Creep Buckling Of Plates Under Biaxial Compression
(
Qatar University
, 1992 , Article)
This work presents an analysis for the creep buckling problem of geometrically imperfect rectangular flat plates under biaxial compression with simple support boundary conditions. The analysis is based on a non-dimensional ...
Accelerating The Convergence Of Cubic Interpolation Method Using Concurrent Algorithm Based On The Transputer Technology
(
Qatar University
, 1992 , Article)
This paper describes a concurrent method to speed up the convergence of the QIOM (Cubic Interpolation Optimization Method) to obtain the global minima for any nonlinear continuous function. The QIOM is a naturally slow, ...
Potential Use Of Carbide Lime Waste As An Alternative Material To Conventional Hydrated Lime Of Cement-Lime Mortars
(
Qatar University
, 1992 , Article)
The present study aimed at the possibility of using the carbide lime waste as an alternative material to the conventional lime used for cement-lime mortar. The waste is a by-product obtained in the generation of acetylene ...
Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity Versus Strength For Concrete In Qatar
(
Qatar University
, 1992 , Article)
Compressive strength of concrete is widely accepted as a characteristic property indicating and representing its quality. The accuracy of both ultrasonic and mechanical strength is discussed and the advantages of ultrasonic ...
Three Dimensional Analysis Of Skeletal Structures Considering Cracking
(
Qatar University
, 1992 , Article)
A three dimensional computer model has been developed to analyze space structures containing cracked members. A new stiffness matrix for cracked space members has been obtained. This model takes into consideration crack ...
Ultrasonic C-Scan Inspection Of Composite Materials
(
Qatar University
, 1992 , Article)
Ultrasonic technique using an automated C-scan has been established as the primary inspection method for composite materials. In this paper, the principles of ultrasonic inspection, the type of defects that may be generated ...
Random Distributed Algorithms For Clock Synchronization
(
Qatar University
, 1992 , Article)
This paper proposes clock synchronization algorithms based on the idea in which randomly chosen m out of the total N processors cooperate to perform the clock adjustment of all processors in a distributed system. Selection ...
Prediction Of Refrigerant Thermodynamic Properties By Equations Of State
(
Qatar University
, 1992 , Article)
The ability of three equations of state (EOS) for calculating the thermodynamic properties of refrigerants has been studied for 35 pure component refrigerants. Three equations of state studied were the Soave-Redlich-Kwong ...
Comparison Of Metal Corrosion Inhibition By Gravimetric And Linear Polarization Resistance Methods
(
Qatar University
, 1992 , Article)
Studies were conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of various dosages of the selected silicate and phosphate compounds applied for corrosion inhibition of cast iron, copper, lead, and galvanized steel specimens. The ...
Unsteady State Two Phase Flow Pressure Drop Calculations
(
Qatar University
, 1992 , Article)
A method is presented to calculate unsteady state two phase flow in a gas-liquid line based on a quasi-steady state approach. A computer program for numerical solution of this method was prepared. Results of calculations ...
