In Situ Stress Determination Based on Acoustic Image Logs and Borehole Measurements in the In-Adaoui and Bourarhat Hydrocarbon Fields, Eastern Algeria

open access: yesEnergies, 2023
The study of in situ stress from image logs is a key factor for understanding regional stresses and the exploitation of hydrocarbon resources. This work presents a comprehensive geomechanical analysis of two eastern Algerian hydrocarbon fields to infer ...

A Comparative Study of Gradient Descent Method and a Novel Non-Gradient Method for Structural Shape Optimization [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematical, Engineering and Management Sciences, 2022
Motivated by the works on non-gradient techniques in the domain of shape optimization of the structure, the present work intends to suggest a novel non-gradient procedure for shape optimization of structures and compare it to an existing gradient-based ...

Stress Gradient Effects on Notched Composite Failure Using a Local-Global Approach [PDF]

open access: yes45th AIAA/ASME/ASCE/AHS/ASC Structures, Structural Dynamics & Materials Conference, 2004
Micromechanics based analysis to predict damage initiation in compressively loaded symmetric notched multidirectional laminates under remote uniaxial loading is described. A novel hybrid local-global finite element method in conjunction with the commercial code ABAQUS is used to solve the governing system of equations.

The Influence of Temperature Variations on Rigid Pavement Concrete Slabs

open access: yesJournal of the Civil Engineering Forum, 2023
This research aims to assess the effect of temperature gradient developed within the concrete slab of rigid pavement, and to investigate its impact when incorporated with the traffic load, and the heat transfer pattern.

A Novel Estimation Approach of Pressure Gradient and Haemodynamic Stresses as Indicators of Pathological Aortic Flow Using Subvoxel Modelling [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, 2021
The flow downstream from aortic stenoses is characterised by the onset of shear-induced turbulence that leads to irreversible pressure losses. These extra losses represent an increased resistance that impacts cardiac efficiency. A novel approach is suggested in this study to accurately evaluate the pressure gradient profile along the aorta centreline ...

Hygro-Thermal Vibrations of Porous FG Nano-Beams Based on Local/Nonlocal Stress Gradient Theory of Elasticity

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2021
In this manuscript the dynamic response of porous functionally-graded (FG) Bernoulli–Euler nano-beams subjected to hygro-thermal environments is investigated by the local/nonlocal stress gradient theory of elasticity.

Ability of multiaxial fatigue criteria accounting for stress gradient effect for surface defective material

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
New high strength steels are widely used nowadays in many industrial areas as in automotive industry. These steels are more resistant and provide higher fatigue limits than latter ones but they are also more sensible to small defects.
