Nowadays, textile and woven fabric composites are taken into consideration forapplications in high mechanical properties and every in-plane direction. However, developments inmodelling and characterisation of the fabric ...

This paper presents the results of the assembly process of a gasketed bolted flanged pipe joint for two different bolt tightening strategies, i.e. ASME and Industrial using torque control of preload method.  The final ...

In this study, He's Variational Approach (VA) is used to solve the non-naturalvibrations and oscillations. The method works very well for the whole range of initial amplitudesand does not demand small perturbation. It is ...

Nuclear cross sections that determine core multiplication strongly depend on core temperature (e.g., the Doppler, moderator density effects etc). On the other hand, since this heat is generated by the neutron flux in the ...

In the present work, the simultaneous effects of fuel injection rate and injection of air jet into the combustion chamber on exhaust emissions, combustion process and performance parameters in a direct injection diesel ...

The vehicle braking system is considered to be one of the most fundamental safety-critical systems in modern vehicles, as its main purpose is to stop or decelerate the vehicle. The frictional heat generated during braking ...

Two continuously regenerating traps CRT-A and CRT-B were evaluated under the controlled carbonyl emissions from a turbocharged diesel engine run on an AC electrical dynamometer. The gas-phase carbonyls were taken in silica ...

Fridges are used in various industries, and heat exchanger is one of the main components of these systems; therefore, efficiency analysis of these systems is very important. In many fridges, frost over the heat exchanger ...

Aluminum foams are a novel branch of advanced materials with superior properties. Sandwich structures with aluminum foam core are good energy absorbers. In this paper, mechanical properties and energy absorption of aluminum ...

A nonlocal beam model based on the Bernoulli–Euler beam theory is presented to investigate the dynamic stability of embedded single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) in thermal environment under combined static and periodic ...

Differential steering of in-wheel electric vehicle provides the functions of both active steering and power assisted steering with the coupling control of force and displacement transfer characteristic of system. A ...

Multi frequency vibrations of a system of two isotropic circular plates interconnected by a rolling visco-elastic layer that has nonlinear characteristics are considered. The system with two circular plates and interconnecting ...
