Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsStudy of Heat-Treated Steel and Related ApplicationsShu-Ping Chang, Ming-Chen Chen, Jyh-Dong LinNumerous studies conducted after the 921 earthquake in Taiwan in 1999 have reported that because heat-treated steel features relatively unstable mechanics properties, using such steel in welding, bar splicing, or as thread-cutting components in structures may result in lack of resistance to seismic activity. However, nondestructive testing methods that can be used to identify the type of steel delivered to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 30 Oct 2015 · 7,543 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNondestructive Test Using a 3D Computer Vision System for Damage Detection of StructuresTaylor M.V. Szeto, Sun YiStructures that do not have a definitive map nor a clearly known state of health may exist underground, beyond our reach and in unsuitable environments. Nuclear facilities contain underground tunnels that exhaust hazardous gases. Industry has miles of sewage lines beneath it that emit flammable and toxic gases. Regular inspection and maintenance is an essential part of failure prevention, however, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 2 Jun 2018 · 8,257 accessesView PDFCite
