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 ...
Estimation of the number of trays for natural gas triethylene glycol dehydration column
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2011)
The paper deals with the tray-to-tray method for determining the required number of trays in columns with intensive entrainment of liquid when the operating line of the "dry working regime" is not straight and with a small ...
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. ...
Load-bearing steel structure diagnostics on bucket wheel excavator, for the purpose of failure prevention
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2011)
The appearance of cracks on load-bearing steel structure of compact, hydraulic bucket wheel excavator was a perennial problem. Unfavourable stress concentration, inadequate geometry and structure of materials, inadequate ...
Compressive strains and displacement in a partially dentate lower jaw rehabilitated with two different treatment modalities
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2012)
Background: Understanding of the biomechanical consequences of the stresses generated to the supporting bone during occlusal loading is significant for improving the design and clinical planning process in partial edentulism ...
Experimental studies on active vibration control of a smart composite beam using a PID controller
(IOP Publishing Ltd, Bristol, 2013)
This paper presents experimental verification of the active vibration control of a smart cantilever composite beam using a PID controller. In order to prevent negative occurrences in the derivative and integral terms in a ...
Active boundary layer control in linear cascades using CFD and artificial neural networks
(Elsevier France-Editions Scientifiques Medicales Elsevier, Issy-Les-Moulineaux, 2014)
Flow field in linear cascades under high subsonic/transonic conditions has been investigated numerically. Active boundary layer control was employed in the form of sources (jets) distributed across the upper surface of the ...
Creep crack growth properties of P91 and P22 welded joints
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2017)
The ferritic P22 and bainitic-martenstic P91 steel welded joints operating at elevated temperatures are highly vulnerable to premature failure, because microstructure gradients can lead to cracking in the heat-affected ...
Ductile fracture of pipe-ring notched bend specimens - Micromechanical analysis
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
Integrity of pipes is typically assessed by testing fracture mechanics specimens, such as compact tensile (CT) or single-edge notched bending (SENB). However, for some pipe dimensions it is not easy or possible to fabricate ...
