The purpose of this paper is to numerically investigate the fatigue life and crack growth path 2024 aluminum plate riveted joints. For purpose, according field observations, parameters affecting are obtained. Relevant geometric such as rivet shank length, hole diameter dimensional tolerances, well location pattern rivets material joints studied. In study, modeling performed calculate equivalent...

A physically-based numerical model is developed to predict the microstructural evolution and strengthening in Al-Cu-Mg alloys during isothermal treatments. The modelling of the formation kinetics of the precipitates is based on the Kampmann and Wagner model. The strengthening by the shearable Cu:Mg co-clusters is modelled on the basis of modulus strengthening mechanism and the strengthening by ...

vibratory drilling (vd)process is a new modern technology where longitudinal wave with high frequency (more than 16 khz) and low amplitude (usually between 2 up to 30 µm) is superimposed on the movement of cutting tool, resulting in connection and disconnection of cutting tool engagement with workpiece. in this study, in order to perform vibratory drilling process, two vibration tools are desig...

The strain-specific modifier Ssm1 is responsible for the straindependent methylation of particular E. coli gpt-containing transgenic sequences.Here,we identifySsm1as theKRAB-zinc finger (ZF) gene 2610305D13Rik located ondistal chromosome4.Ssm1b is amember of a gene family with an unusual array of three ZFs. Ssm1 family members in C57BL/6 (B6) and DBA/2 (D2) mice have various amino acid changes ...

We present an analysis of NICMOS observations of the embedded cluster associated with NGC 2024. An analysis of the cluster color-magnitude diagram (CMD) using the models of D'Antona & Mazzitelli (1997) and Baraffe et al. (1998) indicates that the ratio of intermediate mass (1.0 to 10.0 M ⊙) to low mass (0.1 to 1.0 M ⊙) stars is consistent with the stellar initial mass function (IMF) for the fie...

This study analyses the expansion of urban growth and land cover changes in five Saudi Arabian cities (Riyadh, Jeddah, Makkah, Al-Taif and the Eastern Area) using Landsat images for the 1985, 1990, 2000, 2007 and 2014 time periods. The classification was carried out using object-based image analysis (OBIA) to create land cover maps. The classified images were used to predict the land cover chan...
