We discuss an optimal control problem of laser surface hardening of steel which is governed by a dynamical system consisting of a semilinear parabolic equation and an ordinary differential equation with a non differentiable right hand side function f+. To avoid the numerical and analytic difficulties posed by f+, it is regularized using a monotone Heaviside function and the regularized problem ...

We deal with a one-dimensional coupled system of semi-linear reaction-diffusion equations in two a priori unknown moving phases driven by a non-local kinetic condition. The PDEs system models the penetration of gaseous CO2 in unsaturated cement-based porous materials (concrete). The main issue is that CO2 diffusion and fast reaction with Ca(OH)2 in concrete lead to a sudden drop of alkalinity n...

In this paper, our purpose is to calculate photon-matter interaction parameters of Ni-based alloys, Inconel-617 and Incoloy-800HT, which are the main candidates for high-temperature applications such as spacecraft, gas turbines, nuclear reactors rocket motors. The radiation attenuation buildup factors were obtained in a wide energy range by using Phy-X/PSD EpiXS softwares determine protection c...

Recycle Aggregate Concrete (RAC) is a common “green” product used for a variety of purposes, although the durability and strength of the material still need more research to adequately determine influences on these parameters. The failure pattern, punching bearing capacity, and deflection variation of wallboard of both ordinary concrete and RAC with various rebar reinforcement diameters and spa...

been arranged in such a way that it can be linked up with the private ror,ms to suit patients, who, subject to medical approval, desire to keep in touch .tlh their ordinary affairs. The block is built on a steel-work construction, and it is fire-pr,oof throughout. It is not intended that this newv block should compete wvith private nursing homes. A definite limit will be put on the type of pati...

Chloride induced corrosion of steel reinforcement is the main cause of deterioration of reinforced concrete marine structures. This paper investigates the relative performance of alternative repair options with respect to the deterioration of reinforced concrete bridge elements in marine environments. Focus is placed on the initiation phase of reinforcement corrosion. A laboratory study is desc...

In this study, we discussed the effects on the thermal comfort of super high-rise residences that how effected by the high thermal capacity structural components. We considered different building orientations, structures, and insulation methods. We used the dynamic simulation software THERB (simulation of the thermal environment of residential buildings). It can estimate the temperature, humidi...

At present, with the adjustment of the structure of the steel industry, the steel logistics industry is also engaged in integrating. Steel logistics resource integration is an important problem to be solved. Based on previous research on steel logistics resource integration, this paper proposes a new research perspective on steel logistics resources integration: supply-demand network of steel l...
