Numerical study of strength mismatch in cross-weld tensile testing

The strength mismatch effect on the deformation behaviour of defect-free cross-weld tensile specimens, where there is a variation in strength along the length of the specimen, was investigated through 2D finite element analysis. A simple bi-material model, which is generally used in current engineering assessments (e.g. R6 “Assessment of the integrity of structures containing defects”) to exami...

Testing Cross-Section Correlation in Panel Data Using Spacings

This article provides tools for characterizing the extent of cross-section correlation in panel data when we do not know a priori how many and which series are correlated. Our tests are based on the probability integral transformation of the ordered correlations. We first split the transformed correlations by their size into two groups, then evaluate the variance ratio of the two subsamples. Th...

Cross-well electromagnetic imaging in three dimensions

In this paper, we develop a new technique for 3D cross-well electromagne tic tomography, based on an EM borehole survey consisting of a moving vertical magnet ic dipole transmitter, located in one or several boreholes, and a tri-axial induction receiver, located in the other boreholes. The method is based on the LQL approximation for forward modelling, which results in a fast inversion scheme ....
