Effect of bond enhancement using carbon nanotubes on flexural behavior of RC beams strengthened with externally bonded CFRP sheets
(
Springer Nature
, 2022 , Article)
This paper studied the effect of incorporation of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) on strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) beams. The RC beams were prepared, strengthened in flexure ...
Gear Tooth Crack Detection Using Modal Analysis
(
IEEE
, 2022 , Conference Paper)
This paper aims to propose an experimental method to detect and quantify the existence of cracks in spur gear teeth using modal analysis. Frequency Response Functions FRFs obtained analytically in previous work are considered ...
Comprehensive thermoeconomic, exergoeconomic, and optimization analyses of direct oxy-combustion supercritical CO2 intercooled and reheated cycles under design and off-design conditions
(
Wiley-Blackwell
, 2022 , Article)
This study presents comprehensive energetic, exergetic, exergoeconomic, and economic (4E) performance analyses for four direct oxy-combustion (DOC) supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO2) power cycles at design, off-design, ...
Safety Analysis of Merging Vehicles Based on the Speed Difference between on-Ramp and Following Mainstream Vehicles Using NGSIM Data
(
Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI)
, 2022 , Article)
Highway merging points are critical elements due to the interactions between merging vehicles and following vehicles on the outermost lane of the highway stream. Such interactions could have significant implications for ...
Systematic thermodynamic approach for designing mixed refrigerants used in hydrogen precooling process
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Designing an optimal mixed-refrigerant (MR) composition for any cryogenic refrigeration process plays a key role in the process overall performance. However, the existing approaches of developing mixed-refrigerants for ...
The impact of PV generation and load types on the impedance relays during both balanced and unbalanced faults
(
University of Kuwait
, 2022 , Article)
Photovoltaic (PV) power generation and the types of connected loads both have an effect on protective impedance relays' readings. This paper investigates this effect in a real distribution system installed in the State of ...
Effect of Carbonyl Iron Particle Types on the Structure and Performance of Magnetorheological Elastomers: A Frequency and Strain Dependent Study
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
Magnetorheological elastomers (MREs) are smart viscoelastic materials in which their physical properties can be altered when subjected to a varying magnetic field strength. MREs consist of an elastomeric matrix mixed with ...
