Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleWind Load Effects on Manufactured Home FoundationsRamesh K. Dhungana, Taher M. Abu-Lebdeh, Ellie H. FiniProblem statement: Manufactured homes are susceptible to hurricane damage. Each year, significant losses, in terms of fatalities and property damage, are reported. There is always a prevalent concern about lateral load resistance capacity of tie-down system of manufactured homes when subjected to windstorms. This study is performed to determine the effects of hurricane wind on manufactured homes’ foundations. Approach: A … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 25 Jan 2012 · 8,329 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleInvestigation of Shear Lag Factor in Long Structures with Pipeline System in Tubes under Wind LoadReza Salehi, Alireza KhalooThe type of lateral load capacity systems is one of the major challenges of structural engineers in implementing and designing high-rise structures. One type of common system is a pipe system in which the type of pipe in the classified pipe exhibits good behavior under wind and earthquake loading conditions. One of the issues that researchers have been studying over … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 22 May 2018 · 8,231 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleWelded Connections of Wind Turbine Towers under Fatigue Loading: Finite Element Analysis and Comparative StudyNafsika Stavridou, Evangelos Efthymiou, Charalampos C. BaniotopoulosIncreased contemporary energy needs have led to multiple investments on wind power plants and structural improvements are considered necessary for the construction of taller, more robust and more economical structures. Tubular steel wind turbine towers that are the prevailing structural configuration, demand welding of circular subparts to construct the tower structure. These circumferential welds between tower subparts and between the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 18 Aug 2015 · 8,894 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffects of Architectural Irregularities on the Seismic Behavior of BuildingsSara Mostafa Karra, Iman Hajal, Youmn Al Rawi, Aya DiabCooperation between the architect and the civil engineer has nowadays become essential in any project for the client’s requests’ sake. This study was made to show this idea’s importance and beneficial consequences. For this purpose, a 40-story dual-system high-rise building has been designed to resist moderate seismic and high wind loads. Three main models were formed: Starting with the net … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 24 Apr 2021 · 6,779 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsStudies on Some Properties of Quality and Performance in Wood WindowsTuncer Dilik, Barış AltunThe determination of some quality and performance properties of windows, made of tree species used frequently in industrial window manufacturing and the effects of tree species on those properties have been examined. According to the results of the study by considering regular standards, in the air resistance tests, the classification has been determined as follows: those made of Scots pine … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,859 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGlass Strength for Impact and Blast LoadingMatthias Förch, Frank WellershoffGlass strength is highly influenced by strain rate. This material behaviour is well known in structural glass design and implemented in various standards. The strength of architectural glass is determined by component tests with a defined strain rate of 2 N/(mm2s), providing favourable terms for testing. As typical effects of actions on facades result in lower or higher strain rates, … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 7 May 2021 · 8,115 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Strategic Study on the Environmental Impacts of Wind Turbine Blade Materials, their Improvements, Economics and End-Life-OptionsOjshwi Prakash, Godwin Glivin, N. Kalaiselvan, V. MariappanWind energy is a great alternative to solar energy (During monsoon) along with conventional non-renewable energy sources and has a potential market growing exponentially. Modern 3 Blade HAWTs are most dominant in the market and have high efficiency. Blades are 15 to 20% of the cost of the wind turbine unit and also exposed to the environment. Therefore it is … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 13 Nov 2020 · 8,366 accessesView PDFCite

Present a limited conventional source. Environment pollution by the burning of diesel fuel will be increased. And the using wind energy source controls the pollution and efficiency will be increased. In this process, the wind energy system is connected to the network … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 6 May 2019 · 6,716 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigating the Behavior of Steel Composite Shear Wall with Corrugated Plate under Lateral LoadSeyedeh Asma MirfazliJirdehiThe steel shear wall system has been considered as a structural system over the past few decades. This issue deals with wind and earthquake lateral forces due to its hardness, loading capacity and plasticity. This type of the system, with the use of external hardness resulting from the geometric shape of the waves, has better buckling strength than a hardened … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 14 Jul 2018 · 7,900 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Researches Examines the Wing Shapes to Reduce Vortex and WakeNicolae Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuIt is common to see clouds in the form of the sky, known as contrails, which are behind the engines of a reaction plan. What is not always visible is a wind whirl that comes out of the top of each wing - like two small horizontal tornadoes - leaving behind a turbulent awakening behind the vehicle. Awakening is a … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 19 Jun 2018 · 7,416 accessesView PDFCite
