Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase 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 · 7,864 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase 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 · 6,991 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsWelded 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 abstractImpact of CTLA-4 Inhibitor Combined with Chemotherapy on Immunoglobulin Levels and General Condition in Breast Cancer PatientsRuiguang CaiThis study conducted an evaluation of the CTLA-4 inhibitor ipilimumab plus standard chemotherapy on immunoglobulin levels, performance status, and Quality of Life (QoL) in patients with stage I-III Breast Cancer (BC) via a randomized controlled trial. 120 patients with stage I-III BC were randomly allocated to the experimental group (chemotherapy + ipilimumab) and the control group (chemotherapy), and the treatment … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 3 Jul 2026 · 1,115 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNanomodified Adhesive Composition for Aeronautical Structures Based on Polymer Composite MaterialsVladimir Dmitrievich Vermel, Sergei Anatol’evich Titov, Yuriy Vital’evich Kornev et al.Computer simulation of the properties of Nanomodified Adhesive Compositions (NMC) based on ED-20 epoxide resin doped with carbon nanomaterials was carried out. It is shown that open carbon nanotubes are an efficient additive to increase mechanical shearing properties of adhesive compositions based on epoxide matrix. Using the nanoindentation method it was found that introduction of carbon nanotubes into adhesive compositions … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 14 Mar 2016 · 7,295 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVerification of Anchoring in Foundations of Wind Turbine TowersNafsika Stavridou, Evangelos Efthymiou, Charalampos C. BaniotopoulosTubular steel towers are the most common supporting structure of wind converters. The towers’ foundation covers an important part of the initial cost and its configuration depends heavily on the type of subsoil. Onshore structures are founded on spread footing foundations or pile foundations with the first being the commonest. In these spread footing foundations, the tower is either embedded … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 23 Nov 2015 · 8,394 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractENHANCEMENT OF TOTAL TECHNICAL LIFE OF AERO PLANESA. Balachandran, P. R. Suresh, Shriram K. Vasudevan, Kaushik VelusamyGovernment of India spends most of its income towards strengthening the Army, Air Force and Navy. Out of the amount spent for this, about 80% of money is spent on technology advancement and maintenance. We are coming in particular now about the Air Force and its fighter jets along with other flying machines as well. Taking Mirage-2000 as an instance, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 22 Nov 2013 · 6,615 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStochastic Prognostic Paradigm for Petrochemical Pipelines Subject to FatigueAbdo Abou Jaoude, Khaled El-TawilThe most important aim for industrialists is the prevention and the evaluation of their products state since non-predicted failure is very expensive in some cases. This can be done mainly by the evaluation of the &#34Remaining Useful Lifetime&#34 (RUL) by the means of prognostic approaches compensating the inconveniences of classical maintenance strategies. A proposed analytic prognostic methodology based on damage … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 15 Apr 2013 · 7,557 accessesView PDFCite
