In the current study, a thermal model was used to investigate the effects of welding parameters on the distribution of temperature in wide gap aluminothermic rail welds. To solve the governing thermal equation, SUTCAST, a finite difference program (FDM) was employed while different aspects such as phase change and convective heat transfer in weld pool were taken into account in the numerical so...

In this research, the numerical and experimental analysis of the carbon fiber composite lattice conical structure has been performed to assess the buckling stability of the structure before and after the lateral impact. In the experimental analysis, the carbon fiber composite lattice conical structure was constructed with the winding method and using elastic molds and metal mandrel. In or...

formability of automotive friction stir welded twb (tailor welded blank) sheets isnumerically investigated in biaxial stretching based on hemispherical dome stretch (hds) test infour automotive sheets of aluminum alloy 6111-t4, 5083-h18, 5083-o and dp590 steel, havingdifferent thicknesses. the effects of the weld zone modeling and the thickness ratio on formabilityare evaluated. in order to car...

Effects of some important parameters like impactor effects, plug geometry and initiation points on bonding aluminum tubes to aluminum plugs were studied. The impact velocity and dynamic angle between tube and plug should be precisely managed to achieve an optimum bonding condition. A new explosive bonding technique with the use of two material impactors was proposed. Results are especially suit...

the formation of ice on a cold surface and its shape, play an important role in some of the various problems. the position of solid surface of ice accretion, its growth shape and the effect of liquid phase on it, are important parameters in the various applications. difficulty of analytic techniques and expensive of experimental methods encourage the numerical modeling procedures in the investi...

in this study, liquid-liquid extraction process in a kuhni extraction column was modeled and simulated. a non-equilibrium dynamic model was developed for modeling liquid-liquid extraction processes based on a rate-based model. the model equations are inclusive of partial and ordinary differential equations which were discretized in column height direction. the population balance model was used ...
