Abstract This paper continues previous research performed by the authors on the modelling of dissimilar welded joints with varying clad thicknesses. This study aims to validate the use of a clad plate model as a replacement to the previous clad pipe model. To fulfill the hypothesis of the study, possible deformation or angular shrinkages occurring at weld joints have been simulated using a commercial finite element software. In parallel, angular shrinkages have been validated using the experimental data with the underlying concept of Gaussian transformation of plates into pipes. The welding of the two dissimilar materials has been carried out in-house with the aid of a Tungsten Arc weld with dynamic measurement of the temperature profile in the vicinity areas of the welding track using high temperature thermocouples. It was discovered that for each deformation angle of 11.5°, 22.75°, 40° and 45°, there exists shrinkage of the order of 0.01mm. Transient temperature curves have been generated for different cladding thicknesses (of stainless steel and mild steel). Comparison of the measured data versus the simulation results shows close agreement.

Abstract This paper continues the research previously done by authors on computer simulation of the dissimilar welded joints with varying clad thicknesses using numerical methods. For different cladding thicknesses comprising of stainless steel and mild steel, stress curves have been generated. The welding of the two dissimilar materials has been carried out in-house with the aid of a tungsten arc weld with dynamic measurement of the temperature profile in vicinity of the welding track using high temperature thermocouples. Comparison of the experimentally measured stresses from literature versus the simulation results shows close agreement.

Thermal analyses of girth welded joints of clads have been carried out using 2D and 3D finite element analysis (FEA) by using the engineering software Abaqus v.2016 (Dassault Systèmes). Transient temperature curves have been generated for different cladding thicknesses (of stainless steel and mild steel). The welding of the two dissimilar materials has been carried out in-house with the aid of a Tungsten Arc weld with dynamic measurement of the temperature profile in the vicinity areas of the welding track using high temperature thermocouples. Comparison of the measured temperature versus the simulation results shows close agreement.

We develop a method to model the microwave transmissivity of row crops that explicitly accounts for their periodic nature as well as multiple scattering. We hypothesize that this method could eventually be used to improve satellite retrieval of soil moisture and vegetation optical depth in agricultural regions. The method is characterized by unit cells terminated by periodic boundary conditions and Floquet port excitations solved using commercial software. Individual plants are represented by vertically oriented dielectric cylinders. We calculate canopy transmissivity, reflectivity, and loss in terms of S-parameters. We validate the model with analytical solutions and illustrate the effect of canopy scattering. Our simulation results are consistent with both simulated and measured data published in the literature.

To investigate the flexural bearing capacity in negative moment region of composite beams，we examined different ends constraint components. The modeling of the beam ends connected framework has been done by the finite element software ANSYS. The concrete thickness, slab reinforcement ratio and different component at the edge of the composite framework in the negative moment region are taken into account. The performance during the process of deformation and failure are got by nonlinear analysis. The flexural bearing capacity was reported, with the negative moment region of the composite frame beam, it revealed great differences when the beams are different component. Simulation results show that the concrete thickness take the biggest influence on bearing capacity. The results showed the behaviors of the composite frame beams are different with positive moment region, and calculation based on current code for design of steel structure (GB50017-2003) would be a big deviation.

The Cost

Renewable energy hybrid systems give a good solution in isolated sites, in the Algerian desert; wind and solar potentials are considerably perfect for a combination in a renewable energy hybrid system to satisfy local village electrical load and minimize the storage requirements, which leads to reduce the cost of the installation. For a good sizing, it is essential to know accurately the solar potential of the installation area also wind potential at the same height where wind electric generators will be placed. In this work, we optimize a completely autonomous PV-wind hybrid system and show the techno-economical effects of the height of the wind turbine on the sizing of the hybrid system. We also compare the simulation results obtained from using wind speed measured data at 10 meters and 40 meters of height with the ones obtained from using wind speed extrapolation on HOMER software.

In order to improve the accuracy of rice transplanter model parameters, an online parameter identification algorithm for the rice transplanter model based on improved particle swarm optimization (IPSO) algorithm and extended Kalman filter (EKF) algorithm was proposed. The dynamic model of the rice transplanter was established to determine the model parameters of the rice transplanter. Aiming at the problem that the noise matrices in EKF algorithm were difficult to select and affected the best filtering effect, the proposed algorithm used the IPSO algorithm to optimize the noise matrices of the EKF algorithm in offline state. According to the actual vehicle tests, the IPSO-EKF was used to identify the cornering stiffness of the front and rear tires online, and the identified cornering stiffness value was substituted into the model to calculate the output data and was compared with the measured data. The simulation results showed that the accuracy of parameter identification for the rice transplanter model based on the IPSO-EKF algorithm was improved, and established an accurate rice transplanter model.

Simulation Results

The thermo-mechanical fatigue (TMF) of power plant components is caused by the cyclic operation of power plant. A time-dependent plasticity model can be used to simulate the component response under cyclic thermo-mechanical loading. This paper is concerned with the modelling of thermo-mechanical behaviour of power plant steel under various loading conditions. Fully-reversed, strain-controlled tests were conducted on a parent material of P91 steel at high temperatures in order to determine material constants. A unified, Chaboche viscoplasticity model, was used to model the TMF behaviour of the steel. The multiaxial form of the Chaboche constitutive equations have been implemented in the finite element software and validated by comparing to experimental data. Simulation results have been compared with the results of anisothermal cyclic testing in order to validate the performance of the model in cyclic temperature conditions. The model’s performance under multiaxial stress conditions was investigated by testing and simulating the notched bar specimen under load-controlled conditions.
