Empirical equations to estimate non-linear collapse of medium-length cylindrical shells with circular cutouts
(Elsevier Sci LTD, 2017)
This paper examines the load bearing capacity of medium-length steel cylindrical shells with a circular cutout under the action of axial compression. Numerical simulations were performed for a radius-to-thickness ratio ...
A computational study of cyclic thermal response of shape memory alloy thin-film island structures
(Springer Wien, 2017)
With a view toward contributing to the state of the art in the research on shape memory alloy memory storage devices, the thermal response of a shape memory alloy (SMA) thin film during a complete cycle of heating and ...
Effect of working fluid on the performance of the duplex Stirling refrigerator
(Elsevier Sci LTD, 2018)
Duplex Stirling refrigerator is one of the best alternative systems for providing green and clean energy solutions. It consists of Stirling refrigerator and Stirling heat engine in a back to back configuration. The main ...
Overall performance of the duplex Stirling refrigerator
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science LTD, 2017)
The duplex Stirling refrigerator is an integrated refrigerator consists of Stirling cycle engine and Stirling cycle refrigerator used for cooling. The equality of the work generation of the heat engine to the work consumption ...
The effect of carbide particle additives on rheology of shear thickening fluids
(Korean Soc Rheology, 2016)
In this paper, shear thickening fluids (STFs) including silicon carbide particles are presented. We fabricated a kind of STF based on nanosize fumed silica suspended in a liquid medium, polyethylene glycol, at a constant ...
The rheology of shear thickening fluids with various ceramic particle additives
(Elsevier Sci LTD, 2016)
In this paper, shear thickening fluids (STFs) and three different types of additive particles such as silicon carbide, aluminum oxide and boron carbide are presented. STFs were fabricated based on nanosize fumed silica ...
Effect of heat treatment on the bending behavior of aluminum alloy tubes
(Korean Soc Mechanical Engineers, 2017)
Quasistatic experiments and numerical simulations were performed to investigate the three-point bending behavior of different temper AA6082 tubes in this study. The effect of heat treatment on the samples was investigated ...
Three autoregressive-neural network hybrid models for energy efficiency estimation of induction motors
(Emerald Group Publishing LTD, 2019)
Purpose - Improvements on the energy efficiency of the induction motors bear on not only these motors but also on the whole industry as a result of preference of these types of motors. In recent projects, energy efficiency ...
Reliability Evaluation of Dynamic Characteristics of Clean Sand Soils Based on Soft Computing Methods
(Springer Heidelberg, 2016)
This study was conducted to estimate the dynamic characteristics of clean sand under low strains using fuzzy expert systems and neural network approximations. A series of resonant column tests were conducted on clean sand ...
Dynamic Properties of Clean Sand Modified with Granulated Rubber
(Hindawi LTD, 2018)
Waste automobile tires are used as additives or replacements instead of traditional materials in civil engineering works. In geotechnical engineering, tires are shredded to certain sizes and mixed with soil, especially ...
