TO make clear the reflection characteristics at fillet parts, the energy reflection coefficient from the fillets is measured. The fillet is composed of the same material as the structure. A semiconductor strain gauge is used to detect single stress pulses. Different from the conventional method where the energy reflection coefficient is the summation of the transfer function obtained by the Dis...

Abstract The factors affecting the fatigue life of radar structural parts and measures to improve are analyzed systematically. On this basis, stress concentration at right angle root low surface roughness was determined by means finite element simulation, simulated loading test, material performance which is main factor cracking. Risk analysis carried out simulate extreme support materials incr...

The stainless steel bipolar plate has received much attention due to the cost of graphite bipolar plates. Since the micro-channel of bipolar plates plays the role of fuel flow field, electric connector and fuel sealing, an investigation of the deep drawing process for stainless steel micro-channel arrays is reported in this work. The updated Lagrangian formulation, degenerated shell finite elem...

In this paper, root stress, manufacturing possibilities and limitations of standard nonstandard tooth fillet spur gears are examined. Nowadays, trochoidal is used the most as an economical trade-off between strength complexity. A disadvantage fillet, especially in with less than 17 teeth, undercutting which minimises root, introduces stress concentration, deteriorates meshing conditions. This s...

Increasing the combustion temperatures in a gas turbine engine to achieve higher efficiency and power output also results in high heat loads to turbine components downstream of the combustor. The challenge of adequately cooling the nozzle guide vane directly downstream of the combustor is compounded by a complex vortical secondary flow at the junction of the endwall and the airfoil. This flow t...

BACKGROUND The purpose of this article is to describe the indications, operative technique, outcomes, and systematic review of the literature on the reconstruction of patients with end-stage pressure ulcers using a fillet flap technique. In this technique, the femur, tibia, and fibula are removed from the thigh and leg, and the soft tissue is used as a pedicled, or free, myocutaneous flap for r...

Welded joints are a major component that is often responsible for causing a structure failure or for being the point at which fatigue cracking initiates and propagates. Despite tremendous research efforts, the understanding of fatigue behaviour is still limited, particularly for new techniques like laser hybrid welding. Beside a comprehensive state-of-the-art study, the paper presents a fatigue...
