaces and Side Dies
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Abstract. This article presents a topology optimization method for the simultaneous design of castable geometry, arbitrarily curved parting surfaces, and the inclusion of lateral side dies when necessary. An undercut-free ...
Design for Disassembly With High-Stiffness Heat-Reversible Locator-Snap Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Recent legislative and social pressures have driven manufacturers to consider effective part reuse and material recycling at the end of product life at the design stage. One of the key ...
Design Optimization of Vehicle Structures for Crashworthiness Using Equivalent Mechanism Approximations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new method for crashworthiness optimization of vehicle structures is presented, where an early design exploration is done by the optimization of an “equivalent” mechanism approximating a vehicle ...
Topology Optimization of Multicomponent Beam Structure via Decomposition-Based Assembly Synthesis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a method for synthesizing multicomponent beam structural assemblies with maximum structural performance and manufacturability. The problem is posed as a relaxation of ...
Strain Measurement of Pure Titanium Covered With Soft Tissue Using X-Ray Diffraction
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Measurement of the stress and strain applied to implants and bone tissue in the human body are important for fracture prediction and evaluations of implant adaptation. The strain of titanium ...
Discrete-Like Crack Simulation of Reinforced Concrete Incorporated with Analytical Solution of Cyclic Bond Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents solutions of second-order ordinary differential equations on bond problems to estimate crack widths of reinforced concrete (RC) members subjected to repeated cyclic loads. Up to now, bond behaviors under ...
Finite Element Method Analysis of Hybrid Structural Frames with Reinforced Concrete Columns and Steel Beams
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Two frame specimens with reinforced concrete columns and steel beams, which had different beam-column joint detailing, were analyzed using the nonlinear three-dimensional finite element method (FEM). One specimen had ...
Decomposition-Based Assembly Synthesis for Structural Stiffness
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a method that systematically decomposes product geometry into a set of components considering the structural stiffness of the end product. A structure is represented as a ...
