In order to design a safety valve with a high safety factor, on the basis of theoretical calculations and ANSYS analysis, stress analysis is performed on the key components of the new nuclear A48 safety valve under open and closed conditions to detect whether the safety valve fails. The natural frequency of the safety valve and the spring are respectively analyzed and tested for seismic performance. The spring parameters are calculated through spring design specifications to determine the method of spring failure calculation and analysis. A lateral deflection measurement bench was built to verify the correctness of the design method through experimental data and provide a reliable theoretical basis for the design of safety valves with high safety factors.

Reinforced concrete (RC) frame buildings are a widely used structural system around the world. These buildings are customarily designed through standard code-based procedures, which are well-suited to the workflow of design offices. However, these procedures typically do not aim for or achieve seismic performance higher than code minimum objectives. This article proposes a practical design method that improves the seismic performance of bare RC frame buildings, using only information available from elastic structural analysis conducted in standard code-based design. Four buildings were designed using the proposed method and the prescriptive approach of design codes, and their seismic performance is evaluated using three-dimensional nonlinear (fiber) models. The findings show that the seismic performance is improved with the proposed method, with reductions in the collapse fragility, higher deformation capacity, and greater overstrength. Furthermore, an economic analysis for a six-story building shows that these improvements come with only a 2% increase in the material bill, suggesting that the proposed method is compatible with current project budgets as well as design workflow. The authors also provide mathematical justification of the method.

This paper presents the innovative use of hot-rolled thickness-tapered mill products, longitudinally profiled (LP) plates, for the seismic performance of bridge bents of single and portal framed piers. The study involves the inelastic cyclic testing and numerical analysis of tested beam-columns and portal frames in order to evaluate the effects of tapering ratios of LP plates, penetration of yielding, and number of locally buckled panels on their structural ductility. A structural design method is proposed for the portal frames having LP panels under cyclic loadings.

Abstract:The cross sections for (n,x) reactions on samarium isotopes were measured at (d-T) neutron energies of 13.5 and 14.8 MeV with the activation technique. Samples were activated along with Nb and Al monitor foils to determine the incident neutron flux. Theoretical calculations of excitation functions were performed using the nuclear model codes TALYS-1.6 and EMPIRE-3.2 Malta with default parameters, at neutron energies varying from the reaction threshold to 20 MeV. The results were discussed and compared with experimental data found in the literature. At neutron energies 13.5 and 14.8 MeV, the cross sections of the

The geometry of overlapping tubular joints, the equations of intersection curves and the coordinate of the intersection point are introduced first. The variational method for simple tubular joints is extended to the stress analysis of tubular K-joints with overlap. The computer program is compiled. The stress concentration factor and the position of the hot spot of an overlapping joint are found. For the sake of proving the feasibility of our analysis and program, the computed results are compared with experimental data of our photoelastic experiment and other experiments.

Ecological composite wall as ecological composite wall structure of the main stress components, the seismic performance is ecological composite wall structure seismic performance evaluation system of the main content. Based on the grey system theory, the grey correlation analysis to the key parameters (the mouth of the cave, frame structure, height to width ratio) change ecological composite wall test results are analyzed, the key parameters on the ecological composite wall the influence law of seismic performance, for choosing wall structure design method to provide basis.

Our earlier pseudopotential calculations on electrons colliding with argon and krypton are extended to consider the elastic electron–helium scattering system. In this paper, we present detailed results for phase shifts, differential, total, and momentum-transfer cross sections for this system for incident electron energies in the range from 0 to 20 eV. These agree very well with existing experimental data and with other theoretical calculations.

Abstract This paper deals with the experimental study of dynamic transmission error of a gear pair. Two aspects of the experiment are discussed : 1) design of the test facility and data acquisition system and 2) comparison of transmission error and load distribution with experimental data. Several gears were tested under varying misalignments. A prediction program LDP (Load distribution Program) was used for theoretical calculations of dynamic transmission error.
