In this paper, experimental responses of the clamped mild steel, copper, and aluminium circular plates are presented subjected to blast loading. The GMDH-type neural networks (Group Method of Data Handling) are then used for the modelling of the mid-point deflection thickness ratio of the circular plates using those experimental results. The aim of such modelling is to show how the mid-point de...

Abstract During the last three decades, interest in application of steel shear walls has increased worldwide. Steel are used as stiffened and unstiffened walls. One main shortcomings plate wall (SPSW) is infill buckling mainly under lateral wind seismic loads. useful solutions to prevent use with corrugated plates. In this research, behavior a consisting two plates was investigated material cas...

Surface texture influences friction and transfer layer formation during sliding. In the present investigation, various kinds of surface texture with varying roughness were produced on steel plates. Pins made of Mg-8Al alloy were then slid against the prepared steel plates using inclined pin-on-plate sliding tester to understand the role of surface texture of the harder surface and load on coeff...

Water spray cooling is a technique typically used in heat treatment and other metallurgical processes where controlled temperature regimes are required. Water spray cooling is used in static (without movement) or dynamic (with movement of the steel plate) regimes. The static regime is notable for the fixed position of the hot steel plate and fixed spray nozzle. This regime is typical for quench...

the objectives in the cold rolling process include improved sheet surface quality, enhanced steel mechanical strength, and better solidification operations. given the increasing demand for higher steel surface quality, more rapid production, and thinner steel plates, more attention has been directed toward the parameter of temperature in cold rolling as a means of achieving the above objectives...

The strengthening of steel structures using externally bonded (EB) carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminates has gained popularity due to the advantages such as their high strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance. Even though previous studies showed application EB CFRP can enhance fatigue performance cracked plates, little is known regarding high-cycle CFRP-to-steel joints. As d...

The deformation mechanism is complex in the hot rolling process of clad plates, and head bending a common defect. In this paper, an analytical computational mechanical model metal plate was established by classical elastic mechanics method, relationship between uneven thickness extension warpage obtained. bonding dissimilar bimetallic plates Ti/Steel investigated. On basis, origins defects infl...

In this research, in addition to ensuring the accuracy of numerical simulations, a 3D reinforced concrete column is numerically modeled three conditions, including non-retrofitted state, as well two states retrofitted with steel plates and CFRP. The coupled temperature-displacement analysis these columns conducted under cyclic lateral loading various heat levels, effects both retrofits on behav...

Composite couple beams are the concrete elements consisting of longitudinal bars and steel plate, therefore suitable for shear transferring in couple shear walls with arranged gates in its height. In this paper, after modeling couple beams with and without steel plates with F.E methods and calibration the models with experimental results, effects of parameters such as thickness, height, length ...
