This paper presents finite element analysis (FEA) of a coated and uncoated cylinder heads of a diesel engine to examine the distribution of temperature and stress. A thermal barrier coating system was applied on the combustion chamber of the cylinder heads, consists of two-layer systems: a ceramic top coat (TC), made of yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ), ZrO2-8%Y2O3 and also a metallic bond coat...

dual phase steels with different martensite volume fraction and morphology were tensile tested at a temperature range of 25 to 5500c. stress-strain curves of all steels showed serration flow at temperatures of 250 and 3500c, and smooth flow at the other temperatures. both yield and ultimate tensile strengths increased with increasing testing temperature up to about 4500c and then decreased at h...

Bitki ekosistemi içerisinde bitkilerin çimlenme, gelişme ve dağılımında etkili olan faktörler mevcuttur. Bu faktörlerin bitkinin istediği optimum koşullarda gerçekleşmesi durumunda, sağlıklı bir büyüme gerçekleşir. en önemlilerinden birisi de sıcaklıktır. kaynak ihtiyacını karşılamada yaşanacak aksaklık, bitkilerde olumsuz etkilere neden olmaktadır. Küresel iklim değişikliğine bağlı olarak arta...

In hot forming process, the workpiece undergoes plastic deformation at high temperature and the microstructure of the workpiece changes according to the plastic deformation. These changes affect the mechanical properties of workpiece. In order to optimize this process, both the plastic deformation of workpiece and its microstructural changes should be taken into consideration. Since material be...

Several forms of psychological stress result in a rise in body temperature in rats. In this study, we report that rats housed at a low ambient temperature (11.1 degrees C) develop stress-induced rises in body temperature that do not differ from the responses seen when the animals are kept at a temperature within their thermoneutral zone (24.7 degrees C). These data support the hypothesis that s...

heat stress particularly  at  outdoor  workplaces in hot-dry    climates can  disrupt    the physical or mental functions and effect negatively on human performance. we aimed to study the effect of heat stress on productivity loss among workers of brick workshops in qom province – central iran. this cross-sectional descriptive and analytic study was performed on 184 workers in 40 brick workshop...

Detailed three-dimensional nonlinear thermal and thermo-mechanical analyses are carried out using the finite element welding simulation code––WELDSIM [Chao et al., In: Advances in Computational & Engineering Science, vol. II, Tech Science Press: Paledale, USA: 2000. pp. 1206–1211]. The objective is to investigate the effect of each temperature-dependent material property on the transient temper...

The present study deals with stress analysis on orthotropic graded rotating annular discs subjected to temperature distributions parabolically decreasing with radius. I have used infinitesimal deformation theory of elasticity and for graded parameters power law functions in the solution procedure. With the increasing temperature, the tangential stress component decreased at the inner surface wh...

A cold strain index (CSI) based on core (Tcore) and mean skin temperatures (T sk) and capable of indicating cold strain in real time and analyzing existing databases has been developed. This index rates cold strain on a universal scale of 0-10 and is as follows: CSI = 6.67(Tcoret - Tcore 0) ⋅ (35 - Tcore 0)-1 + 3.33(T sk t -T sk 0) ⋅ (20 -T sk 0)-1, where Tcore 0 andT sk 0are initial measuremen...
