SS 316Ti is widely used in bellows industry and is a good candidate material for high temperature bellows in sodium cooled fast reactor (SFR) systems. Typical operating temperature experienced by SFR systems is around 823K. Design of…
This paper analyses how the microstructure of an eutectoid pearlitic steel affects its conventional mechanical properties (obtained by means of a standard tension test) and the associated micromechanisms of fracture. Results show how the…
The paper presents an experimental analysis of tracking the path of the cracks and crack growth in strengthened or repair reinforced concrete short corbels bonded by carbon fiber fabrics under static and dynamic loads. The reinforced short…
Though the principle of orthogonal experimental design, the uniaxial compression experiment and uniaxial tensile experiment were carried out on nine groups of high toughness cementitious composites with different mixing ratios to study the…
This study experimentally investigates the tensile and bond performance of novel GFRP–SSWM hybrid wraps developed using two epoxy adhesives - Sikadur 30 LP and Sikadur 330. A total of 42 coupon specimens for tensile testing and 48 dumbbell…
In the present investigation in-plane anisotropy in tensile and ratcheting behavior of cold rolled and annealed commercially pure titanium plate has been studied. Flat tensile and fatigue test specimen oriented at 0, 45, and 90 degree to…
Hybrid continuous fiber–reinforced composites produced by fused deposition modeling (FDM) offer a promising solution for lightweight load-bearing structures. However, their mechanical performance is strongly governed by internal…
Structural strengthening is vital to improve the load-carrying capacity partially or severely damaged Reinforced Concrete (RC) elements. Fiber Reinforced Polymers (FRPs) are widely used for strengthening purposes. In this study, use of…
This paper addresses the estimation of critical loads in FFF (Fused Filament Fabrication) printed polymers and composites containing notches. Particularly, the analysis is focused on the fracture load estimations of 39 PLA (polylactic…
This work aims to study the influence of protective coatings on the water absorption and mechanical properties of 3D printed poly–lactic acid (PLA) parts. The PLA parts were fabricated with different levels of the 3D printing process…
According to Gradient Mechanics (GM), stress fields have to be determined by directly incorporating into the stress analysis a length scale which that takes into account the material microstructural features. This peculiar modus operandi…
Epoxy resin reinforced with 10% of TiO2 and pure epoxy resin are taken to exemplify the possibility of constructing a fracture locus for engineering organic polymers as a dependence of ultimate strain energy density in cohesive failure on…
This research addresses environmental concerns by exploring environmentally friendly composite materials as substitutes for non-biodegradable synthetic fibers. The study proposes the development of polymer matrix composites reinforced with…
