The Design, Construction and Performance of the 53 Mhz Rf Cavities for the Nsls X-ray Ring

Four single cell rf cavities currently provide the required energy to the x-ray ring beam. Mechanical deficiencies and limitations of these early cavities necessitated their replacement with newly designed units. The selection of forged OFHC copper, replacement of traditional Conflat flanges with integrally machined Marmon type flanges, use of commercial spring loaded metal seals for both vacuu...

ANALYTICAL STUDY OF STEEL I-BEAM WITH STEPPED FLANGES

This paper presents a parametric study of steel I- beam with stepped flanges by using finite element analysis. Stepped flange beam is used in structures to decrease the negative bending moments near interior supports that causes failure due to buckling. Steps in the cross section can be achieved by adding cover plates to the beam flanges, changing the size of the hot rolled section, or changing...

Influence of flanges on the shear-carrying capacity of reinforced concrete beams without web reinforcement

New Mathematical Modeling of Steel Panel Zone with Thin to Thick Column Flanges

The response of a steel moment resisting frame (MRF) depends on the specifications of its main components, namely the columns, beams and connections. One important connection element which can significantly affect frame behavior is the panel zone (PZ). The PZ is described to be an element mainly subjected to shear stresses and its failure mode is often governed by shear yielding. Several analyt...

Approximate Expressions for the Reflection Coefficient of Ducts Terminated by Circular Flanges

Estimating the magnitude of the pressure reflection coefficient |R| and the end correction l at the open end of ducts is a critical procedure when designing or predicting the acoustic behavior of acoustical systems, such as exhausts, tailpipes, mufflers, loudspeaker enclosures and so on. For cylindrical ducts and plane waves, exact intricate solutions exist for two distinct open-end boundary co...
