Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAssessment of Surface Treatment on Fatigue Life of Cylinder Block for Linear Engine using Frequency Response ApproachM. M. Rahman, A. K. Ariffin, S. Abdullah et al.Objectives: This study was focused on the finite element techniques to investigate the effect of surface treatment on the fatigue life of the vibrating cylinder block for new two-stroke free piston engine using random loading conditions. Motivation: An understanding of the effects related to the random loading is necessary to improve the ability of designers to accurately predict the fatigue … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 8,142 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Study of Fatigue Data Editing using the Short-Time Fourier Transform (STFT)S. Abdullah, C. K.E. Nizwan, M. Z. NuawiThis study presents the development of the STFT-based fatigue data editing technique that will be used as a tool to accelerate for accelerating fatigue testing. This technique was performed by removing low amplitude cycles contained in the original signal in order to produce a shortened signal using the Short-Time Fourier Transform (STFT) parameter. The effectiveness of STFT power spectrum was … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 8,430 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffects of Spot Diameter and Sheets Thickness on Fatigue Life of Spot Welded Structure based on FEA ApproachM. M. Rahman, A. B. Rosli, M. M. Noor et al.This study presents the effect of the spot weld and sheets thickness on the fatigue life of the of the spot-weld joints to predict the lifetime and location of the weakest spot-welds due to the variable amplitude loading conditions. A simple model was used to illustrate the technique of spot-weld fatigue analysis. Finite element model and analysis were carried out … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,867 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCreep-Fatigue Crack Growth Interaction in Nickel Base Supper AlloyF. DjavanroodiMost engineering components which operate at elevated temperatures are subjected to non-steady loading during service. This paper describes the current fracture mechanics concepts that are employed to predict cracking of Nickel base supper alloy materials at high temperatures under low and high frequency cyclic loading. A model for predicting creep crack growth in terms of C* and the creep uniaxial … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 May 2008 · 6,895 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMaize Oil Can Replace Fish Oil in The Diet of Grouper Postlarvae (Epinephelus Coioides) Without Adversely Affecting Growth or Fatty Acid CompositionJin Niu, Yong-Jian Liu, Li-Xia Tian et al.This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of dietary lipid sources on growth, survival and body composition of 40 day post hatch larval grouper, Epinephelus coioides. Fish were fed fish meal and protein hydrolysate based diets for 32 days with either 100% maize oil or 100% fish oil in triplicate from 40-day after hatching to slaughter size (fish weight: … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 8,283 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleLaboratory Diameteral Fatigue Performance of Stone Matrix Asphalt with Cellulose Oil Palm FiberRatnasamy Muniandy, Bujang B.K. HuatStone Matrix Asphalt (SMA) is a gap-graded mix that is gaining popularity worldwide. Generally, gap graded mixes are thought to be weak in fatigue resistance. In this study, cellulose fibers were pre-blended in PG64-22 binder with fiber proportions of 0.2%, 0.4%, 0.6%, 0.8% and 1.0% by weight of aggregates. The fiber-modified binder showed improved rheological properties and showed that the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2006 · 8,984 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Methyl Cellulose Coating and Pre-Treatment on Oil Uptake, Moisture Retention and Physical Properties of Deep-Fat Fried Starchy Dough SystemJihad M. Quasem, Ayman Suliman Mazahreh, Khaled Abu-Alruz et al.Problem statement: The influence of edible methyl cellulose coating and blanching pre-treatment in reducing oil uptake and moisture loss during frying of starchy dough system was investigated. Approach: Potato dough cylinder of 60 mm length and 22 mm diameter was used as a model food system. Samples were coated with 0.5% methyl cellulose film-forming solution and uncoated samples were used … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,467 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTHE ADVERSE EFFECT OF STEEL PARTICLE CONTAMINANTS ON FATIGUE LIFE OF GREASE LUBRICATED BALL BEARINGSA. Stathis, Th. Costopoulos, D. Koulocheris, K. RaptisThe rating life of ball bearings is reduced when hard particle contaminants are present in the lubricant. Usually, this life reduction is taken into account in the calculation of modified rating life by using the contamination factor through a general characterization of the lubrication conditions. However, the impact of contaminant’s variables such as size, hardness and concentration level has to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 9 · 14 Jul 2014 · 6,995 accessesView PDFCite
