The paper presents the influence of low alloy steel degradation on the acoustic emission (AE) generated during static tension of notched specimen. The material was cut from a technological pipeline long-term operated in the oil refinery industry. Comparative analysis of AE activity generated by damage process of degraded and new material has been c...

In cold environment, the damage of freezing and thawing poses a great threat to the safety of concrete structures. In this study, six frost-damaged squat reinforced concrete (RC) shear walls were subjected to low cyclic reversal loading to investigate the effects of axial compression ratio, concrete strength and freeze-thaw cycles (FTCs) on the sei...

The current report is devoted to the flexural analysis of a composite structural insulated panel (CSIP) with magnesium oxide board facings and expanded polystyrene (EPS) core, that was recently introduced to the building industry. An advanced nonlinear FE model was created in the ABAQUS environment, able to simulate the CSIP’s flexural behavior in ...

Due to the limitation of huge forming load, inhomogeneity of plastic deformation, and small volume of deformation region, it is difficult to prepare bulk ultra-fine grains material (UFGM) with industry size by the existing severe plastic deformation (SPD) methods. In this study, a novel SPD method, namely 3D-SPD, was proposed. By establishing finit...

This study presents spatial vibration modelling of steel–concrete composite beams. Structures of this type are commonly used as elements of composite floors and primary carrying girders in bridge structures. Two-dimensional models used to date did not enable analysis of all eigenmodes, specifically torsional, flexural horizontal, and distortional. ...

Experimental and numerical study on the mechanical performance of curved steel–concrete composite box girders is reported in this research. First, this research establishes a theoretical model for curved composite girders with 11° of freedoms (DOFs) for each node. The DOFs include the longitudinal displacement, transverse displacement, deflection, ...

This study was conducted to investigate the capability of multi-pass friction stir processing (FSP) on microstructure modification and mechanical properties improvement of FVS0812 alloy. FSP was performed at different rotation speeds (1250, 1600, 2000, and 2500 rpm) and traverse speeds (8, 12, and 25 mm/min) for one, two, and four passes. According...
