Comparative study on microstructure evolution and failure mechanisms of ordinary and refurbished EB-PVD TBC under cyclic oxidation

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Ceramics, 2023
Refurbishment of thermal barrier coating (TBC) has become a valuable technique to prolong the service life of high-temperature components. This study investigates the effect of the refurbishment process (coating removal and recoating) on the ...

Services and services innovation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Evolutionary Economics, 2008
We have witnessed a dramatic transformation of the US and western European economies in just twenty years. Built on manufacturing, today these are indubitably services-based economies. The transformation raises a number of important issues for economists, and for evolutionary economists in particular for they have long highlighted the importance of ...

Reliability Testing of Wind Farm Devices Based on the Mean Time between Failures (MTBF)

open access: yesEnergies, 2023
Among the most valuable types of renewable energy available today is wind energy. The reliability of WF systems must be regularly evaluated at every stage of their “life,” from design to operation, if a wind farm energy system is to be effective and ...

CA-Chitosan effect on the time dependent serviceability of jute geotextile under unpaved roads

open access: yesJournal of Natural Fibers, 2022
Biodegradable jute geotextiles (JGTs) are an effective reinforcing material for unpaved roads, but its serviceability is limited because of faster microbial degradation. Different methods are in use to improve the serviceability of jute geotextiles.

Flexural Performance of Reinforced Concrete Members with Steel Bars

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
The use of high-tension bars to strengthen flexural members is gaining increasing interest. However, the applicability of current standards to such bars is uncertain, because there may not be a definite yield strength and it may be unclear whether the ...

Effects of Vertical Ground Motion on Pedestrian-Induced Vibrations of Footbridges: Numerical Analysis and Machine Learning-Based Prediction

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
Current codes and guidelines for the dynamic design of footbridges often only specify the pedestrian-induced excitations. However, earthquakes may occur during the passing stage of pedestrians in earthquake-prone regions.

The Service Behind the Service: Sensegiving in the Service Economy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In this modest essay, we reflect on the crucial role of sensegiving, and hence sensemaking, in the creation of IT-enabled service encounters. “Creation” has two meanings here: (1) the design of repeatable (reproducible) IT-enabled services, and (2) the on-going coproduction of IT-enabled service events by service providers and recipients.

Challenges Of ACI 318-19 Revisions To Flexural Design Of RC Beams Considering Higher-strength Reinforcements

open access: yesJournal of Applied Science and Engineering, 2022
For flexural design, the 2019 Building Code of the American Concrete Institute (ACI 318-19) revisions allows the use of high-strength reinforcements and concretes as well as new reinforcement strain limits for reinforced concrete (RC) structures.
