Tubular bridge design has to deal with fatigue issues. The fatigue susceptibility of these bridges, composed of circular hollow section profiles welded together in K-joints, is mainly due to stress concentrations, to welding imperfections and to tensile re ...
The biomedical industry shows increasing interest in the joining of dissimilar metals, especially with the aim of developing devices that combine different mechanical and corrosive properties. As an example, nickel titanium shape memory alloys joined to st ...
Large scale tubular truss beams, approximately of 9 m long and 2 m high, were tested under constant amplitude fatigue loading. The beams were made out of circular hollow sections of steel S355, welded to form a uni-planar truss with K-joints, in a shape co ...
Welding processes are extensively used to assemble components in many manufacturing industries, such as aeronautics, construction, energy and automotive. To increase their productivity, constructors try to reduce manufacturing time. This involves for weldi ...
Since decades traditional friction welding methods are applied industrially to metal and thermoplastic synthetics. Research showed that for different applications this method is promising for wood too. The process does not necessitate any additional materi ...
FRP bridge decks offer several advantages compared with conventional concrete bridge decks, particularly their much lower weight, but also their resistance against corrosion as well as easier installation and maintenance. The poorly conceived methods avail ...
We attempted ultrasonic welding as a technique for the bonding of connectors to microfluidic devices. Different schemes of the method were explored based on different designs of the connectors to achieve a strong, minimal dead-volume connection. Results sh ...
Seeking light and transparent bridge designs, engineers and architects have found an efficient and artistic way to fulfill their requirements: steel tubular bridges. Like any other welded structure, the joints of this kind of bridge suffer from high tensil ...
Residual stress relief in ceramic-metal joints produced by active brazing depends primarily on the plastic response of the filler metal. A procedure for the production and mechanical characterization of bulk active filler alloy specimens is developed. In p ...
A critical aspect in the design of tubular bridges is the fatigue performance of the structural joints. Economic viability depends on it. Lower fatigue strength for joints with thicker failing members was observed in welded joints typical to the bridge app ...
