Abstract: Heat transfer from and to fluidized beds is involved in many applications including chemical processes, power generation, solar collectors, etc. It is generally desired to operate in the range in which the heat transfer ...

Abstract: Evaporators and boilers with flow across horizontal tube bundles are widely used in industries including refrigeration and chemical processing. As yet there is a lack of a well-verified correlation for predicting local or ...

Abstract: An experimental study is conducted to investigate the effects of steel fiber reinforcement on the cyclic behavior of dowel bars in the conditions of beam‐column interfaces. The steel fibers used in this investigation were ...

Abstract: Stresses and displacements in circular cylindrical shells having square and rectangular lugs have been studied in this paper. The analysis presented here is based on finite element technique ...

Abstract: Fiber-reinforced composites are being widely used in the aircraft and aerospace industry, as well as in other field such as automobile, electronics, etc. In this work, a method based on the ...

Abstract: The current understanding of the mechanics of bond resistance at the interface between concrete and plain and deformed steel bars is reviewed briefly along with the influence of corrosion on the phenomenon. Some of the ...

Abstract: Finite element method has been used in the present work to study the stress distribution in an elbow with end constraints subjected to in-plane moment and pressure. Elbows of short radius ...

Abstract: A general correlation is presented for heat transfer during flow of gas–liquid mixtures flowing in vertical channels prior to dry out. It has been verified with a wide range of data that include upward and downward flow ...
