Stable ductile crack growth in 3 mm thick AISI 304 stainless steel specimens has been investigated experimentally and numerically. Multi-linear Isotropic Hardening method coupled with the Von-Mises yield criterion was adopted for modeling elasto-plastic behavior of the material. Mode-I CT fracture specimens have been tested to generate experimental load-displacement-crack growth data during sta...

More than 100 years ago, Lionel Robert Wilberforce did investigations On the Vibrations of a Loaded Spiral Spring [1]. The spring was clamped at its upper side and on other side, perpendicular to axis, steel cylinder attached. Four screws with adjustable nuts were symmetrically attached around in order change moment inertia (Fig. 1). In this paper pendulum is modeled by rigid body constrained s...

Abstract In this contribution, it is demonstrated that the mesh sensitivity of linear elastic Reissner–Mindlin finite‐element plate formulations can be significantly reduced by using a Petrov–Galerkin‐based approach. contrast to usual Bubnov–Galerkin method, Petrov–Galerkin methods are generally characterized fact test function and trial approximated different shape functions. To provide an ove...

Ultrasonic transducers play a significant role in generating and receiving the acoustic waves in ultrasonic flowmeters. Depending on the required accuracy, the ultrasonic transducers can be installed either in one pair or more in an ultrasonic flowmeter. The main part of an ultrasonic transducer is its piezoceramic element. In this work, four piezoceramic elements with different diameter to thi...

in this study, an extended stress-based forming limit diagram (fld) for prediction of necking based on the marciniak and kucznski (m-k) model is represented and applied in tube hydroforming. the bulge forming of a straight tube is simulated by finite element method and verified with published experimental data. this adaptive simulation technique is based on the ability to detect the onset and g...
