Probing the buckling of pressurized spherical shells

Pedro Miguel Nunes Pereira de Almeida Reis, Dong Yan, Arefeh Abbasi

The prediction of the critical buckling conditions of shell structures is plagued by imperfection sensitivity. Non-destructive testing through point-load probing has been recently proposed to map the stability landscape of cylindrical shells. However, the ...

The safety challenge of river diversion during construction of dams

Anton Schleiss

The appropriate design of a river diversion system during construction of dam is an essential task since dramatic consequences in view of cost and time overrun may be involved. After a short outline of the different methods of river diversion and its main ...

Direct measurement of drainage curves in infiltration of SiC particle preforms: influence of interfacial reactivity

Andreas Mortensen, Ludger Weber, Maryam Bahraini Hasani

We present dynamic measurement of drainage curves in two systems having relevance to metal matrix composite processing, namely SiC/Al and SiC/Al-12.2at%Si. Data show that liquid/solid chemical reactions that cause a lowering of the contact angle do indeed ...
