On the torsion constant of multicell profiles and its maximization with respect to spar position
نویسنده
چکیده
A closed form expression for the torsion constant of thin-walled multicell profiles is derived based on a simple algorithm to generate the coefficient matrix of the system of linear algebraic equations for the shear flows. New explicit results are given for the three-cell profiles with either two or three internal walls, and for the two-cell profiles. They are applied to derive the optimal location of the internal walls which maximizes the torsion constant of triangular, rectangular, elliptical and deltoidal thin-walled profiles. The condition is also derived for the inner wall to carry a prescribed portion of the shear flow in a two-cell profile, with the application to thin-walled trapezoidal and rectangular profiles. & 2009 Elsevier Ltd.

Optimization of Axisymmetric Extrusion Die Profiles
In this research, optimization process of axisymmetric extrusion dies is proposed. Plastic zone is analyzed using finite element method in the Eulerian system with flow formulation. The die profiles are defined by Bezier curves with six control points. Two effective functions are considered in this research; standard deviation of the strain rate and the rate of energy consumption during extrusi...
متن کاملA Phenomenological Study on Inelastic Torsion Caused By Nonlinear Behavior Changes during Earthquake Excitations
Torsion of many symmetric structures, which were designed based on the seismic codes, is due to their asymmetricity induced during inelastic behavior. Although the structure was designed symmetrically assuming elastic based criteria, different factors such as material inconsistency in structure, construction details discrepancy and construction errors may result in asymmetric behavior in inelas...

متن کاملFirst Finding of Satin Spar Gemstone in Iran, Folded Zagros Zone, Fars Region
The gypsum mineralization occurred in the form of Satin Spar and Selenite in the south and southwest of the Fars province in the folded Zagros zone. In this region, Satin Spar mineralization has been formed as stratiform between the red marl and siltstone units of Late Miocene–Pliocene in Agha Jari, Bakhtiari, and the Gachsaran formations. The reserves of Satin Spar in this area are at least 20...
