Fatigue Life of Steel Structures under Service and Ultimate Loadings

für 61.20€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The failures of structures have occurred recently on several occasions both under service and extreme loading conditions. Among these, fatigue is cited as one major mode that especially causes unexpected failures of structures. Most of the present day fatigue assessment approaches in service loadings are generally based on a combination of stress histories, Miner`s rule and code provided fatigue curve. In ultimate loading conditions, the stress- intensity based classical fracture mechanics and strain-life curve based low cycle fatigue models are commonly accepted to assess fracture. However, previous researches had highlighted a number of shortcomings of the above approaches. This book, therefore, introduces three recently proposed fatigue models to estimate the life of steel structures under service and ultimate loadings. The book consists of concepts of each fatigue model, mathematical formulations and case studies. This book provides a new theoretical platform for structural design and maintenance communities by contributing convenient, precise and reliable fatigue models to describe real life of steel structures. ····· 10361115475

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Complications attributed to cardiovascular disease (CVD) are currently the main cause of death worldwide. It is known that the majority of adverse CVD-related events are due to coronary artery diseases: a condition in which fatty lesions called plaques are formed on the walls of the vessels. Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) is a medical image technique that can provide high resolution, cross-sectional images of the interior of the vessels. Segmentation of the lumen and media-adventitia borders in IVUS images is an important procedure for the study and assessment of the atherosclerotic plaques. However, manual segmentation of IVUS images is difficult and time consuming. In this work, an automatic method for the segmentation of the luminal border on IVUS images is presented. The contributions of this work are: (i) a smooth parametrization of the lumen contour, (ii) a custom optimization method that linearly combines the descent directions of the steepest descent and BFGS optimization methods within a trust region that improves convergence, and (iii) the introduction of a multi-scale approach for the segmentation that increases the speed of segmentation. ····· 10361115337

The Indo-Gangetic plains receive rainfall ranging between 650 and 1000 mm, most of which is concentrated during the three months of monsoon period. Out of this, only about 200 mm naturally recharges the ground water aquifers and the remaining part runs off unharnessed into the ocean. Therefore potential exist to capture part of runoff and to store it underground which will be available for use during dry periods. Providing check structures across the unlined drains can increase the recharge capacity of drains. This book, therefore provides a novel method of recharging the ground water. It considers two scenarios i.e., when check structres are used across the drain and when they are not used. Khepar`s model has been used to find optimum number of check structured based on their hydraulic performance. Economic analysis has also been carried out on a drain in Haryana to find out the optimum number of check structures based on difference of annual benefit and annual cost. This book should be especially useful to the professionals in water resources field, or anyone else who may be considering methods of ground water recharge. ····· 10361115145

With the advancement of the field of underwater robotics, the amount of autonomy embodied in the vehicles themselves have considerably increased while making it possible to build and deploy swarms of small autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs). Apart from the many environmental and mechanical challenges encountered in the underwater domain, the swarming paradigm demands the need for each vehicle to be aware of the positions of at least its near neighbours. The Serafina AUV project which was initiated with the goal of developing swarming technology for the small and highly agile Serafina class AUVs requires a localization system which could cope with the dynamic and fast changing vehicle configurations while being small, reliable, robust, and energy efficient and not dependent on pre-deployed acoustic beacons. The acoustical relative localisation system proposed here uses hyperbolic and spherical localization concepts and provides each vehicle with the azimuth, range and heading of its near neighbors. ····· 10361114865

One intriguing characteristic of the human mind is its ability to be creative, that is the ability to generate an output, an action, or a phrase, that is not explicitly learned. In `Creating Creativity` Heather Dewey-Hagborg explores the possibility of creating creativity in another medium, the electronic circuitry of the computer. Dewey-Hagborg proposes that by constructing electronic structures using processes and materials inspired by biology we can enable a capacity in machines to imagine to dream. The artificial creativity Dewey-Hagborg hopes for is not one of technocracy or profitability but the artistic creativity of an alien species able for the first time to comment on human culture in its native tongue. ····· 10361114460

Route Choice with Real-Time Information

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
In recent years information systems are being designed to assist people to make more efficient travel choices under conditions of growing uncertainty. Although travel demand modelers have analyzed the response to real-time information, usually this has been done under the questionable assumptions of rational decision-making. In reality, people can make completely different choices when their decisions are based on information or on experience. Improving behavioral assumptions could well increase the realism of transport demand models. This book describes an experimental approach to study route choice with real-time information. It provides both researchers and practitioners with valuable knowledge on the roles of information and learning in travel behavior and how statistics and state-of-the art discrete choice models can be applied to analyze and model travel behavior in risky and uncertain environments. This book will be especially useful to transportation policy makers and analysts, researchers and students. ····· 10361114130

Existing gari-frying methods (ITGMs) remain largely manual, with low productivity and health hazards. Awkward posture, a risk factor for musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) in these methods, has huge cost implications, but preventable with simple, inexpensive modifications to work methods. The common working postures with their physical workload and postural angle associated with them include sitting-beside SB, sitting-in-front SIF, standing S and alternating-between-sitting-and-standing ABSS. Prevalence of MSDs was determined using Rapid Upper Limb Assessment, Ovako working Posture Analyzing System and Cornell Musculoskeletal Discomfort Questionnaire. Results showed that posture has significant effects on the prevalence of MSDs, though gari frying is a light task. Specific discomforts in the body were detailed and highest in the trunk. Risk factors include repetition, static work and contact stress. S posture ranked highest in MSD risks, ABSS the lowest hence the preferred posture. A new ITGM has evolved to widen and diversify small-scale rural and informal women s income-earning opportunities. Appropriate technology of this kind, adopting ABSS, is recommended in similar activities. ····· 10361114013

Analysis of Bearing Support System of a Steam Turbine

für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Bearing support system of a steam turbine is a complex structure. The performance of steam turbine not only depends on the rotor and stator, but also on the stability and support extended by the support system. This analysis highlights the advantage of solid modeling of complex structures. The static and dynamic responses of bearing support systems are obtained with three dimensional solid modeling approach. Usually the problems related to these systems are of sound and high vibrations. In turbo- generator setup, the main cause of vibrations is due to the fact that the geometric axis of rotation seldom coincides with the principle axis of inertia of rotating part, resulting in dynamic inaccuracies. Vibrations are caused by the lack of this concentricity are transmitted to these support systems. The first few natural frequencies are measured using Impact Hammer and Vibration Exciter methods. The results obtained with a PC based finite element analysis program are validated with the above experimental modal analysis methods. ····· 10361113966
