The effect of wall thickness distribution on mechanical reliability and strength in unidirectional porous ceramics

open access: yesScience and Technology of Advanced Materials, 2016
Macroporous ceramics exhibit an intrinsic strength variability caused by the random distribution of defects in their structure. However, the precise role of microstructural features, other than pore volume, on reliability is still unknown.

A Machine Learning Evaluation of Maintenance Records for Common Failure Modes in PV Inverters

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
Inverters are a leading source of hardware failures and contribute to significant energy losses at photovoltaic (PV) sites. An understanding of failure modes within inverters requires evaluation of a dataset that captures insights from multiple ...

Influence of Acetylated Annealed Starch on the Release of β-Escin from the Anionic and Non-Ionic Hydrophilic Gels

open access: yesPharmaceutics, 2020
Naturally sourced products introduced to human nutrition and rediscovered for therapy include polysaccharides from potatoes. The starch may obtain unique properties via acetylation with acetic anhydride at 13 cm3/100 g of starch as the basic dose of ...

Aerodynamic Optimization of Trailing-Edge-Serrations for a Wind Turbine Blade Using Taguchi Modified Additive Model

open access: yesEnergies, 2023
For the rotor, achieving relatively high aerodynamic performance in specific wind conditions is a long-term goal. Inspired by the remarkable flight characteristics of owls, an optimal trailing edge serration design is investigated and proposed for a wind

Using weibull mixture distributions to model heterogeneous survival data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
In this article we use Bayesian methods to fit a Weibull mixture model with an unknown number of components to possibly right censored survival data. This is done using the recently developed, birth-death MCMC algorithm.

Bayesian reliability models of Weibull systems: State of the art

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science, 2012
In the reliability modeling field, we sometimes encounter systems with uncertain structures, and the use of fault trees and reliability diagrams is not possible.

Temperature dependence of dielectric breakdown of silicone-based dielectric elastomers

open access: yesInternational Journal of Smart and Nano Materials, 2020
A large number of insulation/dielectric failures in power systems are related to thermally-induced dielectrical breakdown, also known as ‘thermal breakdown’, at higher operating temperatures.
