Pitting Damage Evaluation by Liquid/Solid Interface Impact Analysis

Characterizing Hypervelocity Impact (HVI)-Induced Pitting Damage Using Active Guided Ultrasonic Waves: From Linear to Nonlinear

Hypervelocity impact (HVI), ubiquitous in low Earth orbit with an impacting velocity in excess of 1 km/s, poses an immense threat to the safety of orbiting spacecraft. Upon penetration of the outer shielding layer of a typical two-layer shielding system, the shattered projectile, together with the jetted materials of the outer shielding material, subsequently impinge the inner shielding layer, ...

Modeling of impact damage of sewing machine needle on woven fabric by finite element method

Pitting oedema in hypothyroidism.

A 38 yrs old female admitted generalised swelling, puffiness of face and coarsening of features for six months. Examination revealed obesity (BMI 34.7 kg/m) with pitting pedal oedema (Figs, 1,2), normal JVP and delayed relaxation of ankle jerks. Rest of general physical examination and systemic examination was normal. On investigation, haemogram, urine examination, X-ray chest, echocardiography...

‌Progressive Damage Analysis of Laminated Composites using Continuum Damage Mechanics

In this paper, progressive damage and global failure of composite laminates under quasi-static, monotonic loading are investigated using 3D continuum damage mechanics. For this purpose, a finite element program has been developed using an eight-node 2D layered element including layer-wise plate theory. Damage analysis of a single orthotropic layer under various uniform in-plane and transverse l...

IMPROVING PITTING CORROSION OF 304 STAINLESS STEEL BY ELECTROPOLISHING TECHNIQUE

Several surface modification techniques such as ion implantation, surface laser melting, have been employed to improve pitting corrosion resistance of stainless steel. Electropolishing is a technique in which the surface roughness is eliminated through a selective electrochemical dissolution. The effect of electropolishing on pitting corrosion of 304 stainless steel (SS) was investigated employ...
