The Impact

This study intents to scrutinize the impact of ferrofluid in the presence of couple stress for longitudinally rough porous circular stepped plates. The influence of longitudinal surface roughness is developed using the stochastic model of Christensen and Tonder for nonzero mean, variance and skewness. Neuringer-Roseinweig model is adopted for the influence of ferrofluid. The couple stress effect is characterized by Stoke’s micro continuum theory. The modified Reynolds’ type equation is stochastically averaged and solved by no-slip boundary conditions. The closed form solutions for load bearing capacity and film pressure are obtained as a function of different parameters and plotted graphically. It is perceived that the load capacity gets elevated owing to the combined influence of magnetization and couple stress when the proper choice of roughness parameters (negatively skewed, standard deviation) is in place. Porosity and roughness (positively skewed) adversely affect bearing’s performance. The graphical and tabular analysis shows that there is a significant growth in load bearing capacity compared to the conventional lubricant case.

Purpose This paper aims to present a detailed analysis to explore the various properties of non-Newtonian couple stress lubricants between parallel porous plates. Design/methodology/approach With reference to the theories based on micro-continuum analysis, a non-linear, non-Newtonian Reynolds type equation is arrived. The closed form solutions obtained clearly indicate the changes in pressure, load bearing capacity and response time because of variation in viscosity of couple stress fluid. Findings It is observed that the viscosity variation factor greatly influences the change in pressure, load carrying capacity and squeezing time. Originality/value It is observed that the nature of lubricants with suitable additives greatly helps in overcoming the adverse effect because of porous surface. Reynolds type equation is analysed using appropriate boundary conditions. The expression for pressure distribution arrived at in turn leads to the analysis of load bearing capacity and response time.

The Impact

In view of development and repair costs, support of structures is imperative. Several factors, for example, design and calculation errors, absence of appropriate installation, change of structures application, exhaustion, seismic tremor, fire and natural conditions diminish their strength. In such cases, structures have need of rehabilitation and restoration to achieve their original performance. One of the most up to date materials for retrofitting is carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) that can provide an amount of restriction to postpone buckling of thin steel walls. This paper provides a numerical and experimental investigation on CFRP strengthened short steel tubes with initial horizontal and vertical deficiency under compression. Ten square and circular specimens were tested to study effects of the following parameters: (1) position of deficiency, horizontal or vertical; (2) tube shape, square or circular; (3) CFRP strengthening. In the experiments, axial static loading was gradually applied and for the numerical study three-dimensional (3D) static nonlinear analysis method using ABAQUS software was performed. The results show that deficiency reduces load-bearing capacity of steel columns and the impact of horizontal deficiency is higher than the impact of vertical deficiency, in both square and circular tubes. Use of CFRP materials for strengthening of short steel columns with initial deficiency indicates that fibers play a considerable role on increasing load bearing capacity, reducing stress at the damage location, preventing deformation caused by deficiency and delaying local buckling. Both numerical and experimental outcomes are in good agreement, which underlines the accuracy of the models adopted.

The Impact

The use of high strength concrete (HSC) in multi-story buildings has become increasingly popular. Selection of HSC over normal strength concrete (NSC) allows for reducing the dimensions of the columns sections. However, this reduction has consequences on the structural performance in case of fire, as smaller cross sections lead to faster temperature increase in the section core. Besides, HSC experiences higher rates of strength loss with temperature and a higher susceptibility to spalling than NSC. The fire performance of a column can thus be affected by selecting HSC over NSC. This research performs a comparison of the fire performance of HSC and NSC columns, based on numerical simulations by finite element method. The thermal and structural analyses of the columns are conducted with the software SAFIR®. The variation of concrete strength with temperature for the different concrete classes is adopted from Eurocode. Different configurations are compared, including columns with the same load bearing capacity and columns with the same cross section. The relative loss of load bearing capacity during the fire is found to be more pronounced for HSC columns than for NSC columns. The impact on fire resistance rating is discussed. These results suggest that consideration of fire loading limits the opportunities for use of HSC, especially when the objective is to reduce the dimensions of the columns sections.

The Relationship

Load-bearing capacity and characteristic forms of destruction of furniture joints made with rastex 15 and P-10 clamex fasteners. The study tested the relationship between the load and angular deflection in furniture joints. The tests were carried out for two types of fasteners and five types of materials: chipboard, MDF, hardwood plywood, glued pine boards and glued oak boards. The furniture joint samples contained two fasteners preloaded only with a bending moment (without application of shear forces). The results were converted per single fastener specifying: its maximal load capacity, 50 mrad (2.9°) limit deflection and rigidity coefficient. It was found that rigidity is a better structural property of the tested joint types than their load capacity. As far as rigidity is concerned, the most durable is the combination of oak glued board – rastex 15 fastener (13.2 Nm bending moment per fastener), while the least durable combination is chipboard – clamex P-10 fastener (4.8 Nm bending moment per fastener). Photographic documentation of damaged furniture joint samples was prepared and analysed. In case of chipboard and MDF combinations (where the load is determined by the combined material), the combined boards suffer a disastrous damage, while in combinations of plywood boards and pine or oak glued boards, (where the capacity is determined by the fastener), both clamex P10 and rastex 15 fasteners are damaged.

Preliminary Examination

A preliminary examination of the bearing indicates that it is not capable of hydrodynamic action as the fluid film is parallel in the direction of motion. However, in practice it has been found that the bearing can support considerable loads. Earlier papers by the authors have examined the proposal of Shaw and Strang that the inertia of the lubricant could account for the load capacity of the bearing. This contention was rejected by the authors, and after other possible explanations had been investigated it was concluded that thermal distortion was the most likely cause of the load-bearing capacity. In this paper recent work will be reported which supports this proposal. The analysis of fluid inertia effects is summarized for a continuous hemispherical seat whose surface is disturbed only by the central lubricant supply hole (the grooveless case). The paper also presents experimental results and an approximate analysis of the thermal distortion for a hydrosphere seat with four lubricant grooves running from the supply hole to the equator along longitudinal lines.

The Press

Interference fit joints have been widely used in many engineering constructions, in particular in electric motors. It is of particular importance to calculate the load capacity of press-fit joints, especially in the overload ranges of construction to estimate the safety factor. The article presents a FEM numerical simulation of pressing the shaft into the hub, taking into account various types of fits. The results of numerical simulations presented in the article were positively verified with the MTS measuring device, which confirmed the correctness of the numerical model. So far, the load-bearing capacity of press-fit joints has been calculated from Lame’s formulas. The results of the load capacity of the joints obtained by the FEM simulation were compared with the results obtained from Lame’s formula. The comparison shows that when designing interference fit joints, attention should be paid to the fact that the press-in process, depending on the type of fit, may be elastic-plastic. Plastic deformations in the contact zone of the joint affect its load-bearing capacity. Therefore, the design of press-fit joints should not be based on Lame’s formulas, which do not take into account the range of plastic work of the material.

The oil film have many excellences such as bigger load bearing capacity, longer life, wider velocity range, lower friction etc. The traditional design method is experience test. Even the design parameters could meet the application requirements, but they can not exert the best performance of the oil film bearing. The relationship between load bearing capacity and materials, lubricants, design parameters and structural characteristics of oil film bearing was analysed. To improve the load capacity and run at the optimal state, the objective function was built to optimize the main parameters. Optimization results showed that the load bearing capacity has been greatly improved.

Many methods have been developed in order to study the impact behavior of solids and structures. Two common methods are finite element and experimental method. The nonlinear finite element method is one the most effective methods of predicting the behavior of RC beams from zero-load to failure and its fracture, yield and ultimate strengths. The advantage of this method is its ability to make this prediction for all sections of the assessed RC beam and all stages of loading. This paper compares the experimental results obtained for a RC frame with the numerical results calculated by ABAQUS software, and plots both sets of results as hysteresis–displacement diagrams. This comparison shows that the numerical FEM implemented via ABAQUS software produce valid and reliable results for load bearing capacity of RC frames subjected to cyclic loads, and therefore has significant cost and time efficiency advantages over the alternative approach

Introduction. This paper presents the results of an assessment of the impact of fire on the bearing capacity of the ordinary concrete, to be taken into account in the rehabilitation of fire-damaged reinforced concrete structures in Burundi. Materials and methods. Experimental samples of the ordinary concrete made respectively of coarse river aggregates and crushed coarse quarry aggregates were prepared and subjected to different heating temperatures (250, 350, 450, 600 and 900 °C) simulating the fire. After natural cooling, experimental samples were subjected to compression test; and diagrams showing the loss of the load-bearing capacity of the ordinary concrete used in reinforced concrete structures in Burundi were drawn. Results. Negative impact of the fire on the load-bearing capacity of the ordinary concrete occurs above of 350 °C of heating temperature. Concrete made of crushed coarse quarry aggregates loses 50 and 78 % of its bearing capacity at around 525 and 900 °C of heating temperature, respectively. Similarly, concrete made of coarse river aggregates loses 50 and 70 % of its load-bearing capacity respectively at 600 and 900 °C of heating temperature. An evaluation curve of the after-fire bea­ring capacity of the concrete used in reinforced concrete structures in Burundi is established. Conclusions. The negative impact of the fire on the load-bearing capacity of the ordinary concrete occurs above of 350 °C of heating temperature. Concretes made of crushed coarse quarry aggregates and concrete made of coarse river aggregates lose 50 % of its bearing capacity at around 525 and 600 °C of heating temperature respectively. Knowing the heating temperature that the fire-damaged reinforced concrete structure has undergone is indispensable in deciding on its demolition or rehabilitation.

The paper presents a functionality investigation of the key dam elements based on finite element analysis. A detailed analysis of filtration processes, dam strength, and the surrounding rock mass was conducted. Dam elements whose potential damage could jeopardize the normal functioning of the embankment dam have been identified. A particular emphasis was placed on the analysis of dam elements that have been identified as weak points. A numerical analysis of the impact of individual grout curtain zone failure on leakage under the dam body, a strength analysis of the overflow section, as well as the analysis of the slope stability that can compromise the functioning of the spillway have been performed. To analyze the partial stability of individual structural elements, a new measure of local stability was introduced as the remaining load-bearing capacity. As a case study, the Zavoj dam, which is a part of the Pirot reservoir system in the Republic of Serbia, was used. Investigation revealed that local damage to the grout curtain will not significantly increase leakage under the dam body, the overflow section is one of the most robust elements of the dam, but the slope above the spillway can compromise the functioning of the overflow and thus the safety of the entire dam. Based on the analysis of the results of the remaining load-bearing capacity, the dependence of the spillway capacity on earthquake intensity has been defined. The established relationship represents a surrogate model for further assessment of dynamic resilience of the complex multipurpose reservoir system, within the scope of the advanced reservoir system management.
