Characterization of contact condition in a flange connection by longitudinal waves

open access: yesMechanical Engineering Journal, 2018
The integrity of flange joints is critical in all pipe systems. To test this integrity, an ultrasonic method characterizing the condition of the flange joint would be a vital tool. In this study, we analyzed the contact conditions on a metal/gasket/metal

Numerical treatment of seismic accelerograms and of inelastic seismic structural responses using harmonic wavelets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The harmonic wavelet transform is employed to analyze various kinds of nonstationary signals common in aseismic design. The effectiveness of the harmonic wavelets for capturing the temporal evolution of the frequency content of strong ground motions is ...

Dielectric Barrier Discharge Plasma Deoxidation of Natively Oxide Layer of Copper Powders in a Fluidized Bed

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This paper presents a novel approach to reducing oxide layers on metal powders using low‐temperature hydrogen dielectric barrier discharge plasmas at atmospheric pressure. Unlike conventional hydrogen‐plasma reductions, the powders do not contact the plasma directly.

The estimation of geoacoustic properties from broadband acoustic data, focusing on instantaneous frequency techniques [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The compressional wave velocity and attenuation of marine sediments are fundamental to marine science. In order to obtain reliable estimates of these parameters it is necessary to examine in situ acoustic data, which is generally broadband.

Surface Tension Measurement of Ti‐6Al‐4V by Falling Droplet Method in Oxygen‐Free Atmosphere

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
In this article, the temperature‐dependent surface tension of free falling, oscillating Ti‐6Al‐4V droplets is investigated in both argon and monosilane doped, oxygen‐free atmosphere. Droplet temperature and oscillation are captured with one single high‐speed camera, and the surface tension is calculated with Rayleigh's formula.

Phase Field Failure Modeling: Brittle‐Ductile Dual‐Phase Microstructures under Compressive Loading

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The approach by Amor and the approach by Miehe and Zhang for asymmetric damage behavior in the phase field method for fracture are compared regarding their fitness for microcrack‐based failure modeling. The comparison is performed for the case of a dual‐phase microstructure with a brittle and a ductile constituent.

An Adaptive Chirp Mode Decomposition-Based Method for Modal Identification of Time-Varying Structures

open access: yesMathematics
Modal parameters are inherent characteristics of civil structures. Due to the effect of environmental factors and ambient loads, the physical and modal characteristics of a structure tend to change over time.

Estimating instantaneous frequency of multicomponent signal using optimization strategy in fractional domain

open access: yesElectronics Letters, 2023
Estimating instantaneous frequencies (IFs) overlapped in both time and frequency domains is an important issue in time‐frequency (TF) analysis. In this letter, the TF information of the signal in fractional domain is combined with an optimization ...

Power spectrum slope confounds estimation of instantaneous oscillatory frequency

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2022
Oscillatory neural dynamics are highly non-stationary and require methods capable of quantifying time-resolved changes in oscillatory activity in order to understand neural function.

Evaluation of Plasticity and Creep Parameters From Tensile Stress–Strain Data for a Range of Strain Rates

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This plot compares experimental tensile stress–strain curves (with 4 different strain rates) and corresponding modelled curves (obtained using the optimised sets of Voce and Miller–Norton parameter values shown). The inferred M‐N values, characterizing the creep, are very similar to those obtained via conventional creep testing.
