Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Laser Irradiation on the Structural and Electrical Properties of Co-Zn Ferrite Thin FilmNehad M. TashtoushThin films of irradiated and non-irradiated Co-Zn ferrite was prepared by the thermal evaporation method on a glass substrate. The samples were annealed at 200°C, 400°C and 600°C for 1hr. The XRD analysis of all kinds of films, prepared for this study, shows that the spinel phase is almost completed after annealing. The change of the XRD after annealing is … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2005 · 7,039 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Rotation Effect on Shear Horizontal Surface Wave in a Piezoelectric Semi-Space Covered by a Semiconductor FilmFatimah AlshaikhIn this study, a mathematical model of the rotation effect on Shear Horizontally wave (SH-wave) propagation in a piezoelectric semi-space covered by a semiconductor film is investigated. The semiconducting layer is rotating with a constant angular velocity and the interface between the piezoelectric substrate and the semiconductor layer is imperfectly bonded. Furthermore, the surfaces of the bilayer system assumed free … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 29 Apr 2017 · 7,214 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractShear Strength of Reinforced Concrete Beam Strengthened by Transverse External Post-tensionSayan Sirimontree, Boonsap Witchayangkoon, Nathavudh Khaosri, Jaruek TeerawongProblem statement: Shear failure of concrete beam is brittle manner without warning so inadequate design for shear of beam and/or material deterioration lead to the possibility of sudden failure of beam. The change of functional use and future increased load of structure lead to the need for strengthening of concrete structure. Approach: This research focuses on behaviors under static loading … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 8,869 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordProgressive Damage Modelling of Transverse Impact Behavior of Adhesively Bonded Composite JointsDimitrios Athinaios, Konstantinos Tserpes, Giannis FlorosA three-dimensional dynamic numerical model was developed, using the commercially available finite element software LS-DYNA to simulate the Low Velocity Impact (LVI) case on bonded joints consisting of woven CFRP adherents. The adhesive failure simulated using the Cohesive Zone Method (CZM), while the failures in the composite material simulated using a progressive damage material model based on Hashin’s failure criteria. … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 3 Apr 2020 · 6,428 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordMinimum and Complete Fluidization Velocity for Sand-Palm Shell Mixtures, Part I: Fluidization Behavior and Characteristic VelocitiesV. S. Chok, A. Gorin, H. B. ChuaProblem statement: Palm shell on its original state cannot be fluidized solely. However, mixing palm shell with a second fluidizable material can facilitate proper fluidization. Approach: The minimum and complete fluidization velocity (Umf and Ucf) for sand/palm shell binary mixtures had been studied in a partitioned reactor known as Compartmented Fluidized Bed Gasifier (CFBG). The pilot scale reactor ID is … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,221 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordDevelopment of a Wear Map for the Sliding and Rotational Wear behavior of ShaftsAl-mahasne Mayas MohammadThis study was an attempt to study the wear calculation method for rotating shaft in the friction couple type shaft-cuff in conditions of oiling in high dusty environment. The size and quantity of abrasive particles that go into the clearance between friction surfaces, definition of the pressure including the load in conjugate that is given by the cuff spring as … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,915 accessesView PDF Cite
