in this paper, an experimental and numerical investigation into the effect of the hoop welding in metallic pressure vessel is presented. in the experimental manufacturing, hoop welding was used to attach the cylindrical body of the vessel, and the effect of welding into stress and strain distribution is carried out. experimental strains are obtained by using the strain gauges attached to predet...

A finite element scheme for simulation of welding residual stresses is presented in this paper. Detailed thermal and residual stress analyses for butt-welded and socket-welded pipes are performed using ANSYS and ABAQUS. The calculated distribution of axial stress and hoop stress at welded joint are validated against experimental results. Furthermore, residual stress relaxation under high amplit...

In order to achieve integrated condition in the girth welding of high pressure natural gas transmission pipelines, the weld zones and its surrounding area should have good mechanical properties. Residual stresses are an important defect especially in the girth welding of the pipeline. In this study, two API X70 steel pipes (with spiral seam weld) of 56 inches outside diameter and 0.780 inch wal...

We have studied the residual stresses associated with the PIGMA welding of two right circular beryllium rings. Using spatially resolved neutron diffraction techniques (resolution of 4.5 mm) we have determined residual strains in the beryllium base metal using the interplanar spacings of the (1010) , ) 0 2 11 ( and ) 3 1 10 ( crystallographic planes as a function of axial distance from the weld ...

In this paper, we investigate some results on hoop algebras and hyper hoop-algebras. We construct a hoop and a hyper hoop on any countable set. Then using the notion of the fundamental relation we define the fundamental hoop and we show that any hoop is a fundamental hoop and then we construct a fundamental hoop on any non-empty countable set.

Swine producers in the United States who are looking for lower cost structures in which to raise pigs have increasingly turned to so-called hoop barns or hooped shelters as facilities in which to house grow-finish swine. Hoop barns have been rapidly adopted. For example, by 2001, Iowa farmers had erected more than 2,100 hoop barns for finishing pigs. Hoop barns can be used successfully to finis...

In this paper, by considering the notion of hyper hoop-algebras, we define the concepts of (strong) regular relations on hyper hoop-algebras and investigate some properties of them. Then we construct a quotient (hyper) hoop-algebra by a (strong)regular relation on hyper hoop-algebras. Finally, we define the notion of maximal filter and we investigate the relation between quotient simple hyper h...

Hollow metal and composite baseball and softball bats exhibit two types of vibrational modes, bending modes and hoop modes. The hoop modes are unique to hollow bats and involve only a radial vibration of the barrel of the bat. The lowest frequency hoop mode is responsible for the both the "ping" sound of a metal bat and the so-called "trampoline effect." Modal analysis is used to determine the ...

The use of bedded hoop barns in finishing systems for beef cattle has not been widely researched. In this management system, beef cattle are confined to hoop barns throughout finishing, and bedding is used to absorb animal waste, which results in minimal effluent. The objective of this study was to compare the performance and carcass characteristics of finishing beef steers (n = 1,428) managed ...
