RISInterlaminar Shear Strength Retention of GFRP Bars Exposed to Alkaline and Acidic Conditioning and Capacity Prediction Using Artificial Neural Networks
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a study on the interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) retention of three types of glass fiber–reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars with different surface textures subjected to four types of conditioning environments ...
Experimental Investigation of Tube-to-Tubesheet Welding in Stainless Steel Heat Exchangers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Abstract. Shell and tube heat exchangers are widely used in various industries for effective heat transfer between fluids. However, these exchangers often encounter challenges such as corrosion and wear, which can greatly ...
Effect of Environmental Loads on Concrete Shrinkage and Strain in GFRP Bars in Slabs on Ground: Field Monitoring and Analysis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Glass fiber–reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars have been increasingly used in civil engineering over recent decades, with expected service lives exceeding 100 years, owing to their advantages such as a high strength-to-weight ...
Combined Gas Tungsten Arc Welding and Shielded Metal Arc Welding Processes for Joining Tube to Tubesheet in Shell and Tube Heat Exchangers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Flawless tube and tubesheet joints are necessary for shell and tube heat exchanger with high leakproof ability and durability. The consequence of mixing of transfer fluids due to the defective welded or expanded tube-to-tubesheet ...
Experimental Analysis of Multipass GTAW Techniques for Tube-to-Tubesheet Welding in Heat Exchangers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Abstract. The efficiency, quality, and reliability of shell and tube heat exchangers are significantly influenced by the design and execution of tube-to-tubesheet (TTS) welding. The key factor includes the selection of ...
