High‐Order Fiber Bragg Grating Corrosion Sensor Based on the Detection of a Local Surface Expansion
This paper presents a fiber optic sensor for the detection of corrosion processes that occur on metal surfaces. In the proposed sensor design, a sensing fiber with an inscribed high‐order Bragg grating is attached to the observed metal surface. A broadening of high‐order Bragg grating spectral characteristics is observed and used to detect small and ...

Extracting true stresses and strains from nominal stresses and strains in tensile testing
Abstract Seemingly a simple task, the extraction of the flow curve (true stress vs. true plastic strain) from nominal stresses and strains in standard tensile testing still has its unsolved points. This study addresses two of them: (i) in materials without yield point phenomenon (or generally in the region of homogeneous plastic deformation), the true ...

Seismic Response of a Platform-Frame System with Steel Columns [PDF]
Timber platform-frame shear walls are characterized by high ductility and diffuse energy dissipation but limited in-plane shear resistance. A novel lightweight constructive system composed of steel columns braced with oriented strand board (OSB) panels ...

More than 1200 heats are used so as to investigate the benefits of the powder lime injection in a 90 t electric arc furnace (EAF) and compared with the traditional addition of lime in lumps. Savings above expectations are observed for electric consumptions and lime charged, also reducing CO2 emissions for both the production of structural and special ...

Hot-dip-zinc-coating of prefabricated structural steel components [PDF]
This JRC-Scientific and Technical Report gives information from pre-normative research for methods to prevent liquid metal assisted cracking of prefabricated structural components during zinc-coating in the liquid zinc melt, that may impair the ...

A Laboratory-Scale Instrumented Forging Hammer as an Intermediate Strain Rate Testing Device [PDF]
Mechanical characterisation of metallic materials at intermediate strain rates is essential to calibrate and validate computational models for industrial applications such as high-speed forming processes i.e. hammer forging, blanking, forming, etc.

The numerical analysis of micro-damage evolution in damaged element with structural discontinuity
The numerical analysis of microdamage evolution in S235JR steel is presented in the paper. The simulation was performed basing on the Gurson-Tvergaard-Needleman material model which takes into consideration the influence of microdamage to the material ...
