Failure analysis of the combat jet aircraft rudder shaft
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2011)
This paper analyzes failure causes of the combat jet aircraft rudder shaft (RS) which occurred during the flight mission. A finite element method (FEM), utilized to determine the stress state of the RS subjected to hinge ...
Failure analysis of the end eye connection of the bucket wheel excavator portal tie-rod support
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2009)
This paper describes the failure analysis results of the bucket wheel excavator (BWE) portal tie-rod support. The results of finite elements analysis (FEA) point out the occurrence of pronounced stress concentration, whereby ...
Bucket chain excavator: Failure analysis and redesign of the counterweight boom supporting truss columns
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2013)
The supporting truss of the counterweight boom is a vital part of the bucket chain excavator's (BCE) superstructure. The occurrence and propagation of cracks in the supporting truss columns' heads may lead to BCE collapse. ...
Analysis of welded tensile plates with a surface notch in the weld metal and heat affected zone
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2010)
The behavior of the plates with a surface notch under tensile external loading is experimentally and numerically analyzed. The specimens were made of micro-alloyed steel NIO-MOL 490 K. welded by MAC (CO2) welding method. ...
Condition and behaviour diagnostics of drive groups on belt conveyors
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2012)
Belt conveyors are complex systems with drive groups as functionally very important components. Their proper and reliable operational life is directly related to durability of the load-bearing steel structures. Drive units ...
Failure resistance of drilling rig casing pipes with an axial crack
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2015)
Working conditions of casing pipes in drilling rigs can significantly influence the initiation and development of damage in the material, and therefore also the safe service of the entire system. In this work, an integrity ...
Explicit parametric method for optimal spur gear tooth profile definition
(Trans Tech Publications Ltd, 2013)
The gear tooth profile has an immense effect on the main operating parameters of gear pairs (load capacity, working life, efficiency, vibrations, etc). In current engineering research and practice, there is a strong need ...
The failure analysis of the star-separator of an aircraft cannon
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
This paper analyzes the causes of fracture of the double pipe aerial cannon stellate starseparator, which occurred during the fighting plane mission. The linear finite element method (FEM) is used to determine the stresses ...
Failure investigation and reparation of a crack on the boom of the bucket wheel excavator ERS 1250 Gacko
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2018)
Bucket wheel excavator ERs 1250 has been in operation for over 30 years in the Grae'anica-Gacko mining basin. It is operating in very hard working conditions due to exploiting very solid material, which has adverse effects ...
Selective laser sintered Pipe Ring Notched Tension specimens for examination of fracture properties of pipeline materials
(Engineering Fracture Mechanics, 2023)
In order to develop a non-standard method for determining the resistance to fracture and damage of pipeline materials, a new geometry of ring-shaped specimens with sharp notches or cracks has been defined. The need to ...
