It has been modeled for several replacement policies in literatures that the whole life cycle or operating interval of an operating unit should be finite rather than infinite as is done with the traditional method. However, ...

Titanium alloys with high stacking-fault energy show continuous dynamic recrystallization (CDRX) instead of discontinuous dynamic recrystallization (DDRX) during high-temperature deformation. During the CDRX mechanism, new ...

The FIFA World Cup, comprising sixty-four matches spanning an entire month, has, in recent years, been attended by about three million spectators of which over half a million are visitors requiring lodging. Planning lodging ...

This article presents a new concept design for magnetorheological dampers, where the excitation circuit and magnetic field are applied from outside the magnetorheological chamber. This magnetorheological damper was designed ...

Today, increasing levels of water demand become a particularly serious challenge for many countries, especially since water is an essential element for production of transportation fuels. Unfortunately, no research efforts ...

This study aims to propose a hybrid framework for lean six sigma (LSS) based on the prioritisation of barriers and solution approaches, to facilitate hassles free applications for handling the challenges of wastes reduction ...

In the estimation, using confidence intervals, of quantiles and reliability of the two parameter exponential distribution based on record data, a pivot is defined and its exact cumulative distribution function and probability ...

Here, we adopted a donor-acceptor criteria for charge transfer and synthesize the thermally stable copolymers of poly(aniline-co-2-hydroxyaniline) (PA-co-2-HA) by in-situ copolymerization method having different compositions. ...

In this paper, crushing behaviors of tube with shallow and deep corrugation are experimentally and theoretically examined under axial loading condition. Three types of specimens were tested under quasi static axial loading. ...

Buckling and crushing behavior of foam-core hybrid composite sandwich columns under edgewise compressive load is dealt in this study. Composite laminates with different stacking sequence configurations made of glass and ...
