A Workflow to Accelerate Microstructure‐Sensitive Fatigue Life Predictions

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces a workflow to accelerate predictions of microstructure‐sensitive fatigue life. Results from frameworks with varying levels of simplification are benchmarked against published reference results. The analysis reveals a trade‐off between accuracy and model complexity, offering researchers a practical guide for selecting the optimal ...

Cost monotonicity, consistency and minimum cost spanning tree games [PDF]

, 2002
We propose a new cost allocation rule for minimum cost spanning tree games. The new rule is a core selection and also satisfies cost monotonicity. We also give characterization theorems for the new rule as well as the much-studied Bird allocation.

Numerical Modeling of Tank Cars Carrying Hazardous Materials With and Without Composite Metal Foam

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Large‐scale puncture models consisting of hazardous materials (HAZMATs) tank car with protective steel–steel composite metal foam (S–S CMF) are solved numerically. Tank car plate with added 10.91–13.33 mm thick S–S CMF layer does not puncture. Protective S–S CMF absorbs impact energy, reduces plate deformation, and prevents shear bands formation ...

Stochastic ordering of Pólya random variables and monotonicity of the Bernstein–Stancu operator for a negative parameter

Journal of Inequalities and Applications, 2019
In the present paper, we prove that the probabilities of the Pólya urn distribution (with negative replacement) satisfy a monotonicity property similar to that of the binomial distribution.

Numerical Exploration of Thermal Shock Resistance in MgO–C Refractories

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A mesostructure‐resolved numerical framework is developed to evaluate the thermal shock resistance of MgO–C refractories. By modeling interface debonding under rapid temperature changes and introducing a modified thermal shock parameter that accounts for mesocracks, the study shows how graphite content and aggregate size influence thermal shock ...

Querying OWL 2 QL and Non-monotonic Rules [PDF]

, 2011
Answering (conjunctive) queries is an important reasoning task in Description Logics (DL), hence also in highly expressive ontology languages, such as OWL. Extending such ontology languages with rules, such as those expressible in RIF-Core, and further with nonmonotonic rules, integrating default negation as described in the RIF-FLD, yields an even ...

High‐Temperature Nanoindentation of Metals: Assessing Thermal Drift, Frame Compliance, and Chemical Composition Effects on the Reported Mechanical Properties

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Do not let thermal drift and instrument artifacts deceive high‐temperature nanoindentation results. We compare classical Oliver–Pharr and automatic image recognition analyses across steels and a Ni alloy to quantify these effects. Accounting for artifacts reveals systematic softening with temperature, while Cr and Ni additions boost resistance ...

Decreasing property of ratio of two logarithmic expressions involving tangent function

Mathematical and Computer Modelling of Dynamical Systems
In this article, the authors review three proofs of the decreasing property of the ratio of two logarithmic expressions. With the help of the monotonicity rule for the ratio of two differentiable functions, the authors provide an alternative proof of the

Linguistic Reasoning Petri Nets Using q-Rung Orthopair Fuzzy Linguistic Sets and Weighted Ordered Weighted Averaging Operators

IEEE Access, 2019
Fuzzy Petri nets (FPNs) are an important tool for knowledge representation and reasoning in the rule-based expert system. Recently, various fuzzy sets and linguistic models have been introduced into FPNs to improve its ability in handling imprecise ...
