Composite systems are widely used in many engineering applications for new structures and strengthening of existing ones. Within the structural rehabilitation of civil constructions, the plating technique of beams with Fiber Reinforced…
In this paper, an additional criterion was introduced to evaluate the composite repair systems using the limit load analysis. The plastic collapse pressure of API 5L X65 PSL2 steel pressure vessel structure with crack defect is numerically…
In this paper, fatigue crack growth of edge crack in 2024 T351 aluminum alloy plate repaired with bonded composite patch under constant and variable amplitude loading (VAL) was predicted. The Al-alloy plate was repaired with symmetric…
This work is about study of the mechanical behaviour of unidirectional Kevlar / Epoxy composite laminates according to different failure criteria. Varying strength parameters values, makes it possible to compare the ultimate mechanical…
Vast number of theoretical and experimental works has been devoted to the study of discontinuous plastic deformation (the Portevin-Le Chatelier effect), which manifests itself for most widely used alloys in certain ranges of both…
In this paper, a C0 simple and efficient isoparametric eight-node displacement-model based on higher order shear deformation theory is proposed for the bending behavior study of multilayer composites sandwich plates. Difficult…
This paper provides a finite element analysis of laminated composite plates under the action of a moving vehicle. The vehicle is modeled as a rigid body with four suspension systems, each consisting of a spring-dashpot. Overall, the…
The escalating importance of lightweight design in engineering demands innovative strategies to tackle this challenge. Traditionally, the joining of these materials involves rivets, bolts, or adhesives. However, contemporary manufacturing…
Base isolation is a widely-used method used to minimise the harmful effects of earthquakes on buildings. Unlike a fixed base building, a building with a base isolation system essentially decouples the superstructure from the substructure…
The use of elastomers has become increasingly important in a variety of industries, including automotive, medical, and food packaging. The adaptability of elastomers to different mechanical stresses has made them a popular choice for these…
