A Numerical Study of the Lateral Load-Sharing Mechanism of the Pile Cap in a 3 × 3 Pile Group

open access: yesBuildings
This numerical study utilizes a validated Plaxis 3D model calibrated against full-scale field tests to investigate the lateral load-sharing mechanism of the pile cap in a 3 × 3 pile group under horizontal loading. Numerical simulations calibrated against

A circumferentially flanged tibial tray minimizes bone-tray shear micromotion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Aseptic loosening of the tibial component is the major complication of total knee arthroplasty. There is an association between early excessive shear micromotion between the bone and the tray of the tibial component and late aseptic loosening.

Influence of an Oxygen‐Free Atmosphere on Diamond‐Single‐Grain Scratching of Ti–6Al–4V

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Single‐grain scratching of Ti–6Al–4V is investigated under controlled, oxygen‐free, and ambient atmospheres using a novel experimental setup with in situ high‐speed imaging. The approach enables direct observation of chip formation and adhesion under suppressed oxidation.

Analysis of the Dynamic Active Earth Pressure from c-φ Backfill Considering the Amplification Effect of Seismic Acceleration

open access: yesApplied Sciences
This study extends the method of pseudo-dynamic analysis based on the Mononobe-Okabe (M-O) method by comprehensively incorporating the seismic acceleration response characteristics of backfill soil and the cohesive properties of the fill.

Towards Defect Phase Diagrams: From Research Data Management to Automated Workflows

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A research data management infrastructure is presented for the systematic integration of heterogeneous experimental and simulation data required for defect phase diagrams. The approach combines openBIS with a companion application for large‐object storage, automated metadata extraction, provenance tracking and federated data access, thereby supporting ...

Classical and numerical approaches to determining V-section band clamp axial stiffness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
V-band clamp joints are used in a wide range of applications to connect circular flanges, for ducts, pipes and the turbocharger housing. Previous studies and research on V-bands are either purely empirical or analytical with limited applicability on the ...

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

open access: yesAdvanced 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 ...

Effect of Thermal Load Caused by Tread Braking on Crack Propagation in Railway Wheels on Long Downhill Ramps

open access: yesLubricants
To investigate the propagation behavior of thermal cracks on the wheel tread under the conditions of long downhill ramps, a three-dimensional finite element model of a 1/16 wheel, including an initial thermal crack, was developed using the finite element
