End-to-end automated application design and deployment poses a significant technical challenge. With increasing scale and complexity of IT systems and the manual handling of existing scripts and configuration files for application deployment that makes them increasingly error-prone and brittle, this problem has become more acute. Even though design tools have been used to automated system desig...

This paper describes a test setup and methodology for centrifuge modeling of energy pile pullout from saturated soft clay, with the goal understanding how heating improves interface shear strength through thermal consolidation. A kaolinite clay layer was first consolidated outside within cylindrical container an inner diameter 551 mm using hydraulic piston to reach thickness 220–240 then permit...

In this paper, dissimilar resistance spot welding of AISI 1075 eutectoid steel to AISI 201 stainless steel is investigated experimentally. For this purpose, the experiments are designed using response surface methodology and based on four-factor, five-level central composite design. The effects of process parameters such as welding current, welding time, cooling time and electrode force are inv...
