Thermal Stresses in Severe Environments

Investing for survival of rare severe stresses in heterogeneous environments

We model the ESS investment of limiting resources for survival of rare severe stresses, with an emphasis on investment by trees in mechanical strength for survival of storm stresses. The basic model includes the effects of the fitness benefits of increased survival, the cost in reproduction, the effects of the distributions and timing of the stress in the population, and of stress-independent m...

Investigation and zoning of thermal physiological stresses in Iran

Analysis and zoning of thermal physiological stresses in Iran   Abstract Human health is influenced by weather variables in all circumstances, including atmospheric pressure, humidity and temperature around them. Based on climate hazard and climate changes, different parts of human life and economic and social strategies such as health, hydrological pollutants And agriculture had a profound ...

Transient Thermal Stresses Analysis in a FPGM Cylinder

The present study aims to investigate the analysis of stress, strain, displacement, and electrical potential of a thick hollow cylinder made of FGPM under mechanical and thermal loads. Distribution of mechanical property of material is considered along the shell stick through the power distribution function. Thermal loads have been taken to signify the difference of temperature between outer an...

Thermal Stresses in Direct Metal Laser Sintering

In Direct Metal Laser Sintering objects are created by sequential sintering loose metal powder particles by means of laser technology. When the laser sintering process involves temperature gradients, thermal stresses develop. Corresponding residual stresses induce warping of the densified structure leading to unacceptable tolerance losses. This paper examines the role of laser beam scan pattern...
