Plastic Shakedown Behavior and Deformation Mechanisms of Ti17 Alloy under Long Term Creep–Fatigue Loading

Metals
Ti17 alloy is mainly used to manufacture aero-engine discs due to its excellent properties such as high strength, toughness and hardenability. It is often subjected to creep–fatigue cyclic loading in service environments.

Pursuing patents for their own sake: How the investment discourse shapes patent quality and quantity

The Journal of World Intellectual Property, EarlyView.
Abstract Patent systems worldwide face criticisms over declining patent quality and increasing patent quantity. While most research focuses on strengthening examination rigour, this article turns attention to relatively underexplored patenting incentives.

Study on Cyclic Tensile Shakedown Behaviour of Flexible Risers Considering Winding Process

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Flexible risers are subjected to significant tensile loads during manufacturing, installation, and in-service phases, and they experience multiple cyclic tensile loads throughout their entire service life.

Epistocracy and the Commitment Problem

Philosophy &Public Affairs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The epistocracy debate has turned largely on the character of the electorate—what voters know, whether competence filters can be designed well, and what filtered selection produces. Another strand has focused on the legitimacy of epistocratic justifications. I ask instead about the equilibrium effects of the institution.

The microstructure and texture effects on fatigue behavior of AZ31B magnesium induced by pre-strain along radial direction

Journal of Materials Research and Technology
In this study, compressional pre-strain was conducted on fatigue samples extracted from the AZ31B rod along the radial direction (RD), leading to the alteration of microstructure and texture, of which the impact on ratcheting behavior and fatigue life ...

Ratcheting Behavior of Sensitized Non-Conventional Austenitic Stainless Steel [PDF]

, 2015
The aim of this investigation is to study the effect of ratcheting behavior on a sensitized non-conventional austenitic stainless steel. The metallurgical investigation of solution annealed as well as sensitized stainless steels were carried out in order

International commitments on climate‐friendly investment liberalisation: A green straitjacket?

Review of European, Comparative &International Environmental Law, EarlyView.
Abstract Meeting the objectives of the Paris Agreement will require considerable capital mobilisation. International investment agreements (IIAs) govern and promote financial flows. However, their alignment with international climate objectives has, thus far, either been non‐existent or insufficient.

Nonlinear Lamb wave for the assessment of ratcheting behavior in IF steel [PDF]

, 2017
This work demonstrates the use of nonlinear Lamb wave for characterizing the ratcheting behavior in interstitial free (IF) steel. Lamb wave has been used to measure the generated second harmonic component during ratcheting fatigue.

Testing the Assumptions of History‐Dependent Approaches to Regulation: Comparing Compliant Companies With Those That Transgress

Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Risk‐based approaches to regulatory governance are ubiquitous. One aspect of such approaches suggests regulators direct their attention towards companies that have already violated regulations. However, such approaches have made little use of available data to explore these companies, especially compared to companies that do not transgress ...

Plastic behavior and shakedown limit of defected pressurized pipe under cyclic bending moment

Journal of Engineering and Applied Science
Pipelines subjected to thermal or mechanical loads may fail due to plastic strain accumulation which leads to ratcheting. In this research, cyclic plastic behavior and shakedown limit are investigated experimentally and numerically for a defected ...
