A general model of the equations of generalized thermoelasticity   for an infinite space weakened by a finite linear opening Mode-I crack is solving. The material is   homogeneous and has isotropic properties of elastic half space. The crack is subjected to prescribed temperature and stress distribution. The formulation is applied to generalized thermoelasticity theories, the Lord-Şhulman...

Fretting is a structural damage mechanism arising between two nominally clamped surfaces subjected to an oscillatory loading. A critical location for fretting induced darnage has been identified at the blade/disk and blade/damper interfaces of gas turbine engine turbomachinery and space propulsion components. The hightemperature, high-frequency loading environment seen by these components lead ...

In this paper an efficient approach to simulate thermal stresses due to frictional heating of disc brakes is presented. In the approach thermal and stress analysis are performed sequentially. The frictional heat analysis is based on the Eulerian method, which requires significantly low computational time as compared to the Lagrangian approach. Complete three-dimensional geometries of a disc and...

The nose is the front line defender of the respiratory system and is rich with mechanoreceptors, thermoreceptors, and nerve endings. A time-dependent computational model of transport through nasal models of a healthy human has been used to analyze the fields of physical stresses that may develop at the air-wall interface of the nasal mucosa. Simulations during quiet breathing revealed wall shea...

after springs production, different residual stresses are created in the inner and outer surfaces of spring wires. some of these stresses for example compressive residual stresses are useful and some are harmful. the effects of vareation of these stresses are caused spring relaxation and decrising in their free length when they are loaded intermittently. for review this phenomena in this resear...

Direct metal SLS processes use a high power laser beam to selectively fuse fully metallic powder to directly produce functional metal components or tooling. As a thermal dynamic process, it inevitably causes thermal stresses, stress-induced deformations and cracking. Understanding these is very important in controlling residual stresses and stress-induced deformations. In this research, the res...
