Steel Hull Shipbuilding Cost Structure

This study analyses the cost structure of the several processes associated with the shipbuilding industry. The analysed productive processes are: the cutting preparation procedures; the several steel plate cutting processes; the processes of hull plates and stiffeners forming; the associated transport and assembling of plates and profiles; and finally the welding processes. The paper includes 2...

Multi-Damage Detection for Steel Beam Structure

Damage detection has been focused by researchers because of its importance in engineering practices. Therefore, different approaches have been presented to detect damage location in structures. However, the higher the accuracy of methods is required the more complex deliberations. Based on the conventional studies, it was observed that the damage locations and its size are associated with dynam...

Compressibility of 304 Stainless Steel Powder Metallurgy Materials Reinforced with 304 Short Stainless Steel Fibers

Powder metallurgy (P/M) technique is usually used for manufacturing porous metal materials. However, some P/M materials are limitedly used in engineering for their performance deficiency. A novel 304 stainless steel P/M material was produced by a solid-state sintering of 304 stainless steel powders and 304 short stainless steel fibers, which were alternately laid in layers according to mass rat...

Behavior of steel monopoles strengthened with high-modulus CFRP materials

This paper introduces a strengthening technique for steel monopole towers using high-modulus carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) materials. The technique is based on a theoretical and analytical investigation including testing large scale steel monopole towers strengthened with different CFRP materials and connection details. Based on the research findings, design aspects and installation pr...
