The behaviors of bar-reinforced concrete filled steel tubular columns subjected to axial load were studied. One plain concrete filled steel tubular column and three bar-reinforced concrete filled steel tubular columns were tested. The deformation of specimens and the strain of steel tubes were measured. Based on experimental researches, a simple numerical analysis method was presented to simula...

The metallic low and intermediate level radioactive waste generally consists of carbon steel and stainless steels. The corrosion rate of carbon steel in deep groundwater is typically low, unless the water is very acidic or microbial activity in the environment is high. Therefore, the assessment of microbially induced corrosion of carbon steel in deep bedrock environment has become important for...

The demand for cleaner steels increases every year. In addition to lowering non-metallic oxide inclusions and controlling their size distribution, morphology, and composition, clean steel requires control of sulfur, phosphorus, hydrogen, nitrogen and even carbon, and minimizing metallic impurity elements such as As, Sn, Sb, Se, Cu, Zn, Pb, Cd, Te and Bi. These requirements vary with steel grade...

Abstract: Polyurethane-steel sandwich structure, which creatively uses the polyurethane-steel sandwich composite as a structural material, is proposed to strengthen the impact resistance of buildings under debris flow. The impact resistance of polyurethane-steel sandwich structure under debris flow is investigated by a series of impact loading tests, compared with that of traditional steel fram...

Steel production involves three basic steps. At first, the heat source is to be produced to melt the iron ore. Next in a furnace iron is melted. Lastly, to produce steel the molten iron is processed. The advantage of steel over iron is greatly enhanced strength. The properties of steel are highly reliant on the amount of alloying elements, so that their levels are carefully controlled during it...

This paper studies the post-local buckling behaviour of steel plates in concrete-filled thin-walled steel tubular columns under biaxial loading using the finite element method. Geometric and material nonlinear finite element analyses are undertaken to investigate the post-local buckling strengths of imperfect steel plates under stress gradients. Based on the results obtained from the nonlinear ...

Alkaline treatment with steel slag and NaOH addition were investigated under different pH conditions for the fermentation of waste activated sludge. Better performance was achieved in steel slag addition scenarios for both sludge hydrolysis and acidification. More solubilization of organic matters and much production of higher VFA (volatile fatty acid) in a shorter time can be achieved at pH10 ...

We outline the ability of zinc phosphate coatings, obtained by chemical conversion, to protect mild steel rebars against localized corrosion, generated by chloride ions in alkaline media. The corrosion resistance of coated steel, in comparison with uncoated rebars and coated and uncoated steel rebars embedded in mortar, were evaluated by open-circuit potential, potentiodynamic polarization, cro...

The interaction between the surface of stainless steel and Bacillus cereus was studied in terms of the characteristics of interfacial interaction determined from the measurement of the contact angle of the surface of B. cereus and stainless steel in the presence or absence of B. cereus adherence. The microtopographies and the roughness of the surface of stainless steel and stainless steel adher...
