Thermo-mechanical vibration of rotating axially functionally graded nonlocal Timoshenko beam
(
Springer Verlag
, 2017 , Article)
The free vibration analysis of rotating axially functionally graded nanobeams under an in-plane nonlinear thermal loading is provided for the first time in this paper. The formulations are based on Timoshenko beam theory ...
Correlating the microstructure to mechanical properties and wear behavior of an accumulative back extruded Al-Mg2Si in-situ composite
(
Elsevier
, 2017 , Article)
The present work was conducted to study the effects of microstructural evolutions on the mechanical and wear behavior of an accumulative back extruded aluminum-based in-situ composite. The mechanical fragmentation and ...
Lifted polynomial size formulations for the homogeneous and heterogeneous vehicle routing problems
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Article)
We propose compact formulations for the symmetric and asymmetric capacitated vehicle routing problems. These formulations are obtained by lifting, using the Reformulation-Linearization Technique, a novel polynomial size ...
Thermal performance of stadium's Field of Play in hot climates
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
The stadium Field of Play (FoP) is a large area of grass that affects the stadiums overall thermal performance. This paper experimentally and numerically investigates the thermal performance of stadiums FoP in hot and arid ...
Effects of high frequency drive speed modulation on rotor with continuous stator contact
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
In many mechanical systems, rotating structures experience continuous rotor-stator contact and torsion motions are dominant in the response. Drill strings used in the oil and gas industry represent one example of rotating ...
Effect of multi-pass friction stir processing on the microstructure, mechanical and wear properties of AA5083/ZrO2 nanocomposites
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
In this study, multi-pass friction stir processing using zirconia nanoparticles was performed on AA5083 sheets to fabricate surface nanocomposites. Effect of using different number of passes on the microstructure, ...
Enhancing mode I inter-laminar fracture toughness of aluminum/fiberglass fiber-metal laminates by combining surface pre-treatments
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
This paper investigates the influence of multiple surface treatment, including chemical etching and plasma treatments, on the mode I inter-laminar fracture toughness () of aluminum/fiberglass fiber-metal laminates. Laser ...
Collapse behavior of thin-walled corrugated tapered tubes
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
Thin-walled structures have been widely used in energy absorption and safety applications such as automotive, due to their lightweight and progressive folding modes. This work studies the collapse behavior and energy ...
Emission policies and their analysis for the design of hybrid and dedicated closed-loop supply chains
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
Government legislation and consumer awareness on carbon emissions have required industries to seek alternative ways to reorganize their supply chains. Therefore, industries have to consider not only the activities in the ...
A novel model and decomposition approach for the integrated airline fleet assignment, aircraft routing, and crew pairing problem
(
INFORMS Inst.for Operations Res.and the Management Sciences
, 2017 , Article)
Given a daily flight schedule and a set of aircraft fleets, the airline scheduling problem assigns individual aircraft and groups of crew to each flight based on specific considerations of aircraft maintenance requirements ...
